Dear all,

I had some reports that the survey on future ICANN meetings (see below) is not working correctly. I have alerted the responsible people about this and hope it will be fixed soon. I will let you know once it’s working properly again.

Sorry about the inconvenience caused!

Gabi

Dear all,

*Meetings for the Next Decade*

ICANN's meetings, their structure, content, and everything else about
them have always been very important - and everything about them has
been a subject of debate since the very first one was convened. In fact,
there are as many opinions about aspects of the meetings as there are
members of the community - but everyone agrees on one thing: they're an
essential part of the ICANN process.

Over the course of time, various consultations have been held about how
meetings should evolve and change with the times. Most of these have
started with a proposal, with the community asked to comment on that
proposal. This time around we're reversing the process, starting with
collecting the community's views and then building proposals based on
those views - we think this truly bottom-up-based process is the right
way to proceed.

The Board's Public Participation Committee, in concert with the ICANN
staff, has designed a three-stage consultation process to run from May
21st through approximately October 2010. Each of the three stages of the
consultation will be available in the six UN languages: Arabic, Chinese,
English, French, Spanish and Russian.

As ICANN enters its second decade, the time is right to look at the
meetings ICANN holds each year from a holistic and truly bottom-up
perspective, to ensure that our meetings optimally serve you, the
community, in the most cost-effective and stakeholder-focussed ways
possible.

*Interested in Learning More?*

ICANN is establishing a special microsite on www.icann.org
<http://www.icann.org> for this consultation. You can find it at
www.icann.org/meetings2010 <http://www.icann.org/meetings2010>. This URL
will begin working later today, 21st May.

A solicitation for participating in the survey will go out to community
email lists too, as well as individuals who registered for the last
several ICANN meetings, to ensure we get as many responses from the
community as we possibly can.
