              <div>Reykjavik: I keynoted at the Icelandic IGF in
                February 2011, which was organized by the government.  I
                asked why they didn’t do a multistakeholder planning
                process and the answer was we really don’t have an
                organized civil society IG scene here. I was initially
                skeptical but over the course of the event I did manage
                to meet a few CS people, e.g. Pirates and grad students,
                and they basically said the same. Maybe things have
                changed, but if outreach is a guiding concern this it
                might be worth looking into.  I might add that re:
                weather the snow was a meter deep, it was well below
                freezing, and the wind was fierce, but maybe that was
                unusual.  Getting in and out was difficult as weather
                meant flight problems and the immigration people almost
                made me miss a plane with an hour interrogation about a
                small folded edge on one of my passport pages, wanted me
                to stay the night and go to the embassy to verify my ID,
                fun argument. Maybe that was unusual too.</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Johannesburg: From an outreach standpoint, there’s a
                substantial civil society scene, which we connected to a
                bit by organizing a session and hosting the reception at
                APC's first African IG summer school before the Durban
                ICANN meeting.   APC could help make something
                noteworthy happen here.  As Rafik also notes, if
                attached to the meeting, we could expand the
                intersessional so that members who not on Council or the
                NCUC/SG ECs can participate.  We added some slots for
                regular members at the DC meeting and CSG was keen to
                more than we agreed, so it could be salable.  And we
                could ask staff to cover some additional hotel nights
                for people to attend, since they’d be saving a very
                large pile of money on air fares.</div>
              <div><br>

              <div>In any event the location has to be negotiated with
                staff and CSG, but in terms of our opening position I

                          <p dir="ltr">Yes like many I don't have the
                            luxury to be away for long time from work
                            and family and I usually take that on my
                            limited holidays. The meeting B in
                            johanesburg next year is shorter by design
                            and also focused on policy. I think CCWG
                            meeting will be held in sunday as happened
                            in Helsinki meeting and we can avoid any
                            clash.<br>
                            It is more easier for people to add 2 days
                            to 5 days meeting than taking 5 or 6 
                            separate days off (at least depending on the
                            itinerary) to attend a standalone meeting
                            such the intersessional. </p>
                          <p dir="ltr">Having it in Johanesburg also
                            means a possible outreach and also having
                            the opportunity to members to attend the
                            meeting and not just the leadership. <br>
                            I have no specific position about Iceland
                            why I know that we have to consider issues
                            such visa and itineraries  for those from
                            LAC, Africa and APAC. <br>
                            At least Hyderabad meeting  made all of us
                            equals with regard to visa hurdles and
                            difficulties, something some of us have to
                            handle for every ICANN meeting. </p>
                          <p dir="ltr">It is too early to dismiss any
                            option or push for a specific one and we
                            will have to see all pros and cons according
                            to objective criteria. When we get more
                            information and suggestions, I think we can
                            make a decision with acceptable trade-off.</p>
