1. Thanks for asking about this Donna, I had wondered and got busy
and forgot to follow up.<br>
2. For those of us who signed up to help with the Google doc, has
there been any discussion? Given the volume of traffic, one could
be forgiven for missing something but I had not heard anything.<br>
3. This seems to me to be a very important topic, a little too
important to be relegated to a BOF on a jam-packed schedule. The
lovely thing about have a formal working group is we can all see the
transcripts. <br>
Kind regards<br>

particular, at the Dublin public meeting there were
discussions with members of the GNSO’s commercial
and non-commercial community about the potential
future direction of the GNSO linked to the recent
independent review efforts. You may have noted a
number of viewpoints recently expressed that the
current GNSO review has been limited to just
operational matters whereas some had urged a broader
structural assessment. Rather than field individual
community inquiries, Board members seemed interested
in facilitating broader community discussion to see
if the community itself had an interest in pursuing
those structural conversations more broadly.</font><o:p></o:p></span></p>

leaders of the GNSO community’s non-commercial
community met for their Intersessional Meeting in
Los Angeles (February 4-5) and continued general
discussions about the potential future directions of
the GNSO. That group agreed to establish an
informal group effort – not a formal process yet –
and to try to continue their conversations in

has been considered that continuing the conversation
in an informal “birds of a feather” environment may
be a good way for giving interested community

each other on their various thoughts and efforts and
give them all an opportunity to see these various
threads and how they might be connected/related.</font></span></p>

an interest by showing up and engaging in an informal

members would be able to attend the session, but that is
looking less likely now given meeting conflicts. </span></div>
