<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Many thanks for reaching out with this request. As you may be aware, we are working with tight timelines all around and especially for the ASP since
it launches at the end of this year. </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If ICANN org officially extends the public comment timeline this could risk other ASP Handbook public comment submissions coming in late, delaying
our ability to analyze those and integrate feedback into the ASP Handbook in-line with our project schedule. Therefore, we cannot officially extend the public comment period deadline past 2 April without risking the ASP timeline.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">However, if the NCSG submits its comments within a few days of the public comment period closing, those comments will of course be considered alongside
the other public comments received. My understanding is that comments submitted after the deadline can be shared directly with the project team and that we can append the NCSG’s submission to our public comment report once it's published. </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Does this sound like a reasonable path forward? We very much appreciate the NCSG’s enthusiasm for the ASP and we look forward to receiving the NCSG’s
submission on the draft ASP Handbook. Please let us know if you have any questions or if you'd like to discuss. </span><u></u><u></u></p>
