Thank you, Julie.  I believe your explanation has correctly captured what
the Work Team requested during our teleconference meeting yesterday.

Dear Work Team members,

As discussed in today's call, attached in .doc and .pdf are the final
recommended changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures to address abstentions.
As requested on the call, Ken Bour has revised the latest version, which was
based on the discussion on the 06 January Work Team call, to incorporate the
procedures into Section 4.0 - Voting as a new subsection 4.5 - Abstentions.
Please note that Ken identified and made changes in a few other places
within Section 4 to maintain consistency and integrity throughout the entire
set of voting procedures.  Because he was changing existing approved
language, he left track changes on in 4.1-4.4, but accepted all of the
changes in 4.5 per Ray's request. 

ACTION ITEM: It was agreed on today's call that unless Work Team members
specifically object to these final recommended procedures no later than
Monday, 01 February, they will be considered to be agreed to by the Work
Team.  If there are no objections, the Work Team will forward the
recommended procedures to ICANN Legal staff for review.  Once that review is
complete the Work Team will forward the procedures to the Operations
Steering Team for consideration with the goal of GNSO Council approval at at
the Council's 10 March meeting at the ICANN meeting in Nairobi, Kenya.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thank you.

Best regards,

Julie
