Dear Phil, all Please forgive the directness of my response to Phil's request, but it's the start of a new year (indeed, a new decade!), and as we continue to internationalise our work at ICANN in these new times, we should not lose sight of the fact that one time zone's request for another "more convenient" meeting time inherently suggests prioritising certain time zones over others. Sadly, the balance of participation in PDPs currently means that the "more convenient" time referred to is the *least convenient *time for Asia Pacific. How we fix that problem is another question, and I do appreciate that there's a chicken and egg problem here, but I think we ought to be careful with wording that does not inherently prioritise in choice of language one global region over another.

Happy New Year everyone Hi Jeff , Cheryl , Hi Jim I am really sorry but I won’t be able to make the call later, being 04 00 in the morning . I suspect a number of other Europeans won’t be on the call too .
I was going to suggest that we convene another more convenient and an extra meeting ( via a poll) and make it a “three line whip call “ . all participants MUST attend to discuss the impact/ implications of/ on the Sub Pro ‘s work 1 . The new .com contract 2. The potential acquisition of PIR /.org by private equity 3 The draft FY 21 Operating Plan and Budget released just before Christmas , which is now open for public comment. Clearly ICANN org is looking for further input from the Sub Pro . See 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 . I would be prepared to help put some costings, resource planning and funding requirements together with ICANN . Thanks Phil

Cheryl and Jeff – I understand that prior the holiday break, you met with some members of the ICANN Board and ICANN Senior management to discuss the work of the SubPro PDP. Could I ask for an additional agenda item (either stand alone or in AOB) or maybe a response on list as to how that meeting went? Things like topics covered and any feedback from any of the parties on the call that may be useful to the PDP as we continue our work.
If there was an update already provided, apologies for the duplication. Just point me to it. May have missed it over the break.
Thanks
