      I was a little worried about this one - it is an important
      proceeding. All, this is about how ICANN implements the policies
      we develop together in the GNSO. As some say, the "devil's in the
      details" and taking broad policy statements and making them work
      as a matter of day-to-day implementation has a number of trials
      and possible pitfalls. There have been problems and concerns with
      how this has been handled in the past - and this Working Group is
      an opportunity to try to address the gaps.<br>
      <br>
      If anyone would like to work on this with me, let's form a small
      group to review materials and draft the comments. Please let me or
      Amr know if you are interested!<br>
      Best,<br>

      Hi,
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>The deadline to submit public comments to the
        policy/implementation working group’s initial report and
        recommendations has been extended at the request of the working
        group chairs.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Maybe give folks a little more time to look at the report (if
        interested)?</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Like I said before, the output of this working group will
        very likely lead to multiple new processes by which the GNSO
        works including amendments to the ICANN bylaws. Not light
        reading, but certainly worth a look.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Thanks.</div>
