<div>Rachel,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for this useful update and reminder. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>While urging each one of us to dip into the file and provide a comment, may i also suggest that our regional/thematic groupings do the same? For instance, the AF* should be able to provide valuable comments in their respective fields of concern..The regional 'IGFs' should also have a say..Hopefully, all of this should increase our overall contribution to policy development at ICANN.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>best regards</div>
<div>Pierre D.<br><br></div>

<p>A vital part of ICANN's processes is the opportunity for there to be public comment on each substantial piece of work before it is put forward for final approval. This is an archive of one month's public comment periods, arranged according to the month in which the comment period was closed. </p>
<p>Each box below provides a brief explanation of what the comment period hoped to achieve, as well as: links to relevant reports and/or webpages; a link to the official announcement of the comment period; a link to where all existing comments can be found; and an email link for anyone that wished to send in a comment. A "summary/analysis" objectively reviews the comments. </p>
