COMMENT SUBMISSION

Use this form to submit real-time comments to the physical meeting room in Santiago.

Messages sent though this form will be sent directly to the Remote Participation Liaison in the meeting room. The Liaison's will review and screen these messages; some messages will be read aloud, while others will displayed on projection screens. Of course, not every message can be read or displayed.

Therefore, it is important that real-time comments be clear and concise, and relevant to the topic currently being discussed. The idea is that messages sent in real time should be treated like comments made at the microphones in the meeting room. For that same reason, it's not a good idea to send lengthy prepared comments using the real-time comment system; instead, use ICANN's Feedback Form for comments written in advance of the start of the meeting. Finally, note that each comment submission is limited to 1000 characters, and no more than one comment will be considered from each remote participant on each topic under consideration -- just like in the meeting room itself. We will also attempt to give preference to those remote commenters who have not already participated.
