AW: [gnso-ppsc-pdp] Possible Face to Face Meeting

[<KnobenW@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Unfortunately I've got sick and cannot take part in today's meeting call.
I support Jeff's proposal to hold a concentrated well prepared face to face 
meeting in the near future and would like to participate if possible.
 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Betreff: [gnso-ppsc-pdp] Possible Face to Face Meeting



Dear All,

As most of you are aware, the PDP-WT has made slow progress on the new Policy 
Development Process partly due to limited attendance and participation over the 
last few months. With the new Council taking its seat in Seoul, we have been 
discussing ways to speed up the process and come to a timely agreement on the 
new Policy Development Process. As a result, we would like to propose to 
organise a 1.5 - 2 day face to face meeting of the PDP-WT. The objective of 
this meeting would be to wrap up the discussions on the different stages and 
reach agreement on the overall recommendations and proposed changes to the 
ICANN by-laws in order to implement the new PDP. 

To facilitate such a meeting, ICANN has informed me that it would take care of 
arranging the logistics and provide funding to a limited number of participants 
(e.g. 1 participant from each constituency, Advisory Committee, etc.). Taking 
into account the geographic spread of the participants of the WT, the proposal 
would be to organize the meeting on the US East Coast, e.g. Washington DC. Of 
course, remote participation facilities would be made available for those not 
able to travel to the meeting. Ideally such a meeting would be held before the 
end of the year or in early January at the latest.

The WT might want to discuss this proposal in further detail at its meeting 
coming Thursday and on the e-mail list prior to Seoul. If there is support for 
the organisation of such a face to face meeting, the next step would be to 
confirm a date and location as soon as possible so that the necessary 
arrangements can be made in a timely fashion.



Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.
