Whether you plan to participate in the upcoming Nairobi meeting remotely or

status of each major policy issue currently under discussion in ICANN.

The ICANN Policy Staff will provide a briefing on Thursday, 25 February at
13.00 and 19.00 UTC, summarizing policy issues across the different ICANN
Supporting Organizations, namely the Generic Names Supporting Organization
(GNSO), Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) and Address
Supporting Organization (ASO). Amongst other topics, updates will be
provided on:

-       GNSO Improvements

-       GNSO Whois Studies
-       GNSO Vertical Integration Policy Development Process

-       ccNSO Delegation and Re-delegation Working Group
-       ccNSO Strategic and Operational Plan Working Group
-       ASO Global policy for handling IPv4 address space

The two sessions are duplicates, scheduled to accommodate different time
zones. Each session, scheduled to run for 90 minutes, will be conducted in
English only. The meeting will be run in Adobe Connect with a slide
presentation along with a dial-in conference bridge for audio.

Participants will have opportunity to ask questions at the end of each
session. During the course of the webinar, questions may be submitted using
the Q&A function of Adobe Connect. If you are not able to participate in
either of the live sessions, the slides and MP3 will be made available
shortly after the meeting. The policy staff is always available to answer
any questions that you email to policy-staff at icann.org.
