Note that the Board approved a resolution in their meeting today that asks staff to work with the GNSO to begin work on the noncontroversial recommendations for GNSO improvement, so our discussions yesterday about forming groups to work on the PDP and Working Group model fit nicely with this.

Hi, After some more discussion on meetings, and partially due to the schedule we set collided with May 1, which for many is a holiday, the schedule of meetings is suggested as follows: 28 Feb - Informal meeting with Rita prior to voting which begins on 29 Feb. 6 March - regular council meeting 27 March- regular council meeting 17 April- regular council meeting 8 May- regular council meeting 29 May- regular council meeting I also believe we will need to schedule a fair number of other meetings for Drafting Teams, Improvement implementation teams, new gTLD clarification efforts, WGs, etc - but that will be done later. a.
