Dear all, ccNSO Review Activity at ICANN63 As part of their data collection, team leads of the independent examiner appointed to conduct the ccNSO2 organisational review will be conducting in-person interviews at ICANN63 in Barcelona, Spain, with members of the ccNSO, informed community members, and members of the ICANN organization and Board. *** If you are traveling to ICANN63 and would like to be considered for a one-on-one interview, please send an email to jennifer.bryce(a)icann.org<mailto:jennifer.bryce@icann.org>. *** Members of the Meridian Institute team will also provide an update to the community on the progress of the review during day 1 of the ccNSO Members Meeting at ICANN63 (Tuesday, 23 October 2018 | 11:30-12:00). Consult the agenda here: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=90768548 Background ICANN has appointed Meridian Institute <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.merid.org_&d=DwMFaQ…> to conduct the second independent review of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__ccnso.icann.org_en&d=D…> ). This review is mandated by ICANN's Bylaws <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…> and is part of its ongoing commitment to accountability and transparency. Meridian Institute will begin work on the review immediately, and is expected to submit its final report in July 2019. Selection of the Independent Examiner The selection of an independent examiner followed ICANN's rigorous procurement process. The process was led by the ICANN organization and validated by the Board's Organizational Effectiveness Committee (OEC [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>). The OEC is responsible for overseeing ICANN's Organizational Reviews process. The selection criteria for the independent examiner was developed in collaboration with the ccNSO Review Working Party<https://community.icann.org/x/jga8B>. The criteria included: understanding of the assignment, comprehension of the ccNSO's role within the ICANN structure, and the independence of the proposed team.

Re: [ccnso-council] IANA Naming Function Review (IFR)

Dear Trang, I am pleased to inform you that in accordance with section 18.7 (a) of the ICANN Bylaws, the ccNSO Council has appointed the following two persons as the “Two representatives appointed by the ccNSO from its ccTLD registry operator representatives”: Frederico Neves, .br (Brazil), LAC region Peter Koch, .de (Germany), EU region With respect to third candidate the ccNSO Council is required to appoint according section 18.7 (b) of the ICANN Bylaws, we have to inform you that no non-ccNSO ccTLD representative who is associated with a ccTLD registry operator that is not a representative of the ccNSO has applied for membership despite the extensive outreach efforts: On 20 July, initial information about the coming call for volunteers sent out to all email lists under auspices of the ccNSO, including the ccTLD world list to which all ccTLD managers are subscribed >From 10 August to 24 August, the call for volunteers was announced to all email lists; >From 27 August to 10 September, second call for volunteers was announced to all email lists; As suggested in the Bylaws, the ccNSO Council reached out to the Regional ccTLD organisations who informed their members on their respective email lists and encouraged their members to apply; Announcements on the ccNSO Website; Reminders to the email lists – 14 August, 21 August, 7 September. As no candidate from the non-ccNSO members group of ccTLD managers has volunteered, the ccNSO Council appointed a third person on an interim basis to ensure the voice of the ccTLD community at large is properly represented on the IFRT. This person will step down and be replaced on the IFRT if a candidate from a non-ccNSO ccTLD manager with the required skills and experience as defined in the original call for volunteers steps forward and is appointed by the ccNSO Council. The third ccTLD representative on the IFRT who is appointed on an interim basis by the ccNSO Council is the following person: Helen MacDonald, .ca (Canada), NA Region. If you have any questions pertaining this appointment, please do not hesitate to contact me.

IFRT update
by Katrina Sataki Oct. 10, 2018

Oct. 10, 2018

Dear Councillors, A short update on the developments with respect to the IFR team. As you remember, according to the temporary guideline, the Chair and Vice-chairs were asked to come up with the composition of ccNSO Council appointed members to the IFR team, taking into account Council’s vote as much as possible. We have discussed the situation as follows: We have no volunteers from non-members of the ccNSO, therefore, we cannot appoint a non-member ccTLD. We went to a great length to inform and encourage non-member ccTLDs to participate. However, with no results. IANA Functions review is very important for the ccTLD community, therefore, ccTLDs have to be strongly represented on the IFR team. If we appoint only 2 members to this team, ccTLD community will be underrepresented. Considering all of the above, we decided: To appoint three members to the IFT team, all ccNSO members, top-three candidates from the Council vote (luckily, they all are from different geographic regions). The third member will step down if a non-member ccTLD representative with the required skill-set and experience steps forward. Kind regards, ]{atrina
