RE: [gnso-idng] reporting back to the council

["Edmon Chung" <edmon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Avri,

If you look at the document, it simply describes the problem and leave
further action to the council.  

As suggested, and as you pointed out, I also do not think we arrived at much
consensus except for identifying the problem of applying for confusingly
similar TLD strings.  Which was what I am suggesting we report back to the
council.  No suggestion or charter for working group was included.
