This is a call for someone to help organize and perhaps moderate a one-time session at ICANN61.

I did not use the term sponsoring in any specific way. I just meant that the ALAC would be one of the groups that was advocating this session and would contribute to it.

Hi Alan,

Is this in a sense a ccwg or do they need someone to help them organise a session at the next ICANN meeting? I can't figure out the sponsoring part. I'd be be  able to sponsor with knowledge and information on the subject.

I have a deep interest in OD and have followed ICANNs developments. I have a good understanding of the platform it uses and the strategy on distribution. On the other side of the world here, I train government and other sectors on the production, curation and distribution of open data and it's related public policy activities.

This is a really important initiative.

See https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/odi-pilot-2017-06-27-en and https://www.icann.org/news/blog/icann-kicks-off-open-data-initiative-pilot for more details.

Is there someone who would like to work with them on developing and sponsoring this session?

Subject: [SOAC-Leaders-ICANNMeeting-Planning] Submitting a proposal for a CC session on ICANN Open Data Efforts

Dear all,

I thought I reach out to you to inform you about NCSG's intention to submit a proposal for a cross-community session on ICANN's open data efforts. If any of the groups want to join us as the co-organizer, please contact me to work on a description and put your name down as a co-organizer on the proposal. Of course if no one volunteers at this stage and if the proposal gets accepted we will reach out to you again to organize the session in a cross-community fashion.

Best
