[Ssr2-review] Planning for face-to-face meetings

[Eric Osterweil]

Hey Phil,

Just for clarity: the team has repeatedly expressed the desire to conduct our RT meetings during the ICANN meetings, for over a year; Staff keeps trying to schedule them adjacent to these meetings and we keep objecting.  I am not sure if you sense that there was an agreement to meeting before ICANN63, but I don’t recall that.  Can you please clarify for me if I have missed something?

<no hat>
I personally feel that being able to conduct our work over email is imperative (at least in part).  By contrast, I think the plenary calls are particularly  useful for interactions that require low-latency/high bandwidth (like discussions, disagreement resolution, brainstorming, etc.).  In the past, I think we have tended to overload the plenary calls and have conducted a lot of our work there because the list has been quiet, but I’m worried that the process you have outlined here might put a throttle on our email list discussions.  Maybe I’ve misunderstood though.
</no hat>

Thanks,

Eric

Without a process for resolution, these just add to the general sense of confusion and chaotic decision-making.
