[Robin Gross]

A few notes in advance of receiving the transcript and recording from  
today's NCSG Open Policy Meeting.

Proposal to organize a couple briefing sessions with ICANN staff and  
Registrar negotiators regarding the recent debacle over the Registrar  
Agreement Amendment (RAA) and ICANN unilateralism.

Proposal to organize a briefing session with privacy-concerned  
members of the WHOIS Expert Working Group about how NCSG can  
contribute to the EWG discussions and possible outcomes of EWG.

Proposal that NCSG help define "public interest" discussion at ICANN  
by preparing a list of criteria to consider in the evaluation (Wendy  
holds drafting pen - looking for input).

Below is the list of discussion topics suggested by NCSG members for  
NCSG GNSO Representatives to propose at Thursday's GNSO Council  
Meeting on the topic of Beijing planning.

GNSO & Board Discussion:
1.  Bottom-up multi-stakeholderism v. ICANN unilateralism
2.  Definition of "public interest" at ICANN
3.  ICANN engagement & outreach plans
4.  New constituencies

GNSO & GAC Discussion:
1.  Policy vs. Implementation - Roles of GAC & GNSO
2.  Definition of "public interest" at ICANN

CCnso & GNSO Discussion:
1.  Rights & Responsibilities document in relation to RAA
2.  ICANN engagement & outreach plans
3.  Regulation of CCtlds that look like Gtlds

I apologize if I've mischaracterized anyone's suggested topic above.   
Please correct me.  And also if there are other suggestions to add to  
this list, please do.

Thanks,
Robin
