RE: [bc-gnso] ICANN Eliminates Board Meetings at ICANN Meetings

["Hansen, Anjali" <AHansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That seems to be the right answer as far as I'm concerned. I agree with Marilyn 
and Sarah.  Monday May 7th is the first day of the INTA conference so I won't 
be able to attend the BC meeting.

Thanks Marilyn.  I agree with the concerns.  If they wanted to remove one Act 
from the Theater of the Absurd, it should not be the public Board meeting.

I will write today to the Chairs of the Constituencies/SGs/SOs to ask them 
their views and concerns. Crocker mentioned it in his comments, but it WAS not 
consulted with the community in any way.

I do think it is a problem for actually fulfilling the transparency of ICANN; 
however, I would like to hear from other members on your thoughts.

It is expensive for business to spend 6-7 days, but the Board will be now 
lessening its interactions with the community.

In my view, at this time, a bad move.

In my opinion, a step backwards for transparency and accountability --
