Re: [gnso-impl-irtpc-rt] IRTP C Clarification
Hi All, Happy New Year! I hope everyone is well rested and ready to dive back into IRTP-C. (Ha!) There seems to still be some lingering confusion in regards to IRTP C implementation. I will fully admit that I am one of the confused parties. In the spirit of moving things along, I scheduled a call this week so that we can decide how we would like to move this forward. We do not currently have a "who will do what, by when" type of implementation plan, but I would like to start working that out with all of you. Given many of your extensive expertise in other WGs and IRTs as well as your knowledge of how the discussions in IRTP-D color our efforts in IRTP-C, I would appreciate your help in putting this plan together. Please see the call-in details below: Thursday, 9 January at 17:00 UTC. Adigo code: 28462745 Adigo numbers: http://adigo.com/icann/ Adobe Connect: http://icann.adobeconnect.com/raaeducation/ If you have any suggestions for anything you would like addressed during the call, please let me know.
