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.

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

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.
