Dear ICANN Community Members:

This is a reminder for those interested in receiving an update on ICANN gTLD

held for the convenience of our global community; please indicate your
choice in your email.  Material from these sessions will be publicly posted
for those interested but unable to attend.

*Brief Session Description*:
Through brief presentations and a question & answer period, this webinar
will provide an update on ongoing GNSO and ccNSO activities, including a

processes, and other working group activities.  Updates will be provided on:

- IDN ccTLD policy development process

The webinar is scheduled for 90 minutes, and will be conducted in English
only at this time. The content will be presented in PowerPoint along with a
dial-in conference bridge for audio.

There will be time at the end of the session for Q&A. During the course of
the webinar, questions may be submitted using the Q&A function of Adobe
Connect. Should we run out of time or if you have additional questions after
the session, please send them via email to *policy-staff@xxxxxxxxx*.
