Re: [gnso-rap-dt] For review - final charter and programme for registration abuse policies workshop

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Staff is trying to find the best time and venue to meet the needs of all 
interested parties.  Many members of the At-Large community are keenly 
interested in attending a Registration Abuse Workshop, but it would difficult 
for them to do so if it was scheduled in conflict with the At-Large Summit 
closing session. After a close review of the schedule, another alternative 
might be to have the workshop on Tuesday 3 March from 17.30 - 19.00. Would the 
group prefer this timeslot over the Monday morning option?

Best regards,

Marika

Marika,

With regard to scheduling the workshop, are you saying that (a) ALAC staff 
would prefer that we not have the workshop on Thursday morning, but that we 
(the drafting team) could still decide to do so; or (b) ICANN staff has 
eliminated the possibility of having the workshop on Thursday morning because 
of the scheduling conflict raised by ALAC staff?

Thanks.

Kristina

registration abuse policies  workshop


Dear All,

Following our conference call last  Friday, please find attached the updated 
final version of the charter. There  is one remaining issue and that is the 
timeframe for the working group to  report back to the GNSO Council. Would 60 
days be reasonable? Please send your  comments / suggestions to the list. Once 
finalised, the charter will be  submitted to the GNSO Council for 
consideration. As agreed, staff will work on  a proposed motion for the GNSO 
Council that will be circulated in the coming  days.

In addition, I have created a separate document on the  registration abuse 
policies workshop programme for review. On our call, we  started discussing 
possible speakers for the different topics who have been  tentatively noted in 
this draft. For those of you that were not able to  participate in the call, 
please feel free to share your ideas and suggestions  with the group.

I spoke with the ALAC staff about the possibility of  organising the workshop 
on Thursday morning from 8.00 - 9.30 which would be  parallel to the ALAC 
summit closing ceremony. ALAC staff indicated that this  would be a major 
conflict as the issue of registration abuse is of great  interest to ALAC 
members. The only other viable alternative is Monday 2  February from 7.00 - 
9.30, which is not ideal, but seems to be the only option  at this moment.

There will be no call coming Friday as staff is  unavailable due to another 
meeting. If it is not possible to finalise  discussions on the charter and 
motion on the list, we will need to schedule  another call early next week as 
the motion and charter need to be submitted to  the GNSO at the latest by 12 
February in order to be considered at their next  meeting on 19 February.

With best regards,

Marika
