Dear Carlos, I agree that we should raise this issue in the GNSO meeting with GDD. However, I also see value in making a question about this topic to the board. By doing that we are sending a clear message that this issue is considered a high priority in our SG and we are giving it much more visibility. A question to GDD does not have the same political importance. Moreover, GDD is staff, is technical, and I believe this issue has a strong political component that makes it a good candidate to be a "board question". Finally, I already asked these questions to Atallah when he was here for the launch of .Rio a couple of weeks ago and the answers were evasive. I think it is time to take a shot with the board if others believe this is an important issue. Best!
