AW: AW: GNSO COUNCIL CONCERNS (Was - RE: [council] Re: ICANN Summit on Developing Countries - Invitation to a preparatory meeting in Singapore)


That's what I was taking into consideration. Almost nothing fits 100% to this 
council.
 

Kind regards
Wolf-Ulrich

        Hi,
        Wolf your suggestion is valid but not for noncom appointees to the GNSO 
Council, we are not members of constituencies or SG.
        Regards
        Olga

                Thanks for a very balanced suggestion Wolf. It may not suit 
everyone, but I think it does provide a workable solution for all GNSO groups. 

                
                Stéphane

                        As a council member I support this view.
                        From my business and my personal perspective I'm also 
very much interested in the Summit on Developing Countries in particular with 
regards to the internet and ICT development aspects.
                        To ensure council work as planned, I therefore like to 
suggest that the SG's/Constituencies - in case they like to attend the summit 
preparation - send Non-Council-members to this event.
                         
                        Kind regards
                        Wolf-Ulrich

                                All,
                                 
                                I find it a little concerning that meetings are 
being scheduled during the Council sessions.  Years back we deliberately 
created the weekend sessions to avoid conflict with other meetings.  Now, with 
the new gTLDs, GAC meetings and this new session, we have more conflicts than 
prior to having the weekend sessions.
                                 
                                I believe all council meetings should be 
mandatory for all councilors.  We are supposed to be the policy arm of ICANN 
leading the bottom-up policy development process.  But we cannot do our job 
without everyone being present even if it means having to forgo other meetings 
that may be of more interest to us.  The weekend sessions are vital to ensuring 
good discussion and debate on the substance so that we can bring those back to 
our constituencies and stakeholder groups.
                                 
                                I truly appreciate the efforts of Katim, the 
ICANN Board, the GAC and others to have this workshop focusing on Developing 
Countries and this is in no way a statement about that session, but am now very 
concerned at the facts that:
                                 
                                1.        We are starting the meeting at noon 
on Saturday to accommodate Councilors that arrive late
                                2.       We may not be meeting on Sunday 
afternoon given the recent announcement of the not-yet-scheduled Sunday 
afternoon with the Board-GAC; and
                                3.       This new session on Sunday morning.
                                 
                                So what time does that leave the Council on the 
weekend to get everything accomplished?  There will be final reports of the 
PDP-WT, PEDNR, IRTP-B, a preliminary issues report for the UDRP, a discussion 
paper on abusive domain name practices, and whatever motions come our way.   
                                 
                                So, what are the next steps?
                                 
                                Best regards,

                                As you might guess from prior discussions going 
back to Nairobi, I would be keenly interested in participating in this meeting, 
and not only to bask in Stéphane's reflected glory.  
                                 
                                Stéphane, what's our selection process?

                                        What and leave me talking to myself all 
alone in a big meeting room? ;)
                                         
                                        Joking aside, I understand the 
scheduling hell that we all have to go through at ICANN meetings so no worries 
there. I am sure your meeting will have some Councillors in attendance, and 
hopefully some will also stay and keep me company as well ;)

                                        Thanks for your e-mail, and sorry for 
the conflict.  ICANN meetings are always like that because there's some much 
going on.  However, it would be great if other GNSO Council reps, other than 
yourself, can attend.
                                        
                                        Have a great week, and best wishes!

                                        I am copying your message to the GNSO 
Council list so that everyone is aware of this meeting.
                                         
                                        I note with some dismay, however, that 
your planned meeting on the morning of Sunday 19 will clash with our GNSO 
weekend sessions. This may prevent some Councillors from attending what sounds

                                        Dear all,
                                         
                                        I am writing to invite you to send two 
representatives from your SO/AC/group to attend a preparatory meeting to help 
organize a proposed ICANN Summit on Developing Countries.
                                         
                                        A number of ICANN stakeholders, and 
myself, have been having online discussions since early last month about having 
an ICANN Summit on Developing Countries.  The attached file is the original 
proposal for the Summit, which is aimed at providing the ICANN community an 
opportunity to have an in-depth discussion on developing countries, their role 
in ICANN, and the way forward.
                                         
                                        In view of the fact that the Oct. 2011 
ICANN annual public meeting will be held in Dakar, Senegal, the aim is to have 
the Summit there.  The Summit will include presentations and discussions on the 
following topics:

                                        1.      A backgrounder on developing 
countries (what is a "developing country" or "least developed country," 
socio-economic development in these countries, Internet and ICT development in 
these countries) 
                                        2.      ICANN and developing countries 
(ICANN's relationship with ccTLDs, international organizations of developing 
countries, governments, NGOs, and businesses in developing countries, etc) 
                                        3.      Participation of Developing 
Countries in ICANN: Challenges, Opportunities, and the Way Forward 

                                        The meeting in Singapore will have 
about 20 or so invitees from the SOs, ACs, liaisons, other stakeholders, as 
well as some ICANN board members and staff.  The tentative agenda for the 
Singapore meeting will consist of the following:

                                        1.      What the proposed Summit will 
discuss? 
                                        2.      Who will be on the panel of 
presenters? 
                                        3.      The format for the Summit 
                                        4.      (S)election of Summit 
Organizing Committee (SOC) 

                                        Additional details of the Singapore 
meeting are as follows:
