Dear colleagues, We have been working towards the ICANN Marrakech meeting as a deadline for the creation of the panel formation proposal. ICANN asked me yesterday if it would be possible to move more quickly. I do have some time to do the heavy lifting required during the next few weeks and so I am hoping to create a draft by Dec. 23 and a complete proposal by Jan. 15. We may also discover that there is a show-stopper, most likely lack of expertise in some area. At least we will find out if we have a problem. Please send me as soon as possible the following information: * A CV that you would be happy to have attached to the proposal. * Your name, position, organization, country and language expertise as you would like it to appear in the report. p.7 * Your role and relevant expertise. p.9 I have attached the Arabic LGR proposal, as it is a useful template. The page numbers above are the corresponding pages in the Arabic proposal. If you have time to do work on answering any of the questions in https://community.icann.org/display/croscomlgrprocedure/Draft+Panel+Formatio... I would be very grateful. I shall be in touch in the near future to ask you critically to read the draft.
