FW: Additional material for Tuesday ccNSO Council Meeting
by Gabriella Schittek March 11, 2013

March 11, 2013

Dear Councillors, Forwarded on behalf of Ron Sherwood. ----------------- Dear Councilors: Please find below a copy of an ALAC comment on the Google letter to Fadi Chehadi and a link to that letter in .PDF format. Plus a link to the TechCrunch article concerning the issue. Best regards, Ron Sherwood ccNSO/ALAC Liaison ----------begin copy---------- Google proposes to open its "closed generics" from: Evan Leibovitchvia<http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&ctx=mail&answer=1311182>atlarge-lists.icann.org<http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/> 6:52 AM (1 hour ago) [https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif] [https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif] [https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/images/cleardot.gif] to:ICANN Google has promised, in a letter to Fadi, that if it gets custody of certain strings considered to be closed generics, it will make subdomains under them publicly available. It probably will not, however, use the traditional indirect channel of going through registrars. This is exactly the kind of hybrid approach anticipated by the ALAC statement on the issue, and why I believed it prudent not to reject the concept out of hand. ----------end copy------ http://m.techcrunch.com/2013/03/09/if-it-gets-them-google-may-open-search-a… [.PDF file here<http://www.scribd.com/doc/129456330/Google-s-Letter-to-ICANN>]

Of particular importance are the opinions of the members of ICANN’s Support Organizations and Advisory Committees as they represent a unique perspective on ICANN. To that end, we have partnered with Echo Research, an independent, global research organization, to survey our stakeholders to gather perceptions of ICANN including their knowledge of the organization and their opinions surrounding several aspects of its reputation and communications. The research is in the form of an online survey that will take approximately 10 of your time to complete. Be assured that the survey is hosted on Echo’s secure server and conducted under the Code of Conduct of the Council of American Survey Research Organizations (CASRO), which ensures your confidentiality Please click on the link below to participate in this important research effort: http://www.youropinionsmatter.com/E0083/ We know time is scarce these days, but we would appreciate if it you would consider participating and sharing your feedback.
