Fwd: [council] Open Board Sessions 6 and 7 May

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Michael,

There is common ground between the 2 groups and willingness to cooperate
more  as it was discussed in CCWG-IG session in copenhagen meeting. We even
amended the charter to highlight that (pending approval from chartering
organizations)
The session seems a working meeting for the board and I expect that
outcomes will be shared with the group.

Best,

Rafik

Hi Rafik,

Thanks. Is there an agenda available?

Please also recognize the seemingly frustrating layers of complexity here.
I never even realized there was a board working group on IG. And I then
given the level of interest expressed in Copenhagen (by board members), I
am surprised that there is no link between the board's WG on IG and the
CCWG-IG.

Best,
-Michael
