Thanks Greg - I only mentioned the Grant Program because Shayna is in D.C.  I'm okay with moving that to a later meeting where she presents remotely.  I had mentioned our SPS in D.C. to her and she and Giovanni liked that idea, but if it's not convenient, it can wait.

Hi All,

 

Thanks for the feedback. The SPS is for strategic planning (as opposed to normal business).  A briefing on the ICANN Grant Program seems like normal business and therefore I think it is more appropriate as an agenda item at a regular meeting.  If there are no objections we can try to add this to an upcoming meeting instead of the SPS.

 

On a related note, I think the conversation around WSIS +20 may impact our overall strategy as a council so I’m inclined to include it.  However, I’d like to focus on specific and (hopefully) actionable questions such as:

 

1. What are the specific threats to ICANN's MSM (e.g., what is the process by which ICANN could lose control of the IANA function)?

2. Do these considerations around WSIS +20 impact or change Council’s strategy for this year?

 

Bruna and Desiree, I think you two volunteered to present on this topic.  Do these questions make sense?

 

We will be sending out the SPS agenda shortly.

 

Thanks,

Greg

I agree with Anne—a discussion on the Grant Program would be helpful—especially in light of the bylaws issue that we are dealing with.

Thanks Greg.  I would also suggest the Council have a session at SPS where the new Director of the ICANN Grant Program would present a summary to the Council.  Her name is Shayna (forget last name) and she is based in D.C.  I think Giovanni may also be in D.C. at that time.  It's probably a 30 minute slot based on the slide presentation done in Hamburg which conflicted with the GNSO Council wrap-up session.

Hi Desiree and all,

 

It'd be indeed helpful to have a session during the SPS meeting. I think this topic would benefit from a F2F setting.

Thanks!

 

Best,

Manju

Dear all

 

As a follow up to the ccNSO and GNSO Council joint session at the ICANN78 and the topic on ICANN, the Global Digital Compact and WSIS +20 Review, which is now a goal for the ICANN CEO, and further to the request expressed by Paul at the Council meeting to organise an informational session for the Council only, may I suggest that we look at the opportunity to organise this session during the Council's SPS meeting end of this month, or soon afterwards?

 

I would be happy to help with any aspects of organising this follow-up discussion and also together with other Councillors who volunteered. 

 

Best

Desiree
