[Ssr2-review] Next call and misc items

[Denise Michel]

Hi Team members and Staff.

In an effort to keep things moving forward, and as one of the co-chairs prior to the “pause,” I’d like to address some administrative items.  As we’ve noted, with new members on the Team, and as the Team enters its second year, we’ll be doing a fresh call for leadership volunteers (chairs, vice chairs, sub-group/topic leaders…. whatever construct the Team decides to use.). Until we do, Eric and I have volunteered to continue to facilitate Team calls/meetings. If there are any Team members who would like to help, we’d welcome it. We’re all busy volunteers; if you want something done, or done differently, it’s incumbent upon you to speak-up (and preferably step-up and/or suggest resources we should add to support the Team).

Next Team Call:

  *   The time the group selected for the next SSR2 call is 15:00 UTC, Thursday, 05 July 2018.  Please contact staff directly 1) if you don’t have a calendar invite, and 2) if you are unable to participate.
  *   Where we left things… I just found a summary of our last call here<https://community.icann.org/display/SSR/SSR2+Meeting+%2335+-+19+June+2018+@+16%3A00+UTC?preview=/86607337/87622232/Plenary%20Call%20Report%20%2335.pdf>. It’s on this wiki page<https://community.icann.org/display/SSR/SSR2+Meeting+%2335+-+19+June+2018+@+16%3A00+UTC>. (Staff – to help us all get accustomed to your protocols, would you please email to the list when these items are posted.)
  *   I’ll work with Phil to create a draft agenda for Thursday’s call and it will be sent to the list shortly for your input. (Eric’s on vacation)

Next Team Face-to-Face Meeting:

  *   Based on Team input and availability, we suggest locking-in Aug. 22 – 24 in DC for our next meeting. Unfortunately there’s no date or location that meets everyone’s needs/preferences but this seems to be the best. If further discussion is needed, I suggest people use the email list and we’ll include this in our call agenda.
  *   Staff – would it be possible to centralize and have you quickly address the paperwork needs of Team members who require official letters to travel?  Some Team members have been waiting months and it would be a shame if they missed our August meeting due to this.


A Few To Do’s:

  *   Eric and I volunteered to send a draft digest to help new Team members get up to speed on past work and we’ll post it today; additions from legacy Team members is encouraged.
  *   Phil (Facilitator) is talking to each Team member individually and will come back to Team with his suggestions of how to assist us in moving forward.
  *   Staff – please send Team members’ contact info off-list to each member by tomorrow. Amin, Kaveh, and Noorul – it would be great if you could return the questionnaire to staff today so you can be included.

Open Items:

  *   What are the questions that we need to/and want to initially address as part of our “un-pausing”
     *   Matogoro emailed his suggestions
     *   We briefly discussed the idea of a call with the Board (Board Cmt?) and one with the SO/AC chairs (What would be the objectives? What needs to be done prior to calls?)
     *   Other? (please share on list and on call)
  *   At a minimum, to re-start the Team’s work, we need to review and confirm the scope/terms of reference, identify leadership positions/people, ways to reach consensus. (See email from SO/AC chairs<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/ssr2-review/2018-March/000935.html>)
  *   Questions around Staff support and resources also are outstanding (See email from SO/AC chairs<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/ssr2-review/2018-February/000933.html>)
  *   What do new members need to get up to speed so we can start working? (aside from digest) Briefings on major buckets of work was suggested… anything else?
  *   Other? (please share on list and on call)
