Re: [ccnso-council] Council meeting

April 17, 2014

Dear All, Just to be clear, further to my last note, the comments that I included was what is being considered only. APTLD has NOT established any position in this space. There has been some discussion on the APTLD list. That is ALL. So, I apologies to all if my note was confusing. Don Don Hollander General Manager Gm(a)aptld.org From: Byron Holland <byron.holland(a)cira.ca> Date: Thursday, 17 April 2014 1:14 pm To: "ccnso-council@icann. org" <ccnso-council(a)icann.org> Subject: [ccnso-council] Council meeting Dear Colleagues, Unfortunately i will not be able to attend the Council meeting tomorrow, however you will be in good hands with Katrina. As part of the agenda, Becky will be providing an overview of some of the IG issues related to the oversight of IANA transition. As part of the process that ICANN has recently proposed, the initial comment period on the process will end May 8th. This is a very short period, too short in fact to go through a regular ccNSO process to achieve full consensus on input into the comment period. As such, I believe it would be in our best interest to have a Council comment, which should be helpful to the rest of the ccNSO. Becky will walk you through the attached "strawman" statement that builds on the statement we made in Singapore as well as a number of previous public statements the ccNSO has made. I realize that this is arriving at a late stage, however given the short time frames and fluid, concurrent nature of many of the discussions, I hope you will find this to be productive. All the best, Byron

Thank you Byron. I would like to make the following suggestions: Where Becky say ³... selected by the ccNSO² this is replaced by ³ selected by the ccTLD community² This may be slightly more effortful but it will be more inclusive, and the ccNSO will already have a nominee in th AC/SO group. APTLD is also considering the following: Under Principles, we believe Multi-Lingual should be as much an explicit principle as the others. Under Principles, we don¹t understand what Do No Harm¹ is doing there. Perhaps someone on the council could explain. Under Mechanism, we would like an explicit inclusion of engagement with existing community gatherings Under Mechanism, we would like an explicit inclusion of traditional and new media. We also believe that the scoping document doesn¹t include the critical decisions around the allocation of the contract for the provision of the IANA functions, including its allocation and operational criteria. We also don¹t understand why ISOC is one of the directly affected parties (particularly when TLD operators are not).
