<div>Hi Matthew -&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>I reached out internally and this is not an ICANN plan. &nbsp;We are not clear about where this idea of the tour of capitals arose for the inclusion in this article, nor about the canvassing opinion. &nbsp;ICANN, by NTIA’s request is the convener and facilitator
 of the transition development process. &nbsp;In that role, ICANN also performs outreach to develop awareness and understanding of the process and &nbsp;to encourage participation.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best,&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>

This caught my eye:<i><br>
</i><i><br>
ICANN officials will start touring European capitals over the next two months to canvass opinion on the latest drafts of reform proposals.</i><br>
<br>
Anyone know anything about this tour of capitals?&nbsp; <br>
