Oggetto: Re: NCPH Intersessional timing

Thank you Stephanie and Ines.

That makes it clear enough that February is our first choice.

As for the potential conflicts, I got nothing absolute (as in, "I will
definitely be going there") but a few potential ("may go") conflicts
for April/May:

Russian IGF, April 7-10
Internet 2: Global Summit, Washington DC April 23-26
IOT Forum, Madrid April 26
RIPE meeting, Budapest May 8-12

Some people also pointed out that Easter is in mid-April and would
in effect make 13-17 April inpractical.

Nobody has as yet offered any specific ICANN/IG events in August-September
timeframe, but the beginning of academic year impedes several people then.

If you have other potential conflicts in mind, please let me know ASAP.

Tapani
