<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=789112314-03122009><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I find this very surprising and extremely
disappointing. The RrSG has representation on the CSG WT and there was no
concern expressed from the RrSG. The CSG WT sought comments from SGs
months ago and there was no concern from the RrSG. The RrSG has
representation on the OSC and no concern was expressed from the RrSG. The
recommendations were sent to the full Council list on 5 Nov for discussion and
comment and the topic was raised for discussion on the 23 Nov Council meeting;
still no RrSG comment. Now a motion is made after many months of comment
solicitation, and you say the RrSG may not support the motion. Am I
missing something here?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>More specifically to the point of the recommendations, you
seem to be talking about ICANN funding for F2F meetings. The Toolkit of
Services recommendations say nothing about that. The recommendations simply
say that one of the services that could be made available for SGs and
constituencies is support for arranging face-to-face meetings for SGs and
constituencies. They make no reference to doing that for WTs, WGs, or
other GNSO organizations besides constituencies and SGs; in fact, a more general
approach that left it open to other organizations was rejected. All that
is being recommended here is, if a SG or constituency decides to hold a F2F
meeting and would like Staff assistance for doing that, then they could opt to
use that service if they like.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>As written, I would think that the RrSG would find it difficult to
support TK recommendations considering that the second one is requesting:

know the email I sent to the Council list a few days ago raising the issue of
a tendency towards more and more requests for F2F meetings for WTs and DTs has
not generated much discussion. I do hope this is simply because people have
other things on their plate and not that the issue is of no interest to
anyone.</SPAN></DIV>
