Dear Chris, cc: Denise, Bart, Gabi
As you are aware, ICANN operates on an annual planning cycle; the strategic plan is developed in the second half of the calendar year and the operating plan is developed in the first half of the calendar year. Consistent with this timetable, we are posting a first draft of the strategic priorities that form the basis of the July 2009 June 2012 Strategic Plan for consultation with the ICANN community.
Given the enormous volume of work that is happening in the community at the moment, we have decided to use an incremental approach to developing the Strategic Plan this year. When you read the plan, you will see that it is very much based on the current Strategic Plan. This is not surprising given that the Strategic Plan covers a three year timeframe. Although we have achieved much in the past year, there have been few major changes in ICANN¹s environment and primary objectives. The draft plan that is attached to this email is based on input from the Board and maintains the direction that was set in the current plan. In terms of top priorities, there are two additions from the plan developed last year: Strengthen processes for developing policy (which highlights the importance of policy development in ICANN) and Globalize ICANN¹s Operations (which addresses the challenges of dealing effectively with ICANN¹s global community).
Could you please forward the attached plan to your Council or Committee for their review? I and other staff would be happy to meet with you during the Cairo meeting to get your feedback on these priorities. Additionally, at your request, there is opportunity for feedback in a telephonic meeting (post-Cairo), and, as always, written feedback is welcome. Please let me know if you would like to set up an in-person meeting in Cairo, and I will schedule it.
The draft priorities will also be posted on the ICANN website and a public comment forum will be opened so that all members of the community can contribute.
In parallel to seeking community input on these priorities, we are also developing the activities that sit below each of the priorities outlined in the document that you have in front of you now. We hope to be able to share these with you during the Cairo meeting and then to post them for public comment. As in past years, our objective is to have the Strategic Plan approved by the Board at its December meeting.
Thank you for your support of this important element of the ICANN planning process.

Chris, Council Members, I'd like to share my comments on this Stategic Plan process (rather than content). Unlike traditional organizations, ICANN strategic plan input shouldn't came mainly from staff and board, since issues and requirements to implement policies came from "lower levels" of the organization: The SO's, AC's, and committees. That doesn't mean that the current exercise is useless, no, but if we just review what has come up, it won't be a full exercise and we will be reactive instead of propositive, we have to question what do we envisage for the next 3 years, what are our expectations in the ccTLDs arena, we have to create our OWN agenda, not following what the staff feels is better for us. Unfortunately I'm not attending Cairo, and it's a shame that we receive such a short notice in such an important issue. Nevertheless, I think that we should try to at least provide with brainstorming ideas to Doug as additional input to their process, if not before Cairo, maybe after.

Dear Chris and Oscar Chris, Oscar, If I understand Oscar correctly, he wants the ccNSO to undertake a strategic planning process themselves, and based on this process, for instance, provide input into ICANNs strategic planning process. The Processes Working Group has been asked to propose a process on interfacing with ICANNs strategic and Operational planning cycle. This process has been designed on the basic assumption that ccTLD managers will provide input to ICANNs strategic and operational planning cycle and the role of the ccNSO ( Council) is to facilitate this. The proposed procedure will be presented at the ccNSO meeting in Cairo by the processes WG. In my view what Oscar is proposing is something different than the WG is suggesting, but we ( the processes WG) can incorporate Oscar's proposal of course. Looking at the agenda for the upcoming meeting in Cairo, we will have two sessions on strategic planning: 1 Possible scenario's (wanted and unwanted) as result of the introduction of new TLD's, and ways to act, as suggested by Roelof Meijer. ( Tuesday 9.15-10 am) 2. Update and input to ICANNs strategic plan. ( Tuesday 11.50 am- 12.15 am) In my view the first session is in line with Oscar's suggestion. The second session is in line with the procedure as suggested by the processes WG. Kind regards, Bart On 10/24/08 1:33 AM, "Chris Disspain" <ceo@auda.org.au> wrote: Oscar, Thanks.
