Thanks Ayden, your comments are noted.
On the incremental recommendations, I would like to understand why there is a desire to remove the public Board meeting from the agenda of the Community Forum. I otherwise am supportive of these recommendations and thank the drafting team
for their efforts in compiling them.
In response to your question above: The Policy Forum format does not have a Board meeting so I used it as an example of something we could do without. I see value
of the public Board meeting at the AGM because of the changeover in personnel etc., but don’t believe they add value to the other ICANN meetings.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [council] Draft GNSO Council comments on Proposed Incremental Changes to ICANN Meetings Strategy
Dear Donna, Carlos, and Michele—
Thank you very much for drafting these comments. While I would welcome a more comprehensive review of the meeting strategy for ICANN Public Meetings, for the purpose of this comment I would prefer that we keep our remarks within the narrow
scope of the feedback that has been sought. Accordingly, I do not at this time support the submission of the second paragraph and accompanying bullet points of the high level comments.
On the incremental recommendations, I would like to understand why there is a desire to remove the public Board meeting from the agenda of the Community Forum. I otherwise am supportive of these recommendations and thank the drafting team
for their efforts in compiling them.
Best wishes,
Ayden Férdeline
