As you know, over the years, the Board has heard from many Groups on the need to make the interaction between the Board and Constituency/Stakeholder/Advisory Groups at ICANN Public Meetings more effective for both the Groups and the Board. To do this, Board Operations collects, ahead of the Meeting, the questions that each Group would like to bring to the Board. We would appreciate receiving the questions/topics that GNSO might want to discuss with the Board during the meeting currently scheduled on Monday 7 November. The deadline for submission of these topics is Wednesday 26 October. We are as well taking this opportunity to share with you the Board's questions to your Group, for discussion during this meeting. QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD : 1. What do we (Board and ICANN organization) have to do to make the transition work for you? 2. What do we (Board, ICANN organization and community) need to do to advance trust and confidence in what we do? Best, The Board Ops team
