REGISTRATION

On-site registration will be open daily from 0700 to 1900 beginning Saturday, 2 December, through Friday, 8 December.

The local host has recommended that, to ensure the highest level of security for the meeting participants:

1) Upon arriving at the meeting venue, all participants should first go to the registration desk to pick up badges and meeting materials.

2) All participants will be required to provide identification and have photographs taken for badges.

3) All participants will be required to wear these identification badges to enter the meeting area of the hotel.

4) There will be a barcode on the badge that will be scanned when you enter the meeting area. This will allow security to easily match the picture on the badge to your face.

ICANN appreciates the support of the community in providing financial sponsorship for ICANN meetings. This sponsorship is a vital part of enabling ICANN to provide quality programs for meeting attendees.

Remote Participation

In a further attempt to improve outreach, participation and transparency, ICANN has built a remote participation website for its São Paulo meeting, which commences December 2, at http://sp.icann.org/.

The site is being run as a pilot with a view to making it a permanent feature of ICANN meetings in the future.

ICANN has commissioned Kieren McCarthy, a well-known journalist and ICANN observer, to develop the site, following his involvement in a similar site (http://igf2006.info) for the Internet Governance Forum in Athens last month.

We hope this website will assist participation by those at the meeting as well as those on the wider Internet who can't be physically present.

Feedback on the usefulness of the site and any suggestions for improvement is welcome.

For more information please visit the online participation site at: http://sp.icann.org/.

INTERNET ACCESS

There will be an Internet Lounge. Wireless Internet connectivity (802.11b) will also be available in the main meeting and public areas.
