[council] GNSO Meeting with the Board : Topics

Thu Oct 27 12:01:13 UTC 2016

+1 on the trilateral idea Donna. Particularly if a short and poignant 
(1-2 slide) introduction to those issues can be made to the meeting. GAC 
meetings take longest to warm up, using up to 20% of the time available.

The drawback may be of course is again logistics: (a) the adequate size 
of the room and (b) adequate schedule, as the other bilateral meetings 
would have to be back to back (or front to front) to the joint one (1. 
GAC-Board, 2. GAC-Board-GNSO, 3. GAC -GNSO or something like that.
