> Actually, Avri.  As I start to work more seriously on the topics, I think the group may find me in listening mode for several of them, because of the Board directives.  Specifically on the following:
> 
>    CEO recruitment - how do you think that should be done?  What sort of candidate are you looking for?
> 
>>> We don't know yet, and I am firmly of the view that we need to understand the community's views
> 
>    In regard to the emergent process that Katim has catalyzed concerning the development of a strategic vision for ICANN engagement with developing countries: should the Board support this endeavor?  Do you?
> 
>>> I can give my views, but again, I have more to learn than to say
> 
>    Is the objection process for new TLDs still being revised in response to GAC demands?
> 
>>> This is on the record, so again, happy to listen for views
> 
>    Discussion on the new constituency process in NCSG
> 
>>> I would like to hear views
> 
>    Regarding domain name shut downs: A discussion on the need for accountability, procedures and judicial oversight. What should ICANN's position be?
> 
>>> I would appreciate hearing views, but do not have anything to say at this point except in general terms.
> 
>    What should ICANN position be in view of emerging alternative DNS structures and naming conventions?
> 
>>> This is very interesting to me, and I'd like to get a sense of views in the exchange.
> 
> I hope that additional clarity helps

> If you could pass on to the list that I am open to discussion of all the topics listed, but would expect much of the call to be spent with me learning from the community, rather than passing on information, I'd appreciate it.  As you all know well, I am bound by a confidentiality agreement that means I am not able to pass on any information during this call that is not publicly available to the entire ICANN community.  I am of course able to speak to my personal opinion, but will have to preface those remarks with a disclaimer that I am offering only my personal opinion.  I hope that is what we were all expecting anyways.
