Hi Bill
Thanks. You raise a good point about the proximity with the IGF meeting. From a personal perspective, of course, I would prefer it to be in Europe ;-)
The meeting in MdR has been planned since January - the suggestion in the 1:1s was to make it 3 days rather than 2 days. I think this is sensible, as we will have a lot to do.
However, the reasoning behind the original choice of MdR is still relevant:
- It's much easier and less costly for ICANN to cover (eg hotel rooms, wireless, and audio streaming), and my understanding is that work has already been done in this regard.
- The West Coasters and Peter had dreadful jetlag for the London meeting, Sarmad said it was equally as bad to travel to London or LA, and it was thought to be fairer to make the Europeans suffer for once!
I'm not sure, apart from you and me, how many others within the RT are planning to attend this year's IGF in Nairobi?
On the assumption that it is only we two attending the IGF, I am in favour of holding the arrangement as is. If it turns out that more of us are heading for Nairobi the following week, then it really does make sense to consider an alternative location within the same time zone.
Can I have comments from the other members of the RT please?
Best,
Emily
