Dear Colleagues!
Warm greetings from Moldova and a Happy New Year full of wonderful 
initiatives, much luck and everything else you wish:)! 
Many thanks for the initiative on organzing a teleconference this week. 
 
And in this context I would like to clarify the following aspects: 
 
- What is the tentative Agenda for the meeting? 
- What shall each of us be ready with for the meeting? (e.g. ideas, plan, 
suggestions)
- Who will facilitate the meeting?
- How long will the meeting last for?
- What are the expected outcomes of this meeting? 
 
Also, this is to confirm that I will join the EURALO Organizational 
Committee for User's Summit. 
 
Wishing you all a great week ahead,
Veronica Cretu 
 



 
Veronica Cretu,
"CMB" Training Center, President

Dear all
 
also from my side welcome back to the business.
 
I fully support Robertos and Wolfs approach and also the two additional 
points raised by Anette. We should also now draft a work plan 2008 which 
should include
a. events (also national and sub-regional meerings like related workshops, 
conferences, meetings etc.) 
b. thematic papers on ICANN issues (both themes mentioned by ICANN could be 
the subject of such an "EURALO Thematic Paper Series"
 
Furthermore, the ICANN Studienkreis will have its 9th meeting in Helsinki, 
September 4 - 5, 2009. Like in Warsaw (and Prague) we start on Thursday 
afternoon. So Thursday, September 4, 2008 morning could be used for another 
EURALO outreach meeting, this time in the Nother part of Europe, the Baltics 
and Russia.
 
Best regards
 
wolfgang

Betreff: Re: [EURO-Discuss] Project appeal + Date/Time for Tel. Conference



dear wolf, dear all,

i would like to add two issues:
1. new geo/city tlds: how to make it a win-win situation for governments and
users
2. how to deal with the "morality"-issue presented in the last gnso-workshop
at the last icann meeting.

i am ready for the tel conf this thursday 16:00 utc.
but i doubt that i will make it to geneva in february, but we will see.

warm greetings
annette

Hi everyone,

I am very much in favor of this. One of the issues I would like to see
ALAC discuss is registrant representation in DNS regulation. Should
domain name registrants perhaps have some beneficiary rights when it
comes to registry and registrar contracts or policies?

Hi Wolf,

Thanks for this useful reboot, I look forward to discussing these ideas and
the others regarding policy work on the conference call.  One organizational
point in the meanwhile: You raise the idea of a board/summit OC meeting in
Geneva on Monday 25 Feb. before the IGF.  I was toying with the idea of
doing a different sort of IG-related workshop at the Graduate Institute on
that day, but could put that idea aside for now if there is sufficient
critical mass to do a board/OC meeting instead.  Barring an unusual
circumstance in which all the conference rooms are busy that day, I should
be able to host such a meeting with the requisite libations etc.  But before
I look into the logistics and budget it would be helpful to know whether
enough of us would be interested and able to attend.  If people could let me
know whether they'd be available that'd be helpful.

Thanks,

Bill
