| CWGs - Reach out to ccNSO to request that they provide input on the principles | 11/4 | 16/5 | Jonathan Robinson | Marika Konings | The Council created a drafting team that created a set of principles for CWGs that could be a potential departure point for developing broader community agreement on CWGs, including their role, function, and method of conducting joint activities. The GNSO approved these principles in March 2012 and circulated them to the SOs and ACs. The ccNSO submitted comments. The GNSO also held a public session in Prague to discuss the principles and, in particular, the suggestion from the ccNSO that a CWG could be established with the goal to arrive at a common set of principles and the identification of areas of divergence in guidelines and practices across SOs and ACs. A call for volunteers was subsequently launched, but to date, only volunteers from the SSAC and ccNSO have come forward. As there appears to be limited interest, and possibly bandwidth, to create a CWG to explore this issue further, the Council will instead encourage the ccNSO to provide their input on the GNSO developed principles, included proposed changes, which then can be reviewed by the DT and/or GNSO Council and hopefully result in principles that can be supported by a wide range of SO/ACs. | Completed - letter sent to ccNSO on 23/4 |

| Form Proxy and Privacy Accreditation Charter Drafting Team | 14/3 | 16/5 | Jeff Neuman | Marika Konings | One of the items that may need to be addressed as part of the RAA PDP appears to be the creation of a privacy / proxy accreditation program.

Expected publication by Durban. |
