Re: [council] WSIS session on new gTLDs
Thanks, Marilia. I will relay your suggestion to the staff members that are working on this. Best regards, Marika From: Marilia Maciel <mariliamaciel@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Monday 4 April 2016 at 08:54 To: Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: "council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: [council] WSIS session on new gTLDs Dear Marika, Thank you for seeking further clarification and thanks to the GDD for providing this information. This is reassuring indeed. I would like to reinforce my suggestion, however, that the reframing and amendment of the session is discussed with the co-chairs of the new gTLD subsequent procedures WG to make sure the two processes (the Reviews and the work of the WG) are covered.
