Thanks for your comment, Chuck. The briefing on new gTLDs for the At-large community was organized by ICANN Staff as part of our ongoing effort to bring At-Large community members up-to-date on pending issues of interest. The At-Large community asked for oral briefings on a few issues -- new gTLDs among them. This is the second "global," informational, conference call that has been organized as "a test case" to see if this briefing method proves useful. Although this basic new gTLD briefing is for the benefit of At-Large community members, anyone interested is welcome to dial-in. Slides and an MP3 recording of the new gTLD call will be posted and available to all; Glen will share the URLs with this list. If future conference call briefings are scheduled for At-Large, Staff will bring them to the immediate attention of this list. Finally, if any group has requests/suggestions for additional conference call briefings, please email them to me.

It sure would have been nice to have reasonable lead time on this. It would also have been helpful if there was some coordination with the GNSO before scheduling a time. I hope it is going to be recorded because it is scheduled at a time when I have two unavoidable conflicts and the other two RyC Councilors have a conflict as well.
