[soac-newgtldapsup-wg] Cartagena event

[Tijani BEN JEMAA <tijani.benjemaa@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

I’m so sorry for my long absence (out of my control). I want to apologize for 
not contributing in the last weeks work.
I also want to thank you all for the work done, especially Avri who did a huge 
effort and put time and energy. 

Because I was absent during the last weeks, and that I will not be able to 
attend the 30 November call (travelling), I decided to write this e-mail to 
give you my POV concerning the event that our Working Group intends to organize 
in Cartagena:

•       I do think that we should avoid speaking for long, while we need to 
inform about our work. I think it’s useless to read the whole report or even 
the whole recommendations in detail. We need a short summary highlighting the 
main recommendations (needs to be prepared and adopted before Cartagena).
•       I also think that we had better get the maximum of the floor feedback
•       We don’t need several speakers from the WG to present the summary. Only 
one can do so.  For the reply to the floor questions, anyone from the WG that 
knows the best the issue can answer. We will be all sitting in the front row of 
the room.
•       I believe that those among the most active members who were sitting on 
the panel in Brussels (I was one of them) should not do so in Cartagena. One of 
the active members that wasn’t on the panel in Brussels is Alan Greenberg.  I 
propose that he presents the summary and moderates the session.
•       The main objective of this event is to inform about our work and to 
stimulate the floor feedback.

I hope my proposal will help our work to be well looked and to draw the maximum 
of comments and questions from the community.
