RE: [registrars] Marina del Rey Registrar Meeting - September 12

["Tim Ruiz" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can a summary of the "Briefing on proposed interim solution to Port 43"
be posted to the list within the next week or so?

Also, may issues that we want to bring before the Registry
representatives be presented here on the list prior to the meeting? I
won't be able to attend but have at least one issue I'd like to raise
that I have not heard much discussion on before.

Tim

Thank you for the clarification.  Let me resend the meeting
announcement, clarified!  Also, I've taken off any meetings that are not
part of the formal agenda, again for clarification.


ANNOUNCEMENT OF MEETING IN MARINA DEL REY - SEPTEMBER 12
 
While we would encourage everyone to attend the next official ICANN
meeting in Carthage, Tunisia on October 27-31, 2003, we have heard from
many registrars that they are unlikely to attend.  
 
 
In order to support registrar participation and foster dynamic
discussion of issues, the Constituency has voted to hold an interim
informal meeting on Friday, September 12th.  No decisions would be made
at this interim meeting, so anyone unable to make it should not feel
disadvantaged. Moreover, we will endeavor to set up telecommunication
links.  
 
 
Prior to the Constituency meeting - on September 11th, (a) registrars
and registries (providers) participating in the ICANN Transfers
Assistance Group and 
(b) the GNSO Council Whois group will try to schedule meetings on those
issues.  These are not constituency meetings, but the constituency will
be updated on those issues on the 12th.  
 
 
Additionally, some of the registries may offer to hold marketing
presentations for registrars on the 11th.  We would encourage people to
arrive on the 11th, so we will plan a social function as well.
 
 
The venue will be the Marriott in Marina del Rey.  We are securing
special rates of $144/night and will provide contact details shortly.
Please let us know if you are attending by emailing the ExCom (cc'd
here).
 

The meeting would be conducted in interactive workshop-style sessions
where appropriate, with guest expert speakers invited for some of the
topics. We will coordinate with the registry constituency, and hold a
joint meeting for half of the day, and a separate constituency meeting
for the other half.  
 

The initial proposed agenda is below. Please send us any additional
agenda item requests by August 15th.  Anyone proposing to speak should
provide a presentation with a summary of no longer than 1 page 
 
by September 8.

Ross,

This is the group that ICANN is setting up to assist in the
implementation
of the transfer recommendations. I believe Elana may have accidentially
mislabeled it. It should be titled "Transfers Assistance Group". Please
refer to Paul's testimony before the Senate where he made reference to
it. I
believe I had provided you some documentation on this group while you
were
on vacation.

Mike
