15min	Review of our purpose and proposed activities including proposal to change name of the WG to "At-Large Ad Hoc ICANN Access and Diversity Working Group" (see **rational in notes) proposed by Unlicensed user (GA)	WG	Proposed WG name change rational The defined target population for our WG's activities is "a very diverse group! I'm concerned that our efforts would become very diluted. My preference is for a WG to concentrate on disability issues - that is big enough in itself and with the larger group, we will have lots of competing interests. However, if it has to be looking at such a large group then the name should be changed to reflect this ie Access and Diversity WG. Otherwise, there will be a case of mistaken identity." GA in email to CLO 07/02/14. High level review and assessment of 'state of play' specific needs analysis planning priorities and opportunities
