Re: [soac-mapo] Revised draft Charter Terms of Reference for your review

[Stéphane Van Gelder <stephane.vangelder@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Liz,

I would like to suggest the word "preliminary" be stricken from the very last 
sentence of this document (shown in red below):

"The Rec6 CWG should deliver a preliminary report with comments from the GNSO, 
ALAC, and GAC not later than 13 September 2010 to meet the 11-day advance 
publication that the Board requests for its retreat on new gTLDs."

While I understand from Frank's comments sent to the list yesterday that 
replacing it with the word "final" would be worrisome for the GAC, I do think 
the group's focus should be on meeting the deadline de-facto imposed on it by 
the Board retreat.

Leaving "preliminary" in there implies that there would be more to come from 
the group. That may be, but it may also be that after whatever the Board 
decides to do during its September retreat, this group will become moot.

I therefore suggest we do not be any more specific in the ToR than saying 
"deliver a report".
