Current status The Preliminary Issue Report is based on the input collected via a survey that was recently shared with the broader ccTLD community. Consult the survey results here[surveymonkey.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.surveymonkey.com_re...>. Based on the input collected via the online survey, the ccNSO Meeting Strategy Review Team makes the following initial recommendations: 1. Organise a ccNSO Members Meeting at every ICANN meeting 2. Ask the meeting programme WG to explore the possibility to organise a 1-day ccNSO Members Meeting during the Policy Forum (i.e. the second ICANN meeting of the year) 3. Keep the ccNSO Members Meeting as a single stream, and do not organise parallel sessions. 4. Invite the meeting programme WG to keep in mind those priorities highlighted via the survey, when putting together the agenda for the ccNSO Members meeting, being: * Developing relations between ccTLDs * Providing updates by and to the ccTLD community In addition to the 4 aforementioned initial recommendations, 1. the ccNSO Meeting Strategy Review Team asks the ccNSO Meeting Programme Working Group to attempt avoiding overlap or duplications with regional organisations' meetings 2. Moreover, the ccNSO Meeting Strategy Review Team invites the ccNSO council to ensure that the joint sessions with other supporting organisations and advisory committees at public ICANN meetings are a valuable experience for all parties, in terms of their objectives and timing Submit your comments Kindly submit your comments to Joke Braeken (joke.braeken@icann.org<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org>).
