[soac-newgtldapsup-wg] announcement for Milestone Report posting
Dear all, Please see attached the current announcement that reflects the majority of the feedback I received. I hope I captured the overall message and tone, even if 100% of the suggested changes are not here, particularly the once that offered more of a press release kind of structure, which is not the case. Just to review the next steps towards posting, as I understand it: Nov 10 - deadline to review the ADDENDA. Nov 10 - if we are all ok with the announcement as well, then we can post the Milestone Report and addenda for public comments. The Public comment period will be for 30 days minimum, with an appropriate extension once we have the translated versions available. Karla to do: I will update the Wiki accordingly and prior to all postings since the Wiki link is in the announcement. I believe the Wiki access issue has been solved. If you still have access issues, let me know. I will send the materials to our global regional managers and give them an update on this topic so they know what this is about. I submitted the Milestone Report for translations and will do the same with the addenda and announcement as soon as approved. All info will be in 6 UN languages (English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Russia, Arabic). Avri, Evan - will you notify the SO/AC and Board about this report publication when it is done, or do you want me to do it? CARTAGENA: * Confirmed that we will have a 1 hour session on Thursday, Dec 9, from 9:30 to 10:30. Session title agreed upon: "Assisting gTLD Applicants from Developing Economies". Agenda details, speakers were not discussed yet. The room will have interpreters, remote participation, scribes.... We have the stage set up in theater form. I strongly suggest we have a guest speaker and also maybe one or 2 board members that demonstrate support (maybe Katim and one of the new board members?) * The chairs (Avri/Evan or both) will also give a 10 minutes update on the Monday new gTLD Session. We will need a slide or 2 in advance for this. Can we have it next week? I can come up with something * Other special sessions with updates to SO/AC are coordinated by Avri.
