There's a great resource for ICANN followers and meeting participants alike: the ICANNWiki.
An independent initiative, over the years it has become the default stop for information on who's who in the community, what's going on and where it's happening. For each major event, like an ICANN meeting (the wiki also covers other events like domain conferences), a guide is put up to help people find their way around.
At INDOM, we're great fans of the wiki. As it relies on sponsorship and volunteers, we decided to put our money where our mouth was and help with the Paris meeting pages.
So we've written and provided content for the wiki's Paris meeting guide pages. Check them out and if there's any other bits of useful info you'd like to see up there and we haven't thought of, please let us know!
