one- the time is short, and this meeting is the opportunity to have a 2 way dialogue with the 3-4 board members that we will meet. So I think that we need to shorten the list considerably. 3 or 4 topics that are timesensitive and board-related would be good so that we can have some indepth discussions. So, I'd remove domain tasting, which is moving aloing. Whois, which would be premature to raise with the board now. Geo-tlds can be rolled into the general discussion on gTLDs, and let's do that at 1pm at the workshop, take it off this meeting. Budget is a perennial issue for us, so let's put it front and center and give it the time to discuss thoroughly. I'd also suggest that we do intros in general rather than divide into NomCom and RALO. More later.
