<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear all, <br><br></div>The reps from the Committees will assemble on the 27th and there are a set of different important logistical question to the addressed asap in order to help our preparation. These are what I've listed in different interactions with different lists:<br>
<div><div><div><ul style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><li style="margin-left:15px">Is it going to be invitation only?</li><li style="margin-left:15px">If invite only, what are the criteria for invitation? Who decides who gets invited?</li>
<li style="margin-left:15px">There will be travel support?</li><li style="margin-left:15px">If yes, does people who is willing to attend by it's own cost can also be invited? What are the restrictions?</li><li style="margin-left:15px">
There will be remote participation?</li><li style="margin-left:15px">
What
does participation mean? Are all participants able to speak and
contribute to decision-making if the meeting is indeed outcome oriented?</li><li style="margin-left:15px">Is the final deadline for proposals really March, 1st (in the middle of Brazilian Carnival)</li></ul>As
the lack of final/clear/formal answers on these issues (and maybe
others) is influencing the preparation process and
our ability to plan our actions, I think this questions, and any
additions (as far as related to logistics), should be formally delivered to LOC, even before
the meeting, by Friday at the most.<br><br>I've posed them to 1net steering as well, as it seams Adiel will be attending that particular meeting. So they can also be posed with support of other stakeholder groups. <br>
<br>But, as 1net is not our only channel, it would be good if we could also reassure that our elected CS reps on EC (Adam and Marilia) have these (or more) questions formally reinforced also as a priority from their constituencies in the meeting on the 27th. (sorry for the cross post)<br>
<br></div><div>+1? Suggestions for more questions? <br><br></div><div>best<br><br>joana<br clear="all"></div><div><br>-- <br>-- <br><br>Joana Varon Ferraz<br>@joana_varon<br>PGP 0x016B8E73<br><br><br>
