[council] Draft GNSO Council comments on Proposed Incremental Changes to ICANN Meetings Strategy

[Heather Forrest]

Dear colleagues,

With thanks to Donna, Michele and Carlos for submitting draft Council
comments on Incremental Changes to ICANN Meeting Strategy.

In our comments on Recommendation b, I wonder if it would be appropriate to
clarify the following statement: 'To that end the ability to dedicate
substantive time for PDP WGs to meet face-to-face during one ICANN meeting
each year, and engage in discussions with the broader community during
non-conflicted cross-community sessions, is critical to assisting the PDP
WGs progress their respective work efforts.' To ensure that it is
understood that we mean that PDPs should meet during a public meeting, and
not through a dedicated f2f, it may help to add the word 'public' to 'ICANN
meeting'. Further, I think we might do well to open the door to more than
one such opportunity a year. Thus my suggested edits: "during *at least *one
ICANN *public* meeting each year'.

Paul and I will circulate to the IPC with a view to getting any further
comments back to the list ASAP.

Best wishes,

Heather
