Further to the message below, please see the following excerpt from our 
charter, which is particularly relevant to item 3, and perhaps other agenda 
items below.
 
In producing the DT report, the chair will be responsible for designating each 
position as having one of the following designations: 

 

 

o Unanimous consensus position 

o Rough consensus position - a position where a small minority disagrees but 
most agree

o Strong support but significant opposition 

o Minority viewpoint(s) 

o If several participants in a DT disagree with the designation given to a 
position by the chair or any other rough consensus call, their position and the 
reasons for the disagreement should be reflected in the DT report.

call



Subteam B participants,  

Attached please find an edited version of the draft initial report prepared by 
staff and discussed on our last call. I hope that this captures the points 
discussed then but I encourage you to let us know if it does not, and if so how 
it should be changed.  

I also attach the two pending versions of the "next steps" bullets -- one 
drafted by me (working from the earlier proposals from me and Tim Ruiz), the 
other a redline of my draft prepared by Statton Hammock. 

For our next call (Monday May 10 at 2000 UTC), I  propose the following agenda: 

1.      Discussion of the "next steps" bullets and resolution of subteam 
position(s) 

2.      Discussion of registrar concerns about Annex F (staff memorandum of 14 
April) 

3.      Review/approval of the remainder of initial draft report 

4.      Brussels planning update if any. 

I encourage all participants to circulate their comments in advance of the May 
10 meeting if possible, which will facilitate our completion of this ambitious 
agenda.     I have not seen any other comments on the draft initial report so 
far.  (My previous posting requested these by COB today.)    

As you know, because of the planned Brussels workshop, the deadline for 
completion of our report has been accelerated to May 31.  I am confident that 
we will meet this deadline and indeed it is realistic that our May 17 call -- 
the last one we have scheduled for now -- may be the last one needed before 
completion of the initial report.  

Looking forward to speaking with you on Monday (or Tuesday as the case may be 
for some of you!).   

Steve Metalitz
