Dear All,

Warm Greetings from Buenos Aires! We have converged in Argentina for the
ICANN 48 which marks some interesting transitions in the growth and
development of policies, cross-constituency collaboration and sharing of
Studies on critical policy areas. The meetings will be incomplete without
participation of communities who may not necessarily be here in person. The
good news is that there is Remote Participation available unless the
meetings are marked as closed. For those who have issues in low bandwidth,
there are streaming options and capabilities designed to bring the meetings
to the comfort of your offices, homes and organisations.

In a few hours, which is Sunday here, we will be having preparatory
meetings before the ICANN 48 meeting officially opens on Monday. There are
some constituencies that have already been meeting early this week, coupled
with the ICANN Academy Training for selected leaders of cross
constituencies.  Simultaneously, the Latin American DNS Forum was convened
this week in the lead up to the ICANN 48.
