Here are some of the points that I picked up from today's excellent discussions.

Once again, thanks to you all for your hard work this week. Safe travels home and see you all next time.

Special mention to Kristina, Adrian, Tim and Zahid. We will miss your wisdom, enthusiasm, hard work and... ice cream. Or to put it more succinctly, we will miss you!!!

GNSO review, the timeframe has been pushed back from 3 to 5 years.

This currently has the next review starting in July 2013.

 

Previous recommendations were approved by the Board at the July 2008 Paris meeting. The SIC will talk about this in the months to come.

 

Start open Council meetings with the open mic.

 

Do not fill the Open meetings with non-essential agenda items. If there aren't enough items to cover the time, make the meetings shorter.

 

Informal working group on helping "juice up" the GNSO Council Open meetings: Adrian, Jeff, John, Stéphane.

 

These are the dates we've worked out for the JAS: For the Board to approve the JAS implementation plan in Dakar on October 28, the Staff must publish all documents for the Dakar meeting 15 business days before Dakar, so October 7. So that means the Council must approve the JAS Final Report at its September 8 meeting.
