<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">After
conferring with Wolf-Ulrich it seems the only time available that would not
conflict with the GNSO Council meetings and that occurs prior to the start of
the ICANN meeting on Monday would be early morning Saturday the 16th: 7:30 to
8:45 am (ending to allow 15 minutes before the start of GNSO Council meetings at
9:00 am). Alternatively, we could see if there is a topic during the
weekend GNSO Council meetings that is of less interest to SCI members and that
thus would allow an overlapping meeting. Please see the draft
schedule at: <A

suggest.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
