I would support a meeting during the ICANN59 week if we can carve out a few hours, but definitely not on the weekend. A number of us have commitments that were firmed up well before this meeting was discussed. If a time cannot be found during the week, it should be cancelled. Moreover, I strongly believe that staff should prepare a review of the WHOIS1-RT recommendations, what staff has done with them and the current status and this should be presented to the RT in sufficient time prior to a formal first meeting to allow all RT members to fully get up to speed and understand where we stand. The need for such a document was identified MANY months ago. I will check on my commitments for dinner and get back regarding the doodle. Alan At 15/06/2017 04:40 PM, Karen Mulberry wrote:
Dear RDS/WHOIS2-RT Member,
During discussion on todayâs 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: <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__beta.doodle.com_poll_wsb2cmnpk65esa6g-23table&d=DwMGaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=gGsdOe7MBOionpebtrt_25UdWjB08ei62MZBx1B_50s&m=4EPSD1jvTnTk608pdOY7sywduwzXAjRcj7IIeoPTjUg&s=45YESPOVHD-STOQLY_rx0FGkMxjtS_o1jxJLwgfRSJQ&e=>https://beta.doodle.com/poll/wsb2cmnpk65esa6g#table[beta.doodle.com]
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,
Karen Mulberry Director, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives (MSSI) ICANN 12025 Waterfront Dr., Suite 300 Los Angeles, CA 90094 Phone: +1 424 353 9745
