Helpful analysis documents by Angie Graves
by Steve DelBianco July 11, 2013

July 11, 2013

Last week, BC member Angie Graves asked me if there were any policy coordination projects she could help with. I suggested 2 documents that would help BC members going into the Durban meeting. Angie came thru with the two attachments: 1. Analysis of the public comments on GAC Safeguard Advice. (first attachment) Here, Angie went thru all 130 of the public comments on GAC Safeguard advice, and categorized them (applicant, contract party, registrant, user). This should help us distinguish GAC support/opposition coming from "customers" of ICANN versus contract parties and TLD applicants. Angie welcomes further insights on correcting the categorizations. 2. Analysis of the BC's RAA requests, versus what the Board approved in the final 2013 RAA. (second attachment) As we anticipated, few of our requests were granted. Thank you, Angie, for your contributions to the BC's policy work. --Steve -- Steve DelBianco Executive Director NetChoice http://www.NetChoice.org and http://blog.netchoice.org +1.202.420.7482

I would like to echo our Chair in appreciation of the work you undertook, Angie. So many if us in the BC are caught up in our daily workload that it is hard to find time to participate in the ICANN activities that seem to flow like a waterfall these days. But engage we must if the ICANN model is to prevail over the ITU and others that would have it another way. So many thanks to you for stepping up. Looking forward to seeing you in Durban.

Expert Volunteers Needed to Define Requirements for Internationalized Registration Data and Corresponding Data Model for gTLD Registries
by Benedetta Rossi July 10, 2013

July 10, 2013

Dear BC Members, Please find below an ICANN announcement for a call for volunteers to define requirements for internationalized registration data and corresponding data model for gTLD registries. -- Kind Regards, Benedetta Rossi BC Secretariat bc-secretariat(a)icann.org <https://community.icann.org/display/gnsobc/Home> https://community.icann.org/display/gnsobc/Home www.bizconst.org <http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-08jul13-en.htm> http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-08jul13-en.htm Expert Volunteers Needed to Define Requirements for Internationalized Registration Data and Corresponding Data Model for gTLD Registries 8 July 2013 As part of the process to implement WHOIS review team recommendations related to Internationalized Domain Name registration data requirements, ICANN seeks volunteers who are community representatives with expertise in linguistics, IDNA, policy and registry/registrar operations to participate in a working group to determine appropriate Internationalized Domain Name registration data requirements and data model for Registration Data Directory Services (aka WHOIS services). Interested experts are invited to submit their résumé and an expression of interest statement demonstrating how they meet the qualifications for one or more of the expertise areas specified. The <http://www.icann.org/en/about/aoc-review/whois/call-for-experts-ird-08jul13 -en.pdf> call for volunteers document [PDF, 143 KB] that describes the type of expertise needed, as well as the process for selecting members. Applications should be sent to <mailto:whois-rt-12@icann.org> whois-rt-12(a)icann.org no later than 16 August 2013. The working group is expected to: * Determine the requirements for internationalized registration data * Produce a data model for the IRD that matches the requirement In doing so the working group is expected to build on previous community efforts related to this issue, most notably: * <http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/ird/final-report-ird-wg-07may12-en.pdf> SSAC-GNSO Final Report on Internationalized Registration Data [PDF, 641 KB] * <http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents/sac-054-en.pdf> SAC 054: SSAC Report on Domain Name Registration Data Model [PDF, 575 KB] The result of the WG product will go through a public comment process to ensure broad input is received. It will form the basis for further policy development and/or contractual framework for generic Top-level domains, as well as ideally becoming a best practice for country code top-level domains. Successful completion of the project depends on having team members with the right skills. Therefore ICANN, through its Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and through its contacts with the international Internet community, is soliciting the participation of community volunteers. The formation of the working group is part of the process to implement the internationalized registration data recommendations of the <http://www.icann.org/en/about/aoc-review/whois/final-report-11may12-en.pdf> ICANN WHOIS Policy Review Team Final Report [PDF, 1.44 MB] as <http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/documents/resolutions-08nov12-en.htm> adopted by the ICANN Board

Will fowad when I get into office. There ae three issues related to SS, not just root scaling. SSAC has a short time slot. It may need more attention within BC.

Hi Jeff, It is my understanding that we are scheduled to meet with the SSAC when we meet as the Commercial Stakeholder Group (CSG). Marilyn - can you please send those CSG agendas? Additionally - there is a SSR session on Wednesday and SSAC session on Thursday. Hope this helps. Best, Elisa From: owner-bc-gnso(a)icann.org [mailto:owner-bc-gnso@icann.org] On Behalf Of BRUEGGEMAN, JEFF Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2013 7:04 AM To: Phil Corwin; bc-gnso(a)icann.org Subject: [bc-gnso] RE: The Technical Impact of New gTLDs: Are We Pushing on Regardless? Agreed. The SSR Review Team also raised concerns that the initial SSAC root scaling study was narrowly focused, and we recommended that ICANN conduct a thorough SSR review prior to launching the new gTLD program. Are there sessions scheduled on this topic in Durban?
