[IGFmaglist] Charter for proposed working group on improving review process

[Lynn St.Amour]

Dear MAG members,

This charter will be on the agenda of next weeks MAG call for approval, so please do take a few minutes and review it.  The MAG acknowledged how important it is to continue to evolve this process and there was virtually unanimous support for proceeding with this Working Group in time to affect the 2017 IGF process.  The time to move this forward is now, please send in any comments on the draft charter ahead of next weeks MAG meeting.

It is unfortunate that Rasha cannot be on the call, but it is my hope that we have the discussion online between now and then so that we can move ahead.   The calls are recorded and minuted so Rasha will be able to follow the discussion following the meeting.   

I will be in Hyderabad for the ICANN meeting, and look forward to saying hello in person to any MAG members in attendance.

Best regards,
Lynn
