NCSG: Summary notes from call with Goran Marby Jan31

[Stephanie Perrin]

As discussed at the policy meeting in january, the call between the CEO and the NCSG Chair took place on January 31, and the summary notes are attached.  These were provided by ICANN staff, and are very high level.  Feedback on what should be discussed in the next call, which will take place sometime between ICANN 64 and ICANN 65, would be appreciated.  I would draw to your attention:

  *   impending budget reallocations are likely to impact us, we need a strategy
  *   I intend to follow up in Kobe in discussions with CEO and the Board what "simplifying" the MS process means
  *   we need to exercise fiscal prudence and develop metrics for success.
  *   we have been talking about volunteer burnout for years now at ICANN (actually we ignored the problem during the IANA transition, because we knew everyone would be working insane hours).  It is time for us to come up with some of our own solutions, I doubt anyone is going to do it for us
  *   there was a lot of focus in our discussion on EPDP, because we were down to the final days on that massive exercise, with many serious issues not fully addressed.  We need to discuss a few of the other ongoing policy developments, we need a break....

I am happy to try to answer your questions, if I can.  This was in my view not a particularly informative call on either side, I will prepare my own briefing note to send ahead with a discussion of our key concerns the next time; it is not a particularly relaxed conversation so more formal preparation is clearly needed on my part.

In the meantime, don't forget to suggest topic for discussion with the Board in Kobe....last call!

Kind regards

Stephanie Perrin

NCSG Chair
