[NCSG-EC] [SOAC-Leaders-ICANNMeeting-Planning] Recap & Action Items ICANN83 debrief and ICANN84 Kick off call

[Pedro de Perdigão Lana]

Hi Rafik,

They were not clear yet on the reasons why we must have two sessions on the
same subject. "Advancing work" can be done in one session only, at the end
of the meetings, giving the community the chance to debate their positions
during ICANN84, after starting initial discussion online. Informative
sessions about the subject can be delivered in the Pre-week.

Besides that, AFRINIC + WSIS+20? What was Sebastien's idea here? "WSIS+20
next steps" could be a good topic to debate, depending on what happens in
the following week, but linking AFRINIC to it does not seem to be ideal.

Cordially,

*Pedro de Perdigão Lana*

>    3. *ICANN84 Block Schedule and timeline*
>
>
>
> The proposed block schedule (see attached) has been updated with an
> additional proposed community session on Thursday, in addition to the
> session already scheduled on Monday. This proposal reflects the importance
> of the topic of Reviews that was evident at ICANN83. By having a second
> community session on the final day, following the traditional Constituency
> Day meetings and joint sessions, the thought was that ICANN84 would provide
> a productive opportunity for the Board and community to advance the work.
> It was agreed that there will need to be inter-sessional preparations and
> discussions to enable the work to move forward expeditiously, as well as a
> possible Prep Week session.
>
>
>
> A few other topics were proposed as potential plenary ideas for a
> community session. It was noted that the overall schedule may be
> sufficiently flexible to allow for some topics to be hosted by specific
> SOAC groups as open plenaries, which is already the practice in one or two
> groups. The main idea is to make sure that any community sessions and other
> plenary-type sessions are confirmed and placed on the block schedule prior
> to the opening of the Event Management System request period, to allow for
> maximum flexibility and for each group to decide how it wishes to schedule
> its own sessions.
>
>
>
> As per the timeline (attached), a deadline of Friday 11 July was proposed
> for members of the ICANN meeting Planning Team to consult with their
> community groups as per the action item below.
