>>  Please see below a very late request for GNSO participation in a panel
>> that will be discussing the following in Nairobi:
>>
>> "a) What are the three most important improvements ICANN can make to its
>> public participation processes to facilitate greater engagement by
>> developing world stakeholders?
>>
>> b) Should ICANN incorporate a greater focus on the developing world in its
>> work and if so, how?
>>
>> c) How can the work of ICANN be given greater relevance where there is low
>> Internet density per capita - and what priority should be given to reaching
>> stakeholders in countries with the lowest Internet connection density? (see
>> the World Bank statistical link under "Materials and References" below to
>> look up statistical information of the kind referenced)."
>>
>> Note that this conflicts with the "Registration Abuse Policies Initial
>> Report Information Session" on Wednesday afternoon in Nairobi.
>>
>> Because of the late notice on this, it really is not possible to develop a

>> what they understand to be views of GNSO community members.
>>
>> Is there anyone who would be interested and willing to participate on this

>> personal answers to the three questions to allow other Councilors to comment
>> between now and 10 March and thereby obtain a little broader GNSO input
>> before the session.

>> Dear SO and AC leaders:
>>
>> On Wednesday 10th from 1600-1730 local time in Nairobi, the Board's Public
>> Participation Committee will hold its public meeting.
>>
>> The PPC has asked me to ask you if a representative from each of the ACs
>> and SOs would care to be  a part of the session by participating in a panel,
>> alongside the members of the PPC, to lead the discussion  of the various
>>  items on the agenda, and of course to participate in the discussion
>> directly. If one of you, or someone you wish to nominate from your
>> community, is unable to attend in-room we can arrange for  you to be able to
>> participate remotely via audio bridge.
>>
>> The full agenda may be found at http://nbo.icann.org/node/8950; I have
>> not  pasted it below since the hyperlinks would not be  usable and as you
>> will see when you browse the agenda the hyperlinks are quite integral to the
>> whole.
>>
>> Finally, I hope you will accept my apologies in advance for  posting the
>> agenda assuming that some members of the SOs and ACs would be willing to
>> participate as described. Given the subject, it seemed that I would be on
>> safe ground to  make that assumption.
