RE: [registrars] ICANN Meeting

[Tim Ruiz <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

<div>Hello Tom,</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I agree for the most part. I would add that having a smaller set of
topics to discuss would allow us to focus more fully on the important
issues. The presentation and/or materials that apply to each topic
should be circulated in advance. And there should be a clearly stated
objective for each agenda item. We need to know where we are and where
we want to be in order to be effective at getting there.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>If the resultant agenda dictates a day and a half or two
days,&nbsp;then I would be on board with that.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>

[registrars] ICANN Meeting<BR>From: "Thomas Keller"

registrars@xxxxxxxx<BR><BR>Hi all,<BR><BR>talking to fellow registrars
after attending "yet another ICANN meeting"<BR>we came up with the idea
that it would serve the purpose of having a<BR>lively and informed
discusion if we would change the meetings setup.<BR>Since most of the
participants are around for more than one day we should<BR>take this
chance to be more productive and extend the meeting to two<BR>days. On
the first day all existing issues should be presented in
depth<BR>neccesarry to fully understand the constrains of them. This
would also<BR>be a good time to have other informal meetings like cross
constituency <BR>meetings and sales pitches. THe second day should than
serve for<BR>discussions around the issues presented on the first day.
It might be<BR>a wise idea to have a "free" day in between the two
sessions to allow<BR>for offline discussions.<BR><BR>I as well as
others believe that this would raise the effectiness of our<BR>meetings
quite a bit and would enable us to actually get work
done.<BR><BR>Best,<BR><BR>tom<BR><BR>--<BR><BR>Thomas
