Whether you plan to participate in the upcoming ICANN meeting in Prague 
remotely or in person, you're invited to an update on the background and 
current status of each major policy issue currently under discussion in ICANN.

The ICANN Policy Staff will provide a briefing on Thursday 14 June at 12.00 UTC 
and Thursday 14 June at 19.00 UTC, summarizing policy issues across the 
different ICANN Supporting Organizations, namely the Generic Names Supporting 
Organization (GNSO), Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) and 
Address Supporting Organization (ASO). Amongst other topics, updates will be 
provided on:

 *   Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy
 *   WHOIS
 *   RAA Improvements
 *   Consumer Choice, Competition and Innovation
 *   Study Group on Use of Names for Countries and Territories
 *   Framework of Interpretation Working Group for the delegation and 
re-delegation of ccTLDs
 *   Joint DNS Security and Stability Analysis Working Group
 *   Participation and Engagement activities in Prague

In addition, staff will provide a briefing on the ALAC's activities related to 
current policy development issues of the Supporting Organizations.

The two sessions are duplicates, scheduled to accommodate different time zones. 
Each session, scheduled to run for 90 minutes, will be conducted in English 
only. The meeting will be run in Adobe Connect with a slide presentation along 
with a dial-in conference bridge for audio.

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions at the end of each 
session. During the course of the webinar, questions may be submitted using the 
chat function of Adobe Connect. If you are not able to participate in either of 
the live sessions, the recording of the session will be made available shortly 
after the meeting. The policy staff is always available to answer any questions 
that you email to policy-staff@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:policy-staff@xxxxxxxxx>.
