Good letter, Brian. It makes clear we expect some verbal responses from<br>
staff at the meeting and I suggest we send it as soon as possible.<br>

to our first face-to-face meeting on May 5, 2010 in Marina del Rey. The<br>
RT carefully considered the importance of holding its first meeting in<br>
Marina del Rey at ICANN headquarters and is quite disappointed to hear<br>
that you will not be joining us in person at the meeting. We request<br>
confirmation that other arrangements for your participation, in some<br>
form, will be made. At this meeting, the RT expects to receive verbal<br>
responses from key ICANN staff to the list of questions approved by the<br>
RT.<br>

<div class="im">and Accountability and other ICANN staff you may designate. This<br>
face-to-face meeting will allow the RT to hear directly from ICANN staff<br>
regarding the accountability and transparency mechanisms that are<br>
already in place and to begin the work process that will lead to RT<br>
recommendations under the Affirmation of Commitments. The RT notes that<br>
the December 2010 deadline for recommendations to the Board imposes time<br>
constraints that both the RT and ICANN staff share. Therefore, it is<br>
critical that the initial data collection aspect of the RT work commence<br>
so that the RT’s other work streams can begin without delay.<br>
