The GNSO Council had agreed previously on the need to start planning early for ICANN58, and to confirm certain important sessions (including joint meetings with other SO/ACs and the ICANN Board) as fixed in the overall meeting schedule. Advance planning will be helpful for scheduling purposes, including for GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies, coordination between and with other SO/ACs, and ensuring that sufficient time is given over to policy development work. To assist in the Council’s deliberations, staff compiled all GNSO Council input received on the ICANN58 Council Planning Survey: https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/icann58-council-planning-survey-30nov16-en.pdf. Based on the Council’s deliberations at ICANN58 and its two December 2016 meetings, the Council Chairs, with the assistance of staff, have been developing a proposed ICANN58 schedule for the GNSO Council. The draft GNSO schedule was circulated on 12 19 January 2017 (see https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/drafts), and attempts to take into account the current overall block schedule (see https://meetings.icann.org/sites/default/files/icann58_blocksched_draft2.pdf). Here the Council will continue its discussion of scheduling priorities for the GNSO at ICANN58.
