RE: [council] News Alert -- Toronto Presentations Published
Mike,
With the exception of the baseball game, the RyC has been asking some of the
same questions for a long time and my understanding is that some discussion
occurred in that regard in Toronto, although I was not there. Please note that
the RyC has never requested these meetings.

> On 20-21 August 2009, ICANN hosted its North American
> Registry/Registrar Regional Event in Toronto, Ontario. Remote
> participation for the event was made available via Adobe
> Connect and an audio conference bridge.
>
> The regional event model was introduced in 2006 as a means to
> inform and educate gTLD registries and ICANN-accredited
> registrars about ICANN activities and processes that may
> impact their operations. These events also broaden
> participation in the ICANN multi-stakeholder governance model
> for registry and registrar staff members who do not generally
> attend ICANN's annual public meetings. ICANN subject matter
> experts facilitated discussions on issues such as gTLD
> registry continuity, contractual compliance, new gTLDs, GNSO
> policy activities, security initiatives, the 2009 Registrar
> Accreditation Agreement, and the terminated registrar
> transition process.
> Such discussions enhance knowledge and foster better
> cooperation between ICANN and its contracted stakeholders.
>
> The Toronto event also featured a session on
> registry/registrar areas of interest that was facilitated by
> David Maher, Chair, Registry Constituency, and Mason Cole,
> Chair, Registrar Constituency. The chairs co-led a discussion
> about how the two groups might work better together on joint
> areas of interest such as electing leaders for the GNSO
> Council and engaging in discussions when new registry service
> requests, submitted via the Registry Services Evaluation
> Process (RSEP), have the potential to impact registrars.
>
> In the interest of transparency, the presentations are being
> made public.
