RE: [council] Establishment of Programme Committee for ICANN meeting in Vancouver

Bruce, I would like to volunteer to join Glen on this work initiative, in
carrying forward on the volunteer role I was playing. I think that it is
helpful to have a Councilor engaged, as well as our excellent Secretariat.

Vancouver

Hello All,
 
We have been asked to nominate a person to represent the GNSO on the
Programme Committee for the ICANN meeting in Vancouver (see email below).
I am pleased to see that the ICANN staff have adopted our suggestion to form
a program committee.
 
I recommend that the GNSO appoint the GNSO Secretariat (Glen De Saint Géry)
as our representative on the committee.

Glen has a good understanding of the requirements of each GNSO Constituency,
as well as the GNSO Council meetings and task force meetings.  As a Council
we can identify the meetings that we wish to have in Vancouver, and the
constraints (ie identify which meetings should be available for the whole
ICANN community to attend, which should allow all members of the GNSO to
attend, and which can be held in parallel).   I can develop a simple
spreadsheet of GNSO meetings and constraints as a starting point, and the
GNSO Council members can provide input to that spreadsheet of requirements.

Regards,
Bruce Tonkin

Subject: ICANN Meetings - Establishment of Program Committee



In order to facilitate better coordination of events scheduled to take place
at ICANN Board Meetings, a program committee is being assembled from the
various supporting organizations and advisory committees to assist me in the
preparation of the schedule.  This group will have regularly scheduled
conference calls and a mailing list to better encourage coordinated
discussion.  I would like to hold our first conference call during the week
of August 22. I  would ask that you nominate someone to represent your group
on the program committee.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
