Re: [liaison7c] LA MEETING

Hi,

The BC meeting will take place on Monday afternoon too
1:30 pm - 5:00 pm.
Some of our members I know, are members of the ISP constituency . But there
is nothing we can do to change the present situation. I do know some
organisations, but mostly Americans and I suppose this time it will be
easier for them to send more than one person to this meeting.
One of the  discussion topics on the BC agenda is certainly introduction of
new TLDs.

Perhaps at the breakfast meeting we can discuss
 -  how to improve the communication and working process DNSO <-->
constituency secretariats.

Regards,
Maca
