[council] Draft Agenda for Council meeting Thursday 21 October 2004

[Cade,Marilyn S - LGCRP]

Dear Bruce and fellow Councilors

Thanks for your update to the agenda for Council.


I believe we need a number of quick updates by Staff related to items that affect the work of the Council as well as a couple of items we just need to figure out how to proceed on... 

I propose that we add in for Staff Updates: 
	Status on recruitment and interviewing schedule for filling policy support staff positions
	Update on schedule for meetings for Cape Town
	Status on posting of Strategic Plan
	Provision/posting of any documents from ICANN to external entities, including OECD, WIPO, any others requesting 	work/input to the Strategy for new gTLD Implementation as well as the actual responses and reports provided by the 	external entity.
	
We also need to discuss further how to proceed with the development of criteria for liaisons to other Supporting Organizations in terms of expected roles and responsibilities. Once this is done, we can then proceed with selection of the liaisons.   Perhaps this could be a work item for Council at Cape Town.
