- Recap of public interest discussions and meaning in the ICANN context.
- Affirmation of commitments and ATRT2 recommendations (9.2 as noted in the Charter) need to be considered in the document. The document is intended as a first step, for further discussion/development.
Action Item: Colleagues to provide comments on the list in response to the document. Proposed edits are welcome. Goal to develop a common view on scoping. Will be an agenda item for the next call and the Frankfurt meeting. Public interest issues, ccTLD concerns and other issues to be identified.

- Co-chairs have reached out to the ICG to confirm that the Jan 15 deadline was not applicable to CCWG. Confirmation that this was the case, no response necessary.
- Written to Bruce Tonkin for deadlines and process for considered by the ICANN Board on how they will deal with recommendations from CCWG and CWG. Questions discussed on the mailing list not included in this correspondence. Will be an issued for a F2F meeting between the CCWG and Board in Singapore being arranged now.
- Co-chairs asked if the CWG would find it useful if the CCWG issued high-level statements. CWG response that this would be useful, preferably before CWG work-weeked (Jan 9, 10, 11).
5. High Level Statement
- Suggestion is for the co-chairs to publish this high-level statement on behalf of the CCWG and to send to CWG co-chairs. The document is not for adoption on this call, but ideally within 48 hours in time for the CWG working weekend.
