Dear All Next week on Tuesday 19/Oct we will have our ICANN72 ccNSO Council prep call at noon UTC. As usual, this is an informal meeting intended to prepare for all the sessions in which we are directly participating or might be relevant for our work as Councillors, therefore, I hope you will all be able to attend. Below you will find the agenda for our prep call. Please note that: - We are still missing people to lead a topic or to report back from a session during our council meeting in ICANN 72. Think about this and don't hesitate to volunteer (or you might be voluntold 😉 ) - I have not included all the ccTLD relevant sessions.
