great concept if scheduling can work, and we should have a specific agenda
rather than a broad amorphous topic like “PSC Consultation.” I do not
see the benefit of discussing that in this broad group, and would greatly
prefer to focus on policy matters – such as updates from the various SOs/ACs
about their policy initiatives, and cross discussion about each other’s
initiatives. Ideally these bodies can someday coordinate their policy
development efforts, or at least routinely keep each other informed and with
the ability to comment, because many policy efforts really ought to cut across
multiple of these organizations but this silo’d ICANN system doesn’t easily
allow for cross-efforts.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

if it can be scheduled to avoid conflicts. I do have two comments
though regarding the proposed agenda items for Cairo: 1) if there is
going to be a workshop on new gTLDs, it would be very helpful if that workshop
preceded the Trans-SO/AC session on Monday; 2) if there is going to be a
general workshop during the week on the topic of '</SPAN></FONT><FONT

making them shorter, more focused and less

the President’s Strategy Committee consultations on improving institutional
confidence. It is also suggested that a further session on the Thursday
