NOTICE: Call with ICANN Senior Management on ISPCP Input to Strategic Plan

ICANN has begun consultation for the July 2008 - June 2011 Strategic Plan, see http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-2-28jun07.htm .

At this stage ICANN is seeking the views of the community on the challenges and opportunities that ICANN is likely to face over the next three to five years.

 
This is the first part of a multi-phase consultation on the development of the strategic plan. During the next phase ICANN will be seeking comments on the issues paper that is developed from the comments received during this initial consultation. In September ICANN will be seeking comments on the draft plan. 

Consultation sessions will also be conducted at the next ICANN meeting in Los Angeles in late October.  The timeframe is fairly tight as ICANN needs to ensure that they have a plan developed for approval by the Board in December, in accordance with the ICANN planning calendar.

During this initial stage ICANN does not need a consensus view from the ISPCP (although they would welcome one if we could manage it); individual comments are welcome.

THE ISPCP HAS ARRANGED A CONFERENCE CALL TO DISCUSS THE ICANN STRATEGIC PLAN WITH ICANN SENIOR MANAGEMENT.

The call is set for Wednesday, 19 September, at 16.00 UTC (6 PM/18.00 CEST).  Dial in details and a reminder will be sent as part of a subsequent message.
