by Maureen Hilyard Sept. 29, 2021

Sept. 29, 2021

Dear All, With the Annual General Meeting approaching, I would like to inform you that with my re-appointment to the ALAC, I am also willing to continue in the role of ALAC Chair for one more year. This note is in line with the ALAC Rules of Procedure: *8. 2 - If the Chair is still a member of the ALAC in the year following his or her selection, is willing to continue in that role and subject to the eligibility rules in Paragraph **5, the Chair’s term is deemed to be automatically renewed for a second year without any explicit action of the ALAC.* I intend to work to complete the work I have committed myself to, as the Chair, and to spend the second year of my APRALO term "on the bench", assisting the transition of the new Chair into his/her role. Best regards, Maureen

by ICANN At-Large Staff Sept. 29, 2021

Sept. 29, 2021

Dear All, Maureen Hilyard, ALAC Chair, has requested that a call for nominations be issued for the other four members of the 2021-2022 ALAC Leadership Team (ALT) from the four remaining regions: - Africa - Europe - Latin America and Caribbean Islands - North America Maureen Hilyard, as ALAC Chair, will automatically take the APRALO ALT slot. The terms of the 2021-2022 ALT will begin at the end of the 2021 AGM until the end of the 2022 AGM. This selection is carried out in accordance with the ALAC Rules of Procedure Section 17.3 (RoPs - https://tinyurl.com/rhcnffkx ). Nominations may be made by any current ALAC Member. Nominees need not be an ALAC Member at the time of the nominations, but must have an expectation of being an ALAC Member after the completion of the upcoming virtual ICANN72 Meeting. Requirements for ALT members can be found in Section 6 of the ALAC RoPs. In short, ALT members are expected to attend all ALAC meetings, typically one ALT-Plus meeting per month, and be very responsive and thoughtful to e-mail requests and discussions. By mutual agreement, ALT members may take on additional roles. Vice-Chairs are expected to take on proportionally larger responsibilities. All ALT activities are carried out solely in English. Maureen has indicated that she expects to continue the practice of having two Vice-Chairs. Nominations may (but are not required to) specify whether the preference is for a Vice-Chair or a regular ALT position. The nomination period is now open and will close on Tuesday, 6 October 2021 at 23:59 UTC. Nominations need not be seconded. Nominations, other than self-nominations, must be accepted by Tuesday, 13 October 2021 at 23:59 UTC. Nominations and acceptances should be sent to the ALAC List [alac(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org<mailto:alac@atlarge-lists.icann.org>] Staff will forward all acceptances to [ alac-announce(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org<mailto:alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org> ] In accordance with ALAC RoP 16.3, following the close of the nominations period and the acceptance or rejection of all nominations, candidates from regions where the position is not contested will be declared to have won by acclamation. If there are multiple candidates from any region, the candidates, in conjunction with the ALAC, will be given the opportunity to resolve the situation. Failing that, a secret vote of the ALAC will decide the winner. Kind regards, At-Large Staff 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>

All Council meetings are open to observers. Highlights from recent Council discussions: Adoption of the Board Report ccPDP3 Retirement In July, the ccNSO members voted in support of the ccNSO Council recommendation to adopt the proposed policy on the retirement of ccTLDs. As a final, formal step, the ccNSO Council adopted the Board Report at its meeting on 16 September. The proposed policy has been submitted to the ICANN Board of Directors, as per Annex B, section 14 of the ICANN Bylaws <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> . This report includes: - the recommended policy for the retirement of the delegated Top Level Domains associated with the country codes assigned to countries and territories listed in the ISO 3166-1 standard - the council recommendation - the outcome of the member’s vote. Minimum requirements hybrid public ICANN meetings: Council perspective The ccNSO Council and other attendees focused on “ICANN Hybrid Meeting, what are the requirements from a Council perspective? during a brainstorming session. Previously, the MPC consulted representatives from the regional organisations on this topic. The results can be found at the MPC workspace <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> . ccNSO requested changes to the ICANN Bylaws The ccNSO formally submitted a request to the ICANN Board to change the Article 10 and Annex B of the ICANN Bylaws, to enable IDN ccTLD Managers to become members of the ccNSO. This change request <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> is the result of an extensive consultation with the ccNSO members. A potential role for the ccNSO with respect to DNS Abuse During a workshop in July, Councillors and others reflected on the potential role of the ccNSO with respect to the discussions on DNS Abuse. Council seeks input from the community during the upcoming ccNSO Members Meeting. Join us at ICANN72 for a discussion with ccTLD managers and representatives from other Supporting Organizations, Advisory Committees and ICANN org. The goal of the session is to understand what the ccNSO should do with respect to DNS abuse, in addition to what is already happening at the local and regional ccTLD level. Based on the guidance of the ccTLD community, the ccNSO Council will plan the ccNSO involvement in the discussions pertaining to DNS abuse and related activities that could assist ccTLDs. If a plan moves forward, it will be shared with the community during ICANN73 or an intersessional webinar. The ccNSO Council will reconvene at ICANN72, on Thursday, 28 October. country code Names Supporting Organisation https://ccnso.icann.org <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> | ccnsosecretariat(a)icann.org <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> [image: Facebook] <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> [image: Twitter] <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001d4Aa5UNO_LvVvjLiVntKgZIEO5eJuMeK91dWN5JA-k3…> ICANN | 12025 Waterfront Drive, Suite 300, Los Angeles, CA 90094-2536 Unsubscribe maureen.hilyard(a)gmail.com <https://visitor.constantcontact.com/do?p=un&m=00115LrDzKl3LoTB9FWCDiE2A%3D&…> Update Profile <https://visitor.constantcontact.com/do?p=oo&m=00115LrDzKl3LoTB9FWCDiE2A%3D&…> | About Constant Contact <http://www.constantcontact.com/legal/about-constant-contact> Sent by ccnsosecretariat(a)icann.org in collaboration with [image: Trusted Email from Constant Contact - Try it FREE today.] <http://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp?cc=nge&rmc=VF21_CPE&nav=80353da2-2…> Try email marketing for free today! <http://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp?cc=nge&rmc=VF21_CPE&nav=80353da2-2…>
