[NCUC-EC] First EC Meeting of the Year in DC

[William Drake]

I will assume we each prefer to save $15 on breakfast (it’s not included in the reservation). I paid an extra $20 for an upgrade and got sort of small junior suite that couch chairs table wifi kitchen coffee machine.  We could just meet in my room quickly to conduct business and chat a little, and then walk across the street to the ICANN-proved breakfast at CSIS.  Sound good?  I am in room 823.  Come by anytime after 7:45am and we’ll have a coffee and chat and then head over.

We could end up with a few jet lagged people sitting in the hotel lounge without quorum to do anything.  I’ve alas seen it happen before.

We have to eat anyway and don’t have a lot of formal stuff to do so we won’t need more than a half hour to “conduct business” before heading across the street.  The meeting starts 9am.  We will be together for two days and will find plenty of chances to talk about other stuff.
