Dear All,
At the GNSO Council meeting on 17 July, the Council agreed to form a drafting team in response to the ICANN Board request on ICANN Geographic Regions.
The drafting group mailing list address is: <Gnso-geo-dg@icann.org> With public archives at: http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-geo-dg/
The group is open to Councillors, constituency members and interested community participants. Chuck Gomes, Olga Cavalli and Philip Sheppard have volunteered to be on the drafting team.
Please let me know whether you would like to join this drafting team with Rob Hoggarth as staff support by Thursday 31 July so that we can identify a regular meeting schedule.
