>> As you know, ICANN50 is fast approaching and post NETmundial we are now turning our thoughts to the tricky subject of how to ensure that we carve out enough quality time in the agenda to handle effective and comprehensive public dialogues on the Transition of the NTIA Stewardship of the  IANA function as well as the new ICANN Accountability track.  These will both require a chunk of non-conflicted time in London and the ability to offer high quality remote access to maximise participants from around the world.  
>> 
>> To the latter, we're exploring the possibility of setting up a series of remote hubs as some of you will have seen used at NETmundial to great acclaim. We will explore this idea further over the next week or so and keep you updated.
>> 
>> On the scheduling point, we'd like to suggest that for this meeting only we reshuffle the planned Thursday agenda.  Currently our thinking is that we start the morning at 8.30 to allow those groups having wrap up sessions to handle those requirements between 8.30 and 10am.  We follow this with a two hour session on ICANN Accountability followed by an early lunch break and then run a session on the Transition of the NTIA Stewardship of the  IANA function from 1-3 or 3.30.  This is the most effective time slot to maximise international participation. We'd run a shorter Public Forum from 4 - 6 and wrap up with a public Board meeting finishing at 7 and then Cocktails.
>> 
>> The RSSAC would like an open session during the meeting and we'd propose to put that into a Monday afternoon slot.  We anticipate that two hours will probably be adequate for the Public Forum because the Transition of the NTIA Stewardship of the  IANA function and ICANN Accountability topics will be very important for the community and would likely take up a chunk of the public forum under normal cirumstances.  
>> 
>> If you are in agreement with this suggestion we'd like to communicate it this week to enable people to firm up their travel plans. 
>> 
>> Please let us know your thoughts in the next day or two.
>> 
>> Thank you.
