Maybe we can have the 5th item - coordination/cooperation at regional and local levels - work with the ccNSO participation WG items - what would you think we should narrow it down to? What are the issues that have come up to date in the participation WG? So far on the ALAC side we have seen problems with langage and understanding of the ICANN policy issues and are working on a project to develop mulitlanguage briefing documents for each policy issue both before and during any comment period.

Perhaps you could consider "participation" as an issue that is common to both ALAC and the ccNSO, and on which the ccNSO is conducting significant consultation using a working group whose charter is available online.
