[Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Face to face facilitated Working Group session at ICANN52 in February 2015

[Mary Wong]

Hello Phil, and thanks for the catch! I should have made it clearer that the
6 slots are allocated per Stakeholder Group (SG) and not 6 per Constituency.

As this is a pilot project, we will be soliciting feedback from each
participant after the meeting, so hopefully any Constituency and other
concerns can be raised then for the GNSO Council to consider when reviewing
the success of the pilot project at the end of the financial year.

Thanks much!

Cheers
Mary
