John, Certainly no more than 2 hours and, if necessary, we can pin it down to less.

Berard --------- Original Message --------- Subject: [council] Additional Council Meeting on April 10th 2014 From: "Jonathan Robinson" <jrobinson@afilias.info> Date: 4/1/14 3:15 am To: council@gnso.icann.org All, It seems that we could usefully meet in order to progress a number of open items ahead of our next scheduled meeting on May 8th 2014. We currently have a meeting scheduled for April 10th at 14h00 UTC. This meeting was scheduled to deal only with Board Seat 14. Whilst it is the case that the operating procedures make reference to “confirmation of election” we will interpret this as essentially an administrative point and not something requiring a motion. Therefore, I have asked the NCPH to advise the Council of their (Board Seat 14) selection as soon as practical and I will then take it upon myself (in my capacity as Council Chair) to notify ICANN. The GNSO Council will then take advantage of the next available Council meeting to confirm this for the record i.e. “confirmation of election” by simply noting and recording the selection of the NCPH i.e. a special meeting is NOT required for this point alone. Notwithstanding the above, the Council could usefully hold an additional meeting between now and the next scheduled meeting on May 8th and so I propose to continue with the currently scheduled meeting on April 10th at 14h00 UTC. Please make note of this time and also that an agenda will be published within 48 hours. Thanks, Jonathan
