Jonathan,
Within the ISPCP we favor option 1.

All,

See below and please provide any feedback you may have ASAP.

I know some feel very strongly about the public forum but, given the High Level 
(Government) meeting taking place on Monday in London, a once-off schedule 
change may be a good idea?

What is being asked for  is guidance or feedback on 1 or 2 as a preferred 
option.

Thanks,


Jonathan

Folks,

Sally Costerton and I thank you all for your helpful responses to my earlier 
note on the idea of changing the Thursday agenda to accommodate more time for 
the public dialogue we need to deliver at our forthcoming London meeting.  We 
are acutely conscious that the combination several major one-off events - the 
High Level Government Meeting (HLGM)  and the two public consultations are 
putting significant pressure on the agenda for ICANN50.


We are juggling trying to maximise flexibility for SOACs to do their work, 
access to the HLGM and the need to provide slots for Hot Topics for cross 
community dialogue with minimal agenda conflict.


Having considered your feedback and consulted with staff, we suggest two 
options below.   Please pick one and let us know over the next day or two.



 1.  We make the changes to Thursday as suggested and support this by running 
an additional IANA stewardship transition session on Monday after the opening 
session and provide support to the SOAC groups to find alternative slots on the 
agenda in addition to the early Thursday slot as needed.  We pilot remote hubs 
using two-way video and hopefully a YouTube channel.  The use of remote hubs 
actually doubled participation at NETmundial so could be a real opportunity to 
diversify input.



 2.  We keep Thursday as it usually runs with a four hour public forum and run 
two consultation sessions - one on the IANA stewardship transition and one on 
the ICANN accountability dialogue on a 'normal' schedule - this would be Monday 
or Wednesday to get time that is minimally conflicted.  This would be much like 
Singapore.  We would not set up the video remote hubs in this case or possibly 
the YouTube channel.  This would maintain the full Public Forum but reduce the 
time and attention for the two consultation sessions.  Also the Monday sessions 
will have to run parallel to the HLGM and we know that UKG have requested a 
session on IANA oversight transition led by Larry Strickling.


Finally we are very aware that the community wants to improve the issue of 
agenda conflict at ICANN meetings.  This topic was addressed in detail by the 
Meeting Strategy Working Group which recently had its report out for public 
comment.  There was a previous opportunity to see this but in case you haven’t, 
not here is a copy of the recommendations 
http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/participation/mswg/recommendations-25feb14-en.pdf

If you can let us know which option you prefer over the next 48 hours we would 
appreciate it.  If we go for option 1 we need to let the community know early 
next week so that they can confirm travel and we can start the call to set up 
the hubs.


Thanks,


Steve Crocker and Sally Costerton
