Re: [council] WG to Protect Rights


Chuck

Thanks for your note.

The follow up work has been going on behind the scenes with Dan Halloran and I working with Ute and Kristina to help with the statement of work. Unfortunately, Dan and I were completely consumed with internal new TLDs implementation planning meetings last week -- in preparation for the meetings in LA next week.

However, I have spoken with Dan again yesterday and emailed Kristina and Ute and we should have that all straightened out by COB today.

Could I agree with your suggestion to have the Council appoint an interim chair and populate the group with a small number of volunteers to kick things off? As soon as that is done, I can set up the first working call and get cracking on it.

As I identified to Kristina, we do have some very tight time frames to deal with but it will get done.

Kind regards.

Liz

I have not seen any follow-up regarding the Working Group to Protect Rights. My understanding from our special meeting was that we approved the WG with the understanding that the draft SoW would be modified to address concerns communicated in the meeting. What is the status of that?

Unfortunately, I think we failed to appoint an interim chair and to request names of volunteers. In that regard, I would like to get the ball rolling by communicating that the following have volunteered from the RyC: Jeff Neuman, David Maher and Edmon Chung.

It seems to me that we need to urgently get this WG started; otherwise, there may be unnecessary delays in the Dec05 PDP work.
