Fwd: ICANN57 - High Interest Topics - Next Steps
by Alan Greenberg Sept. 22, 2016

Sept. 22, 2016

See the following message. An extension to Friday has been requested and I hope will be honoured. See my following very hastily prepared comments. Let me know how they match yours. Alan 1. DNS and Content Regulation 1 This session does not seem to allow for significant audience participation and I beleive some of the premises are false. 2. gTLD Marketplace Health index 2 Unclear if the session is on the marketplace or the index and I think more prep is needed prior to this being a high interest session. 3. How to do outreach within each SO/AC 3 Could be of interest if only to demonstrate the differences between groups and what outreach means to each. 4. ICANN Contribution to the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda 1 Although I personally would find this interesting, I am not sure it is really within the ICANN mandate nor would be of general interest. 5. ICANN Support for Multistakeholder Initiatives for Advancing Online Child Protection 3 Although the format is not detailed, this topic is very much in line with ALAC concerns about the lack of controls on new gTLDs. 6. Internet Governance - Public Session 3 I would support this. Fragmantation is an issue that will be of increasing interest, particularly if the IANA transition does not go through. 7. Mitigation of Abuse in gTLDs 3 Again, no indication of session format, but presuming an opportunity for audience participation I think that this would be of interest to us. 8. Operational session on KPIs, regarding ICANN's reach, spending, and engagement strategies ? I don't have a dgood feeling for this one. 9. Public Interest 3 Definitely 10. The role of the No-Commercial stakeholders within ICANN. A dialogue to foster understanding and co-operation within ICANN. 1 This description talks about non-commercial stakeholders within ICANN, but seems to focus purely within the GNSO. If indeed it was wider than that, I would support it. 11. Transparency on legal advice given to ICANN [to preserve its principles and openness 3 I would support this, although I am dubious on the outcomes. 12. Underserved Regions in ICANN 3 Again no info on session format, but the topic could be of interest. 13. Universal Consumer Awareness about the largest ever expansion of the Internet 3 I agreed tat the ALAC would partiicpate in this session, but explicitly said we would not likely support a Ry request for ICANN to embark on a program to support growth in use of new gTLDs. 14. Update on WHOIS-Related Initiatives 3 There is so much going on that such an update would be of use. 15. What ICANN does not do and why! 3 I like the idea! >From: David Olive <david.olive(a)icann.org> >To: Katrina Sataki <katrina(a)nic.lv>, "thomas.schneider(a)bakom.admin.ch" > <thomas.schneider(a)bakom.admin.ch>, > "paf(a)netnod.se" <paf(a)netnod.se>, "James M. > Bladel" <jbladel(a)godaddy.com>, "louie(a)louie.net" <louie(a)louie.net>, > "tsinha(a)umd.edu" <tsinha(a)umd.edu>, > "bverd(a)verisign.com" <bverd(a)verisign.com>, > "alan.greenberg(a)mcgill.ca" <alan.greenberg(a)mcgill.ca>, > "tonyarholmes(a)btinternet.com" <tonyarholmes(a)btinternet.com>, > "gregshatanipc(a)gmail.com" > <gregshatanipc(a)gmail.com>, "hilaliaziz(a)yahoo.fr" > <hilaliaziz(a)yahoo.fr>, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl(a)gih.com>, > "tapani.tarvainen(a)effi.org" <tapani.tarvainen(a)effi.org>, > "'mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com'" <mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com>, Paul Diaz > <pdiaz(a)pir.org>, "sb(a)inapp.com" <sb(a)inapp.com>, "cwilson(a)21cf.com" > <cwilson(a)21cf.com>, Klaus Stoll > <klaus.stoll(a)gkpfoundation.org>, Rafik Dammak > <rafik.dammak(a)gmail.com>, > "gbunton(a)tucows.com" <gbunton(a)tucows.com>, "Oscar > Robles" <oscar(a)lacnic.net>, "hcarrascob(a)gmail.com" <hcarrascob(a)gmail.com> >CC: Nick Tomasso <nick.tomasso(a)icann.org>, "Tanzanica S.

Board Resolutions from 15 September 2016
by Rinalia Abdul Rahim Sept. 21, 2016

Sept. 21, 2016

Dear ALAC, The Board had a special meeting on 17 September 2016 and made a decision that tasked the CEO to undertake an independent review of staff interaction with the Community Priority Evaluation (CPE) provider - the Economist Intelligence Unit - in the CPE process. I have pasted the full resolution below. Best regards, Rinalia 17 September Board Meeting: https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/ resolutions-2016-09-17-en Approved Board Resolutions | Special Meeting of the ICANN Board 17 Sep 2016 1. *Main Agenda: <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2016-09-17-en#1>* 1. *President and CEO Review of New gTLD Community Priority Evaluation Report Procedures <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2016-09-17-en#1.a>* - *Rationale for Resolution 2016.09.17.01 <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2016-09-17-en#1.…>* 1. Main Agenda: 1. President and CEO Review of New gTLDCommunity Priority Evaluation Report Procedures Whereas, the Board has discussed various aspects of the Community Priority Evaluation (CPE) process, including some issues that were identified in the Final Declaration from the Independent Review Process (IRP) proceeding initiated by Dot Registry LLC. Whereas, the Board would like to have some additional information related to how ICANN staff members interact with the CPE provider, and in particular with respect to the CPE provider's CPE reports. Resolved (2016.09.17.01), the Board hereby directs the President and CEO, or his designee(s), to undertake an independent review of the process by which ICANN staff interacted with the CPE provider, both generally and specifically with respect to the CPE reports issued by the CPE Provider. *Rationale for Resolution 2016.09.17.01* Community Priority Evaluation (CPE) is a method to resolve string contention for New gTLDapplications. It occurs if a community application is both in contention and elects to pursue CPE. The evaluation is an independent analysis conducted by a panel from the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). As part of its process, the CPE provider reviews and scores a community applicant that has elected CPE against the following four criteria: Community Establishment; Nexus between Proposed String and Community; Registration Policies, and Community Endorsement. An application must score at least 14 points to prevail in a community priority evaluation. At various points in the implementation of the New gTLDProgram, the Board (and the Board New gTLD Program Committee) have discussed various aspects of CPE. Recently, the Board has discussed some issues with the CPE process, including certain issues that were identified in the Final Declaration from the Independent Review Process (IRP) proceeding initiated by Dot Registry LLC. The Board is taking action at this time to direct the President and CEO, or his designee(s), to undertake a review of the process by which ICANN staff interacts with the CPE provider in issuing its CPE reports. The review should include an overall evaluation of staff's interaction with the CPE provider, as well as any interaction staff may have with respect to the CPE provider preparing its CPE reports. The Board's action to initiate this review is intended to have a positive impact on the community as it will help to provide greater transparency into the CPE evaluation process. Additionally, by undertaking additional due diligence in the administration of the CPE process, the Board intends this review to help gather additional facts and information that may be helpful in addressing uncertainty about staff interaction with the CPE provider. As part of its deliberations, the Board reviewed various materials, including, but not limited to, the following materials and documents: - New gTLD Applicant Guidebook <https://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/agb/guidebook-full-04jun12-en.pdf> [PDF, 5.9 MB] - Final Community Priority Evaluation Guidelines <https://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/cpe/guidelines-16aug13-en.pdf>[PDF, 803 KB] - Community Priority Evaluation (CPE) Panel Process Document <https://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/cpe/panel-process-07aug14-en.pdf> [PDF, 314 KB] - Dot Registry v. ICANNIndependent Review Process Final Declaration <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/dot-registry-v-icann-2014-09-25-en> There may be some minor fiscal impact depending on the method of review that the President and CEO chooses to undertake, but none that would be outside of the current budget for administering the New gTLD Program. Initiating a review of the process by which ICANN staff interacts with the CPE provider is not anticipated to have any impact on the security, stability or resiliency of the DNS. This is an Organizational Administrative Function that does not require public comment. Published on 20 September 2016

Motion to amend Rules of Procedure
by Alan Greenberg Sept. 10, 2016

Sept. 10, 2016

There have been no comments to the version of the ALAC Rules of Procedure Revision 3 (RoP Rev 3) as originally proposed on 18 August 2016 (http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/alac/2016-August/009600.html) and revised on 31 August 2016 (http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/alac/2016-August/009656.html) The motion below was made in the 18 August 2016 e-mail and seconded by Holly Raiche (http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/alac/2016-August/009602.html) Attached are both a redline and clean version of the RoP as well as a log describing the changes. Note that Sections 23 and 24 only become operative if and when the IANA Transition occurs. This motion requires a super-majority (2/3) vote of the ALAC. I request that Staff initiate a vote of the ALAC to begin no later than Monday, 12 September 2016 and to end at 23:59 UTC on 19 September 2016. ===================================== Whereas the At-Large Advisory Committee is currently operating under Rules of Procedure (RoP) approved on 20 June 2016; Whereas a number of changes to these (RoP) have been recommended to correct errors, clarify specific rules, enhance transparency and implement the ICANN Empowered Community; Therefore; The ALAC adopts the attached revisions to the ALAC Rules of Procedure.
