Hi all, I wanted to let you know that I’m expecting my first baby in March. As a result, I will not be able to travel to Singapore for ICANN 52, and I will be taking some time away from work after the baby is born. Mohamed, Patrik, and I have discussed ICG chairing responsibilities in light of this and wanted to share that plan with you. For the Feb 6-7 ICG meeting and ICANN 52: * As they did for the September meeting, Patrik and Mohamed will decide amongst themselves who will run each session or portion thereof (and we can of course continue the practice of sharing that responsibility among all the ICG members). * I will participate remotely for as much of the meetings as possible and will be available by phone/Skype/IM for ad hoc discussion as necessary. Daylight hours in Singapore are early-to-late evening hours in California, so this should work ok. For parental leave time: My parental leave will likely start in early-to-mid March (although it could start earlier, it’s not entirely predictable). My rough plan for leave is outline below, but obviously it could change substantially at any time depending on how everything goes. I plan to take 4 weeks entirely off of work after the baby is born. If some ICG emergency requires my attention during that time, Patrik and Mohamed will have my contact details and will be able to reach me. During that time they will decide amongst themselves who will run teleconferences, make consensus calls (if necessary), and make administrative decisions, or they will do those things jointly. After 4 weeks I will still be at home with the baby but will plan to return to my ICG responsibilities. Patrik, Mohamed and I will coordinate if scheduling issues come up on my end but my hope is to be able to re-engage with the mailing list, phone conferences, and the rest of our work. After 12 weeks I will be back to working full-time. I plan to travel to ICANN 53. Please feel free to reach out to me on the mailing list or privately if you have questions. Alissa
Congratulations Alissa and I hope all goes smoothly.

Due to a problem on my preferred email inbox, it's likely that I missed some ICG messages between 6th and 9th of January.

Dear Alissa, Congradulation. I was in an area tjhat access to my mail box was very limited I arrived yesterday and raed more than 100 mails I hope every thing goes smoothly and additional ICG member is most welcomed.

Thank you Alissa for the information, glad to hear that you will soon have your first baby. We wish you and your family well. We will really miss your presence in Singapore but not your constructive input and leadership. Your suggestions are very good way to proceed, I am sure Patrik and Mohammed will do great job as they lead the Group.

Based on my participation in the latest names discussions, Alissa, I think you will have time to give birth to your child and return to the chairmanship, and perhaps your son or daughter will have time to inherit your chairmanship should we find that desirable.

I must unfortunately agree with Milton here. Given this process was started in 1997, supposed to be in 2000 where we are now, it seems we are running according to "an interesting time scale". That said, I am at the same time impressed with how the three operational communities have worked the last couple of months. I do not think I have since 1997 seen such energy and effort. In a positive way. Lets hope it does not backfire. Patrik
Patrik, Milton,
Based on my participation in the latest names discussions, Alissa, I think you will have time to give birth to your child and return to the chairmanship, and perhaps your son or daughter will have time to inherit your chairmanship should we find that desirable.
I must unfortunately agree with Milton here. Given this process was started in 1997, supposed to be in 2000 where we are now, it seems we are running according to "an interesting time scale".
That said, I am at the same time impressed with how the three operational communities have worked the last couple of months. I do not think I have since 1997 seen such energy and effort. In a positive way.
Jokes aside, there is a time and place for everything. The world changes. We live now in a different world than earlier. Internet has changed, and grown. And as you point out, there has been a unique effort on this topic - and I think even more unique agreement on the big picture. Are there problems? Yes. Disagreements? Yes. Are we going to be exactly on time? Probably not. But I think we are on an unprecedented trajectory to do this, and it will happen. This is not your grandmom’s IANA transition, it is the real thing :-) And it really is up to us - the coordinators, community members and leaders. Lets do it. Jari

Hi all,
I wanted to let you know that I’m expecting my first baby in March. As a result, I will not be able to travel to Singapore for ICANN 52, and I will be taking some time away from work after the baby is born. Mohamed, Patrik, and I have discussed ICG chairing responsibilities in light of this and wanted to share that plan with you.
For the Feb 6-7 ICG meeting and ICANN 52: * As they did for the September meeting, Patrik and Mohamed will decide amongst themselves who will run each session or portion thereof (and we can of course continue the practice of sharing that responsibility among all the ICG members). * I will participate remotely for as much of the meetings as possible and will be available by phone/Skype/IM for ad hoc discussion as necessary. Daylight hours in Singapore are early-to-late evening hours in California, so this should work ok.
For parental leave time: My parental leave will likely start in early-to-mid March (although it could start earlier, it’s not entirely predictable). My rough plan for leave is outline below, but obviously it could change substantially at any time depending on how everything goes.
I plan to take 4 weeks entirely off of work after the baby is born. If some ICG emergency requires my attention during that time, Patrik and Mohamed will have my contact details and will be able to reach me. During that time they will decide amongst themselves who will run teleconferences, make consensus calls (if necessary), and make administrative decisions, or they will do those things jointly.
After 4 weeks I will still be at home with the baby but will plan to return to my ICG responsibilities. Patrik, Mohamed and I will coordinate if scheduling issues come up on my end but my hope is to be able to re-engage with the mailing list, phone conferences, and the rest of our work.
After 12 weeks I will be back to working full-time. I plan to travel to ICANN 53.
Please feel free to reach out to me on the mailing list or privately if you have questions. Alissa _______________________________________________ Internal-cg mailing list Internal-cg@icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/internal-cg
Congratulations Alissa! I fully support the arrangement and I’m sure that everything will be fine and we will not need to border you too much during the precious time away enjoying the beauty of motherhood. - a. On Jan 9, 2015, at 23:44 PM, Alissa Cooper <alissa@cooperw.in> wrote:
