Doodle Poll - 1st DMPM WG Meeting
by Berry Cobb Feb. 20, 2014

Feb. 20, 2014

WG Members, We've conducted the call for volunteers for a few weeks now with only one additional community member being added. I will deploy one more announcement through our regular channels, as well as, having it posted on icann.org. Hopefully, we will be able to attract a few more volunteers. In the meantime, please complete the Doodle poll listed below. I am targeting the week of 3 March to have our first meeting. You will find that the times listed in the poll vary from day to day. I tried to list times that did not conflict with other WG meeting schedules as many of our members participate on other efforts. Also, we have a regionally diverse group and similar to our DT last year, I suspect we will have to schedule alternating meeting times to share the impact across time zones. Once we get started, we will conduct another poll to determine our regular schedule. Please complete the poll by 23:59 UTC on 26 Feb 2014. http://www.doodle.com/cxrxst7m4nbbngfx Our first meeting will mostly follow the standard protocol of member introductions and a quick review of Working Group Guidelines. Additionally, we need to elect a Chair for the WG. If WG members wish to announce their desire to fill this role, we can begin the process via the mailing list. It is desirable we have a meeting the week of 10 March, which is a week prior to the community travelling to Singapore. I have scheduled a face to face session for us in Singapore. It is tentatively scheduled for Thursday the 27th of March and we will have remote participation enabled as well. Therefore, in both of WG meetings leading up to Singapore, we will devote time to discuss the format of the session and what we would like to accomplish. Most of us had the chance to meet face to face in Buenos Aires and meeting in Singapore should allow us to advance our work further. The link below is to our WG web page. You will find links to the Final Issue Report, as well as, our approved Charter. Please review those two documents prior to our first meeting. http://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/active/dmpm I look forward to working with you all on this data and metrics effort and we (ICANN staff) appreciate you devoting your time to help accomplish the chartered effort. Thank you. B Berry A. Cobb Internet Corporation for Assigned Names & Numbers 720.839.5735 mail(a)berrycobb.com @berrycobb

DMPM Call for Volunteers & First WG Meeting
by Berry Cobb Feb. 7, 2014

Feb. 7, 2014

Hi All, I wanted to drop you a quick note that with our current call for volunteers, we only received one new member thus far. Next week, the announcement will also be promoted in the monthly Policy Update. If we do not get more participants, I will also plan to have an additional announcement made at the next GNSO Council meeting. Next week, I will send out a Doodle poll so that we can start to determine an optimal meeting time. Lastly, once the WG is formed, one of our first tasks will be to elect a Chair. Mikey will be acting as our liaison to the Council. This does not preclude him from being Chair if the WG wished to nominate him, but regardless, please start thinking about viable candidates. This is a link to our current set of WG members: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=41888787. Lars and I will continue to the staff contacts for this effort. In the meantime, if you should have any questions, please reach out to us. B Berry A. Cobb Internet Corporation for Assigned Names & Numbers 720.839.5735 mail(a)berrycobb.com @berrycobb
