>Javier and all others, I fully agree that we have to set a new deadline
although I am not sure that September 7th is enough. We will more likely
need until September 30.

The original intention was to create a document that can be discussed by
the ICANN Board at the November meeting. In order to be considered, the
document should be handed to the Board at least three weeks in advance,
that is, October 14th.

We need, before that date, three weeks for public comment and,
realistically, a couple of weeks for the Names Council to work on those
comments and finalise a report. That is why I was thinking that September
7th was a good date to hand in the WG C report.

Remember that once the report is in, we will have the three week period
(Sept 7th to 30th) in which the constituencies will actually evaluate and
comment on the report, producing input for the Names Council.

Actually, maybe September 9th would be a better date, to keep everything
going on Thursdays (complete weeks).

The Calendar would be:

August 19th
Drafting Committees start drafting documents

September 7th
Report sent to the Names Council by WG C

September 30th
End of Comments on WG C Report

October 14th
Report sent to the ICANN Board by the Names Council.
