[council] GA structure, coordination GA - NC, LA schedule

[Elisabeth Porteneuve <Elisabeth.Porteneuve@cetp.ipsl.fr>]

All,

The next NC telecon is scheduled for next Wednesday, October 27th, 
at usual hour (9:00 EST, 15:00 CET, 22:00 Japan/Korea, 23:00 Melbourne).

The telephone number and passcode will be provided as soon as possible.

Whereas we are all teleconferenced out, we have some good reasons
to be back at work.

From the NC telecon Oct 5th:
[ from http://www.dnso.org/dnso/notes/19991005.NCtelecon-minutes.html]

|   * Election of GA Chair, information from Joe Sims
|
|     There is a general misunderstunding about the GA role.
|
|     Action: NC initiate a discussion about the GA structure as well as
|     about relations between different components of the DNSO. From October
|     16th, after elections to the ICANN Board, the NC will initiate the call
|     for nominations for permanent GA Chair. To be elected in LA.
|
|     Action: NC initiate a discussion about concensus. There is a necessity
|     to have more understanding abount consensus. The Chair of GA should not
|     interpret consensus like in Santiago meetings. The coordination between
|     the NC and GA is needed.

I think that during the LA meetings we should try to have
(GA meeting ?) the presentation of constituencies.
Constituencies presenting themselves to constituencies and the GA.
7 times 10 minutes, plus questions/answers. It may take 2 hours,
but could be very usefull. It is of course just a personnal suggestion. 

Kind regards,
Elisabeth
