   2. Agenda and related documents

     This is the second teleconference after Accra dedicated to ICANN Reform

     Proposed NC Agenda April 4
    The following order of topics is proposed for the next Names Council
calls:

     1.Funding
     - Short term
     - Long term

     2.Advisory Bodies

     3.Management of advisory bodies

     4.Stakeholder participation

     5.Board composition

     6.Transparency

     I propose a first pass where we seek areas of common agreement and then
     we revisit to discuss areas where constituencies have differing views.
     Our timeline is short. The Evolution committee has said it wants input
     by April 29 to be useful. This differs from the timeline indicated by
     Stuart Lynn in Ghana (May 15.) upon which the current schedule of NC
     calls was based. For now I do not propose any additional calls but we
     can re-evaluate that as we proceed.
