We are currently organizing the BC and CSG agendas, and the public agenda for all of the different meetings is not posted yet, but based on previous meetings I would recommend being there on Friday evening if possible to attend the weekend GNSO Working Sessions. On Sunday the CSG hosts an early morning meeting, normally with the two Board Members from the House. This is yet to be confirmed for the Durban meeting. For Durban the CSG has also asked for extra time either before or after the Council meeting on Sunday, which is yet to be scheduled. For the rest of the week the BC has the following meetings scheduled: · Monday: a closed meeting at lunchtime, · Tuesday: the Cross Constituency Breakfast with the GAC, open CSG meeting in preparation for the CSG meeting with the Board, the CSG Meeting with the Board, and finally the BC open meeting in the afternoon. · Wednesday: BC closed meeting at lunchtime Other than the BC meetings, I would recommend staying for the GNSO Public Meeting which generally takes place on Wednesday and for the Public Forum which was on Thursday in Beijing. Dates and times for all meetings will be confirmed once the ICANN Meeting Schedule is posted online. Please let me know if you have any further questions, -- Kind Regards, Benedetta Rossi BC Secretariat bc-secretariat@icann.org<http://bc-secretariat@icann.org> https://community.icann.org/display/gnsobc/Home www.bizconst.org<http://www.bizconst.org> Da: owner-bc-gnso@icann.org<mailto:owner-bc-gnso@icann.org> [mailto:owner-bc-gnso@icann.org] Per conto di Hansen, Anjali Inviato: jeudi 30 mai 2013 15:37 A: 'Friedman, Richard'; Benedetta Rossi; bc-gnso@icann.org<mailto:bc-gnso@icann.org> Oggetto: RE: [bc-gnso] Durban Meeting BC Attendees & Extra information Bene, I plan on attending the Durban meetings and I am a French speaker.

We are currently preparing for the Cross Constituency Breakfast with the GAC, and expect several French only speakers within the GAC and from Africa, so it would be great to know who within the BC is a French speaker to coordinate this meeting as efficiently as possible.
