The ICANN Board selected locations to hold its meetings for March 2016 and October 2016 before heading out of the ICANN Buenos Airs meeting.
The March 2016 ICANN meeting (ICANN 55) with be held in Marrakech, Morocco which had already been selected for the site for the March 2016 ICANN Meeting after ICANN relocated the meeting scheduled for March 2014 to Singapore during the outbreak of Ebola.
The Marrakech meeting will be held March 5-10 2016
ICANN announced it was going to hold its October 2016 meeting (ICANN 57) in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The meeting will be held October 29 – November 4th, 2016
Puerto Rico should be a popular spot for ICANN folks to mix a mini vacation along with a meeting.
ICANN has not selected a location for its summer 2016 meeting (ICANN 56) which will be held in June and which is slated for Latin America.
Is Africa safe from Ebola? Or the news media found other sources of interest, such as Caitlyn Jenner, to focus on? Food for thought.
The out break seems to be under control and Morocco was not ground zero for Ebola
Rumors of Lima, Peru for ICANN 56 were circulating here in Buenos Aires all week. I’d put money on it.
