I would like to suggest what I think is a friendly amendment to the next 
to last bullet in the motion: "Any proposal approved by the council will 
then be sent out for bid by ICANN staff."   I suggest it be changed to 
the following: "Any proposal approved by the council will then be sent 
to ICANN staff for preparing cost estimates." 
 
It may be that staff would need to request bids but I don't think we 
should tie there hands if they can do cost estimates without asking for 
bids.  Also, organizations are not always highly motivated to provide 
bids if there is a high degree of uncertainty that a study would 
actually be approved.

Subject: [council] WHO study agenda item - creation of a template for 
study proposals 
 
 
Hi, 
 
In terms of this item of the agenda, the design team has been working, 
but there is a slight delay in terms of getting the template out for 
discussion.  I expect the template to be available for the council to 
review starting tomorrow (Tuesday) morning. 
 
I propose the following for the discussion: 
 
- Liz will walk us through the template 
- Council discussion on the template 
- council discussion of the next steps in accordance with our decision 
in LA on studies related to whois: 
 
I propose the following as a starting point for the discussion: 
 
    -- The design team works on filling out the template for a number of 
studies.  This team remains open to new members and 
       any GNSO constituency member interested in sponsoring a study is 
encouraged to join the design team. 
    -- The form is forwarded on the the chairs of the GAC and ALAC 
because those groups have also indicated an interest in whois studies 
    --  the form can be forwarded to the chairs of other groups if 
relevant. 
 
- Initial proposals are due on 10 January 
- The council will review initial proposals for studies at its 17 
January meeting. 
- Any proposal approved by the council will then be sent out for bid by 
ICANN staff 
 
- Further proposals for studies may be reviewed at a later time. 
 
 
thanks 
 
a.
