Given the short notice and unusual nature of such a travel request, I would like to suggest this timeline: 1. Have a "kickoff" in Hamburg, with me participating virtually. I would prepare for and introduce the topic during the anniversary meeting Jonathan mentioned and we would then start to assemble a working group. My preference would be for a small team, preferably of people with strong written English communications skills who have not participated in other ICANN constituencies 2. The group would communicate by email list and ad-hoc virtual meetings, reporting progress back to ALAC meetings. If human resources allow, it would be optimal for a group representative to present and take feedback at every RALO at least once. 3. The working group -- hopefully with me there in person -- would present its work early in the week of ICANN79 meeting, conducting a public workshop for last-minute fine-tuning, with the intention of ALAC endorsement at its closing meeting. 4. The working group disbands, and proposes that ALAC revisit the issue every five years. - Evan
