Hello,

A reminder to everyone that the NGO and Academic ICANN Study (NAIS)
Workshop on "The Future of the At-Large Membership & Public
Participation in ICANN" will be beginning shortly. The workshop
begins at 9:00 AM on Friday, Melbourne time--but please note that in
many parts of the world, this means that the live audio stream will
become available on the evening of Thursday night.

A tool for converting from the 9:00 AM Melbourne start time to the
local time in your part of the world is available at:

Also, we've published the workshop's final agenda. Please find it
attached below; it will also be available, along with the live audio
