Dear Robin, David and Alain,

Would you please provide the following information for the Stakeholder Day
meetings on Tuesday, 16 October 2012,  in Toronto and please let me have
this no later than *Friday*, *17 AUGUST 2012. *
**·       **Session Title, Overview, and Agenda
Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group****

*Are you happy with text or do you want to add to it:***

The purpose of the Non Commercial Stakeholder Group (NCSG) is to represent,
through its elected representatives and its Constituencies, the interests
and concerns of noncommercial registrants and noncommercial Internet users
of generic Top-level Domains (gTLDs).****

It provides a voice and representation in ICANN processes to: non-profit
organizations that serve noncommercial interests; nonprofit services such
as education, philanthropies, consumer protection, community organizing,
promotion of the arts, public interest policy advocacy, children's welfare,
religion, scientific research, and human rights; public interest software
concerns; families or individuals who register domain names for
noncommercial personal use; and Internet users who are primarily concerned
with the noncommercial, public interest aspects of domain name policy.****

*Who should attend?*

.****

All publicly posted sessions *MUST* have a description. What is the session
about? Who is the audience? Speakers?
* a breakdown of topics to be discussed
* a list of speakers/panellists split up according to relevant subject
* an explanation of the session's goals and expected outcomes
* hyperlinks to relevant documentation.

The objective is to ensure that community leaders and participants,
especially remote participants, are able to evaluate whether or not this is
a session they wish to attend, so the more information you can give about
it the better.****

   - *Preferred  Time - please state *****

Avoid overlapping regularly scheduled breaks (see below).
If you need closed sessions during your meeting, please state the time and
please try to make these either at the beginning or the end of meeting,
rather than mid-morning or mid-afternoon. We will try and keep to the same
time slot as in Prague for the Stakeholder Group/Constituency consultations
with the Board, that is 3:30pm - 4:30pm - Board with NCSG****

** **

   - *Estimated Number of Attendees - (very important to optimize the
   space) preferred room set-up, we will do our best, though we are unable to
   guarantee the set-up because this depends on the space available.*****
