Larisa, As discussed during our meeting in Los Angeles last week, ATRT2 will need to meet toward the end of September for a 2 day face-to-face meeting. The purpose of the face-to-face meeting will be to reach conclusions on the draft Recommendations that ATRT2 will put out for public comment in mid-October. The value of face-to-face discussions at this juncture of our work is important to reach fact-based consensus conclusions to put our for comment. With respect to the ICANN meeting in Buenos Aires, this is a final opportunity to meet with the S.O.s and A.C.s to hear directly from them with respect to ICANN's acceptability and transparency and the ATRT2 Report and Recommendations. We hope that there is sufficient budget to allow this work of the ATRT2 to be completed. Regards, Brian
