> We have the opportunity to meet with the ccNSO Beijing and have a
> scheduled a meeting slot to do so.  In order for it to go ahead and have a
> good chance of succeeding, we need to plan for it in advance.
>  
> Last week, I talked with Lesley Cowley (ccNSO Chair) to discuss the
> potential for the meeting and the possible agenda items, including those
> which had been suggested by Wolfgang, Maria and Petter and possibly others
> on our mailing list.  The objective in talking with Leslie objective was
> to come up with a number of areas which are likely to be of mutual
> interest and then to find an agreed way for developing and preparing for
> these for discussion together. 
>  
> We reviewed a number of areas / topics and came out with a non-exclusive
> short-list that seemed to be of mutual interest as follows:
>  
> 1.       Providing input and advice, often at short notice. 
> A discussion and sharing of the experience of dealing with the various
> requests that come to both of our groups in order to provide advice or
> input, often at short notice or at unpredictable times, and not linked to
> current scheduled work.  This discussion topic could include and link into
> the broader issue and experience of capacity planning, work group
> participation and work scheduling and planning where the ccNSO has some
> interesting approaches.
> 2.       The impact of gTLDs on ICANN. 
> How significant might this be and are existing structures and approaches
> adequate to absorb and deal with this?
> 3.       Global Internet Governance. 
> Looking at issues on an international level and how these may impact on
> ICANN and the multi-stakeholder model.  Shared experiences from global
> forums and the issues and lessons arriving.
>  
> We agreed that organising and preparing for an agenda containing some or
> all of the above (or indeed any other relevant topics) was best handled by
> a smaller group comprised of members of both GNSO & ccNSO. This type of
> approach as worked well for the ccNSO in the past.  The group should
> comprise a couple of reps from each of GNSO and ccNSO and include the
> liaisons (if not already one of the two) so making a manageable small
> group of 4-6 people.
>  
> I trust that you will be supportive of this approach or something similar
> and look forward to any comments or input.  If you would like to volunteer
> to be on the small group which will organise and plan for this session,
> please do so.
