CCTC Team,

During today’s meeting, we postponed the agenda item to review the Charter to 
ensure we are on track with the work produced thus far.  By my read, we are on 
track regarding work effort, but we are past due on committed time frame.

The ICANN Board resolution called for a deliverable date for discussion at the 
San Francisco meeting March 2011.  However, within the Deliverables & Timeframe 
section it states that we produce an update report to the GNSO Council at the 
Dakar meeting, October 2011.  Despite the conflict, we are five months to a 
year behind schedule.

Given today’s meeting, it is apparent that we have much more work to complete 
and we have an internal deliverable date for publishing the initial advice 
letter by 7 FEB 2012.  That gives us just two more planned meetings to complete 
this effort.  Supposing we can make the 7 FEB date and open a public comment 
period (45 days), the close date will become 23 MAR 2012.  This is optimal, as 
the public comment period will still be open post Costa Rica meeting, but only 
by one week.  As a backup, we can possibly delay our date to 14 FEB 2012 and 
that allows two weeks post Costa Rica.

To complete our deliverables on time, we not only must complete the Advice 
letter, but we also have an open agenda item to review each metric within the 
matrix to gain consensus on the metric title, level of difficulty, and three 
year targets.  I plan to have the next version of the matrix available by 
Thursday 12 JAN and Steve intends to do the same with the next draft of the 
advice letter.

With the present workload and our pending deadline, I propose that we have a 
meeting on 31 JAN 2012 in addition to our planned 24 JAN & 7 FEB sessions.  
Please complete the following Doodle poll so that we can determine member 
availability.  I feel it will be important for the team to meet in conference 
as much as possible to review each metric so that we can gain consensus, as 
these support the core definitions.
