[gnso-rn-wg] Kick-Off Meeting for RN-WG
Let me start by apologizing for the fact that most of you will probably receive
this message twice. The reason for that is that I am sending it to the RN-WG
mailing list set up by ICANN as well as to a distribution list that I
established for my own use. I did that for two reasons: 1) there is at least
one person who as volunteered that is not yet on the ICANN list; 2) because I
have not received responses to my test messages from several members, it is not
clear that the ICANN list is working for everyone.
The kick-off meeting for the Reserved Names Working Group is officially
scheduled as follows:
Thursday, 25 January, 2007 at 19:00 (07:00 pm) UTC, Dublin
11:00 PST, Sacramento/San Francisco/Las Vegas/Bellevue
13:00 CST (1:00 pm) Cedar Rapids
14:00 (2:00 pm) EST, New York/Washington DC
20:00 (8:00 pm) CET Brussels
07:00 (07:00 am next day) Wellington
Glen will be sending the call information via the RN-WG list. If you do not
receive it by COB Wednesday, please let me know so that I can get it to you.
Here is my contact information: cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx; (O) +1 916 681-0389; (M)
+1 703 362-8753.
Please note that I attached the Statement of Work (SoW). You will see that
there a couple highlighted changes. Those changes were made by me in an effort
to attempt to incorporate the changes that were approved when the SoW was
approved by the Council last week.
Action item before meeting: please review the SoW and identify any questions
you have. (We will be discussing the SoW as part of our agenda in the kick-off
meeting).
I have also attached a draft agenda. As you can see, we will discuss and
approve a final agenda at the beginning of the meeting.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I am aware that we will likely
have additional members added between now and the kick-off meeting; we will do
our best to get them added to the WG list and to inform them of the call
details. For those of you who may not be able to participate in the kick-off
meeting, the meeting will be recorded and transcribed and the MP3 and
transcription should be available by Friday; please listen/review to come up to
speed before our next meeting which may be as soon as one week.
In closing, I want to express special thanks to Glen de Saint Gery and Kent
Krispin for their outstanding and timely support in getting us up and running.
Chuck Gomes
Interim Chair
