"This is a necessary initiative that will help the community overcome the gap in knowledge and engagement that was accumulated over the online-only era. One potential improvement could be the addition of a third member to the panel to focus solely on community interaction, while the host focuses on engaging with the guest.  That would optimize both fronts of interaction."   ~ Mark Datysgeld

"The APF fireside conversation on GNSO PDP 3.0 played an important role in introducing end-users to different stages of PDP wherein we can be involved as an observer/active participant and efficaciously contribute to an informed consensus on key policy issues. Justine’s perspicacious questions and Cheryl’s endearing, cogent responses ensured that this informal discussion enabled us to grasp some key aspects of this seemingly complex process. In addition to some fun facts, we developed a deeper understanding of a few things. For example, I wasn't aware of the evolution of PDP. I also never knew that the process of developing an issue report can become redundant in certain scenarios wherein scope and issues had already been well defined and this might call for an ‘expedited’ PDP. Conversations like this help us to deepen our understanding of the eco-system that drive key policy decisions at ICANN. It will still be helpful if some post-reads or FAQs are shared at the end of the conversation for participants as a recap or a way forward to build on their learnings from these informal conversations in a more structured manner."  ~ Prateek Pathak
