Review of .au - any good background papers out there?
by Narelle Clark Nov. 30, 2017

Nov. 30, 2017

Hi At-large members The Australian government has recently announced a review of the governance framework in place for .au, so I thought I'd reach out to you all to see if anyone has any good background papers on their ccTLD management? The review info can be seen here: https://www.communications.gov.au/have-your-say/review-australias-au-domain… And please feel free to send me any thoughts on these topics. "The terms of the Australian Government's endorsement of the .au Domain Administration (auDA) as the appropriate entity to administer Australia's top-level domain (.au) on behalf of Australian internet users were established in 2000. Since that time the digital landscape has changed significantly and it's important to ensure the management of the .au domain remains fit for purpose. The review will examine and make recommendations on: * the most appropriate framework for the management of the .au top level domain * how to ensure that Government and community expectations inform auDA's operation and decision-making, and * mitigation strategies to address future risks to the security and stability of .au." Thanks in advance Narelle -- Narelle Clark Deputy CEO Australian Communications Consumer Action Network (ACCAN) [Title: Thank you to everyone who attended ACCANect & made it such a valuable experience]<http://accan.org.au/> Join the discussion on Facebook<http://www.facebook.com/accanau>, follow on Twitter<http://www.twitter.com/accan_au> or receive our weekly WebNews<http://www.accan.org.au/news_items.php> | Visit accan.org.au<http://www.accan.org.au/>

by Joly MacFie Nov. 27, 2017

Nov. 27, 2017

As mentioned previously, we have 3 events this holiday weekend. This is the third. ICANN, in its wisdom, has decided to dispense with remote hubs (awkward, unreliable) for its meetings in favor of these regional 'Read Outs' (friendly, rewarding). Experts and newbies alike have the opportunity to dig into details of the latest ICANN policy issues, even if packing 6 days of numbers and names wonkery into 90 mins is a bit of a challenge. This time round we have joined with SIPA in order to bring some students to the table. SIPA will also be providing the refreshments, which are sure to be awesome. Our full line up for the weekend: Sat Nov 25 10am NYU: Internet History for CS Teachers Workshop (still time to RSVP, no livestream) - http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9632 Mon Nov 27 9am Civic Hall: Internet in Venezuela: past, present and future - http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9639 Mon Nov 27 5pm SIPA - http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9645 [image: livestream] <https://livestream.com/internetsociety/icann60nyc>On *Monday November 27 2017* at *5pm*, the* Internet Society New York Chapter <https://isoc-ny.org/>* (ISOC-NY) and the Columbia University *Tech and Policy Series <https://sipa.columbia.edu/ideas-lab/techpolicy>* will present the *ICANN 60 NYC Readout <https://events.columbia.edu/go/ICANN>* at the *School of International and Public Affairs <https://sipa.columbia.edu/>* in NYC.

Internet Society Board of Trustees Statement on updated Mission and 2018 Action Plan
by Joly MacFie Nov. 21, 2017

Nov. 21, 2017

The current ISOC BoT, under Chair Gonzalo Camarillo, is a strong group, unafraid to make bold moves. They are keeping up with the evolving Internet landscape, as evidenced in the new mission statement and action plan. joly posted: "At the conclusion of its meeting in Singapore on November 17-19, 2017, the Internet Society Board of Trustees released the following statement: The Internet Society Board of Trustees congratulates our staff, our Chapters, and all of our members for coming" New post on *ISOC-NY NOTICE BOARD* Internet Society Board of Trustees Statement on updated Mission and 2018 Action Plan <http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9627> At the conclusion of its meeting in *Singapore* on *November 17-19, 2017*, the *Internet Society Board of Trustees <https://www.internetsociety.org/board-of-trustees/>* released the following *statement <https://www.internetsociety.org/news/statements/2017/internet-society-board…>* : The Internet Society Board of Trustees congratulates our staff, our Chapters, and all of our members for coming together during the* Internet Society’s 25th anniversary year <https://www.internetsociety.org/25th/>* to celebrate the past and to shape the future. This has been an important year with many accomplishments, including the global *InterCommunity event* <https://www.internetsociety.org/intercommunity/2017/>held in September, which connected people from around the world and shone a spotlight on our work together. We believe this past year has set a foundation for the Internet Society to be an even more effective community and organisation going forward. To prepare for the future, the Board — in consultation with the wider Internet Society community — refreshed our time-honoured and tested vision and mission statements. We believe the robust dialogue about our shared aspirations and goals reflected the passion and commitment of our community, and resulted in a reinvigorated statement of our vision and mission, consistent with our original commitment to an Internet that is for everyone. The updated *Internet Society Mission Statement* <https://www.internetsociety.org/mission/> that we approved at our meeting is as follows: ------------------------------ *The Internet Society supports and promotes the development of the Internet as a global technical infrastructure, a resource to enrich people’s lives, and a force for good in society.* *Our work aligns with our goals for the Internet to be open, globally-connected, secure, and trustworthy. We seek collaboration with all who share these goals.* *Together, we focus on:* - *Building and supporting the communities that make the Internet work;* - *Advancing the development and application of Internet infrastructure, technologies, and open standards; and* - *Advocating for policy that is consistent with our view of the Internet.* ------------------------------ We also approved the organisation’s *2018 Action Plan <https://www.internetsociety.org/action-plan/2018/>*, which focuses people and resources on innovative ways to make a difference in: 1. *assuring Internet access for the hardest to reach places on the globe;* 2. *addressing security challenges emerging from the growing Internet of Things;* 3. *strengthening the global Internet’s routing system; and* 4. *promoting collaborative governance as tool to address a range important issues.* We also strongly agree with the 2018 Action Plan’s emphases on building a strengthened global Internet Society community and organisation, and on fostering key new initiatives that amplify the organisation’s ability to bring about change. Finally, and importantly, as we work to *#shapetomorrow* <http://bit.ly/shapetomorrow> and keep the Internet Society’s commitment to openness, transparency, and community-driven processes, we began exploring how to allocate the people, resources, and energies of the Internet Society for the future. We agreed to work through a strategy for long term sustainability and impact. The Internet Society’s *2017 Global Internet Report: Paths to Our Digital Future <https://future.internetsociety.org/>*, created through an extensive process of input from our community and beyond, will serve as a starting point for further dialogue to create a future-looking plan for addressing emerging issues of concern to our community. It has been an eventful year, and we look forward to building on it in the coming years. We want to applaud our committed staff and its leadership for the good work they do every day to ensure that the Internet is for everyone. *Direct URLs:* - *Statement: https://www.internetsociety.org/news/statements/2017/internet-society-board… <https://www.internetsociety.org/news/statements/2017/internet-society-board…>* - *Internet Society Mission: https://www.internetsociety.org/mission/ <https://www.internetsociety.org/mission/>* - *2018 Action Plan: https://www.internetsociety.org/action-plan/2018/ <https://www.internetsociety.org/action-plan/2018/>* Comment <http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9627#respond> See all comments <http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9627#comments> *Trouble clicking?* Copy and paste this URL into your browser: http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9627

Re: [At-Large] [ALAC-Internal] Hurricane Maria Domain Registration protectionProtocol
by Kan Kaili Nov. 17, 2017

Nov. 17, 2017

Hi, As Maureen pointed out, this indeed would be a good joint activity of ALAC and ccNSO. According to the response collected, ccNSO's response is likely to be positive. On the other hand, it is also true that ICANN's Board cannot order the ccTLDs to do something beyond their contracts. This reminds me of the multi-stakeholder structure of ISC (Internet Society of China). Whenever there is something that harms consumers' interest, e.g., spam, the following happens: - ISC's academic people will go to the media and have it heard. - In response, a few ISC's industry members will respond with a voluntary solution. - ISC's scholars will compare different solutions and present a preferred one to ISC. - A number of ISC's corporate members adopt to this solution and comeup with a joint announcement, e.g., "Anti-Spam Declaration", making it the industry standard. - ISC will oversee the implementation of this standard, and publicly award industry members for good behaviors. (Companies not complying will be at a great disadvantage.) - The ministry (MIIT) closely observes the whole process, provides support, and makes the solution into regulation when it is widely followed. As ICANN is also a multistakeholder organization, I wonder if we could take a similar approach with ALAC playing the role of ISC or its scholars representing consumers' interests. As I see it, ccNSO is likely to first adopt to this "distress relief" measure, while GNSO will then have to follow. Thank you!

In response to some suggestions I gave as to how we might contribution to a solution, Katrina raised the concern that "ICANN would not be able to tell ccTLDs what to do, it would have to be their own decision, but this does not mean that the ccNSO shouldn't or can't do anything" Katrina, in conjunction with Alejandra who is their Meeting Programme Coordinator, have suggested: - We organise a discussion at ccNSO Members meeting on Tuesday or Wednesday - “How to help ccTLDs, registrars and registrants in case of severely damaged infrastructure?” (or a similar title) - We will ask Pablo and perhaps somebody from .us or other ccTLDs to tell what it means for people to be cut from the outside world and what they did to help - We would like to invite you (or somebody else from ALAC) and maybe from some other SO/ACs – would be nice if you could share your concerns and your ideas/proposals - We will invite ROs. They are the driving force and the ones who can help the most. For example, during the LACTLD Technical workshop they try to establish redundancy among fellow ccTLDs, especially for small registries. - Discussions It sounds like a great plan for our ALAC/ccNSO session, and very relevant that the meeting will be held in Puerto Rico. Alejandra and I could work together to negotiate a suitable time for the ALAC to participate in the session. Be a change if we went to their meeting place. We could encourage input from other SO/ACs.

However I think it's worth a try and I think we could check the temperature before even starting a PDP by sending a statement in form of advice to all concerned part of the community. So the kind of advice I am referring to is to send in a teaser to see the reaction from the community. Such advice would note and commend the action taken by .pr and will then encourage/request the respective parties to implement such. ccNSO for instance can take such advice back home to their ccTLD policy process. For GNSO we can then suggest a PDP and hear their initial reaction. For the RIR we can by that advice hear their view about the applicability of this to numbers. So it's kind of a call to action advice.

To be clear, we cannot simply start a PDP. We can build a case clearly defining the issue and what a PDP should address, and request that staff create an Issue Report. Once that report is completed (having first issued a Preliminary Issue Report and then having it subjected to a Public Comment), the GNSO Council must then vote on whether or not to initiate a PDP. This is all layed out in detail in Annex A of the ICANN Bylaws - https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexA. The Request for an Issue Report and the processes which should precede it are laid out in the GNSO PDP Manual ( https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-01sep16-en.pdf ).

" As I understand, if the registrant does not renew in time, the registry/registrar would terminate this registration and make the domain available to other potential buyers. This would take some manpower (and cost) to implement. However, if nothing is done for a period of time, there should not be much, if any, occuring costs. If my above understanding is correct, this should indeed be a rather straightforward PDP. As a matter of fact, I suspect some of the registries/registrars would prefer to include this in their contracts with the registrant in order to be more competitive.
