Dear Empowered Community Administration -
<div class=""> </div>
<div class=""> As I will not be in Johannesburg, the NRO (which fulfills the role, responsibilities and functions</div>
<div class=""> of the ASO) today voted to make Paul Wilson the ASO EC Administration representative from </div>
<div class=""> today until 1 July 2017. This avoids any doubt about our ASO EC Admin representative for </div>
<div class=""> purposes of the Empowered Community activities taking place at ICANN 59.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Best wishes,</div>
<div class="">/John</div>
<div class="">
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Chair, NRO</div>

First, thanks to you Mary, and the ICANN meetings staff for choosing the appropriate meeting set up --I believe this grew out of an SO/AC - ICANN59 tele-conference in which I recently participated. I think we got the logistics/room format pretty well
sorted then, although I have not had any formal follow up.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Given that we are apparently in the GAC room, and they need to fire up their meeting straight away at 09.00h, I believe minimal changes are required from their set-up, other than the ability to have either mics or roaming mics available, as well as translation
(which is a given for that meeting room if I am not mistaken).<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

I believe that your assumption "that all five community representatives on the Empowered Community Administration, plus the relevant Board members in charge of “shepherding” the proposed Board Committee handover under the proposed Fundamental Bylaw amendment,
will be seated at the head table." is accurate. That's what I had in the back of my mind.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
As this Fundamental Bylaw change was initiated by one of my two ccNSO Board representatives, I had previously offered my services to take the lead on this with regards to the Community Forum organisation, and if I am not mistaken, my fellow ECA colleagues
agreed to the same.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">
I have prepared brief (5 min) comments about the occasion, the role of the Empowered Community Administration (basically paper pushing and vote counting --not decisional!), an introduction of my fellow ECA Colleagues, an introduction to the proposed fundamental
Bylaw change, and then I thought I would offer the floor to my fellow ECA Colleagues should they wish to make remarks.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

After that, my plan was to turn the floor over to Chris Disspain (I have been in discussions with him about this) who would make his case for the fundamental Bylaw change (after all, it is of his making), and then solicit questions from the audience, which
Chris will have to respond to. He's OK with this.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

I have a short set of questions for Chris should there be nothing forthcoming from the Community, although based on the public comments, I think we are going to get a couple from the audience...<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

if you guys have one of those fancy-pants ;-) ICANN-logoed slide sets that illustrates the proposed fundamental By-law change, that would be great. I describe it in my remarks, but my PowerPoint presentations tend to be non-graphical and mono-chromatic.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Following up on the thread below, staff would like to seek your guidance as to the format, logistics and overall conducting of the upcoming Community Forum at ICANN59. As you know, this has been scheduled for the morning of Tuesday 27 June (Day 2 of the
meeting). In submitting the session request, staff took the liberty of requesting a room that can be set up as for an ICANN Public Forum (i.e. with a head table, the room otherwise in theater-style, with standing mics in the aisles for audience speakers, remote
participation (Adobe Connect) facilities, and (possibly) roving mics and staff around the room.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

We are assuming that all five community representatives on the Empowered Community Administration, plus the relevant Board members in charge of “shepherding” the proposed Board Committee handover under the proposed Fundamental Bylaw amendment, will be seated
at the head table. We are also assuming that you will want to do a very brief overview of the approval process (since this is the first time the Empowered Community is exercising this power), for which we can help with slides if you wish; and that a Board
member will also give a very brief overview of the amendment that is being proposed. Other than that, do you have any thoughts about which of you will lead and/or moderate the discussion, or do you wish to use the services of a professional moderator?<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div>
