Hi,

Thanks Farzaneh for the requests draft.

maybe just to set the expectations right here:

- we are requesting 1 hour every morning for outreach AND policy discussion
purpose. We should have that in mind in term of preparation and briefing
about policy issues based on the day schedule since we need to include and
involve newcomers while working on NCSG policy positions. Based on the GNSO
preliminary block schedule (
https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/icann59-draft-gnso-schedule-19apr17-en.pdf),
several PDP session seems to start at 8:30 am which may create some
conflicts.

- 30min lunch daily meeting to reserve the slots and have that for whatever
purpose. GNSO council may have a working lunch on Monday and the council
public meeting will start 30min earlier on Wednesday.

I guess we should also have in mind some logistical questions such as: is
the venue near to the hotels or not (just to avoid the challenge of coming
early to the venue) and also ensuring proper access to food if we don’t get
catering :).

the schedule will be busy anyway :) but I do think we have to prepare for
those sessions if we are aiming for policy discussion and sharing the
workload among us. the Policy Committee should organize and support those
sessions.

Best,

Rafik
