Seun Are you being serious? I have ccNSO Council pre-meetings on Sunday, TechDay Monday, and the whole two days of ccNSO on Tuesday and Wednesday, culminating in the Council meeting. I am told that some anonumous "leaders" have -- at the very last minute - made such major changes as to make my further participation almost impossible (since I would be so behind the curve after missing four days worth of "work".). The "getting on a plane" comment is simple -- people are now starting to be in transit for ICANN. Travel arrangements have already been made and may be unchangeable for some. This is downright disrespectful. On 13/10/15 11:02, Dr Eberhard W Lisse wrote:
For some of us, flying is not the important part of an ICANN Meeting.

Hello People,
There is no violation of process here, lets be realistic, its important to interact with the community as much as possible in Dublin and if the Co-Chairs have been able to get some more time slots through their interactions with the rightful owners of the spaces (SO/AC leaders), I think it should be a good news for us. Noting in the normal agenda of the CCWG has changed, in that the long f2f meeting still holds on Friday and the other slots does not extend beyond the normal ICANN meeting days so i don't see how that affects anyone getting on plane.
I don't think its within the CCWG's charter to secure normal SO/AC time-slots without consulting with them first. Now that the consultation has happened its left to this group to decide whether they don't want it or not.

Colleagues
I strongly object to this behind-the-scenes way of working.
Can you please list (a) the "AC/SO leaders" and the powers they have in the Charter to do this.
This appears to be to be DELIBERATELY exclusionary. Many of us participatns have already got committments for most of this five day long meeting.
It is ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE to make such a decision as people are already getting on aeroplanes.
I wish to invoke the Reconsideration procedure, please.
