RE: [gnso-outreachdiscussion] AW: AW: Work on GNSO outreach

["Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Stephane,

I share a different view from you on this.  The last several full council 
sessions on this have been open ended and have not resulted in any progress.  
In fact, they have been disappointing to say the least without reaching any 
conclusions,  or action items.  Unless there is a motion for the full council 
to consider and progress made prior to Prague by the smaller team, I do not 
believe we should add it to the full agenda.  That said, if progress is made, 
or there is a motion, then we will have to have room to discuss.

All, may I suggest you work your session into the full GNSO weekend schedule?

I for one, would like to have the full Council attend your deliberations. The 
question of outreach is key, and I am worried that it is slipping under the 
Council's radar. Holding a session in Prague as part of the Council's weekend 
agenda, rather than a separate work session, might help push it back up there.

Thanks,
