DECISION NEEDED: Joint ccNSO-SSAC response to the ICANN Board
by Katrina Sataki Sept. 5, 2017

Sept. 5, 2017

Dear Councillors, On our last call Hiro informed us that the EPSRP working party concluded its work and the SSAC was in the process to decide whether to adopt the paper prepared by the working party. Hiro also indicated that he would submit the final paper to chair once adopted by SSAC. I am pleased to inform you that Hiro has formally sent me the paper after he and I were informed that SSAC has adopted the document (included) "as is". So now it is up to us. According to our internal rules (https://ccnso.icann.org/about/guidelines-council-practices-09feb17-en.pdf) and as agreed at our last call on 24 August we will take an email decision. I therefore propose the following resolution: Proposed Resolution Background In its letter dated 24 April 2017, the ICANN Board of Directors noted divergent views of the SSAC and ccNSO with respect to the following topics: Interpretation of RFC 6912; On similarity findings, and On mitigation measures. The Board suggested the ccNSO and SSAC collaboratively arrive at conclusions on these 3 issues and requested a joint briefing to further the Board's understanding of the topic. The ccNSO and SSAC agreed to set up a working party with two members from each group tasked to develop a common position on the 3 topics, if feasible. Both the ccNSO Council and SSAC would approve the document according to their own rules and procedures and then would send and present it to the Board. The Chair of the ccNSO and ccNSO members on the working party were informed that SSAC has adopted the Joint ccNSO SSAC Response to ICANN Board on EPSRP as proposed by the working party. Decision. The ccNSO Council suports the observations and recommendations of the working party and adopts the Joint ccNSO-SSAC Response to ICANN Board on EPSRP as proposed by the working party. The ccNSO Council particularly welcomes the proposed changes to section 5.6.3 of the current version of the Fast Track Implementation Plan (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/idn-cctld-implementation-plan-0 5nov13-en.pdf ). The ccNSO Council request its Chair to inform the Chair of SSAC accordingly, and jointly submit the Joint Response. The ccNSO Council thanks and congratulates the members of the working party: Suzanne Woolf (SSAC), Jeff Bedser (SSAC), Hiro Hotta (ccNSO), Wafa Dahmani (ccNSO), for their work on the paper and for finding a common position. According to our rules this resolution will be considered adopted if none of us raises objections by 8 September 2017 23.59 UTC or, in case at least one of us raises an objection by a majority vote. So, please let your voice be heard on this topic, preferably as soon as possible but no later than 8 September 23.59 UTC. Thank you! Kindest regards, ]{atrina

ICANN Accountability Indicators page
by Katrina Sataki Aug. 29, 2017

Aug. 29, 2017

Dear Colleagues, Yesterday ICANN launched the beta version of the new Accountability Indicators page: https://www.icann.org/accountability-indicators The aim of this page is to serve as a central place where the community can keep track on progress made against ICANN’s goals and objectives in the strategic and operating plans. It is another mechanism to hold the organisation accountable.  ICANN Org will update these indicators monthly. Initially, the page is in English but, in the coming months, it will be available in the six U.N. languages. This is a continuous, evolutionary process and both Org and the Board welcome your feedback at any time. If it is easier for you, please feel free to send your feedback to the Secretariat, our SOP working group or to me. We will aggregate all your comments and suggestions and make sure they are delivered to the right people. Thank you! Kind regards, ]{atrina
