The Board has not met since our last ALAC meeting. The agenda for its Dec. 11 meeting is below. Note particularly the discussion on the GNSO restructuring and the Role of Individual Users in GNSO. I will gladly include ALAC and At-Large community perspectives in that discussion. We are also to get a report from Denise on the ALAC Summit. Please let me know if there is anything you wish to add to those or any other item of discussion. --Wendy <http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/> 11 December 2008 Special Meeting of the ICANN Board of Directors Proposed Agenda 1.
