Dear Colleagues: Negotiations with the hotel and the Registries
Constituency have been tedious and involved. The North East
blackout exacerbated the process.<br><br>
Here is the current announcement. There may be additional
announcements as we flesh out some of the issues in this current
posting. <br><br>
Please write to me directly if you or others from your firm intend to
attend the meetings.<br><br>
Respectfully submitted, <br>
BobC, <br>
Secretary, RC<br><br>

<dd>ANNOUNCEMENT OF MEETING IN MARINA DEL REY - SEPTEMBER 12
<dd>
<dd>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.
<dd>
<dd>
<dd>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.
<dd>
<dd>
<dd>Prior to the Constituency meeting - on September 11th, (a) registrars
and registries (providers) participating in the ICANN Transfers
Assistance Group and
<dd>(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.
<dd>We would encourage people to arrive on the 11th, so we will plan a
social function as well.
<dd>
<dd>
<dd>The venue will be the Marriott in Marina del Rey. We are
securing special rates of $144/night <font face="arial" size=2>for
Friday, Sept.12th at:</font><font face="arial" size=2 color="#0000FF">
