Dear all, Please find included the update on WS 2 from Mathieu Weill, the ccNSO appointed co-chair of the CCWG Accountability. Kind regards, Bart From: Mathieu Weill <mathieu.weill(a)afnic.fr> Date: Tuesday 17 January 2017 at 15:53 To: "katrina(a)nic.lv" <katrina(a)nic.lv> Cc: Bart Boswinkel <bart.boswinkel(a)icann.org>, Joke Braeken <joke.braeken(a)icann.org>, "jordan(a)internetnz.net.nz" <jordan(a)internetnz.net.nz>, 'Rosalia Morales' <rosalia.morales(a)nic.cr>, "garth.miller(a)cxda.org.cx" <garth.miller(a)cxda.org.cx>, 'Giovanni Seppia' <Giovanni.Seppia(a)eurid.eu> Subject: [Ext] CCWG-Accountability WS2 report Dear Katrina, As requested for the benefit of the ccNSO Council, please find below a report on the progress of the CCWG-Accountability WS2. Since Hyderabad, CCWG-Accountability WS2 activity has made progress on several key items. The Rules of Procedure of the Independent Review Process are up for public comment until January 25th. Given the importance of the IRP, will the ccNSO council submit a response ? Public input will also shortly be sought on : - the Draft Human Rights Framework of Interpretation. - a fact finding questionnaire related to the hotly debated issue of Jurisdiction. There are strong positions against and in favor or ICANN’s legal incorporation in the State of California, USA that has caused debate in the legal and political implications of the geographic location. Draft recommendations of 2 other subgroups (Transparency, Guidelines for good faith in the process of Board director removal) are under review by the plenary. CCWG-Accountability should be able to report on these topics, and engage the ccTLD community, by Copenhagen. The ccNSO contribution to the SO/AC accountability questionnaire has been received, and very much appreciated. Analysis of the various contributions is in progress, as the last submissions are being received. Overall this progress (summarized monthly in a Dashboard available here : https://community.icann.org/display/WEIA/WS2+Dashboard[community.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_di…>) remains behind schedule. It is becoming increasingly unlikely that the work be completed by ICANN 59 as initially contemplated. A discussion on a more realistic timeline is under way and an update will be provided in Copenhagen. Meanwhile, expenses remain largely below budget, with very little Legal advice being requested for the moment. Happy to respond to any question. -- ***************************** Mathieu WEILL AFNIC - directeur général Tél: +33 1 39 30 83 06 mathieu.weill(a)afnic.fr<mailto:mathieu.weill@afnic.fr> Twitter : @mathieuweill *****************************

One of the topics discussed was the need to appoint a Working Party, post ICANN58 (Copenhagen meeting), and the need to start organizing the activities leading up to the review now, which includes a briefing call with relevant ICANN staff and a conversation with the Organizational Effectiveness Committee of the ICANN Board. At the 12 Jan call, the Council agreed that ultimately the working party should include: 5 Councillors appointed by the ccNSO members; 1 (former) NomCom appointed Councillor; 5 members form the broader ccTLD community - to be included post Copenhagen. So at this stage, and as agreed: * The ccNSO councilors are requested to nominate one member on a regional basis (one per region) * The NomCom appointed councilors are requested to nominate a (former) NomCom appointed Councillor. To that end Jordi Iparraguirre, Celia Lerman Friedman and Hong Xue are included in this email. If you could work out among yourself per group who will participate/ has an interest that would be much appreciated. Please inform the ccNSO Secretariat (ccnsosecretariat(a)icann.org)<mailto:ccnsosecretariat@icann.org)> , no later than Thursday 19 January 2017, 23:59 UTC, who from your region and who of the (former) NomCom appointed Councillors will be participating. Next steps: Once the (former) Council members have put their names forward, the secretariat will organize a webinar between members and ICANN staff, in week 5 (between 30 January and 03 February), prior to the next Council call scheduled for 9 February. The purpose of this webinar is to explain the scope of the review, the process itself, the anticipated roles of the Council and Working Party and Independent Reviewer. We will launch a doodle poll to determine the preferred date of this webinar. In Copenhagen, the following activities will be organized: · Meeting with the OEC and relevant ICANN staff. For that meeting the ccNSO appointed ICANN Board members will be invited as well. · Session during the ccNSO Member Meeting, to engage the community. Current the session is scheduled at Tuesday 14 March, between 15:15 and 15:45 local time. Background: According to ICANN Bylaws section 4.4 (a) Section 4.4(a), calls for a periodic review “of the performance and operation of each Supporting Organization, each Supporting Organization Council, ….by an entity or entities independent of the organization under review.” As per the Bylaws, the goal of these reviews shall be “to determine: (i) whether that organization, council or committee has a continuing purpose in the ICANN structure, (ii) (if so, whether any change in structure or operations is desirable to improve its effectiveness and (iii) whether that organization, council or committee is accountable to its constituencies, stakeholder groups, organizations and other stakeholders”. These Organizational Review “shall be conducted no less frequently than every five years, based on feasibility as determined by the Board. Each five-year cycle will be computed from the moment of the reception by the Board of the final report of the relevant review Working Group.” The Organizational Effectiveness Committee of the Board (OEC), previously known as the Structural Improvements Committee (SIC), is engaged in the process from the Board side. It is the understanding that the 2nd ccNSO review will be kicked off at its earliest in July 2017.
