Dear RDS/WHOIS2-RT Member,
During discussion on today’s
RDS/WHOIS2-RT call there was an exchange on the need and
value of holding the first review team face-to-face meeting
on June 24th and 25th prior to ICANN59
in Johannesburg as many of the Review Team members in
attendance had conflicts and would not be able to
participate.
As a result of this
discussion and due to the absence of several Review Team
members, the group decided to ask each RDS/WHOIS2-RT member
to indicate their preference for holding the first review
team face-to-face meeting in Johannesburg. Once preferences
have been submitted, the results will be circulated to the
review team so their plans can be finalized for ICANN59
participation.
Please respond to this
message with your preference to holding the Johannesburg
face-to-face meeting:
Yes, the face-to-face meeting
should be held, or
No, the face-to-face meeting
should be canceled
Please provide your
preference to holding a RT meeting
no
later than 2200 UTC, 16 June 2016
In addition, there was a
suggestion that the review team members in Johannesburg meet
for an informal team dinner.
Here is a Doodle Poll to
determine a date for the informal get together:

We will use the responses
submitted to confirm the date and details will then be
shared as to the location and time for this dinner.
Sincerely,
