<div dir="ltr">Hi everybody,<div><br></div><div>1. I have some additional names for consideration for the Outreach. My apologies for the delay, but I wanted to gauge interest before proffering the names. I wouldn't worry so much about a full room: this being D.C. half those who accept won't show up and if they do it will just make us seem so overwhelmingly popular that folks will wonder what all the excitement is about and want to join. The real fear should be an empty room. I'll just mention the names here in case there is a comment or objection and, for the sake of privacy, will send their contact information directly to Bill:</div><div><br></div><div>1. Todd O'Boyle, Common Cause (director, Media and Democracy project)</div><div>2. David Sobel, Electronic Frontier Foundation</div><div>3. Kim Keenan, Minority Media and Telecommunications Council</div><div>4. Donna Gregg, Institute for Communication Law Studies, Catholic University of America</div><div>5. Paul Levy, Public Citizen</div><div>6. Susan Fischer, law professor, Catholic University of America</div><div><br></div><div>2. Regarding travel arrangements, Counsellors should be aware that depending upon your travel possibilities you may have to chose between doing the Outreach and attending the Council meeting on Thursday January 15th. I've been in touch with Rob and the fact I would not get back to my flat in time for the Council meeting by leaving Wednesday night is not sufficient for ICANN to provide support for an additional hotel night. As such, I will be leaving early to meet my Council obligations and will regrettably have to miss the Outreach. I don't know if anyone else is in this situation but, just in case, I wanted impacted parties to be aware of the policy.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Ed</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Dec 23, 2014 at 12:52 AM, William Drake <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:william.drake@uzh.ch" target="_blank">william.drake@uzh.ch</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hi<br>

I am still uncertain what the schedule requirements for

Again, the offer from Hoggarth is that they will pay for an
extra night of hotel for those people who cannot get flights
out Wednesday after the outreach meeting ends noonish. I
don’t qualify, and if there’s a night flight that’d work for
you then I presume you wouldn’t either. But if you wanted to
press for an exception to the rule I guess you could take it
up directly with Rob.</div>

<div>Personally, politics aside, I’d prefer
to steer clear of anyone who has his minions
produce a self-important Wikipedia entry.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ve received several concrete
suggestions of names but could use more, with
affiliations and email addresses please. After
we get our travel details sorted and over the
holiday hump I’ll send back a proposed invite
list and letter that staff can blast out like
ten days before the meeting.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In terms of content, again I’d
suggest skipping the what is ICANN org chart
thing and go straight to the distributed
presentation of 3 minute issue intros connecting
our issues with stuff folks there might care
about, followed by open conversation. A priori
I’d expect a more focused and substantive
discussion than what we managed in London and LA
if we manage to herd in a bunch of beltway
policy wonks.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What do you folks think we should
cover, and who’d be interested in taking which
piece? Would this be a good starting point?
Topics to add? In total I don’t think we
should talk ‘at’ them for more than 30 minutes
if that before going to discussion, if we got
even a third of the names on last year’s Fadi
list I suspect we’d have robust engagement from
visitors...</div>

<div>Matt, any news on whether CDT’s
office would be available like 10am - noon on
Wed. 14th? What staff have lined up for us now
is a room at Wiley Rein that sits about 20-24
people, so a) we’d definitely need to cull the
invite list and b) this would be in a rather odd
environment for a CS meeting….</div>

<div>
<div>Hi,</div>
</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div>I guess the list
will be shrinked somehow :) I
don't think we can consider ISOC
as civil society for example. we
can try to invite those folks
(anyway nobody talked about
inviting CP80 anyway) and see if
they can confirm their
attendance. even if we don't
expect CFR, heritage or Hudson
to join us, at least we can let
them and others know there is
already group of CS people
involved for years in ICANN and
having expertise. just recall
the letter sent about IANA
transition (<a href="http://oti.newamerica.net/blogposts/2014/oti_sends_letter_to_congress_on_the_dotcom_bill_and_the_iana_transition-107726" target="_blank">http://oti.newamerica.net/blogposts/2014/oti_sends_letter_to_congress_on_the_dotcom_bill_and_the_iana_transition-107726</a>)</div>

<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div>as names , Joy
suggested to check with APC

Rebecca recommendations (and she
wrote about NCUC before) . I can
suggest Susan Aaronson .</div>
</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div>we have 3 weeks
before this meeting and I would
expect us to have some points to
present to those folks.</div>

DC folks?</div>

<div>
<div>Hi Milton</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div>Thanks for
the input, sorry you’re
shocked. As I said,
we’re unlikely to be
able fit all the all the
people below in the room
with us, and people are
providing other names as
well. So I was
suggesting we prioritize
and invite in tranches,
in which case I’d think
we’d start with people
who might conceivably be
open to getting involved
with us, which is sort
of the purpose of an
outreach meeting. But I
don’t care enough either
way to debate it with
you, so we could instead
invite broadly and
whoever RSVPs first and
gets into the room,
that’s who we have.
Send any names you like
from Cato, Heritage,
CP80, House Republican
staff, whatever, and
I’ll pass their details
to ICANN for the invite
blast.</div>

Possible
invitees for
NCUC CS
outreach
meeting in DC
Wed. 13
January</span></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div>
<div>Hello</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>As
we’ve
discussed,
there will be
an NCUC civil
society
outreach
meeting in DC
the morning of
Wed. 14
January, after
the NCPH
meeting.
Probably we’ll
do 10-1pm,
we’ll see.
Think it will
be in some law
office, the
ICANN office
is not
available.
More on that
later. </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>Again,
for the
covered
travelers, if
you cannot get
an afternoon
or evening
flight out on
the 14th,
ICANN will
cover your
hotel that
night. Once
Constituency
Travel starts
to get in
touch on this
and you’ve
worked out
your
itinerary,
please let me
and Rob
Hoggarth know
if you will be
needing hotel
for that
night.</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>I’d
like to do
something
similar to
what we tried
at the LA
outreach
meeting, but
better—have a
number of
people teed up
to speak 3
minutes each
on some of the
issues we work
on, hold all
Q&A until
the end and
then go to an
integrative
freewheeling
discussion.
Since the
folks we will
be inviting
are generally
pretty up to
speed beltway
mavens, we
won’t need to
do a lot of
what is ICANN
introductory
nonsense…just
get to what
we’re doing
and then have
discussion and
say if you’re
into knowing
more or maybe
even joining
please be in
touch. We’ll
sort this out
going forward.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>Below
is the list of
people that
the ICANN DC
office invited
to meet with
Fadi when he
was in DC in
January for
the State of
the Net
Conference. A
number of
these it’d be
good to invite
again, but
some I’d drop,
e.g. people
from
conservative
think tanks
and such who
neither share
our views nor
are going to
get involved
with us. I
don’t know
exactly how
many bodies
the room we’ll
have can
accommodate,
am waiting for
an answer on
that from Rob
and Chris, but
am guessing
we’d want a
mix like a
dozen of us
and two dozen
external
folks?</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div> </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>Depending
on the
numbers, we
may not be
able to
accommodate
all the bodies
we can name,
or might have
to do it in
waves, i.e.
invite a first
tranche and if
some say no
then invite
others. We’ll
figure it
out. What I
want to know
now is, are
there DC
public
interest
activists and
friendly
analysts you
can think of
who are not
listed and
might
conceivably be
interested in
meeting with
us to hear
what we’re
into etc? If
so, please
send me their
names,
affiliations
and email
addresses to
fold into the
list, and then
we’ll sort out
later who’s in
our first
tranche etc.</div>
