We encourage broad participation in our bottom-up consensus-development process -- you can participate either in person, or (for the large meetings) via the Internet.

ICANN thanks the sponsors of these meetings: <http://www.icann.org/mdr2000/sponsors.htm>.
Everyone should be aware that the number of pre-registrations for this meeting has been quite large relative to previous ICANN meetings (over 900 so far). Though our main meeting room is as large as previous ICANN meetings, it may be that some meeting rooms are crowded. We are doing our best to make overflow space available, if needed. A little patience and understanding will be asked of everyone. We hope to see you next week (in person or online)!
