questions directly to the ICANN Board and staff has opened today. The question box will take questions until Wednesday 17
June in preparation for the public forum at ICANN’s international public
meeting in Sydney on Thursday 25 June. Anyone can ask up to two questions or 50 words in length.
The question can cover any topic related to ICANN and its work. Answers will be
provided either during the public forum or emailed and published in the weeks
following the meeting. You can find the form below as well as on the Sydney
meeting website, the blog, and the public participation website. Mexico City experience The question box was attempted for the first time in Mexico
City in March 2009 as a way to allow remote participants to ask questions
directly of ICANN’s Board and staff for the Sydney meeting. It was also
open to those that were attending the meeting in person but felt uncomfortable
asking a question at the public microphone. The box was very popular, eliciting 96 questions from 36
individuals. Answers to every question were then published on ICANN’s
main website, the blog and the Mexico City meeting site. Through the experience three changes have been made this
time around:
