Hi,

At the last meeting, I expressed concern about the wording of Principle II.B in 
the implementation framework and Chuck suggested that I provide some 
alternative wording. (that was a modified quote from Chuck's message reminding 
me to do this - what a chair!)

How about appending something like:

In any case where the intention of the GNSO, as interpreted by the ICANN Staff, 
does not correspond to a strict interpretation of the recommendation text 
itself, the Staff should consult with the GNSO for clarification.
