| Greetings,
| 
| 1. In preparation for the upcoming ICANN meeting in Stockholm, the 
| NGO and Academic ICANN Study is releasing its Interim Report on last 
| year's At Large election and on the future of the public role in 
| ICANN.
| 
| The Executive Summary of that report is available online at 
| http://www.naisproject.org/ or, for those without Web access, by 
| e-mail to info@naisproject.org. The full Interim Report will be 
| available online shortly. Translations of the Executive Summary in 
| Spanish, French and Chinese will be available later this week.
| 
| The Interim Report is preliminary in nature. NAIS will publish its 
| Final Report, with recommendations, in September. We welcome 
| comments, and look forward to continued discussion on this topic.
| 
| 2. NAIS also invites members of the ICANN community to a lunchtime 
| briefing on the report this Saturday, June 2, at the Stockholm 
| meeting. NAIS members will provide an overview of the Interim Report 
| and host an open discussion of its contents. Please feel free to 
| bring a bag lunch and join the conversation.
| 
| DATE: Saturday, June 2nd, 12:00-13:15
| TIME: 12:00 - 13:15
| PLACE: First Hotel Royal Star, Skytten room (near the Stockholm 
| International Fairs building, site of the meetings)
| 
| We look forward to your comments and suggestions!
