Gee, Mike, didn't you read the FY2010 budget as approved by the Board? I
thought the only two constituencies that exist are the contracted party
constituencies. After all, they're the only ones mentioned in the budget. (See
Constituency Support sections of the Organizational Activities (Section 4.7, p.
11) and Operating Plan Activities (Appendix A (A.7), p. 34-35)).
Setting aside the irony of only mentioning 2 of 6 constituencies in the budget
at a time when we're told that increasing the breadth and depth of stakeholder
participation is an organizational goal, I agree that it would be valuable to
have the same special access to information and presentations. Personally
though, I'd prefer to participate remotely. I already spend about 1 month each
year traveling to and attending ICANN meetings. That's enough for me.
There is a little value in being excluded, though. I've definitely gotten
mileage out of describing these meetings to the outside world; if we were
included, I wouldn't be able to do that. . .

Thanks Glen.
Just curioius, when is the next regional meeting of the non-contracting parties
scheduled? Many of us would be very interested to have some of these same
discussions and staff presentations, without the contracting parties around.
Such meetings might surely enhance knowledge and foster better cooperation
between ICANN and its NON-contracted stakeholders.
Really, are these regional meetings really necessary when there are 3 ICANN
meetings a year already? And the contracting parties constantly and
ubiquitously complaining about travel funding for ICANN Staff and volunteers??
Also, no mention of the Afilias-sponsored Major League Baseball game in this
note, but is it a conflict of interest for contract parties to provide perks to
ICANN Staff? (I presume some were sponsored, but I do not know.) If so,
should they be publicly disclosed somewhere? Is there a policy on that?
Just curious, as it seems there ought to be one if there's not.
Thanks,
Mike

Toronto Presentations Published
25 August 2009
On 20-21 August 2009, ICANN hosted its North American Registry/Registrar
Regional Event in Toronto, Ontario. Remote participation for the event was made
available via Adobe Connect and an audio conference bridge.
The regional event model was introduced in 2006 as a means to inform and
educate gTLD registries and ICANN-accredited registrars about ICANN activities
and processes that may impact their operations. These events also broaden
participation in the ICANN multi-stakeholder governance model for registry and
registrar staff members who do not generally attend ICANN's annual public
meetings. ICANN subject matter experts facilitated discussions on issues such
as gTLD registry continuity, contractual compliance, new gTLDs, GNSO policy
activities, security initiatives, the 2009 Registrar Accreditation Agreement,
and the terminated registrar transition process.
Such discussions enhance knowledge and foster better cooperation between ICANN
and its contracted stakeholders.
The Toronto event also featured a session on registry/registrar areas of
interest that was facilitated by David Maher, Chair, Registry Constituency, and
Mason Cole, Chair, Registrar Constituency. The chairs co-led a discussion about
how the two groups might work better together on joint areas of interest such
as electing leaders for the GNSO Council and engaging in discussions when new
registry service requests, submitted via the Registry Services Evaluation
Process (RSEP), have the potential to impact registrars.
In the interest of transparency, the presentations are being made public.
