I am looking for to it! I also think we laid some nice groundwork for it at our meeting ? and served the important purpose of showing the community here what we are doing. We had people sitting in the room and listening, some for the whole of the 2 hours. They included ICANN Compliance Staff (senior staff), as well as technical people with Afilias and the Anti-Phishing Working Group, someone from Nominet, as well as others I did not recognize. I have been approached by at least one person, a registrar I think, with complements on the meeting. Hopefully, a well laid foundation will serve us well?. (?)

Then another buffet lunch before you leave on 20th. If anyone needs assistance with travel arrangements, or wants to do anything in London if they have some extra time, do let me know. I would like to make the experience as enjoyable as possible The nearest airport is London City and nearest tube Canary Wharf, on the District line. We will send maps nearer the time.

Unfortunately, although Rod could make time on his schedule, I understand Larry Strickling had prior commitments and has left Cartagena. It would be helpful if the Team could agree on what it would like to do now and let me know. An option to consider is that staff could try to arrange a conference call with the Team and Rod and Larry after Cartagena. We look forward to hearing from you.

However, it's the Review Team's choice - and there is also a risk factor with counting on early morning flights into London in January (for obvious reasons like snow - 5 cm is enough to close Heathrow- and fog, as long as the EU hasn't harmonized European climate to Portuguese standards...) so yes, it is possible.

I think we also need to be respectful of individuals and what we might be asking them to do in the name of fiscal responsibility and the risks we are taking by asking people to arrive on the first day of our meeting and leave on the second. WIth that in mind, I believe we are under-estimating the number of hotel nights that we will need for a two-day meeting (or even the current proposal for a day and a half). While it may be possible for some to arrive in London the morning of our meeting, to do so may require them to secure very early morning flights or trains and we run the risk that those individuals will be delayed, perhaps significantly. I have attended meetings with very tight travel arrangements, but tend to do so only when absolutely necessary.

From kKleiman at pir.org Thu Dec 9 01:21:02 2010 From: kKleiman at pir.org (Kathy Kleiman) Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2010 20:21:02 -0500 Subject: [Rt4-whois] Brainstorming notes Message-ID: Dear All, I wanted to circulate the "brainstorming notes" from our informal session in Cartagena. Tx to Sharon, Susan and Lynn for joining us by phone. Tx to Wilfried, Bill and James for joining us in person, as well as Olof, Alice and Liz. Liz did an excellent presentation and overview of the types of materials ICANN has on Whois - it was very helpful. As promised, let me share with you the brainstorming notes - in draft form. These are the notes that emerged from the two working groups that worked for 45 minutes separately on scope of work issues. When we came together we found many question in common - a framework for our scope of work. Notes below and attached. Please feel free to edit - all who attended. Please feel free to build on these ideas - all! Brainstorming notes from the Information Whois Review Team Session in Cartagena (below and attached - same document) I. REMOTE GROUP IDEAS (as written up on large sheets of white paper) Communication concerns Definitions Consumer + Law Enforcement needed "Consumer:" private + business "Law Enforcement" - policy powers? IP interests? courts? More work in London Scope work not limited Any relevant topics to be included II. LOCAL GROUP IDEAS (as written up on large sheets of white paper, and edited based on Kathy's notes as secretary of the local group) Starting point: we need to have a scope, but I should have some leniency (to cover things we may miss upfront. Our outreach efforts may also help us find bases we have not covered). Keep it open-ended, but be concise. Terms not defined: - Consumer (buyer, registrant, those involved with general operations of the Internet) - law enforcement - legitimate needs of law enforcement - promotes consumer trust Additional aspects to consider: - applicable laws - international jurisdictional issues - different laws - paying attention to laws around the world. - Contract vs. law (agreements among parties for choice of law versus what national law and public policy might require). Look at consultants Non US centric approach Uniform experience for consumers? Registrars under different jurisdictions Competition issues --> consumer experience Regarding approach to definitions: build tree structure to explore these issues starting with Affirmation of Commitments and building from there. Define stakeholders Well defined scope but be flexible Avoid discussing definitions and scope too much, and thus have no time to do work. Discussion - the 3 bullets - pretty vague Scope should not be too explicit, potentially finishing Provide framework vs. definition today III. TOGETHER - When we resumed together (remote and local groups) Considerable overlap in our work. Agreed: "Sounds like rough agreement" -- Review of larger group Before London/London: Work on Definitions Create Framework for the questions we want to ask (to ourselves and others) and a way of processing the feedback we expect. Olof and James suggest working on a tree structure - starting with the basic broad ideas, and further defining them into the details. What's Next? General Agreement on need for: 1. More formal scoping document 2. Merging work today into Wiki document 3. Creating a work plan for London 4. Holding a teleconference before London 5. Opening today's work to the whole of the Review Team for ideas, thoughts, concern, questions and additions.

I appreciate the comments that have been made, and the work that Olof Alice and the staffers are doing on the logistics.

I can understand that travelling from Brussels may be possible on the morning, but hear what others say about the length of flights from other European destinations.

True. Well, I'd also be OK with spending another night in London in order "to deal with that danger", if this is useful. The meeting that was foreseen for me to attend on Friday was moved to one week later, meanwhile. > Any comments?

My feeling in this session was: this is pretty well understood :-) OTOH, there already is/was IRIS, that was developed in the IETF, and that wasn't tremendously successful :-) Of course we had some interaction regarding IRIS being potentially a component in the solution-space, or not... Btw, just to avoid distraction for this RT, my personal interest in this topic is based on the resource registry aspect. Wilfried.

I am happy to accommodate you all as long as possible, as we have waited for a long time to meet and the subject matter and surrounding issues are very complex. I really hope this is going to be the solid foundation on which we build our work. So - very flexible this end - am keeping most of week clear to accomodate any special requests or travel arrangements - but need to now hotel numbers and dates by Monday. Have a good weekend, and happy travels to those travelling from Columbia. Best Wishes Sharon -----Original Message----- From: rt4-whois-bounces at icann.org [mailto:rt4-whois-bounces at icann.org] On Behalf Of Emily Taylor Sent: 09 December 2010 09:10 To: Smith, Bill Cc: rt4-whois at icann.org Subject: [Rt4-whois] London Agenda and Hotels Dear all I've been reviewing these threads re: London. I appreciate the comments that have been made, and the work that Olof Alice and the staffers are doing on the logistics. Given that so few of us made it to Cartagena, I view the informal meeting up the night before as an important part of our team building. I can understand that travelling from Brussels may be possible on the morning, but hear what others say about the length of flights from other European destinations. Please can we extend an extra night in the hotel for members of the team who do not want to travel on the morning. I'm also looking at the agenda over the next day or two, and hear what the US contingent say about planning for 2 full days. Before Kathy and I take this on board - are there any comments in favour of the original plan, ie stopping around 1400 or 1500 to allow those with flights home to catch them. My usual experience of the last afternoon of meetings of this kind is that the group dwindles in size as people catch their planes. Any comments? On 8 Dec 2010, at 22:43, Smith, Bill wrote: =0D Olof, I appreciate, support, and practice responsible spending. I think we also need to be respectful of individuals and what we might be asking them to do in the name of fiscal responsibility and the risks we are taking by asking people to arrive on the first day of our meeting and leave on the second. WIth that in mind, I believe we are under-estimating the number of hotel nights that we will need for a two-day meeting (or even the current proposal for a day and a half). While it may be possible for some to arrive in London the morning of our meeting, to do so may require them to secure very early morning flights or trains and we run the risk that those individuals will be delayed, perhaps significantly. I have attended meetings with very tight travel arrangements, but tend to do so only when absolutely necessary. Also, asking that we plan to leave London on the evening of our second day is impractical at best for some of us. Regards Bill On Dec 8, 2010, at 2:07 PM, Olof Nordling wrote: Hello Kathy, Our thinking was to be parsimonious with the budget and count on Europeans being able to reach London the same morning (like Alice and I have planned), especially since UK time adds a cushion of one hour for those in continental Europe. However, it's the Review Team's choice - and there is also a risk factor with counting on early morning flights into London in January (for obvious reasons like snow - 5 cm is enough to close Heathrow- and fog, as long as the EU hasn't harmonized European climate to Portuguese standards...) so yes, it is possible.

I appreciate the comments that have been made, and the work that Olof Alice and the staffers are doing on the logistics. Given that so few of us made it to Cartagena, I view the informal meeting up the night before as an important part of our team building. I can understand that travelling from Brussels may be possible on the morning, but hear what others say about the length of flights from other European destinations. Please can we extend an extra night in the hotel for members of the team who do not want to travel on the morning. I'm also looking at the agenda over the next day or two, and hear what the US contingent say about planning for 2 full days. Before Kathy and I take this on board - are there any comments in favour of the original plan, ie stopping around 1400 or 1500 to allow those with flights home to catch them. My usual experience of the last afternoon of meetings of this kind is that the group dwindles in size as people catch their planes. Any comments? On 8 Dec 2010, at 22:43, Smith, Bill wrote: Olof, I appreciate, support, and practice responsible spending. I think we also need to be respectful of individuals and what we might be asking them to do in the name of fiscal responsibility and the risks we are taking by asking people to arrive on the first day of our meeting and leave on the second. WIth that in mind, I believe we are under-estimating the number of hotel nights that we will need for a two-day meeting (or even the current proposal for a day and a half). While it may be possible for some to arrive in London the morning of our meeting, to do so may require them to secure very early morning flights or trains and we run the risk that those individuals will be delayed, perhaps significantly. I have attended meetings with very tight travel arrangements, but tend to do so only when absolutely necessary. Also, asking that we plan to leave London on the evening of our second day is impractical at best for some of us. Regards Bill On Dec 8, 2010, at 2:07 PM, Olof Nordling wrote: Hello Kathy, Our thinking was to be parsimonious with the budget and count on Europeans being able to reach London the same morning (like Alice and I have planned), especially since UK time adds a cushion of one hour for those in continental Europe. However, it's the Review Team's choice - and there is also a risk factor with counting on early morning flights into London in January (for obvious reasons like snow - 5 cm is enough to close Heathrow- and fog, as long as the EU hasn't harmonized European climate to Portuguese standards...) so yes, it is possible.

It is modeled on the schedule of the PIR Board agenda (which works well for getting a lot of work done in a short time). Given the long day of the main meeting (Wednesday), it is central that people arrive the day before... and be fully rested and refreshed for our long day on Wed! Is that possible?

Realistically, I do not think this can be accomplished by Monday (which is Sunday night/very early morning Monday morning my time). Everyone in Cartagena will just be returning home and it is quite likely that they will not come into the office on Monday. Alternatively, I think it would be best if I book the approved dates as "one offs" for each individual. This would mean that I would make the arrangements and pay for the rooms directly. The benefits of this scenario are: * Members would not have to be out of pocket (as an FYI, our Accounts Payable Departments takes up to 30 days to make a wire. There is then the issue of returns, holds, etc.); * Sharon and her organization do not need to make a guarantee for such a large amount of money; * I would be able to cancel rooms and receive a refund if members are unable to attend; * Hotel information could quickly be given to those who need it for visa purposes; and * I am able to book the rooms for less than quoted. One additional point to consider is the time frame we are working with (end of Cartagena, holidays, new years, etc.). If I book the rooms directly, I feel we would be able to accomplish this task mush more quickly. To be clear, this would just be lodging and not conference rooms. If you are in need of conference rooms I apologize but I am unable to assist. Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

I appreciate the comments that have been made, and the work that Olof Alice and the staffers are doing on the logistics. Given that so few of us made it to Cartagena, I view the informal meeting up the night before as an important part of our team building. I can understand that travelling from Brussels may be possible on the morning, but hear what others say about the length of flights from other European destinations. Please can we extend an extra night in the hotel for members of the team who do not want to travel on the morning. I'm also looking at the agenda over the next day or two, and hear what the US contingent say about planning for 2 full days. Before Kathy and I take this on board - are there any comments in favour of the original plan, ie stopping around 1400 or 1500 to allow those with flights home to catch them. My usual experience of the last afternoon of meetings of this kind is that the group dwindles in size as people catch their planes. Any comments?
