Bruce, I would expect that we could use about 15 minutes for the report on the Amsterdam Consultation. I will prepare a very few PP summarizing the meeting's outputs and send to the Councilors who helped to organize: Tony, Lucy, Ross, Ken, yourself, Marilyn, and the co-moderators, Philip and Grant, for review before the meeting. It will explain the outputs, and timelines. We should in our meeting, also thank the ICANN staff who were available, and contributed both in the presentation and throughout the meeting, and also thank Paul Twomey who made opening comments on Day one. As well as the other members of the community who participated with us. As an FYI, there will also be a meeting report that will be sent out Friday, 2/11, for review by all participants, and Glen will post to the Council list as well, for full information for the Councilors where weren't able to attend in person. Grant and I have done a good deal of drafting on a meeting report so far, and I've had contributions from the rapporteurs outputs. Thanks to everyone who helped to organize and participated, both Councilors, and ICANN staff, for all your help and wise counsel along the way. Everyone made themselves flexibly available and were very responsive as the agenda and format was developed. Of course our work isn't over on input and consultation; however, it was really a pleasure to work with other Councilors and constituency members, as well as the broader community and ICANN staff in organizing and supporting the Amsterdam meeting. -----Original Message----- From: owner-council@gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of Bruce Tonkin Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 6:44 PM To: Bruce Tonkin; council@gnso.icann.org Cc: Kurt Pritz; Paul Verhoef; Barbara Roseman; gnso.icann; Tim Cole; Tina Dam Subject: RE: [council] Draft Agenda for GNSO Council teleconference - Thursday 17 Feb 2005 Note that the ICANN staff are currently conducting a review of the transfers policy. http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-12jan05.htm We can discuss progress on this under item 6 of the Agenda.
