me know if you have any changes or questions.  These also are posted at:

MEETING WILL BE WEDNESDAY, 12 AUGUST AT 1400 UTC.

Thank you,

Action Items:
1. GNSO Council Rules of Procedure: URGENT: Prior to the meeting on 05 August 
Work Team members should review the document (attached) Sections: 4.3, 5.1, 
5.2, 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7 to determine whether any changes need to be made to 
these sections. At the 05 August meeting it was suggested that these sections 
may not need to be changed. THESE SECTIONS ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW. Those 
sections that reference the Bylaws DO NOT need to be addressed by the Work Team.
2. Proposed GNSO Structure: Julie will collect comments in the form of a chart 
for easy reference.
3. SOI/DOI Document: Julie will check on the status of the document with ICANN 
legal staff.

Discussion Summary:
1. GNSO Council Rules of Procedure:
Work Team members discussed the latest draft of the revised procedures and 
decided to divide the sections into those that may need few, if any, changes 
and those that are more complex and will require detailed discussion. It was 
agreed that in order to complete the changes to the document the team would 
meet weekly in the month of August. For the 12 August meeting, the group 
decided to address those sections that may not require changes and to ask team 
members to review them ahead of the meeting. These are Sections: 4.3, 5.1, 5.2, 
5.5, 5.6, and 5.7. Those sections that are more complex and require additional 
discussion are: 5.3, 5.4, 5.5a, 5.8, and 16. Ray asked what would be the 
process for recommendations. Rob and Julie noted that they would first go to 
the OSC, which would review them and then forward them (with any changes) to 
the GNSO Council for review/approval. Tony noted that the OSC and Council both 
will need time for substantive discussion of the document.
2. Proposed GNSO Structure:
Julie has received several responses and is forwarding them to the Work Team 
members. She also will put them into a chart per Ray's request. Ray sent the 
request on 30 July and allowed 3 weeks for a response. The team agreed to 
discuss the responses once the deadline for receiving them was past.
3. ICANN Meeting at Seoul
The team members decided it would be useful to have a meeting on Sunday 
morning, 25 October. Julie noted that Chuck Gomes is planning to hold a meeting 
of the OSC Sunday afternoon the same day.
