Re: [bc-gnso] Announcement: Change in June meeting location: Middle EastDevelopments Cause Cancellation of ICANN Jordan Meeting

May I suggest we do a remote participation for the BC in San Francisco area?  
We can invite Silicon Valley firms, etc.  I'm just sick about how much a 
Singapore conference will cost members - especially after the numerous gTLD 
delays which have cost numerous people in the ICANN community significant time 
and resources.  Just a thought.

 Developments Cause Cancellation of ICANN Jordan Meeting


Dear BC Members:
 
http://blog.icann.org/2011/02/middle-east-developments-interfere-with-icann-41-jordan-meeting/

ICANN announced that the June meeting will not take place in Jordan. A formal 
announcement of location will be made soon.  I am aware that at least two BC 
members have already purchased tickets to Jordan. That is regrettable, and I do 
hope that they are refundable tickets. 
Please stay tuned for the formal announcement of the new location of the June 
meeting. 
I realize that travel to Asia is challenging as well to many BC members, due to 
cost and time to travel.I am told that it is likely that the meeting will be in 
Asia.
