[council] Briefings on Meetings Reform paper

[Glen de Saint Géry <Glen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Explanation: Should ICANN change the number of meetings that it holds and their 
location? The Meetings Reform Paper asks the community to consider that the 
number of meetings be reduced from three to two per year - a change that would 
commence from 2010.

The paper also proposes that one of the two meetings be held in locations that 
are transport hubs. The locations would need to be the subject of a separate 
consultation, but would be rotated through the existing ICANN predetermined 
regions.

There has not been substantive change to meetings processes or the frequency of 
the meetings since the organization's inception. The purpose of the paper is to 
encourage debate on any matters to do with meetings that the community may wish 
to raise, but to especially consider issues concerning the frequency of 
meetings and their location.

Aside from this public comment period, consultations will also be held at the 
Paris meeting directly with
Committees and Councils and there will also be the opportunity to comment via 
the public forum.
