[Gac-gnso-cg] Work Plan for and at Singapore ..

hi all,

i think we have a little bit of a puzzler about the level of detail we want to go into when answering that series of questions.  i’m inclined towards “less detail” so that we don’t accidentally launch a 6-month analysis effort.  but even a high level analysis is going to be hard to complete during the 2 calls that remain between now and Singapore.  

maybe we could focus our call this week on on that which we already completed and ready for presentation in Singapore? we have quite a lot — charter, ideas, some pictures...  then we could tidy up the (short) presentation by our next call?

I will apologize in advance for not having had sufficient time to devote to this last week, due to the press of prep work with USG agencies for Singapore.   But as I consider Manal's and Ana's email messages, I'm mindful of the need to bring myself up to speed quickly and be better informed as to work load requirements for this project leading into the Singapore meeting.

Do we want to develop a timeline or some milestones to ensure that we don't get out too far ahead of our respective communities?   In raising these questions, it's not my intention to appear to be questioning the direction or scope of work at all; just taking note of a broad range of activities that the ICANN community is grappling with and wanting to be sure we can manage both progress and expectations while also drawing more of our GAC and GNSO colleagues into the work itself.

If the 1st one might not be feasible due to the scheduling, I don’t see it as problematic as we are working on that through conf call, yet we should use the opportunity to be all in Singapore to a debrief/f2f meeting after the GAC-GNSO joint meeting - and not to wait to the next conf call post Singapore.
