RE: [soac-mapo] Updated Rec6 CWGStatus Report

[Margie Milam <Margie.Milam@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Chuck-

I'll include these changes.   Is the suggestion for Monday's call in addition 
to another call this week?  I think we need more than one call to get through 
the rest of the recommendations.   On last Monday's call we went through five 
out of 16 topics,  and didn't even fully complete the analysis for those topics.

I don't see how the CWG could realistically complete its analysis on the 
remaining 11 topics, plus resolve the open issues on the first 5 issues in two 
hours.  My suggestion is schedule a 2 hour call tomorrow, and then another 2 
hour call on Monday.

Thank you very much Margie.

One quick suggestion is that we probably should suggest that the final report 
is targeted for 21 September.  I think we will need a meeting on Monday and the 
21st would give you a little more time to apply the results decided in that 
meeting.

I suggest you change the following statement at the end of Section 2.5: "As of 
the date of this Status Report, the Rec6  CWG has determined the initial 
support levels for the recommendations and statements described in Annex 3  for 
the first five of 16 issues. "  Here is a possible change: ".      As of the 
date of this Status Report, the Rec6  CWG has determined the initial support 
levels for the recommendations and statements described in Annex 3  for the 
first three issues plus 4.3. "  I think that Issue 5 is still TBD based on the 
work going on for 4.1 & 4.2.

I am not sure that we should include the numerical scores of consensus for 
issues that we have resolved, i.e., issue categories 1, 2, 3 and 4.3. We did 
agree though to do that for those that we are not finished with.  If the group 
thinks, otherwise I am okay with that.  We are trying to get a sense of support 
from more than those who responded to the poll and in doing that we probably 
won't have time to add to the counts accurately.  Also in some cases, one 
person may be representing the views of their group, which means that counts 
can be a little misleading.

In the parenthetical comment of the support level for recommendation 4.1, I 
suggest that we say "New language is being explored for this item."  The same 
comment could be added to 4.2.

We probably should also add the following to Section 4, Recommended Next Steps: 
"The CWG may recommend that a public comment period be opened after submission 
of its Final Report."

Chuck

P.S. - This was prepared while taking notes in an IGF workshop so please make 
sure my suggestions make sense.

Importance: High

Dear All,

Please find attached an updated report that takes into account the comments 
received during yesterday's call.   I still need to proofread and format the 
report, but would appreciate your comments by 1700 UTC tomorrow, as I plan to 
update the report to include the results of the poll that Marika circulated 
earlier today, and then send it directly to the ICANN Secretary for 
distribution to the Board.

For those of you that may have missed yesterday's call,  this report is only a 
status report, and will be updated to become the final Report when the CWG 
finishes its review of the polling conducted on the 16  issues.     We expect 
that the final Report will be published shortly. In the Status Report, I 
suggest that it will be done by 20 Sept, to set expectations for any board 
members that may read the Status Report.

Also, please note that the ICANN Secretary was sent a note on behalf of the 
Rec6 CWG requesting that the Report be included in the Board's materials for 
the September retreat.

Best Regards,

Margie
