[council] Protecting the Rights of Others Working Group (PRO-WG): Updated information
ColleaguesI wanted to provide you with some updated information on the proposed Tuesday 20 Feb 07h30 (LA time) for the PRO-WG. I also needed to amend an error I made in pointing you to an old version of the proposed statement of work -- my apologies for that. We have received notification that there will be at least seven volunteers (some who are not GNSO constituency members) participating on the call. Please forward this message to your constituency members asking for volunteers. Here is the information you will need to actively participate.http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg03198.html -- see the approved statement of work from the GNSO Council call's minutes of 1 February 2007 and the confirmation from the GNSO Council Chair that included the proposed amendments from Chuck Gomes (http:// gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg03201.html) For ease of reference, I have attached Chuck's suggested edits.I will be convening the first meeting of the group on Tuesday 20 Feb at 7:30 LA, 10:30 am EST, 15:30 UTC, 16:30 CET. At the first meeting we will: 1. appoint a chair of the group 2. review the existing Statement of Work and agree its final form3. agree the first tranche of activities to be completed between now and the ICANN Lisbon meeting The rules of the Working Group will be similar to those of the IDN-WG (found at http://gnso.icann.org/announcements/announcement-18nov06.htm) Can I urge you please to consult with your constituencies and propose participants for the group? It is MOST likely that there will be an aggressive schedule of activities to support the work as this work is being conducted in the context of the new TLDs Committee activities and is time critical. This will mean small working groups or individual efforts and, at a minimum, a weekly conference call. Please respond to the GNSO secretariat to indicate that you or your constituency representative wants to be included in a new public mailing list. Kind regards and, of course, any questions, please call or email. Liz Attachment:
