11:47:16 From Sivasubramanian M To Everyone:
    Thank you Justine, not to persist, but to clarify, the question was not at all about how variants are determined by label generation rules, but how variants that are variants by these rules are reserved for the existing, new gTLD and next round Registry that happens to be the first Registry for a given TLD, for example .COM or .MUSIC or .YET,  should the first Registry for any TLD be deemed to have taken all the variants / accents of the first  Registry of any TLD ? And to a reasonable extent on tge second level also?
11:47:53 From Steinar Grøtterød (At-Large) To Everyone:
    The RA/RAA amendment for DNS Abuse should be mentioned. If the amendment is not being approved (there definitely is a possibility that the RAA will not have sufficient “yes”).

11:53:42 From Lutz Donnerhacke To Everyone:
    Someone should invent an "Expedited Micro-PDP on fast-track" consisting on a single work-group session without any followup.

    CPWG - Consolidated Policy Working Group Home Page is on: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=82411661#ConsolidatedPolicyWorkingGroup(CPWG)-Resources
11:55:34 From Cheryl Langdon-Orr To Everyone:
    The main influence on the time taken in a ODO (e type or otherwise)is the preciseness of the scope of work, going forward more tightly scoped (and Chartered) Policy processes  will see greater efficiencies  being seen... Or that *is* the intent.
11:56:34 From Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond To Everyone:
    From the CPWG HOme Page you will find the resources which Cheryl has mentgioned about "SubPro" - GTLD Next Round - on: https://community.icann.org/display/alacpolicydev/At-Large+Workspace%3A+SubPro+Updates
12:03:34 From Joanna Kulesza To Everyone:
    Replying to "Thank you Justine, n..."
    
    Hi Siva, this is Justine. Firstly, the RZ-LGR will be the authoritative source for what is variant for every existing TLD and sting. If .COM were to have variants - which I am not commenting that there are or are not - then those variants will be part of the variant TLD set that only the RO that can apply for - this is a policy recommendation out of the IDNs EPDP. But please do not confuse variants with confusing similarity. Please come speak to me if I still haven't answered your question adequately. Thanks.
