There will be a Steel Cage Death Match among the chairs of all active Working Groups at the beginning of Day 1. Winner gets to have an F2F for the rest of the day. On Wednesday, July 13, 2016, Steve Chan <steve.chan@icann.org> wrote:
Dear Phil,
Thank you for the additional information – I was not aware. If there are major conflicts, we would obviously seek to avoid creating scheduling clashes. While day 1 might prove problematic, the intention is to hopefully schedule the F2F during the official days of the meeting rather than adding an additional day to the beginning or end of an already long meeting. Hopefully this less specific guidance is still enough to allow you and others to make an informed choice in the Doodle poll.
Best,
Steve

Hi Steve,
FYI
A number of us are also on the CCWG.
On last night’s CCWG call, there was a discussion of an all day F2F. I think Thursday 3 November was the suggested date.
Regards,
Phil

Dear WG Members,
This email is to inform you the GNSO Council is currently considering if and when PDP Face-to-Face (F2F) Working Group meetings can take place during ICANN57. The current thinking is that such a F2F meeting could take place on day 1 of ICANN57 (Thursday 3 November) in the form of a full day or half-day session. In order to assess the availability of WG members to participate in such a meeting either in person or remotely, please complete the following poll: http://doodle.com/poll/cdr7uwun3byfu288. This information will be used by the GNSO Council to make a determination if such a meeting will be scheduled and for which PDP WG(s). Of course, we know that at this stage it may be difficult for you to confirm your attendance, but hopefully by capturing the intent we’ll get a rough idea of the availability of WG members to potentially participate in such a meeting.
Best,
Steve
