WSIS Workshop
by gnso.icann July 13, 2004

July 13, 2004

[To: council[at]gnso.icann.org] [To: liaison6c[at]gnso.icann.org] [To: announce[at]gnso.icann.org] [To: ga[at]gnso.icann.org] WSIS Workshop Your constituency members are invited to participate in the "Workshop on the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS): Issues of Relevance to ICANN and Next Steps" scheduled for Tuesday, 20 July 2004 from 08:30 - 10:00 in the Shangri-La Hotel's Grand Ballroom, Kuala Lumpur. All individuals interested in the Internet and management and coordination of the domain name system (DNS) are encouraged to attend the Workshop, which will provide information on the United Nation's WSIS process and issues of direct impact to ICANN. Proposed output and next steps for ICANN constituencies/stakeholders regarding WSIS and technical coordination and management of the DNS also will be discussed. "WSIS" is a process in which governments are attempting to address a broad range of international legal, regulatory, economic, and policy issues related to the Internet. During this process, some governments proposed that an intergovernmental organization be responsible for "Internet governance," a phrase that remains undefined and some consider to include and/or mean the administration and coordination of the DNS. The objectives of the Workshop are to: 1. Inform ICANN stakeholders and the broader community about activities, initial outcomes, and upcoming events related to WSIS and ICANN; 2. Foster a dialogue and mutual understanding of positions of different stakeholders on WSIS as it relates to ICANN and other issues of interest; and 3. Enhance stakeholder participation in WSIS as it relates to ICANN's activities. Included below is the Workshop agenda. Additional meeting information is posted at <http://www.icann.org/meetings/kualalumpur/> http://www.icann.org/meetings/kualalumpur/. We would appreciate it if you would post and distribute this invitation to your constituency members. Thank you for your assistance.

Bruce, I know we are all reading the SSAC report with interest but given it's late arrival, it is possible that not all Councilors will have fully digested it by our 8:00 am. EST call Monday. Myself, for instance. Depends on how beckoning the garden is. :-) Therefore, I suggest it would be helpful to invite the Chair of the SSAC to Council in K.L. if he is in attendance, to allow Councilors to ask any relevant questions of clarification. I realize that you are also on the SSAC, but believe it more appropriate to direct questions to the Chair, as you are in the "chair" of Council. Of course, the GC should be invited as well.
