these are all very good suggestions. I want to note that there is always a meeting summary provided after the meeting, but perhaps what Jean-Michel is suggesting is paying someone to take a transcript? -----Original Message----- From: owner-registrars@gnso.icann.org on behalf of Steinar Grøtterød Sent: Thu 7/22/2004 12:09 PM To: Jean-Michel Becar; registrars@dnso.org Cc: Subject: RE: [registrars] ICANN Meeting I support Tom and Jean-Michel on this. Some might argument that it will cost extra for tel.conf but the tel.conf. seldom works properly during the RC meeting at ICANN. An updated RC web with notes from the meetings in ICANN will be an excellent substitute for the "second day meeting". If the present web is not working OK, Active ISP will happily support RC with a free web-portal. Re the notes - we do have a secretary.

I would also like to add that we diefinitly need 2 things: - Our web site updated. - For our meetings we should select or ask for a volunteer to take notes and to post them of the list in order to give the people who didn't travel with us to be aware of what we talked about. For the web site, I remember somebody replied to my previous request for it but I cannot find the email so I don't remember who he was. I 'm willing to help for the web site and to take notes the next conf call or/and meeting.
