<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Agree with you both.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Updates are of course useful, but can be pre-meeting webinars/pre-reads/perhaps a 2 minute overview with one slide as an intro for the F2F. Then we need to know projected timelines, any issues/problems/blockages
and everything Michele lists. We’re supposed to have an overview of process including concerns and of course we do have to meet physically as we’re supposed to help as well as represent!</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">My own thoughts are that any “updates” should be more of a dialogue.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there something happening within the PDP that we need to know about?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is action from us required?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do they need something from us?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do they need something from the various SGs etc?<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Council colleagues, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As we enter the final stretch of pre-ICANN63 planning I would like to do a bit of strategic thinking about how we prepare for PDP work in Barcelona.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have over the years tried two methods - devoting time in the Council weekend workshop to an update from each of our live PDPs, and the more recent alternative of a pre-public meeting GNSO policy webinar. There is also, I should add here
for context, a broader ICANN policy webinar that occurs prior to public meetings in which the GNSO participates, as do other SO/ACs.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The question here is how best/most useful/most efficient to update on our PDPs: on the ground in Barcelona, or advance by webinar? My principal feedback to staff to this point has been that while I think it's very helpful to have the updates
before we hit the ground at a f2f, it seems to duplicate efforts to hold both a generic policy webinar
<i>and </i>a GNSO specific policy webinar.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your thoughts very much appreciated!<o:p></o:p></p>
