Dear David
Thanks for this 'heads up' that you sent regarding a briefing on a draft framework for Outreach.

 This topic was referenced by Board members in Dakar. I had asked at that time for the PPs that Kurt Pritz had presented to the Board Committee to be shared with the Chairs of the Constituencies/SGS, and I am pleased to see a step in that direction. However,
I would strongly recommend that the briefing be moved to next week.  All of us are working on our input on the Budget/Operating Plan, and we have consultation responsibilities, as well as deadlines to meet.

The proposed timeline is a bit too close to other deadlines.

Can you work with Kurt toward moving the briefing to next week?

This sounds like a useful discussion, but we need to realize that the 2013 budget is moving forward, and that most of us have concerns relative to funding of activities that were proposed for 2011 and 2012, and to our regret, ignored, or obscured due to many factors.

It is very important to include all of the Chairs within the GNSo's SGs/Constituencies, and of course, to include the GNSO's Council Chair, so that the policy related inputs can also be addressed.

I have added in the Vice Chair of Operations/Finance for the BC, who will join me in these discussions.

I would also note that it would be important to include the ALAC in this briefing.  Can you try to move it to next week, if at all possible?

Marilyn Cade
BC Chair

Subject: Request to "Save the Date" on December 13 for a Briefing of SO/AC Leaders on a Draft Framework for Outreach

Stephane (and other GNSO leaders):

In an effort to improve our management and planning processes, ICANN COO Akron Atallah asked several senior staff members to lead an internal Staff working group to begin building an overall framework for how to define and address the full range of ICANN Outreach activities.  Once created, this framework would serve as a starting point to engage community leaders in a full discussion of Outreach goals and strategies: from definition to activities to validation of budget requests, with the goal being the development and implementation of a collaborative Outreach initiative.

An initial draft Outreach framework was shared with the Public Participation Committee in Dakar, and the time has come to begin work with the community on next steps.  We hope that this initiative will work in parallel with the building of the FY 13 Budget and Framework, as there will no doubt be community requests again this year for Outreach programs and activities.

Kurt Pritz intends to share the staff work so far with the SO/AC leaders in a briefing in mid-December for that purpose.  Please "Save the Date"  of Tuesday, December 13.  We will also work on the best timing for the session.

A formal request for your attendance will be sent shortly. If someone other than you, the chair, should be in attendance, please let us know that individual and their email address as soon as possible.

Regards,          David
