8.1 Review suggestion for full day equivalent session on New gTLD recommendations
It has been suggested that it would be useful to do a full day's meeting (perhaps split into two sessions on different days) to cover all of the recommendations in the New gTLD PDP that will have been sent on to the board by then. Different council members could take leadership of discussion section on each of the recommendations. 8.2 - suggestion for restructuring Public Forum + Public meetings Proposal to try an experiment with the Public Forum and public council meeting in LA. Instead of the current arrangement of a meeting for listening and then a meeting for talking, we could divide a 4 hour meeting up into topical sections. Each topic could then be structured to include:
- Constituency Overview on the Topic
- Public comment on the topic
- Council discussion and resolution on the Topic.
