[council] Board - Policy Staff - GNSO Council topics

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

The top 2 topics were:

1.  with 11 in favor: Critical Issues for new gTLDs - Geographic names  
at 1st and 2nd levels
2. with 10 in favor: Critical Issues for new gTLDs - The IRT Report

and in third:

3. with 8 in favor: Restructuring issues: By-laws and Charters

the other topics were distant also-ran with 0 and 2 votes.


So have decided the number one issue:

Critical Issues for new gTLDs - Geographic names at 1st and 2nd levels

Will be the main topic at the dinner

and the number 2 issue

Critical Issues for new gTLDs - The IRT Report

will be the dessert topic.


I am assuming that the number 3 topic will be available for people who  
decide they have nothing further to say on the previous two topics or  
who are looking for some light banter during cocktails or in the bar  
after dinner, but will not schedule it for the dinner.
I am hoping, however, there will be chance for all of the Stakeholder  
Groups to discuss their pending charters with the SIC and the Board at  
some time during the week in Sydney.  With having resolved most of the  
issue on the By-Laws in the DT, I think the charter issues are largely  
SG specific in any case.
Thanks for taking part in the poll.
