Re: [council] GNSO Website

[Stéphane Van Gelder <stephane.vangelder@xxxxxxxxx>]

+1 to Thomas and Mason's comments.

My sincere congratulations to all those who worked hard on making this new site 
possible.

FYI Councillors, a few days ago I asked Rob Hoggarth, who was staff leader on 
the new site project, to try and arrange a public session on the site in Prague 
as part of the general meeting agenda. The rationale being that, as one of the 
guiding principles behind the new site is to make understanding the GNSO and 
following our work easier, an explanation of the new site's features would be 
useful, especially to those attendants in Prague that are less familiar with 
our processes.

I think the new site is a good opportunity to increase people's understanding 
of the GNSO, and therefore hopefully their engagement in it.

Thanks,
