[Ssr2-review] Calls and meetings

[Alice Jansen]

Dear SSR2,
MSSI-Secretariat will send out a doodle poll shortly that includes a number of proposed time slots.
We are also working on adding country, timezone and email addresses information to the spreadsheet and will share it off the publicly archived list as soon as finalized.
Thank you,
Kind regards
Alice

Subject: [Ssr2-review] Calls and meetings

Hi, All.

Apologies for being off-list but I was on a greatly needed vacation.  Following-up on a few threads ….

1) Conference call:
Alice – Thank you for volunteering to help the Team find a time to talk soon.  Would you please do a doodle poll ASAP for appropriate call times Thursday, Friday and Tuesday? (Given the timing, would you please put a 24 hour deadline on responses).

2) F2F meeting:
All – Since the number of North Americans on the team are by far the largest contingent (followed by EU), and since one of our legacy members lives in DC and can’t travel, I’d like to suggest that we meet in DC instead of Brussels. What do Team members think?  This not only would allow Kerry-Ann to join us, but also likely would be a more cost effective option, given the proximity of a number of members and the availability of an ICANN office.

Also, I’d like to re-open discussion of the timing of our F2F meeting. Before we agree to meet 3 months from now, I’d suggest we first consider whether there’s a sooner time slot that’s good for everyone. There may not be, but I think it’s worth checking. Would everyone please copy/paste and complete the following in an email to Yvette and Alice (off-list to yvette.guigneaux@ … and alice.jansen@ …. ) by COB Thursday:

I CAN NOT do an SSR2 meeting for 2 or 3 days in:
JUNE (add black-out dates):
JULY (add black-out dates):
AUGUST (add black-out dates):

(Alice/Yvette: we’d really appreciate your help in reporting the results, flagging good slots.) If we find we have an earlier window, we can then explore lining-up the logistics.

While I understand that ICANN staff ideally wants 3 months to arrange meetings, SSR2 is in a unique position. An exception was made when the Board paused the Team; I think an exception can be made to get the Team restarted. Not only are we a relatively small group, but we also are way behind schedule (thanks to the great pause). We have 11 volunteers who have been on this team for over a year and planned to be done with the work about now. I think it’s important to acknowledge the imposition of asking volunteers to restructure their work and personal lives to substantially extend this commitment, and make sure we’re acting expeditiously for all concerned. I also would note that there was an SO/AC chair expectation that our work re-start by the Panama meeting. I think we’re all eager to get this going. ;)

3) Panama:  For those Team members who will be there, please let me know if you’re available for dinner Monday evening (we’ll check another time slot if this isn’t good.)

4) Member Info:  Alice - Thanks for the spreadsheet.  In addition to time zones, could you please add country and email addresses (and distribute it off the publicly archived list).


Thanks.
Denise
