["Austin, Donna" <Donna.Austin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David, all

If I could make one plea on this topic it is that we go into Meeting B with an 
open mind and save the constructive feedback for after the meeting.

Meeting B will be significantly different from Meetings A and C, in that it is 
intended to be about policy and will be conducted over 4 days. If it transpires 
that Meeting B does not live up to expectations and allow for policy work  to 
be progressed to the extent that this would have been achieved with an 
additional day via the Pilot Program, then we can discuss how to move forward 
to best address any shortcomings.

We need to be careful not to shoot the messenger. Nick is implementing 
recommendations that came from the Meeting Strategy Working Group (a cross 
community work group that had representation from across the community 
including the GNSO and the GAC) and was approved by the Board. As a member of 
the MSWG, I feel very strongly about being able to give Meeting B its best 
opportunity for success or failure.

Thanks for your understanding.

Donna

Which means option a) - Nick does not understand what the Pilot Program is, and 
is confusing incorporporating PDP work into meeting B with incorporating the 
Pilot Program into meeting B (which there are no plans to do).

In short, a very disappointing answer.

Hi David -

We can confirm with Nick, but I don’t think the implication was for the 
face-to-face to encompass an entire day (25%!) of Meeting B.  Only that the 
topic itself would be included in to the schedule/agenda for the Policy Forum.  
Something we can discuss further on our call in a few hours.

Thanks-

J.

Absorbing the full day Working Groups Pilot program into the schedule implies 
that they believe it is practical to ask Working Group members will take an 
extended period (usually a full day or nearly so for the Pilot Program so far) 
out from an already short and overpacked meeting.

I am finding this hard to understand in terms other than Nick is either a) 
lacking in understanding of what the pilot program consists of and is confusing 
it with more routine policy work or b) has entirely unrealistic ideas about the 
scheduling of working group members or c) is making some kind of joke.

I’d frankly he rather had just said no than make this rather impractical 
suggestion of incorporation.

Regards

David

Objet : [council] FW: [gnso-chairs] Letter to James Bladel_13Apr16.pdf

Councilor Colleagues -

Please see attached for a letter form Nick Tomasso, responding to our earlier 
request regarding a face-to-face PDP meeting.   During our discussions in 
Marrakech and with smaller groups, we have tried to balance the value of having 
these sessions at ICANN meetings, while trying to remain faithful to the 
intention of the "Meeting B” policy forum concept.

As for Nick’s response, I would like to draw your attention to this statement 
in particular:
"It is anticipated that the PDP Working Groups Pilot Program will be absorbed 
into the 'Meeting B' schedule rather than having an additional day specifically 
for that purpose."

I agree that the Policy Forum concept must recognize the importance of 
advancing the work of ongoing PDPs, but would emphasize incorporating these in 
to the 4 day schedule, rather than add an optional 5th day.

I welcome thoughts from others on this topics and Nicks’ letter, and I’m 
looking forward to further discussions on tomorrow’s call.

Thank you,

J.
