>> My proposed agenda:

>>
>>
>>    - *Improved GNSO Stakeholder Group and Constituency Charter Amendment
>>    Process **OFB-WG*
>>    - *Updates to the GNSO Operating Procedures **OFB-WG  ** (5 Minutes) *
>>
>> *We need to discuss whether we think ALAC should respond to both of these

>>
>> *FY 24 IANA Budget **(10 Minutes)*
>>
>> *My inclination is to NOT discuss this in detail at this meeting.  ICANN

>>
>>
>> *Operating Initiatives (**30 - 45 Minutes**)*
>>
>> *We now have time for discussion on the operating initiatives.  My
>> suggestions: UA/IDNs.  Satish and Vanda have done a lot of work already and
>> Satish has already presented.  The time zone for Satish for this meeting
>> will not be good so ask Vanda (or Edmon)?  Also, Internet Governance - and

>>
>> *The other suggested item is Marita’s suggestion to look at the ICANN

>>
>> *Looking forward to feedback so we can set the agenda and line
