HI All,
I just saw on the Public Comment page that ICANN has extended the Comment Period
through June 11. It said Comments are closed on June 12.
I have added and reorganized the section on the new NomCom Standing Committee
and added in some of the concerns that Stephanie and Rafik had. Our concerns
were on the charter, the terms and the powers of the standing committee. So
hope I have addressed all these concerns.
Also the creation of the standing committee is under questions 2 and not 3.
Question 3 is about the Charter itself. So have reorganized our comment to
follow those lines
Best,
Judith
