PLEASE RSVP Monthly GNSO WG Newcomer Open House Session
by Nathalie Peregrine July 29, 2014

July 29, 2014

Reminder: Monthly GNSO WG Newcomer Open House Session These ongoing monthly sessions are for new GNSO WG participants to come together and discuss any questions they may have about GNSO Working Groups, procedures and/or processes. We know there is a lot of information to digest when you join a GNSO Working Group and these monthly meetings are an opportunity for newcomers and more experienced participants to meet in an informal setting without the pressure of "real work" that needs be done. The agenda is flexible. The presenters will be ready with a standard set of materials if people would like to discuss them. Feel free to submit questions, either in advance or at the beginning of the meeting, if there is a topic that you would like to explore in more depth . Providing useful answers to a wide range of questions is part of the reason why these meetings are Thursday 7 August at 12.00 UTC Thursday 4 September at 20.00 UTC Thursday 2 October at 12.00 UTC Thursday 6 November at 20.00 UTC Thursday 4 December at 12.00 UTC To convert to your local time zone, please see http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html If you are interested to join the next meeting on 7 August or any of the future meetings, please let the GNSO Secretariat know ( <mailto:gnso-secs@icann.org> gnso-secs(a)icann.org) and we will send you the call details. If there are any specific questions you already have, or any overviews or introductions you think would be helpful (e.g. GNSO Policy Development Process or GNSO Working Group guidelines), please let us know in advance and we will prepare materials accordingly. Feel free to share this invitation with others that you think may be interested. We look forward to welcoming you at the next meeting! Nathalie Peregrine GNSO Secretariat

We apologize in advance if you are not able to make it for this call, although we very much hope you will be available - do note that all future meetings of the WG (including their regularity) will be scheduled after the WG has had a chance to discuss the optimal time, day of the week and regularity of each WG call. As some of you know, the first meeting of a GNSO WG is of an introductory nature. At the moment, our tentative agenda is: 1. Roll Call / Statements of Interest 2. Introductions - members of the WG to share information regarding backgrounds, skills, experience (especially as related to any requirements in the WG Charter) 3. Applicability of ICANN principles of transparency and openness 4. Election of WG Leaders - a Chair is normally selected by WG members at the first meeting of the WG. A WG may elect to have co-chairs or vice-chairs. Once selected, the WG Chair will need to be confirmed by the GNSO Council. 5. Items for initial review - WG Background Materials, WG Charter, GNSO Working Group Guidelines, GNSO Policy Development Process 6. Development of Work Plan: GNSO rules require that WGs develop a work plan that outlines the necessary steps and expected timing in order to achieve the milestones set out in the WG Charter 7. Confirmation of next meeting The GNSO Secretariat will send out a calendar invitation/notice in a separate email with call-in details, including details for logging into the Adobe Connect virtual meeting room that we will be using for WG meetings.

Welcome and roll call for PDP on IGO/INGO Access to Curative RPMs
by George Kirikos July 22, 2014

July 22, 2014

It has been nearly a week since this mailing list for the PDP on IGO/INGO Access to Curative RPMs has been created, and no one has posted. So, I thought I'd get the ball rolling with a "roll call." If you're a member of this mailing list, you'd have received instructions regarding creating a Statement of Interest (SOI) page. Once you've done that, feel free to reply to this email thread, with a link to your SOI, and that can serve as a "roll call" and introduction to everyone else that's participating. My own SOI is at: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/George+Kirikos+SOI Sincerely, George Kirikos 416-588-0269 http://www.leap.com/
