From: Jonathan Robinson [mailto:jonathan.robinson@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 21 March 2014 11:22 To: council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: GNSO Council Meeting with ICANN Board All, I have spoken with Steve Crocker and out of that conversation, a proposed structure of our 90 minutes meeting with the board has emerged (see below). Note that there is specific scope for raising key questions / issues with the board and the structure anticipates some of these. I propose to deliver the GNSO Council update using a few slides if necessary. Any thoughts or comments on fleshing this out are welcome, particularly on "specific questions" and "current challenges / issues". Thanks, Jonathan --- GNSO Council * GNSO Council update to ICANN Board (10 mins) o Brief description of GNSO Council and GNSO process improvements. Focus on reality v. possible perception. o Specific highlight of GAC / GNSO work on early GAC engagement in the policy process. * Specific questions the GNSO Council has for the ICANN Board, i.e. the GNSO Council's "asks" if not covered elsewhere on agenda (15 mins) * Highlight current challenges GNSO is currently dealing with. This might include the pace of change, concerns about top-down vs bottom up, etc. (15 mins) ICANN Board * ICANN Board update on how the Board is working, where our focus is, etc. Division of labor and coordination with the CEO.
