Staff has checked with other departments (e.g. Compliance) as to their planned sessions for the week in order to
minimize conflicts as much as possible. However, please note that much still depends on variables that we cannot ascertain at this stage, especially the question of how many sessions there will be on IANA stewardship transition and accountability, and when
these will take place. Nonetheless, we venture to suggest that the most feasible times for the two-session option would be Sunday 21 June (possibly from 4.30-7.30 or 5.00-8.00 p.m.) and Wednesday 24 June (similar times as for Sunday).</div><div><br></div><div>As such, we now have a choice to make as between Friday 19 June and a combination of Sunday and Wednesday evenings as indicated above (though please note that this may be subject to change).</div><div><br></div><div>In order to assist the chairs with the final decision, which they hope to make as soon as possible to enable those planning to be in Buenos Aires to confirm their travel arrangements, here is the new poll:
<a href="http://doodle.com/2zt2s2pnfm2k3sy5">http://doodle.com/2zt2s2pnfm2k3sy5</a>. As with the earlier poll, it’s been designed to show the chairs which is everyone’s first option – please use the Comments section if you have concerns, have no preference,
or other comments. For members who are not going to be in Buenos Aires, please note that full remote participation facilities will be available for the F2F meeting.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you!
