Dear All:<div><br></div><div>I hope you all will join in next week's NCSG Open Policy Meeting, which is an open discussion between the NCSG Policy Committee, including the NCSG GNSO Councilors and the entire NCSG membership. The meeting is held next Tuesday, 2 days before the next GNSO Council meeting to help prepare for NCSG's participation in that meeting. Dial-in and remote participation details are below. Also below is a draft discussion agenda. If anyone needs a dial-out, please let me know at least 24-hours before the meeting to ensure we have enough time to make the dial-out happen.
