Phil, Thanks for the heads up on the CCWG discussions. I am sure ICANN staff will take all of this into consideration. On a personal note, I believe that we are going to need to balance priorities. CCWG has had face to face meetings at every ICANN meeting for at least the past two years and I am sure they will continue. But that said, we cannot stop all of the other work going on….otherwise we will have a super accountable organization that does nothing substantively ☺ Seriously though, we will try to balance everything, but there may be competing meetings which are unavoidable if we want to keep all of the meetings within the time allotted.

On last night’s CCWG call, there was a discussion of an all day F2F. I think Thursday 3 November was the suggested date.

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.
