Re: [soac-newgtldapsup-wg] JAS New gTLD Applicant Support WG Charter

[Andrew Mack <amack@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

I too am concerned that the Neuman draft is too limiting and was disappointed 
that this became an issue.  I agree that taking all discussion of real money 
off 
the table overly limits our discussion and is unlikely to move us forward as 
we'd like.  That said, it does seem that there should be some sort of 
compromise 
possible in the  wordsmithing, since as Alan says the GNSO version is mostly 
contained in  the ALAC version.    


As for what Eric says below, while there wasn't full consensus on what work 
we'd 
do to support minority languages and scripts, I didn't read our report as 
saying 
we shouldn't continue with the work.  As there are at least a few of us that 
would like to continue this -- and since it affects so many people and clearly 
has some GNSO support -- I would like to see us keep it on our list.  


My apologies as I won't be able to be on the call tomorrow, but will be there 
for the next one.
Regards, Andrew

Thank you Alan.

I don't recall how something we spent as much time on as minority languages was 
excluded from the proposed charter that Rafiq proposed to the Names Council, 
but 
that is water under the bridge.
