Hello
Everyone,
I
am very happy to
welcome
our new organizational and
individual members who were approved by the NCSG EC this spring.
They
were
successfully
added to this
mailing list and
so should be
able to read
this welcoming
email, and
follow the
discussions.

I
am happy as the NCSG
chair, to support
new and existing
members in order to
assist them in
becoming fully
involved, in order
to participate in
our policy
discussions and
contribute to the
work we do. Please
do not hesitate to
contact me if you
have questions or
would like advice on
where to start. We
have many
experienced members
and officers who are
happy to help. I
have put some in cc
for your easy
reference.
There
are many
opportunities to
learn about policy
development, but a
good place to start
is our monthly
policy call, which
usually takes place
during the week of
the Generic Names
Supporting
Organization (GNSO)
Council call. This
month, the Council
call will take place
on May 19 at 12:00
UTC, and the full
details and schedule
of Council
activities can be
found here : https://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/calendar.
Watch for
announcements of
policy and working
group webinars on
this list, they are
targeted to help
bring us all up to
date with what is
happening in
difference groups
and topic areas.
Please note the
quarterly GNSO
Working Group
newcomers Webinar,
for which the
schedule will be
shared in due time.
Because
we are coming up to
the public meeting
to be held virtually
in the Kuala Lumpur
timezone (https://meetings.icann.org/en/remote68)
from June 22-25),
there will be
special webinars on
topics to be
discussed at the
meeting. We will
send them to this
list as we get them,
they are a great way
to learn about the
issues.
Rafik
Dammak is the chair
of the NCSG Policy
committee, and he
shares updates on
calls for public
comment regularly on
this list. To
follow the public
comments calls, go

https://www.icann.org/public-comments#open-public.
The next policy
committee meeting
will be held just
prior to the GNSO
Council call on
May 19; our ICANN
support person
Maryam Bakoshi
will be sending
out reminders for
that meeting.
Here
is some basic
information you
should keep
