Yes yes yes, sounds like a fantastic idea, my preference would be option 1 with early members who are still around ICANN given invites but kept to a small number.

Hi 


Sometimes I am rather slow to think of things…. 



The Non-Commercial Domain Names Holders Constituency (which later became NCUC) and other GNSO constituencies were officially recognized by the ICANN Board on Monday 18 October 1999 https://features.icann.org/1999-10-18-domain-name-supporting-organization . We did nothing last year to celebrate our 15th anniversary, which shows some resilience as Internet-oriented civil society networks go. But if there’s sufficient interest, we could make up for it by doing something for our 16th. After all we’ll be in Dublin, hardly a bad place for libation and such. 18 October 2015 is Sunday night, and as far as I know thus far there’s nothing major scheduled that would prevent us from doing something. Or we could it after Constituency Day, on Tuesday 20th, assuming there’s no music night. This might be more sensible as we’ll have just spent the day together etc. 


3 possible scenarios requiring ascending levels of effort: 


1. We assemble all members who will be in attendance and reserve a room in a good pub or restaurant. If the EC approves, we could put the bill on NCUC’s tab. 


2. We assemble all members who will be in attendance plus some invited co-conspirators, in which case it might make sense to ask for space at the conference site. 


3. We hold an open to all party. 


For 2 or 3 we probably would need to seek outside funding, e.g. from ICANN and past supporters, e.g. PIR, CGI.br , etc. 


If we wanted we could have some vets make welcoming remarks, make it amusing. Hire an Irish singer with a guitar. Decorate the place with Milton masks and ask Alex Pisanty to keynote (kidding)…whatever. 


Does this have any appeal to anyone? If so we could create an organizing team. If not, ok no worries, just a thought… 


Best 


Bill
