Re: [council] Preliminary planning for ICANN58


Dear Amr,
if we want to make both Lac and Africa profit from PDP development (which I would greatly support), we should be meeting in the Canary Islands or the Azores for the benefit of both sides. 

Cheers

Hi,
And if holding meeting B in Africa and LAC encourages stakeholders from those regions to engage with the GNSO’s PDP, then all the better. 

Thanks.

Hi Carlos
While your suggestion makes perfect sense the reality is that the smaller meeting B, ie Policy Meetings, were designed to enable ICANN to host meetings in locations predominately in the African and LAC regions that can no longer host the larger ICANN meetings.
Prior to the establishment of the Meeting Strategy Working Group (MSWG), Nick Tomasso published a proposal suggesting that hub locations be used, although Nick called them Consolidated Meeting Locations, and adjusted the rotation through regions. Nick's proposal was rejected and the MSWG was established.
Nick's proposal is available at: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/meetings-proposal-02oct12-en.pdf
The MSWG also discussed the idea of hubs as well but agreed to continue regional rotation.

Thank you James.
But here we are working on the 2nd derivative: ICANN hubs for Policy
(short) Meetings.
Don´t know if this was also discarded.

Just a note that the Meeting Strategy Working Group examined the idea of “rotating hubs”, and rejected them. Mostly by folks from smaller 
and/or more distant locations who were concerned that ICANN would be
permanently absent from their region.

I don’t agree, but that was their finding.

Thanks –

J.

   Ah ok, so the ICANN hubs.
   That makes a lot of sense from a cost and logistics perspective.

       ICANN hubs: LA, Istambul and Singapore.

       I assume that those places are central located in terms of
airlines
       logistics, already have a minimum of ICANN staff available,
facilites,
       etc. and would greatly reduce the cost to set up meetings (A
recent
       meeting of the CCT-RT in Washington DC had to fly in as many
ICANN staff
       members as RT members, which calls for more reasonable places
to meet,
particularly for mainle “working” meetings like the Policy 
Format
       calls for).

Which locations would you see as being “hubs”?
