>>> Hi all,
>>>
>>> This morning we had the official Opening Ceremony:
>>> The New Delhi meeting is the first of the three public ICANN 
>>>       
>> meetings in 2008.
>>     
>>> Afterwards in the Public Forum - President's Report and Comments:
>>> "This year is an important one for the future of ICANN. The U.S. 
>>>       
>> government is in the middle of its Midterm Review of its Joint 
>> Project Agreement with ICANN, and we're arguing it's time to take 
>> the final step to originally envisioned private sector model for 
>> ICANN," said Peter Dengate Thrush, ICANN's Board Chairman. "In fact 
>> the public comment period closes on the final day of this meeting - 
>> so we expect plenty of discussion about this in New Delhi, and we 
>> will be encouraging everyone who believes in the ICANN model of 
>> coordination not control to make their thoughts known."
>>     
>>> "There wlll be key discussions at the New Delhi meting about our 
>>>       
>> ongoing work to develop a new application and approval model for 
>> new generic top-level domains or gTLDs, and our work on 
>> Internationalized Domain Names or IDNs, which will mean the 
>> languages and scripts of most of the world could be used to write 
>> domain names," said Dr Paul Twomey, ICANN's President and CEO.
>>     
>>> There was a  question from Wolfgang (by remote participation) 
>>>       
>> asking for the future of At-Large at ICANN and the Summit which is 
>> supposed to happen in June 08 in Paris. The question was repeated 
>> by Sébastien. But there was no answer or comment neither from Paul 
>> Twomey nor from Peter Dengate Thrush. Whether the planed Summit 
>> will happen in Paris is still uncertain and no ICANN representative 
>> wanted to expose himself on this question.
>>     
>>> Public Discussion / JPA Review session
>>> Peter Dengate Trush gave a presentation on ICANN's submission to 
>>>

>>     
>>> In the afternoon Workshop we had an Update on Internet Governance 
>>>       
>> and the last IGF with Nikin Dessai and Markus Kummer (what seems to 
>> be a new step towards peaceful coexistence ;-).
>>     
>>> The last part of the afternoon programme was a controversial 
>>>       
>> debate on IDN (Progress on the Fast-Track Process for Introduction 
>> of a Limited Number of IDN ccTLDs). Discussions around IDNs will 
>> include two workshops, one on the Fast-Track Process to find a way 
>> to represent territory identifications in local languages as 
>> country-code top-level domains as quickly as possible in the areas 
>> of highest need, and another on the pioneering work India is doing 
>> on IDNs in Indian Languages and Scripts.
