As a prelude to the meeting, let me try to create a list of what we need to do, and some of the constraints. Constraints, working backwards: - we are planning to start drafting on Sat Aug 24, with the previous week taken up with travel to Australia and our 3-day meeting. - July 12-18 is the Durban meeting, preceded and followed by a few days travel and recovery. This is the meeting where we plan to solicit input from AC/SO, Board etc. and general attendees - that leaves less than 4 weeks to make some sense of what we heard and get follow-on answers if needed. - we have about 5 weeks before I leave for Durban, and assume your schedules are not too different. For some of us, there are summer vacations/holidays which might take some time from this schedule. T o the extent that we know those now, it would be good that we all understand if/when individuals have blackout periods. Work to do: - Carefully (re-)read RT report - Review Excel spreadsheet on Whois-RT implementation Develop any follow-on questions - Make some sense of the discrepancy between how the RT says their Recs were received and the position of ICANN staff and Board. - I think we need some contact with the Expert Panel. Their target as announced before they started was to wrap up already. The messages I am getting now say it will take a LOT longer. Unclear exactly what that means. First step perhaps to ask staff for the current time line. - schedule a follow-up meeting with RT, not just to talk about process, but substance. In the last LA meeting, we generally came to the belief that a few of the Recs were essentially un-implementable as worded. If nothing else, we need to get to the bottom of this. Overall, I don't think our task is is all that difficult, compared to some of our other ATRT responsibilities, so I would like to get as much of it underway and completed as soon as possible, to allow us to also focus on the other aspects of the RT targets.

Alan, thank you very much! I think that the agenda of the call today should be fairly simple. 1) Brief (self-)introduction (MichaelY). 2) Alan's proposals (AlanG). 3) Action items // next steps (general discussion). Moreover, if today we agree on Alan's proposals, I think it will be possible for us to minimize the necessity of frequent conf calls, and to do most of our work on-line. See you soon, Michael 2013/6/3 Alan Greenberg <alan.greenberg@mcgill.ca>
