While ICANN continues to examine the overall structure of its meeting dates
and geographic rotation, it is important to move forward with future
planning. In an effort to secure the dates for ICANN meetings through 2013,
Staff recommendations have been developed for Public review and comment.
Approving the meeting dates is important to prevent conflicts with other
community events and to allow all participants sufficient time to plan their
travel and attendance.

The proposed dates below have been selected based on careful avoidance of
important holidays, celebrations, and observances around the globe.
Similarly, every effort was made to identify and prevent scheduling
conflicts with other community events.

ICANN will not be able to accommodate every request for a date change.
However, in an effort to be fully cognizant of holidays and occasions from
countries and religions around the world, we’d like to provide an
opportunity for comment so the ICANN Public Participation Committee of the
Board can move forward with approving the dates.

*Deadline and How to Submit Comments:* The Staff is opening a 30-day public
comment forum, from 13 July 2009 through 14 August 2009, and invites
community comments on this topic.

To submit comments: Comments are welcome via email to
proposed-meeting-dates at icann.org. This public forum will be open through 14
August 2009.

To view comments: An archive of all comments received will be publicly
posted at http://forum.icann.org/lists/proposed-meeting-dates.
