Karen, Frannie, EC members Here are some agenda items I have proposed. Feel free to add, subtract, modify. 1. Election of 3rd Council member Carlos is not officially elected, he's just a carryover. We need to organize an election soon and this is a good place to bring it up and get volunteers. Of course the election would have to be held online. 2. Carolina Chavez Formally on the Executive Committee as LAC representative, but has never voted or participated, therefore under our rules we need to find a replacement. I have waited to do this until the Argentina meeting, because she may show up there - in which case you can persuade her to be more active - or Erick, who nominated her, can be tapped to propose an alternative. 3. ncuc.org Report on progress? Other steps? 4. Reports from Council members Robin and Marc need to identify the critical issues coming up 5. Carlos's idea about an "ICANN civil society caucus" Will no doubt be discussed in joint meeting, but NCUC might want to get its own ideas formulated 6. Chair election Not too soon to think about who is going to replace me. Charter imposes term limits - two terms for a candidate. 7. consumer protection issues Lots of utter bullshit going on in registrar contracts and registrar-registrant relations that need to be addressed from a consumer protection standpoint. We might consider making this a campaign long term. Since this is my idea, and many of you may have no idea what I am talking about, this can wait until the European meeting, which I will attend. >>> karen banks <[log in to unmask]> 3/23/2005 9:47:36 AM >>> I won't be attending but would like to be able to contribute do you have an agenda at this point? ideas of what you'll be discussing?
