Open Policy discussion Meeting - 19 May 21-23 UTC

[Avri Doria]

Note: 

On other issues we need to discuss is the issue in the RAA group B where the Registrars are insisting that they be allowed to negotiate with ICANN staff in a closed door manner on any issues that are not consensus policy issues (i.e. not in the picket fence).
