Re: [OFB-WG] [Ext] UPDATE and Next OFB WG meeting
by Holly Raiche Sept. 1, 2023

Sept. 1, 2023

Hi Heidi and Silvia - and Ricardo I’m happy with Silvia’s agenda - but I’d also include a link to the Holistic Review on the agenda page so that attendees have access to the document in time to read/refresh their memory of the review. And Ricardo are you comfortable with your session - leading up to Hamburg? (I note neither of us will be at Hamburg) My experience is that meetings really need a chair who is actually physically present when they are being held mainly in person - which leaves both of us not really suitable for chairing. I”ll have a word with JZ about that. I’d imagine the best time for our meeting after this is after ICANN 78 - but we should have a briefing on the PTI budget before it is released for comment - which we can discuss at the coming meeting. Thanks both to Heidi and Silvia. The OFB page looks so much better - particularly with an obvious link to back meetings.
