    3. Date: Mon, 25 Oct 1999 03:18:40 -0400

    From Andrew McLaughlin to the Names Council:

    Note that the current agenda for the ICANN Public Forum on Wednesday, November 3, includes about 5 minutes for remarks by a representative of the Names Council. See http://www.icann.org/losangeles99/losangeles-details.htm#Agenda. The NC should designate an appropriate (and available) presenter.

  3. Names Council Chair

  4. General Assembly Chair

    5. From http://www.dnso.org/dnso/notes/19991005.NCtelecon-minutes.html

     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.
