Hi,

It has become apparent that there is a core group meeting at ICANN face to face on this intense work meeting.  They have perhaps even had closed meetings already.

Seems a bit strange, and is a bit worrisome.

Did we discuss this approach to the meeting?  If so, I missed the even the notification of this happening.

Also, given that we have a component of folks who have traveled for a face 2 face, have they established a detailed agenda yet for the rest of us? 

For the sake for transparency are their conversations being recorded, transcribed and published?

I know when the schedule gets tight there is an urge to get a couple of 'reliable & reasonable' people together to huddle together to find a solution, but I worry that this will not help the rest of us reach consensus.

thanks
