Michele's suggestion makes sense. Unless there's a feeling the group cannot function for a month absent leadership, which I would find surprising.

Best.

Everyone should have an SOI

 

If they don't have one setting one up is not hard

 

..

 

I'd also respectfully suggest that any election / choice of DG leaders be deferred

 

I suspect that the group's make up will change between now and September as people come back from holidays etc and become aware of the group's existence

Subject: Re: [Gnso-newgtld-dg] Agenda for First Meeting of the Discussion Group for New gTLD Subsequent Rounds

 

be of an introductory nature. The proposed agenda is:

  • Roll Call / Statements of Interest

 

Suggestion: only reading SoI for people that do not have GNSO SOIs (or have updates to), to shorten up this part. 



  • Applicability of ICANN principles of transparency and openness
  • Items for initial review -  GNSO Resolution forming this group, GNSO Working Group Guidelines, GNSO Policy Development Process (to serve as a reference point for the DG)
  • Discussion of Work Plan – Review of Interim Chair's Draft Work Plan and discussion of alternatives and tools for completing work
  • Election of DG Leaders – The DG may elect to have co-chairs or vice-chairs. Once selected, the DG Chair(s) will need to be confirmed by the GNSO Council.

 

May I suggest that no attempt to see vice-chairs as representation of that constituency in the group ? It's so much simpler to have 2 (either chair/vice-chair, co-chair/co-chair, chair/alternate chair) leaders instead of a complex structure... since *-chairs only have coordination but no definition role, it's of no use to see too much into the roles.
