Thanks for sending it on Jeff.

Cherine's note is obviously of great importance to this group. Please note the 
deadline set by the Board for them to get a response from the GNSO and adjust 
your work schedule accordingly.

If the group has a problem with either the deadline or the work it is being 
asked to do here, please let the Council know asap.

Once again, my thanks to this group for its hard work on these issues.

Subject: Update from The New gTLD Program Committee on the Red Cross/Red 
Crescent and IOC Issues

Dear Stéphane,
I wanted to reach out to you and the GNSO Council to let you know about an 
issue of interest to the GNSO that the New gTLD Program Committee addressed 
this week: the protection of Red Cross/Red Crescent and IOC names.  The 
Committee passed a resolution yesterday requesting that the GNSO consider a 
proposed solution for the first round to protect at the second level the names 
of Red Cross/Red Crescent and IOC, consistent with the GAC advice to the Board.
We have been apprised of, and appreciate, the significant work currently 
underway by the GNSO’s IOC/RC Drafting Team, and the potential PDP under 
consideration.  We crafted the resolution in a way that recognises that GNSO 
work is ongoing.  The resolution and the rationale will be posted next Monday.
The Committee adopted this resolution now, rather than wait until Toronto, to 
provide sufficient time for the GNSO to develop its views on this request 
taking into account the timeline for the first round.   It is important that 
this issue is resolved early next year so that additional protections, if they 
are adopted, are in place for the first round.  As a result, the Committee is 
seeking the GNSO’s response by January 31, 2013.
We look forward to receiving the GNSO's response and are available to discuss 
this issue in further detail in Toronto.
Sincerely,
Cherine Chalaby
