[board-09georegionswg] Request For Document Review - Final Report of Geographic Regions Review Working Group
Dear Geographic Regions Review Working Group Members and List Observers, For review by working group members, attached please find an updated red-line version of the Final Report of the Geographic Regions Review Working Group. Pursuant to my previous communications, please take the next two-week period prior to the Dublin Meeting to review the limited redline changes and provide any collective or individual comments regarding the document to me by COB on Monday, 12 October. Given the length of time that has transpired since the last review period for the document, you¹ll note that the only few substantive edits generally reflect updated information regarding more recently collected IDN and new gTLD data and the recommendation that the Board direct staff to manage an extensive public review and comment period regarding the document. The latter recommendation anticipates the need of some communities that did not have regular dedicated working group participation (e.g., GAC, SSAC and RSSAC) to evaluate the working group recommendations and otherwise have the opportunity to query working group members and staff for background and deliberation information. The current plan is to process any final edits received over the next couple of weeks and for Cheryl (as Chair) to transmit the Final Report to the Board in conjunction with the ICANN Public Meeting in Dublin. Based on the current Board calendar, the Board would likely move to direct the opening of a public comment review period at its next post-Dublin meeting scheduled for mid-November creating the next formal opportunity for community comment and feedback to extend to or beyond the ICANN Public Meeting in Marrakech (ICANN 55). Your feedback on the proposed timing for review and comment would be most welcome. Cheryl and I look forward to moving this matter toward Board consideration and welcome any further dialogue with any of you on the process over the coming weeks and months. Thank you very much for your attention to this matter. I look forward to seeing many of you in Dublin in a few weeks! Best regards, Rob Hoggarth ?
