Hello All,
* Form a group to work on the GNSO Council interaction with the Board
Volunteers: Terry Davis, David Taylor, Jaime Wagner, Zahid Jamil, Stéphane van Gelder
Are there other volunteers? Please let either Terry Davis as leader of the group or myself if you would like to join.
I am happy to be a Board liaison for this group. One area to think about could be the difference between the GNSO Council/Board interaction that might cover issues of current and future policy development, and the GNSO supporting organisation/Board interaction - which might cover a broader set of issues - e.g compliance, ICANN budget and support for stakeholder groups, ICANN strategic plan, etc. The latter topics might engage some of the leaders of the relevant stakeholder groups - in addition to the Council. This may be relevant for structuring information sessions etc. Getting some input on topics such as the budget would be much better if received earlier in the week - rather than at the Thursday public forums. This allows some time for staff follow up of issues raised early in the week. Regards, Bruce Tonkin
