CALL FOR COMMENT: Fwd: [soac-discussion] ICANN/SO-AC LEADERS Brainstorming Collaboration
Dear all, please find below a forwarded message from Sally Costerton and David Olive regarding the follow-up of a meeting that took place over a week ago. Apologies for not forwarding this right away - but this somehow fell through. Evan Leibovitch was on the call and you'll see his intervention voicing the point of view of many in our community. Nonetheless, please see the proposal below and comment on: https://community.icann.org/x/6haMAg We'll build a Statement from your comments. The Statement is to be filed by Monday 7 October 2013 so please send your comments by the end of this week, Friday 4 October 2013. I realise this is a very short timeline, but this really affects you and your work during the ALAC meetings rather than ALSes. Even though - I am surprised to have seen this "Brainstorming Session" since I thought there already was a Meetings Strategy WG in place to look at these problematics.

OLIVE:* * * * * Dear SO-AC Leaders: Thanks to those of you who were able to participate in Thursday's ICANN/SO-AC Leaders Collaborative Brainstorming Conference Call on the Buenos Aires Meeting schedule. An overview of our discussion follows. The changes call participants agreed to pursue, with further consultation, for the Buenos Aires Meeting schedule are: · Establishing a 90-minute, cross-constituency, subject-based session developed and run by the SO-AC leadership team and held Monday afternoon in the main meeting room. Initial thoughts on two potential topics were: o Policy vs. Implementation, and o Public Interest Commitment Issues We would appreciate your reactions on whether or not you would support holding this session, as well as the potential session topics to be discussed. If you wish to proceed with this concept, the Policy team is ready to assist you in organizing your discussions and planning for such a session, as you deem appropriate. · Running a new gTLD (GDD) track on Monday in parallel to high-interest topic sessions taking place in the main meeting room. · Moving the Public Forum from Thursday afternoon to Thursday morning in an effort to increase attendance. · Adding timeslots for high-interest topics and community sessions on Thursday afternoon. A suggested change that will not be implemented for Buenos Aires is a full day of SO-AC reports to the community on Wednesday. Participants agreed that there is not time to make significant changes to the Tuesday and Wednesday schedules. For those of you who were unable to participate in the call, a transcript AND chat room comments are attached. A link to an audio recording of the call is below. Please provide your thoughts about these ideas at your earliest convenience but no later than Monday, 7 October. We look forward to your comments, and a continuing dialogue as we strive to improve the ICANN Meeting experience for the community. We'll look to arrange some specific follow-up calls to discuss the Monday afternoon session in detail.

I should think Evan's comments - in this and other threads - writes the statement. All he need do is collate and format. -Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Wed, Oct 2, 2013 at 3:47 AM, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl@gih.com>wrote:
