[CPWG] About Single Subject Meetings

[Holly Raiche]

I like the idea of not using the term ‘single issue’ CPWG calls.  Let’s call them what they are - calls on XXXXX subject.  And for those interested in the topic, attendance is nice but not mandatory.  Keep the CPWG calls so that people can have an overview of what is going on and then dig deeper into the issue(s) they want to follow.  Ed’s right - they are interesting, but they eat into people’s time.

Indeed, at some point, we need to ask ourselves how much of people’s volunteer time ICANN can rightly claim, and what can reasonably be expected of any one individual. (particularly when a lot of those calls are not Sydney-Friendly times)

We need to “keep the lights on,” so to speak, on the CPWG calls and make sure we’re covering all that needs discussing on a particular week so we can’t really just convert them to single purpose as we might start letting things fall between the cracks. Does that make sense?
