Monthly GNSO WG Newcomer Open House Session

These ongoing monthly sessions are for new GNSO WG participants to come
together and discuss any questions they may have about GNSO Working Groups,
procedures and/or processes. We know there is a lot of information to
digest when you join a GNSO Working Group and these monthly meetings are an
opportunity for newcomers and more experienced participants to meet in an
informal setting without the pressure of “real work” that needs be done.

The agenda is flexible. The presenters will be ready with a standard set of
materials if people would like to discuss them.  Feel free to submit
questions, either in advance or at the beginning of the meeting, if there
is a topic that you would like to explore in more depth .  Providing useful
answers to a wide range of questions is part of the reason why these
meetings are

Thursday 11 December at 12.00 UTC

To convert to your local time zone, please see

If you are interested to join the next meeting on 11 December or any of the
future meetings, please let the GNSO Secretariat know (gnso-secs at icann.org)
and we will send you the call details. If there are any specific questions
you already have, or any overviews or introductions you think would be
helpful (e.g. GNSO Policy Development Process or GNSO Working Group
guidelines), please let us know in advance and we will prepare materials
accordingly. Feel free to share this invitation with others that you think
may be interested.

We look forward to welcoming you at the next meeting!
