[PC-NCSG] ICANN 53 Constituency Day - Seeking Feedback for ICANN board

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi Sam,

thanks for the comments.
we have usually the meeting in ICANN meeting Thursday with the GNSO elected
board members and that is really productive. shall we have another
breakfast or another kind of meeting with few board members instead of the
cocktail ( which happens by rotation anyway).

@Others  please share your input, same for the thread about prioritisation.

Best,

Rafik
