[gnso-osc-ccc] Webinar calling for commnets on proposed redesign of GNSO.ICANN.ORG web site

[Glen de Saint Géry <Glen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

Please take part in the Webinar organized  to call for Comments on the proposed 
redesign of GNSO.ICANN.ORG web site on Wednesday 14 October at 1300 UTC

http://gnso.icann.org/announcement/announcement-07oct09-en.htm

As part of the GNSO Improvements Project, one of the tasks given the Operations 
Steering Committee's (OSC's) Communications Coordination Team (CCT) was to make 
the GNSO web site "more usable." The CCT has expedited progress on this task 
and, after extensive research with GNSO users and the ICANN community, has 
developed a proposed re-design of gnso.icann.org.

The CCT's research indicates that the three most common user tasks on the GNSO 
site are: trying to find a document; managing activities via the Master 
Calendar; and seeking to learn the latest regarding a policy issue. The CCT 
proposed redesign to GNSO.ICANN.ORG simplifies those three tasks, and also 
makes the site friendlier to newcomers.

Scott Pinzon and Ken Bour, ICANN Staff supporting the CCT, are presenting an 
overview and some wireframe diagrams of the proposed redesign. The goal is to 
gain your input, advice, and suggestions on further refinements. The overview 
will describe:

.What it means to move from a static website to a dynamic website
.The reasoning behind the proposed changes
.Whose input influenced the proposed changes
.Proposed new features, such as the Acronym Helper
.How non-English content could be handled
.Where to send comments and suggestions
The webinar will be held on Wednesday 14 October at 1300 UTC using Adobe 
Connect and the dial-in bridge. All are welcome to participate, but members of 
the GNSO are especially encouraged to participate.

To make sure that there are enough lines, please RSVP to Gisella Gruber-White: 
Email: gisella.gruber-white@xxxxxxxxx.

Dial-in details and the Adobe Connect room details will then be forwarded to 
you.
