Meeting with Staff of ccTLD Organizations • Establish a direct communication: • ccTLD orgs and IANA / ICANN staff. • Staff of the ccTLD organizations. • Look inside IANA and ICANN. • To start a network of friends for IANA • to help with inside view in regional situations. • Provide a better service • to the members of this Groups and all ccTLDs. • Example .pt and .ir
Continuing • Montevideo Meeting with Staff from • APTLD, CENTR, LACTLD and ccTLD constituency. • Next will be in Marina del Rey (ICANN Offices) approx. November 10th • Outcome • Mailing list • Meeting in MdR • Next Meetings of the ccTLD orgs.

At-Large Study Committee(ALSC) • The ALSC has spent the last six months studying At-Large issues and seeking input from all interested parties • We found there to be great value in ICANN's existing bottom-up approach and in the involvement of At-Large members • We have concluded that no system exists for incorporating an "At-Large" membership that would fully satisfy all interests
New ICANN Staff • Theresa Swinehart • Legal Counsel for international affairs • Lawyer • Experience through participation in DNSO and Namescouncil • ccTLD Agreements and other international affairs
