Re: SV: [council] Beijing / Meetings with GAC & ccNSO

["Petter Rindforth" <petter.rindforth@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,
 
 
I ecco Wolfgang and Jonathan and strongly support to meet with both GAC
and the ccNSO.
 
As to the ccNSO, many of the issues we discuss within GNSO also
naturally relates to the work that has been done (or should have been
considered) in many ccTLDs – especially all of those that are also
advertised or at least used as “generic”, such as .it, .nu, .tv, etc,
etc.
 
One point to “sell in” our meeting with ccNSO is that we can in fact
learn from each other, and perhaps therewith also win time on certain
projects and (from both sides) avoid mistakes.
 
 
Best,
Petter
