Dear Alejandra, all I do not have clear preferences. I understand Stephen’s view and do not object of having an Approval Action Community Forum take place at the “next available” ICANN meeting
From the other side the agenda seems to be quite packed already.
Best, Irina BTW – I haven’t seen the announcement to ccTLD community on the Approval Action required in the list – did I miss it?

Closing date is Monday 25 September 23.59 UTC. This would allow Alejandra to consult and speak with her fellow ECA members, taking into account your views. Stephen’s view On yesterday’s call I shared with you Stephen’s views as he was traveling. I will use this opportunity to share his view again. As background, please note that Stephen is currently the approval action process manager and was the ccNSO rep on the ECA. “ As you have probably gathered, I am a big advocate of having an Approval Action Community Forum take place at the “next available” ICANN meeting should the Board take an action that requires Empowered Community approval. If for no other reason, it’s a community-wide show of respect for the Multi-stakeholder model, the Bylaws, and what we achieved as a Community in successfully executing the Transition from the USG. All need to be taken seriously and shown due respect or else erosion will begin to occurr. On behalf of the ECA, I managed the first ever Approval Action Community Forum where Chris came and led the dance with the Community on behalf of the Board. It was completely non-controversial, as I suspect these changes are as well, although I do confess, I have not studied them in depth. Although held “out of band” early in the morning, that first forum had really solid attendance, which was heartening.” Background / Timelines (see Annex D, section 1.3 c ( <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD> https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD ) Under the ICANN Bylaws, delivery of the Secretary’s Notices on 15 September: (1) requires Decisional Participants to “promptly inform their constituents” of the delivery of such notices; and (2) triggers an Approval Action Community Forum Period, to convene a Community Forum, which ends on the 30th day after the Approval Action Board Notification Date (15 October 2023) . If the community (read ECA) intends to convene virtual Forum it needs to be convened and concluded during the period beginning upon the Approval Action Board Notification Date (15 September 2023) and ending on 15 October 2023. If the ECA intends to convene an in-person session, it has to be convened during ICANN78 EIther way, if the ECA intends to convene a Community Forum, support staff reuested to be informed by Wednesday 27 September 2023.
