Re: [bc-gnso] FW: [council] OSC CSG Toolkit of Services Recommendations

["Mike O'Connor" <mike@xxxxxxxxxx>]

thanks Mike,

just got around to reviewing this.  this describes a basket of staff  
services that would be made available to constituencies and  
stakeholder groups -- and i like what is here.  just to highlight the  
important bit from the document here's the list of services that's  
being proposed, in priority sequence:
Assembling background and reference materials for Working Groups
Support for organizing face-to-face meetings (e.g. date/time,  
location, equipment, telephone bridge and, in certain venues,  
arranging accommodations)
Support for organizing teleconferences (schedule, announce, monitor)
Preparing minutes of formal meetings and teleconferences
Assisting volunteer leaders by identifying/scheduling liaison contacts  
within ICANN
Web site hosting and content maintenance (i.e., keeping site up to  
date with relevant documents and information)
Organizational record keeping (e.g., statements of interest, archives)
Maintaining up-to-date member contact info, mailing/discussion lists
Producing MP3 recordings of meetings
Assisting in conducting elections for officers
i think it would be a really good idea for us to fold this into our  
discussion about the role of our Secretariat in the future.  if this  
were to come to an up/down vote at the next Council meeting, i'd  
support a vote in favor of proceeding with the working-group's  
recommended list.  thanks Philip, for representing us on this team.
