[gnso-osc] FW: Seoul planning

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Because of the excessive amount of work happening in the three OSC WTs, I 
believe it would be helpful for the OSC to hold a meeting in Seoul.  As always, 
teleconference capabilities would be available but the time difference may 
create some challenges for those not in Korea.

An afternoon meeting in Seoul on Sunday, 25 October would probably be best so 
that any in-person WT meetings could be held in advance of that. A 2 pm meeting 
in Korea would be the following times in other time zones: 6 am in Brussels; 3 
am in Buenos Aires; 1 am in D.C.; 10 pm in Los Angeles.  Times in the AsiaPac 
region would be more reasonable.  Choosing an earlier time would improve the 
hour for the Americas but make it worse for Europe.

It would be helpful to know which OSC members are not planning to be present in 
Seoul on Sunday, 25 October and who might be available to participate via phone 
on that day.  Please communicate your anticipated status in that regard ASAP to 
help me in picking a time that is not too bad for those who will be calling in. 
 Also, please indicate the time zone for where you would be calling from.

Thanks, Chuck

Dear Chuck,

As chair of a drafting team/working group we would like to have timely 
information on whether your group plans to hold in-person meetings in Seoul and 
whether you have a preference for a day and time. As usual, the GNSO working 
sessions will be held on Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 October and there will be 
two working rooms. If you need some of this space, please book early!

If you do plan to hold a meeting, could you also please let me know, the name 
of the group, the estimated number of people you would expect and any extra 
meeting tools, such as an Adobe Connect room, you may need.

This information will be essential for scheduling meetings and avoiding as many 
conflicts as possible.

Please respond no later than 31 August 2009.
Thank you very much.

Kind regards,
Glen
