purpose? I can understand all-day F2F meeting when we are in the
throes of issues and development - but won't our report be out by
then? <br>

I see your point about burnout from an extra day. We also
probably will lose people because they can't afford additional
travel expenses.<br>
<br>
However, the last two ICANN meetings, particularly SIN, showed
that we already lose important contributors to conflicts for our
sessions during the ICANN week. Client and employer demands, and
general "I'm up to my ears in this stuff already and can catch
up later" attitudes often trump the WG. In addition, based on
experience, announcing closed meetings during the week (assuming
we continue with that F2F model) invite the aggravation of
having to explain why.<br>
<br>
I'm not a fan of an extra day. However, I think it's the only
way to get the critical mass and focus that makes the F2F
worthwhile.<br>

understand the benefits, but frankly it’s not possible.
If the group is okay with eliminating voices and
viewpoints, especially in a time where we are attempting
to increase participation, diversity (gender, geographic,
socioeconomic, etc.) and be more welcome to newcomers,
that’s fine, but be aware of the consequences. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the one big virtue of an all-day F2F meeting is that the
