[EC-NCSG] [PC-NCSG] Fwd: [soac-discussion] Message from the ICANN Meetings Team - Draft Schedule Agenda

[Rafik]

Hello,

I am not sure about the proposed changes, but if there will be less workshops, it can be helpful for better coverage, and how the community members will have enough space to discuss and interact?
Is there any draft schedule for gnso working sessions in Saturday and Sunday?I also see that there scheduled session for gnso in Monday? 

Best,

Rafik

>> Dear SO-AC Leaders:
>> 
>>  
>> On behalf of the ICANN Meetings Team, attached please find a confidential first draft of the schedule/agenda for the ICANN Public Meeting in Beijing for your review and comments.  Specifically, the Meeting?s Team would like you to get your feedback on the current list of ?high interest? main session topics and the flow of the schedule throughout the week to make sure that we are on the right track. 
>> 
>>  
>> Under Fadi and Sally?s direction, this first draft reflects a new approach to the schedule development process with an effort to map the agenda to our new organizational structure and strategy, and looking to ICANN?s functional staff leads to identify and/or develop the important ?high interest? session topics for their areas of responsibility.
>> 
>>  
>> The primary objective of this new process is the overall improvement of ICANN meetings for all participants by providing reasonable working hours and allowing appropriate time for breaks and meals, thereby increasing the opportunity for community collaboration and interaction.  This means a reduction in the overall number of sessions by using pre-meeting community webinars for topic updates whenever possible, and the consolidation of various sessions and topics into larger single sessions to eliminate overlap, and increase cross-community participation in related topics.
>> 
>>  
>> With the primary objective in mind, the Meetings Team has constructed an initial proposed agenda featuring several ?high-interest? topic sessions to be held in the main meeting room and secondary ballroom on Mon/Wed/Thurs. (See attached.) The session topics have already gone under considerable review by Staff and Board, but it is now time for your reaction and feedback.
>> 
>>  
>> Please review the attached agenda and advise if you think the major sessions in the two largest rooms are the most appropriate for the meeting.  They currently include sessions on the following ?high interest? topics:
>> 
>>  
>> ?      CEO Welcome Session  (90 minutes)
>> 
>> ?      IDN Variants (90)
>> 
>> ?      Next Generation TLD Directory Services (75)
>> 
>> ?      DNS Industry Engagement (new gTLDS, Trademark Protection, RAA) (90)
>> 
>> ?      Experts Panel on ICANN Security (90)
>> 
>> ?      Policy vs. Implementation (90)
>> 
>> ?      ATRT Phase 2 (90)
>> 
>> ?      Operating Plan and Budget (90)
>> 
>> ?      IPv6 Workshop (75)
>> 
>> ?      Internet Governance (90)
>> 
>> ?      Stakeholder Engagement (90)
>> 
>> ?      GNSO Council Meeting (3 hours)
>> 
>> ?      ICANN Public Forum (4.5 hours)
>> 
>>  
>> 
>> Your feedback at this preliminary stage will be very helpful as we continue to find ways to improve the scheduling process.  I hope we will be able to get your feedback even earlier in our preparations for the Durban Meeting.
>> 
>>  
>> Please share your reactions and thoughts on the topics and the overall agenda with this list.  I will collect all the feedback received by COB February 18 and share it with the Meetings Team to help develop the next draft version of the schedule.
