[council] Remote Participation for Senegal

[Neuman, Jeff]

I agree.  The other part that is extremely frustrating is that for those of us not taking ICANN funding, it is impossible to get a hotel room.  Every hotel is saying they are completely booked because of all of the rooms that are being reserved by ICANN.

So, what is going on?

This makes me mad.

I am not mad at Tim, far from it.

But why ICANN continually chooses places that forces key stakeholders and contributors to not be able to participate to the fullest.

Crazy.

Here’s an idea. Let’s build a remote site and EVERYONE go there...

LA Marriott anyone?

Glen,

Can you provide an update of on the expected availability of remote
participation for Senegal?

Also to all, if there is any movement toward a US or EU remote
participation base, I would be up for that and doing what I could to
help cover costs. I think John was asking about this earlier. Any
interests?

Either way, after further consideration I think I may be attending only
remotely.
