FYI 

Id like to call a meeting for  as many of you as possible who can come to discuss this interesting proposal.

Unfortunately given the tight timeframe we have to work within, and I'm only free on Monday 28 March @ 19.00utc. Apologies for the short notice (and the attached reading) which arrived at our first planning call on the 24th March. 

We have until...

1) 31 March for our vote for or against this new meeting format 
2)1 April for plenary topics for ICANN74

Its interesting that just when ICANN is looking at how it aims to provide a "hybrid" meeting that will make the participant experience as close as possible to actually "being there", they are throwing in this new format and giving the volunteer  section of this community only a week to understand and consider it.  

Anyway, I hope staff can organise the call for Monday and that you are able to come. It would be our first ICANN74 planning meeting so thay we can make some decisions. If you can't make it, please add your suggestions for 1 & 2 (above) and any  other comments, to this thread. This is your chance to have your say.

Many thanks in advance.

Dear community leaders and members of the Community Meetings Planning Group,

Please find attached the relevant materials from the first production call for ICANN74 that we held yesterday with the Community Meetings Planning Group. These are: (1) the preliminary overview of what to expect on-site in The Hague; (2)  the slides used on the call; and (3) the requested summary of the proposal to pilot a limited, thematic approach for ICANN74.

Please also note the following dates and additional points:
On Item (1) – We will be making additional and more detailed information available on 31 March, and updating that information regularly as the meeting dates draw nearer.
On Item (2) – While we anticipate maintaining the enclosed production schedule, please refer to the summary proposal document for an UPDATED illustrative block schedule.  
On Item (3) – As requested, we have prepared a summary of the proposal to pilot a thematic approach for ICANN74. The summary document UPDATES a number of points that were in the original slides, based on the group’s feedback and  discussion during the call. These include:
Suggesting that the pilot be limited to just one daily track rather than two or more themes across the meeting;
Updating the block schedule to reflect an additional slot (Block 5); and 
Clarifying the differences between a “plenary” session and a “thematic” work track.

We hope that the summary proposal addresses the questions that were raised during the call. We hope that, in accordance with the deadlines proposed in the paper, your community groups can provide feedback as follows:
By 31 March – on the proposed thematic pilot; and
By 1 April – on plenary sessions.

Please refer to the summary proposal for more details about these requests and deadlines. Thank you! 

Cheers

Mary (on behalf of the org team supporting ICANN Public Meeting planning)
