Hi All,

 

As indicated earlier, the PI WG F2F meeting in BA is currently scheduled for
Wednesday 20 November from 7.30 ­ 9.00. However, looking at the latest
internal version of the schedule, it looks like that contrary to previous
meetings, some of the other sessions are already starting at 8.30 such as an
ICANN Finance Open Session, EWG and EBERO.
[Chuck Gomes] I will likely have conflicts with the ICANN Finance Open
Session and the EWG sessions.
 
As these sessions are likely to be a conflict for some of the WG membership,
you may want to explore a couple of options to reduce the conflict:
* Move the session to 7.00 ­ 8.30[Chuck Gomes]  I am okay with this but it
will likely limit participation even more than a 7:30 start time.
* Shorten the meeting from 7.30 ­ 8.30[Chuck Gomes]  I do not think this is
enough time if we want to allow lots of time for audience input.  It would
be unfortunate in  my opinion to  limit the advantages of an in-person to
only 60 minutes.
* Move the session to 16.30 ­ 18.00 (only obvious conflicts for the moment
would be IDN Variants, ATRT2 Wrap-up and the Technology Innovation
Panel)[Chuck Gomes]  I would like to participate in the ATRT2 Wrap-Up
session but could listen to the MP3 and read the transcripts if necessary.
* Keep the session as is[Chuck Gomes]  I strongly prefer the first or third
options above but will defer to the WG needs.
Do note that this is still a draft version of the schedule and further
changes may occur (but I'll do my best to keep an eye on those).

 

I look forward to receiving your feedback.

 

Best regards,

 

Marika
