Dear Denise, Dear All Denise, I am delighted to here that you and other members of the ICANN team will be in attendance at the London meeting, and appreciate your continued support of the Team's work. All, I attach an updated draft of the London agenda for your information. It is more or less the same as that circulated before Christmas, but makes a number of changes in response to comments: - Later finish time on second day - Inclusion of "producers" under item 3 (Developing the Definitions) - Discussion with Larry Strickling is inserted as new item 4 (afternoon of first day). This item is referred to in Denise's mail, and is carried over from the Cartagena meeting. Denise, if Rod is available to join this discussion, he would be most welcome. If not, we can schedule for another occasion. Your other question, Denise, is I hope answered by the agenda on day 2 (item 6(a)). If anything is unclear, Kathy or I will be happy to give you a briefing. I look forward to receiving any final comments by the end of Friday. In the absence of any comments, we will take this agenda as agreed prior to the meeting. Kind regards Emily On 5 Jan 2011, at 17:41, Denise Michel wrote:
Dear Team Members:
1) The following ICANN staff members are looking forward to joining you in London for your first formal meeting to provide substantive information on Whois matters and relevant ICANN activities:
Denise Michel - Advisor to the President & CEO Liz Gasster - Senior Policy Counselor, ICANN Policy Support Stacy Burnette - Director, Contractual Compliance
Olof and Alice, of course, also will be there to support the Team's operational and administrative needs.
It would be helpful to receive this week input on what the Team would like staff to cover at the meeting and any specific questions the Team would like the staff to address. While staff is committed to being as responsive and helpful as possible, depending on the complexity of the requests, staff may also provide follow-up answers and information in writing after the meeting.
2) Following-up on a request by some Team members in Cartagena that Assistant Secretary Strickling and CEO Beckstrom talk to the Team about their "intent" regarding the Whois review language in the Affirmation of Commitments, I have asked their respective schedulers to try to find time for a brief conference call with the Team during your London meeting. Their staff are making every effort to re-arrange schedules to get them both on the phone with you for a brief chat. I am assuming that, if their schedules can't be synced, as a fall-back you would want to speak with them individually. Please let me know if this is not the case.
I look forward to seeing you all in London.
Regards, Denise
