[ICANN Academy WG] ICANN Academy WG meetings in Toronto confirmed

[Marilyn Cade]

And disparete views, that means staff and staff consultants have to synthesize. Dive and conquer applies, and puts staff in the middle, which is where they have been. To all of our dismay. And to waste of time, and recycle, recycle, etc.

I couldn't disagree more! Having two sessions means we have more chance of accommodating various people's agendas and getting better attendance.

Sandra and Filiz
Thanks for this proposal.  In my view, there must be a single meeting in Toronto. The rest of the community has major work items
beyond the Academy idea/concept/proposal. We have to have a single discussion.  Holding this from 7:30-9:00 a.m. is an excellent idea.
All of us will do our best to show up on time. 


Personally, I start many BC meetings at 7 a.m., so that I can conclude them PRIOR to the agenda of other meetings. I am willing to meet at 7 am. 
for this meeting/discussion in order to have a single, and focused discussion. It is important that staff and staff consultants are not put in 
the position of hearing different messages. This meeting needs to be about the community communicating with itself and not creating 
yet another setting where we are not talking to and with each other, but reading transcripts, and wondering what happens next.  If you hold
two meetings, you will continue to divide the community and avoid the basic dialogue that is needed among the community members
who have questions, or concerns, or different ideas. It is essential that we area ll in one room, at one time. That was what led us to 
this space -- let's not miss this opportunity for a single dialogue opportunity.  


Please, consolidate these sessions into one single and early session on Wednesday.  


For me, I will have many other responsibilities for my constituency, including focus on SSR; and many other topics. I will not be alone in that challenge.




The Academy is an interesting concept that the community, broadly, is trying to assess. 
It is limited in its contribution to the larger issues that the community is raising. I am committed to a true assessment of how/whether
it can evolve  to serve the community.  


Those of us who are committed to this discussion will show up at 7 a.m.. We do it all the time in our daily work lives. 
Serve croissants with the coffee and juice, and we can handle the complaints about breakfast. :-) 


Marilyn Cade, BC Chair
