<DIV></DIV>9 am Saturday people may not feel particularly inspired.
wouldn't it be better at the end of the day, when we have our
accumulated frustrations (oh sorry, insights) to share?

<DIV>I would be in favour of the Saturday sessions in Canada starting with
60 minutes of "free speech". Yes, this does take 60 minutes away from
something else, but we generally do not start until 10am on the Saturday to
accommodate any late arrivals, so we could also simply move our start time
up.</DIV>

<DIV>Wolf, as meeting planner for Toronto, could you please plan for an open

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Sorry to confuse with my pidgin English, typing fast. My "would
benefit ICANN generally, not just GNSO, although this would probably
require reinstating at least Friday morning " was meant to convey that
doing something ICANN-wide, and not just in the GNSO, would probably
require reinstating at least Friday morning. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>That said, Jeff is of course right that if we slip in some free form
dialogue at the front end then we'd have to economize on time elsewhere,
and Wendy is right that slimming or skipping the reports could be a way of
doing that, although perhaps that wouldn't be a universal
preference…</DIV>

<DIV>Do we want to start the ICANN meeting week with a similar, open

Thursday?</DIV></SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR>
<DIV>As mentioned I think the insertion of some
Barcamp/unconference-like time into the agenda would benefit ICANN
generally, not just GNSO, although this would probably require
reinstating at least Friday morning to allow the regular meetings to
get done. In the meanwhile though, yes starting the Council's
week this way would be refreshing.</DIV>
