The board discussed the draft agenda for the IGOVUPDATE BOF at IETF 88. The board agreed to ask Fadi Chehade to present the proposed I* coalition to address Internet governance issues, noting that time will need to be allowed for discussion from the IETF community. Marc Blanchet and Andrew Sullivan will work offline to finalize the agenda.

2.2. Internet Governance Forum (IGF) 2013

Jari Arkko reported that leaders from many I* organizations are discussing forming a coalition to address Internet governance issues that do not have another home with a multistakeholder organization. The plans for the coalition are not firm yet, but the upcoming summit on Internet governance planned for Brazil in April 2014 is a likely topic of further discussion. Jari noted that the leaders of some I* organizations have suggested a joint statement endorsing the coalition.

2.3. Changes to ICANN Technical Liaison Group

Jonne Soininen reported that the ICANN Technical Liaison Group (TLG) is currently undergoing reorganization. The IETF has been asked to designate two individual technical experts who are familiar with the technical standards issues that are relevant to ICANN’s activities. Steve Crocker, Chair of the ICANN Board of Directors, sent an email to the IAB Chair asking to execute a Memorandum of Understanding regarding the appointment of those experts. The board agreed that Russ would reply to the email to start working out the details of the MOU.

2.4. RSSAC update
