Monday, 25 November 2019 ICANN Community Leadership Digest The ICANN org Policy Development Support team publishes this twice-weekly digest to help ICANN community leaders track requests and updates. Table of Contents Information Sharing - REMINDER: NextGen@ICANN Community Consultation - REMINDER: ICANN Fellowship Program Mentors ICANN67 Planning - REMINDER: ICANN67 Publication Support - REMINDER: CROP Deadline for ICANN67 Public Comment - CLOSING TODAY: Proposed IANA SLAs for ccTLD Creation and Transfer - CLOSING SOON: Draft PTI and IANA FY20 Operating Plan and Budgets - EXTENDED: Registration Directory Service (WHOIS2) Review Team Final Report - Implementation Plan for the GNSO Consensus Policy Relating to the Protection of Certain Red Cross Names - Proposal for Future Root Zone KSK Rollovers Information Sharing REMINDER: NextGen@ICANN Community Consultation Executive: Sally Costerton, Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING The NextGen@ICANN program is currently undergoing a community consultation <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001scabV3LOFVNtQI-ZbrgpiN1fCNmWQvjUPWb2P9tozrxh…>. One request from the preliminary feedback received to-date was for ICANN org to explore the feasibility of having community volunteer representatives from Supporting Organizations (SOs), Advisory Committees (ACs), Stakeholder Groups (SGs), and Constituencies (Cs) to nominate individuals for the following two roles: 1. NextGen Selection Committee members 2. NextGen mentors For the Selection Committee, a time commitment of approximately 20 hours over three weeks is required (for each application round). Selection Committee members will typically serve for two years (or six application rounds). Mentors are expected to devote approximately 24 hours to pre-ICANN Public Meeting preparation with their mentees, to offer advice, networking support, and regular check-ins on-site, and to complete evaluations following the ICANN Public Meeting. Based on previous estimates, mentors spend about two hours per week during the six-week preparation period in advance of the meeting and about two hours per day providing on-site support at the ICANN Public Meeting. Mentors will typically serve for one year (or three meetings). Is your group interested in nominating individuals for either of these roles? By Monday, 16 December 2019, please take the following poll <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001scabV3LOFVNtQI-ZbrgpiN1fCNmWQvjUPWb2P9tozrxh…> to help ICANN org can gauge the level of community interest. The findings of this poll will inform the proposed NextGen program approach that will be published for Public Comment. Note: You will not be asked to submit the names of potential volunteers for roles at this time. REMINDER: ICANN Fellowship Program Mentors From: Sally Costerton, Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING ICANN's Supporting Organizations (SOs) and Advisory Committees (ACs) are invited to nominate <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001scabV3LOFVNtQI-ZbrgpiN1fCNmWQvjUPWb2P9tozrxh…> one individual each (total of seven) to serve as a mentor in the ICANN Fellowship Program. Mentors will serve a term that includes three consecutive ICANN Public Meetings, beginning with ICANN68. They will provide extensive pre-meeting preparation and on-site support for their assigned fellows, as well as complete a survey after each meeting. Mentors are expected to follow Fellowship Program guidelines to help ensure consistency in capacity development opportunities for fellows. They also play an important role to help fellows actively participate in ICANN's work. Mentors will receive travel funding support. Mentors cannot serve on the Fellowship Program Selection Committee <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001scabV3LOFVNtQI-ZbrgpiN1fCNmWQvjUPWb2P9tozrxh…> at the same time they are serving as mentors.

ICANN Boat Seat 15 Selection
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 15, 2019

Nov. 15, 2019

Dear All, This message is being sent on behalf of Yrjö Länsipuro, the Chair of the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC) and Alan Greenberg, Chair of the Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC). From BCEC Chair: The BCEC received only one Expression of Interest for position of Board Member selected by At-Large (ICANN Board Seat 15) for the three year term beginning at the conclusion of ICANN69 scheduled to be held in Hamburg in October 2020. The BCEC confirmed that the applicant is an excellent candidate, and in accordance with its responsibilities under ALAC Rules of Procedure (RoP), places the name of León Sánchez on the BCEC Slate of Candidates for Seat 15. From the BMSPC Chair: The ALAC RoP allow RALOs to petition to add additional candidates to the BCEC Slate of Candidates. In this case, there were no additional EoIs submitted, so no petition process is possible. The ALAC RoP 19.11.2 reads: "If there is only one candidate on the Final Candidate List, that candidate will be acclaimed the winner." Accordingly it is my pleasure to announce that León Felipe Sánchez Ambía has been selected as the occupant of ICANN Board Seat 15 for a second three year term beginning at the conclusion of ICANN69 scheduled to be held in Hamburg in October 2020. Kind regards, ICANN Policy Staff in support of the At-Large Community Website: atlarge.icann.org<https://atlarge.icann.org/> Facebook: facebook.com/icann<https://www.facebook.com/icannatlarge>atlarge<https://www.facebook.com/icannatlarge> Twitter: @<https://twitter.com/ICANNAtLarge>ICANNAtLarge<https://twitter.com/ICANNAtLarge>

Selection Committee members will typically serve for two years (or six application rounds). Mentors are expected to devote approximately 24 hours to pre-ICANN Public Meeting preparation with their mentees, to offer advice, networking support, and regular check-ins on-site, and to complete evaluations following the ICANN Public Meeting. Based on previous estimates, mentors spend about two hours per week during the six-week preparation period in advance of the meeting and about two hours per day providing on-site support at the ICANN Public Meeting. Mentors will typically serve for one year (or three meetings). Is your group interested in nominating individuals for either of these roles? By Monday, 16 December 2019, please take the following poll <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001HB8ldZpieERrjiTzkmcDPKhtsck_cZxMYAv6eTZviW5P…> to help ICANN org can gauge the level of community interest. The findings of this poll will inform the proposed NextGen program approach that will be published for Public Comment. Note: You will not be asked to submit the names of potential volunteers for roles at this time.

Table of Contents Information Sharing - DUE FRIDAY: 2020 Leadership Program - NEW: CSC Findings on PTI Performance for October 2019 - REMINDER: ICANN Preparations for IGF 2019: Information for the Community and Requests for Input - REMINDER: NextGen@ICANN Community Consultation Public Comment - Registration Directory Service (WHOIS2) Review Team Final Report - Proposed IANA SLAs for ccTLD Creation and Transfer - Draft PTI and IANA FY20 Operating Plan and Budgets - Implementation Plan for the GNSO Consensus Policy Relating to the Protection of Certain Red Cross Names - Proposal for Future Root Zone KSK Rollovers Information Sharing DUE FRIDAY: 2020 Leadership Program From: Sally Costerton, Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING >From Wednesday, 2 October to Friday, 15 November 2019, ICANN has issued a call for nominations for the 2020 Leadership Program, scheduled for 5-6 March in Cancún, Mexico, just prior to ICANN67. The Leadership Program helps current and incoming leaders better understand the complexities of ICANN, while also helping to develop the facilitation skills of participants. Understanding ICANN as an organization, the topics discussed within ICANN, and the interaction within other stakeholder groups can be challenging for incoming leaders, but sometimes also for experienced leaders. ICANN org and the community are making considerable efforts to help incoming leaders have a good start to their terms and to provide current leaders the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and facilitation skills. Opportunities for Leadership Program participants include the following: - Meet leaders from the other Supporting Organizations/Advisory Committees and get an insight of the functionality and issues in other groups - Discuss current ICANN topics in an in-depth manner - Deepen the understanding of key ICANN processes - Develop facilitation and leadership skills, focused personal effectiveness to run meetings and foster processes Interested individuals need to be endorsed by their Supporting Organization, Advisory Committee, or stakeholder group.

The Leadership Program does not provide financial support for travel to Cancún but does cover accommodations and offer a stipend for the days a participant is involved in the program. NEW: CSC Findings on PTI Performance for October 2019 From: Lars-Johan Liman, CSC Chair FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING As chair of the Customer Standing Committee (CSC), I am pleased to inform you that the CSC has concluded that Public Technical Identifier (PTI)’s overall performance over October 2019 <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…> was “Satisfactory” - PTI met 98.4 % of the service level agreements over the month of October 2019. The missed service level agreement was satisfactorily explained and not an indication of a performance issue. The related PTI report to the CSC, listing the individual service level metrics along with their actual and historical performance, can be found here <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…> . I am also very pleased to provide you an update on the two outstanding Service Level Agreement (SLA) changes: 1. In accordance with the SLA change procedure: the CSC had requested the ccNSO and GNSO Councils to approve to the introduction of a new SLA, IDN tables processing times, and we have been informed they did accordingly. 2. The second SLA listed in the CSC Findings Report, the ccTLD Creation/Transfer - Validation and Reviews: SLA amendments, was approved by the CSC, and PTI has opened a Public Comment proceeding <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…> to seek your input and comments. Both SLA changes are explained in more detail in the October 2019 CSC Findings Report. The CSC met in person and with different stakeholder groups in Montréal, Canada during ICANN66. The presentations at our meeting and what we presented to the different groups are available here <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…>. I am honored to inform you that in Montréal the CSC selected me as its new chair and Brett Carr, one of the ccNSO appointed members, as vice chair - both for the duration of this term (until March 2020). I would also like to officially recognize and thank the PTI staff for going beyond expectations by providing their October report to us already on 3 November, so that we could address it at our in-person meeting in Montréal the day after. This undoubtedly came at the cost of weekend work time for some staff, and on behalf of the entire CSC I would like to forward our warm appreciation for this. BACKGROUND Generally, the CSC regular meeting is scheduled on or around the 15th every month, and the CSC findings report on the PTI performance is sent out shortly after that meeting. If you would like to be informed of upcoming meetings or receive CSC reports directly, you may want to subscribe to our announce list <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…>. Any comments on our reporting to you is welcome. The CSC became effective 1 October 2016. Background information on the committee along with transcripts of our meetings and other useful information can be found here <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014SVIzSPJrkyQrmTKJhWYR1hhhjI6T9W7vReX8oTkl0wT…> .

Message to Board on Strategic Plan
by ABDULKARIM AYOPO OLOYEDE Nov. 6, 2019

Nov. 6, 2019

Hi all, Here is the general overview of my proposed message to the Board on the strategic plan as requested by Tijani during the meeting. This is in addition to Holly’s question to the board on the same topic. The strategic plan of ICANN is quite rich, and We are glad it now includes issues under Geopolitics. We think it's a fantastic document: however, we hope more should be done in terms of having a strategy to engage members as appropriate. For example, ICANN is now a sector member of the ITU because of the need to have a seat at the table where ICANN issues are being discussed within the context and remit of the ITU. Some Government representatives to ITU meetings come to ICANN meetings in representing a wide range of interest and there is a need to have a strategy to engage these people within the geopolitical theme of the strategy document as nothing can be archive as not a lot can be achieved by a sector member without the buy-in on member state. Therefore, our view is that there should be a clear strategy to engage these people to harmonize views to promote the goal of ICANN and this should be more effective rather than an Ad-hoc discussion at the corridor. -- *Dr. Abdulkarim A.Oloyede*. *B.

Re: [ALAC] ALS /individual Criteria and Expectations
by DANIEL NANGHAKA Nov. 3, 2019

Nov. 3, 2019

Dear All, In reference to the discussion and presentation that was being conducted by the Alan, I put forward an observation, Apologies in case I misheard the response from where one mentioned that when he's given an opportunity we shall be able to have many more Individual contributing and being active. I strongly believe that member volunteering should not be based on the decision of an individual, once one has the passion and believe they can effectively contribute to the various processes then they should be willing. The interaction between the ALS and their respective communities has got to be reviewed. Secondly, there are some ALSes whose work is not directly related to ICANN objectives. All these bring ideas on how the ALSes need to be reviewed. Let's not look at numbers without impact. Let's look at the impact and effective contribution from the wider community. Furthermore, I suggest that we have a discussion on the mailing list and also an online calls/meetings be scheduled where we discuss and deliberate on this issue. We should not wait for face 2 face meetings to discuss these critical issues. Despite the time constraints during ICANN66, thinking aloud we could have an unconference session to discuss this issue. The Bye-Laws are clear, work was done and I believe this is the time to do the review of the process involved in engaging the both ALS /individual Criteria and Expectations. Daniel K. Nanghaka ᐧ

NextGen Selection Committee members 2. NextGen mentors For the Selection Committee, a time commitment of approximately 20 hours over three weeks is required (for each application round). Selection Committee members will typically serve for two years (or six application rounds). Mentors are expected to devote approximately 24 hours to pre-ICANN Public Meeting preparation with their mentees, to offer advice, networking support, and regular check-ins on-site, and to complete evaluations following the ICANN Public Meeting. Based on previous estimates, mentors spend about two hours per week during the six-week preparation period in advance of the meeting and about two hours per day providing on-site support at the ICANN Public Meeting. Mentors will typically serve for one year (or three meetings). Is your group interested in nominating individuals for either of these roles? By Monday, 16 December 2019, please take the following poll <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001xlcHhlYzW5rq65YCei_6a98x8AZsNfKuTG3Q0WK0VXo-…> to help ICANN org can gauge the level of community interest. The findings of this poll will inform the proposed NextGen program approach that will be published for Public Comment. Note: You will not be asked to submit the names of potential volunteers for roles at this time.
