[council] For your information - latest version of the GNSO Marrakech Public Schedule

[Phil Corwin]

For discussion with the new CEO, I would suggest the following question:

	What are your plans to establish an enhanced culture of accountability within ICANN staff that includes a full understanding of 	the bottom-up consensus-driven policy development process and that will seek consultation with the community before 	significant decisions are announced?

Without reciting all the demonstrative examples, I have heard many within the ICANN community express concern regarding senior staff initiatives over the past few years that they have regarded as top down, as well as about the fact that so many new staff were hired within such a short period that they had insufficient familiarity with the  unique history and design of ICANN. The question also would be useful insofar that the proposed accountability measures are all reactive, and that greater deference to community views and input prior to decision-making would reduce the need for their use.

Good addition, Julf.  Marika, can we add this?

If there are no other topics in the next hour or two, we will transmit this list to the board.

Thanks<
