Absorbing the full day Working Groups Pilot program into the schedule implies that they believe it is practical to ask Working Group members will take an extended period (usually a full day or nearly so for the Pilot Program so far) out from an already short and overpacked meeting. I am finding this hard to understand in terms other than Nick is either a) lacking in understanding of what the pilot program consists of and is confusing it with more routine policy work or b) has entirely unrealistic ideas about the scheduling of working group members or c) is making some kind of joke.

Hi David - We can confirm with Nick, but I don't think the implication was for the face-to-face to encompass an entire day (25%!) of Meeting B. Only that the topic itself would be included in to the schedule/agenda for the Policy Forum. Something we can discuss further on our call in a few hours. Thanks- J.

Which means option a) - Nick does not understand what the Pilot Program is, and is confusing incorporporating PDP work into meeting B with incorporating the Pilot Program into meeting B (which there are no plans to do). In short, a very disappointing answer. David

Councilor Colleagues -
Please see attached for a letter form Nick Tomasso, responding to our earlier request regarding a face-to-face PDP meeting. During our discussions in Marrakech and with smaller groups, we have tried to balance the value of having these sessions at ICANN meetings, while trying to remain faithful to the intention of the "Meeting B” policy forum concept.
As for Nick’s response, I would like to draw your attention to this statement in particular: "It is anticipated that the PDP Working Groups Pilot Program will be absorbed into the 'Meeting B' schedule rather than having an additional day specifically for that purpose."
I agree that the Policy Forum concept must recognize the importance of advancing the work of ongoing PDPs, but would emphasize incorporating these in to the 4 day schedule, rather than add an optional 5th day.
I welcome thoughts from others on this topics and Nicks’ letter, and I’m looking forward to further discussions on tomorrow’s call.
Thank you,

Hi David, all If I could make one plea on this topic it is that we go into Meeting B with an open mind and save the constructive feedback for after the meeting. Meeting B will be significantly different from Meetings A and C, in that it is intended to be about policy and will be conducted over 4 days. If it transpires that Meeting B does not live up to expectations and allow for policy work to be progressed to the extent that this would have been achieved with an additional day via the Pilot Program, then we can discuss how to move forward to best address any shortcomings. We need to be careful not to shoot the messenger. Nick is implementing recommendations that came from the Meeting Strategy Working Group (a cross community work group that had representation from across the community including the GNSO and the GAC) and was approved by the Board. As a member of the MSWG, I feel very strongly about being able to give Meeting B its best opportunity for success or failure. Thanks for your understanding. Donna Donna Austin: Neustar, Inc.

Speaking for only for myself--- After numerous conversations on this, I’m coming around to Donna’s point of view regarding Meeting B. Although maybe for different reasons. If I can be blunt, I think if Meeting B is going to fail, it should fail because we followed the MSWG recipe to the letter, and not because we were tinkering with the ingredients while the cake was already in the oven. It is therefore entirely possible that we come out of Helsinki wondering “what was that all about?” and that a few years from now, we reminisce about Meeting B over drinks and laugh. Or, the Helsinki meeting could launch a new era for ICANN, where leaner, light-weight events become more common. Where the summer event is laser-focused on policy development, rather than taking on the broader universe of Internet governance, commercial dealmaking, and organizational restructure. Where we take this smaller event on the road to more remote venues and connect with the communities already in operation there. This is the potential payoff of Meeting B. The good news w.r.t. the PDPs that would be eligible for the day-long face-to-face meeting under the Pilot Program, is that they’re just starting up, and not at a critical point in their work plan where they are dependent upon the face to face to meet any deadline. In some ways, this is fortuitous quirk of the calendar that allows us some flexility for a Meeting B “trial run.” We can move these PDPs to 1- or 2-hours sessions in Helsinki, but preserve the full-day option for Meeting A and Meeting C (btw, this exact question was part of our discussion on the FY17 Budget). Anyway, those are just my thoughts. I realize the GNSO calendar is several orders of magnitude more complex than other SO/ACs, but I think we should do our best to track the original intent of Meeting B, with no small measure of courage for trying something new. Looking forward to our discussion on this in a few hours. Thanks— J.

Although ICANN is making some exception in terms of funding for an extra night for CCWG-ACCT members who will be attending a scheduled Sunday meeting in Helsinki, they appear unwilling to budge on doing something similar for the PDP WGs. Continuing to ask is probably futile. Given the situation, I think it's best we turn our attention to reviewing the draft schedule as it now stands and suggesting ASAP any alterations we believe are necessary to facilitate our policy work at ICANN 56.

Although maybe for different reasons. If I can be blunt, I think if Meeting B is going to fail, it should fail because we followed the MSWG recipe to the letter, and not because we were tinkering with the ingredients while the cake was already in the oven. It is therefore entirely possible that we come out of Helsinki wondering "what was that all about?" and that a few years from now, we reminisce about Meeting B over drinks and laugh. Or, the Helsinki meeting could launch a new era for ICANN, where leaner, light-weight events become more common. Where the summer event is laser-focused on policy development, rather than taking on the broader universe of Internet governance, commercial dealmaking, and organizational restructure. Where we take this smaller event on the road to more remote venues and connect with the communities already in operation there. This is the potential payoff of Meeting B. The good news w.r.t. the PDPs that would be eligible for the day-long face-to-face meeting under the Pilot Program, is that they're just starting up, and not at a critical point in their work plan where they are dependent upon the face to face to meet any deadline. In some ways, this is fortuitous quirk of the calendar that allows us some flexility for a Meeting B "trial run." We can move these PDPs to 1- or 2-hours sessions in Helsinki, but preserve the full-day option for Meeting A and Meeting C (btw, this exact question was part of our discussion on the FY17 Budget). Anyway, those are just my thoughts. I realize the GNSO calendar is several orders of magnitude more complex than other SO/ACs, but I think we should do our best to track the original intent of Meeting B, with no small measure of courage for trying something new. Looking forward to our discussion on this in a few hours. Thanks- J.

Meeting B will be significantly different from Meetings A and C, in that it is intended to be about policy and will be conducted over 4 days. If it transpires that Meeting B does not live up to expectations and allow for policy work to be progressed to the extent that this would have been achieved with an additional day via the Pilot Program, then we can discuss how to move forward to best address any shortcomings.

If I can be blunt, I think if Meeting B is going to fail, it should fail because we followed the MSWG recipe to the letter, and not because we were tinkering with the ingredients while the cake was already in the oven. It is therefore entirely possible that we come out of Helsinki wondering "what was that all about?" and that a few years from now, we reminisce about Meeting B over drinks and laugh. Or, the Helsinki meeting could launch a new era for ICANN, where leaner, light-weight events become more common. Where the summer event is laser-focused on policy development, rather than taking on the broader universe of Internet governance, commercial dealmaking, and organizational restructure. Where we take this smaller event on the road to more remote venues and connect with the communities already in operation there. This is the potential payoff of Meeting B. The good news w.r.t. the PDPs that would be eligible for the day-long face-to-face meeting under the Pilot Program, is that they're just starting up, and not at a critical point in their work plan where they are dependent upon the face to face to meet any deadline. In some ways, this is fortuitous quirk of the calendar that allows us some flexility for a Meeting B "trial run." We can move these PDPs to 1- or 2-hours sessions in Helsinki, but preserve the full-day option for Meeting A and Meeting C (btw, this exact question was part of our discussion on the FY17 Budget). Anyway, those are just my thoughts. I realize the GNSO calendar is several orders of magnitude more complex than other SO/ACs, but I think we should do our best to track the original intent of Meeting B, with no small measure of courage for trying something new.
