start with the IAB and IRTF chair's report.

The technical heart of the plenary will focus on IPv6 Operations and 
Transitional issues. It is organized as a panel discussion followed by Q&A, and 
discussions on the topic. For more details, see below.


Thanks

Imran Ahmed Shah

Subject: Re: [governance] Our strategy, work plan and outreach


Hello, 

I don't see why we should follow sequential flow strategy->working plan 
->outreach vs parallel flow, I think that Izumi mentioned having facilitators in 
each group who ,I guess, are tasked to coordinate between the different groups 
permitting intercommunication between them. and task like outreach 
is loosely coupled to strategy (outreach should be permanent and not limited in 
time)


I agree with McTim about working in those different space that he mentioned, e.g 
W3C and IAB organize jointly a workshop about privacy a topic which interest 
many IGC members, how can we participate there? what about RIRs etc . but we 
need to explore what we can do there in regard of our resources.

I think a separate list make more sense and work more easy and smooth. the lists 
will be definitely public and open to everybody to join. for topic like strategy 
many threads will be probably started and having a defined list is more 
appropriate. the facilitators or leaders of each group should report to the 
whole list regularly and the co-coordinators will be present anyway.
