Dear Eberhard, >It violates every concept of ballot or voting that I have ever come accross Could you please be more specific? In my country and in many other countries that I know, it is absolutely normal to strike all the candidates off the list if a voter does not want them. It is a part of a democratic process. What are you afraid of? That the members decide that they do not want to see a certain candidate (candidates) on the Board? The only way to avoid this is to nominate strong candidates that have support from the membership. Isn't it the main objective? >I am not sure of the consequences this might have, including violating the bylaws If we look at the Bylaws, the Bylaws say “The ccNSO Council shall nominate individuals to fill Seats 11 and 12 on the Board by written ballot or by action at a meeting; any such nomination must have affirmative votes of a majority of all the members of the ccNSO Council then in office.” So, according to the Bylaws, it is the Council who is supposed to do the selection. However, as you may remember, we decided to do it differently. During one of the GRC updates proposed changes to the guideline were presented and discussed. The proposal was to follow the procedure we have had for years, i.e. members nominate and vote for the best candidates (now it also includes the right NOT to support any of the nominees if a member feels the ccNSO Council should not nominate them) then the ccNSO Council formally nominates the candidate nominated and selected by the members. Does our internal procedure violates the Bylaws? I do not think so. It empowers ccNSO members and, again, helps us to select the best candidates.

This announcement will also be published here: https://ccnso.icann.org/en/news/announcements Bylaw Article 10 – Section 10.4 (g)<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article10> states: "(g) The ccNSO Council members selected by the ccNSO members from each Geographic Region (see Section 10.3(a)(i)) shall be selected through nomination, and if necessary, election, by the ccNSO members within that Geographic Region. At least 90 days before the end of the regular term of any ccNSO-member-selected member of the ccNSO Council, or upon the occurrence of a vacancy in the seat of such a ccNSO Council member, the ccNSO Council shall establish a nomination and election schedule, which shall be sent to all ccNSO members within the Geographic Region and posted on the Website."

Otherwise, an election shall be held for that geographic region, to select the ccNSO Councillors from among the valid candidates.

Hello Eberhard, The "none of the above"-option is included in the ccNSO internal guideline, "ccNSO Nominations process ICANN Board Seats 11 and 12". The most recent version of the guideline was adopted by the ccNSO Council during its meeting on 22 August 2019 (Council wiki 22 Aug meeting: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=100534575) Please find the guideline here: https://ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field-attached/ccnso-nomination… See section 3.7: […] • The ballot will include the name(s) of the candidate(s) and “None of the above”, “None of the above” will mean that a ccTLD Manager believes the candidate(s) listed is / are not qualified to serve on the ICANN Board of Directors.

The ccNSO Members Meeting will take place on Tuesday, 5 and Wednesday, 6 November 2019. ccTLD managers interested in presenting at the ccTLD News Session are kindly invited to contact Joke Braeken (joke.braeken(a)icann.org)<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org)>, no later than Wednesday, 25 September 2019 (23:59 UTC). The ccNSO Meeting Programme Working Group invites you to share your best practices, project solutions, implementations and case studies by presenting at the ccTLD news session, covering for instance recent developments, ccTLD activities and ccTLD management related topics, both from an operational, marketing or legal point of view. Candidate presenters are invited to send the following information to Joke Braeken (joke.braeken(a)icann.org)<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org)>, at their earliest convenience - no later than Wednesday, 25 September 2019 (23:59 UTC). = = = = = * Exact title of your presentation * First name of the presenter * Last name of the presenter * ccTLD of the presenter * Short summary of your presentation (few sentences) Please note: * Has your presentation been shown at another industry event? If so, kindly specify where. In order to avoid unnecessary overlap with other meetings, you are kindly encouraged to adopt the presentation to a global audience. * No interpretation services will be provided during the ccNSO Members meeting, therefore please take into consideration that presentations are to be held in English. * On https://ccnso.icann.org/en/workinggroups/mpwg.htm<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__ccnso.icann.org_en_wor…> you will be able to find some tips & tricks for presenters at ccNSO meetings, and how to make a good presentation even more engaging. = = = = = Next steps: Each proposal for a presentation is reviewed and evaluated by the ccNSO Meeting Programme Committee (MPC). Since a number of volunteers already stepped forward with a proposal to give a presentation, including deferred presentations from ICANN65, the MPC cannot always guarantee a speaking slot for all volunteers. A short description of the scheduled presentations will be published online, prior to the meeting. The MPC expects to confirm the final selection of presenters after its next planning meeting on 2 October. The ccNSO Meeting Programme Committee looks forward to your feedback. Thank you!

Accepting nominations and due diligence verifications After closure of the nomination period, the Nomination Manager will ascertain whether the nominee(s) formally accept their nomination(s). The deadline to accept nominations is Thu, 10 October 2019 (23:59 UTC).

Also, a record of who has nominated and seconded the candidate(s) [forum.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__forum.icann.org_lists_c…> is publicly available. By acceptance of the nomination, a nominee warrants, is aware of, and consents to: * The Country of Citizenship or Domicile included in the nomination form; * Not to hold a position as an official of a national government or a multinational entity (section 7.4 (a) of the ICANN Bylaws [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>; * Section 7.4 (b) of the ICANN Bylaws [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>; * Section 7.4 (d) of the ICANN Bylaws [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>; * Fully cooperate to undergo a due diligence screening by an external provider, which includes providing necessary consent to ICANN to transmit personal data to the due diligence provider. Candidates need to be aware that they will be approached by the external due diligence provider to sign a consent form before the actual due diligence will begin. The scope of this background check is described in: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/proposed-uniform-board-integrit… [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…>. In the event a candidate does not provide consent or rescinds the consent to undergo the due diligence process, the Council will be informed, and the candidacy of that person will be ended. After completion of the due diligence process, the Chair of the ccNSO Council will be informed of the outcome and inform the Council (with the exception of a potential candidate who is still a Councillor), i.e., only whether concerns have surfaced, which warrant further consideration and decisions. Candidate Statements The Nomination Manager will ask candidate(s) to provide a written candidate statement. A Q&A session will be held at the upcoming ccNSO Members Meeting at ICANN66 in Montréal, Canada. The Q&A session gives the ccNSO members and broader ccTLD community an opportunity to interact with the candidates. Consult here<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=111391889> the agenda of the ICANN66 ccNSO Members Meeting. In preparation of the Q&A session, the written candidate statements will be posted on the ccNSO website. Elections Bylaw Article 10 – Section 10.3 (i) [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…> states: "(i) The ccNSO Council shall nominate individuals to fill Seats 11 and 12 on the Board by written ballot or by action at a meeting; any such nomination must have affirmative votes of a majority of all the members of the ccNSO Council then in office. Notification of the ccNSO Council's nominations shall be given by the ccNSO Council Chair in writing to the EC Administration, with a copy to the Secretary, and the EC shall promptly act on it as provided in Section 7.25." Even if there is only one candidate that accepted nomination for ICANN Board seat number 11, an election will be held, to allow the ccNSO members to either cast their vote for the candidate, or to select the option “none of the above”. The ccNSO Council and ccNSO members have agreed that the ccNSO members shall propose and elect candidates for the two ICANN Board seats allocated to the ccNSO, and that the winner of said election - i.e. the candidate that receives the majority of the votes cast - shall in turn be nominated to the ICANN Board seat by a majority vote of the ccNSO Council. The timeline for the elections is posted in the links-section below: further instructions will be provided by the Nomination Manager closer to the start of the elections, in January 2020.

Report was shared with mailing list last Friday. 2 types of verifications: 1. Match with IANA database (.lc, .vi and .vn still pending. 7 ccTLDs were terminated, 3 of them re-applied.) 2. General accuracy check. 49 ccTLDs requested changes. See details in annex of the report Total number of ccNSO members, as of yesterday 18 Sept: 170. (.vu as youngest member) Look into the 3 pending ccTLDs closer to the start of the elections. 5. Update ccNSO related ICANN Bylaw Change Repository Katrina reached out to the chairs, to seek support. ALAC supports the change, as included in the report by Segun. At least one more decisional participant sought to support the change. Community Forum scheduled for sunday morning, tentatively. ALAC and 2 other DP’s to formally acknowledge their agreement, prior to Montreal. In that case the Community Forum can take place remotely, and does not need to take place in Montreal. Katrina mentioned that according to the bylaws, the community forum is not mandatory. Even if there is sufficient support from a sufficient number of participants, we still should have a community forum? Forum is optional. What is the process to request a Community Forum? Bylaws: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD Action item: * we need to prepare a formal notification as the ccNSO (one of the DP’s), that we support. * Send bylaws section to Jordan, where it says that the Community Forum is optional. * Clarify what the process is to request a Community Forum 6. Update CSC membership (members and liaisons) approval process New member to CSC. Alejandra stepped forward and was selected. Meanwhile a member from the RySG stepped down. They hope to select a candidate by the end of this month. Both Councils need to approve the full slate of the CSC, which includes members and liaisons. 7. Update ccNSO Selection Boards seat 11 & Council Election procedures Call for nominations: 11 September, 2 October Candidate statements at ICANN66 Nominated & seconded: Patricio Poblete and Calvin Browne. Elections post due diligence verifications in January 8. Update IANA Function Review Federico Neves appointed as co-chair. Objections? None Abstentions? None Resolution is passed 9. Emoji SG Final report Report contains some recommendations. Format of the wild-carding study group. The final report is submitted to ccNSO Council for adoption and support of the recommendations. Alejandra moved, Pablo seconded. Report approved, no abstentions, no objections 10. IDN ccTLD policy development and related efforts: next steps Hopefully the Board will respond favourably to the letter that we sent. Bart is presenting an updated slide deck of the roadmap. Including e.g. the open issues, the preliminary findings of the GAP analysis. What is the Council expected to do next? * Action item for the Board: respond to the letter. Depending on the response, ccPDP will be closed and the discussion on the inclusion of IDNccTLDs in ccNSO can start. By Montreal, the letter from the Board will probably be sent. To be verified with ICANN org. Assuming the council receives a response: * Separate the current proposals in the ccPDP out of the Board report. Request the Board to implement them, and change article 10 accordingly. In parallel, have a discussion with the ccTLDs on the proposed changes to article 10. Depending on the discussions in Montreal * Launch PDP4 at the Montreal meeting. Includes requesting an issue report, appoint an issue manager, and come up with a tentative timeline. Advise is to include that the issue report should be limited to the issues identified in the GAP analysis report. The report should propose on how these issues should be addressed. Call for volunteers, to assist the issue manager in drafting the issue report. A face-to-face meeting is scheduled for Thursday 7 November at ICANN66 (10:30-12:00). 11. ccNSO Organisational Review: Next Steps Merid.org has submitted its final report. MSSI has prepared some templates. We should look at the recommendations, and make an analysis and implementation plan of those that are in the scope of the ccNSO. The website is for instance not entirely within the scope of the ccNSO. Members of the Review Working Party are invited to look at the template with the recommendations, and to come up with an assessment and implementation plan, for approval by the ccNSO Council. Stephen volunteered to take the lead of this topic as part of the Council Workshop in Montreal. Working party will most likely not finish the work by Montreal. Assessment to see what council can do, and see what helps the RWP move forward. 12. PDP 3 Part 1 Retirement – Update Draft policy is available.

For information Update ccNSO Selection Boards seat 11 & Council Election procedures Informational Update IANA Function Review Appointment Frederico Neves (.br) ccNSO appointed co-chair of the IANA Function Review team For decision Draft Resolution The ccNSO Council was informed that Frederico Neves ( .br) was nominated as co-chair of the first IANA Function review team (IFRT) by chair’s email of 5 September 2019. The cNSO Council confirms appointment of Frederico as ccNSO appointed co-chair to the IFRT, and request the secretariat to inform relevant staff of ICANN Org and the ccNSO appointed IFRT members of the appointment Emoji SG Final report For adoption Background: The Emoji Study Group intends to submit its final report by the Council meeting of 19 September 2019 for adoption. It is suggested to either take an email vote or decision at the September Council meeting. For you information the report will be shared before the upcoming meeting for informational purposes. The draft Observations and Recommendations are: Observations: ● Potential for confusability with emoji is significant but is currently contained given the small number of registries which accept the registration of domain names which include emoji. ● Some in the emoji domain name industry have proposed Whitelisting as a potential solution to address confusability Recommendations 1.Dialogue Following the Study Group’s efforts to liaise with as many relevant parties as feasible (including ccTLDs) one of the findings is that a full and frank dialogue with ccTLDs accepting emojis as second level domains should be continued and fostered. It should be ensured that both potential harms of and the reasons for accepting emojis should be well understood. This dialogue, however, will only succeed if all relevant parties participate. The ccNSO Council is requested to share the Study Group’s final report with the ccTLD community, and in particular with those ccTLDs that have been identified by the Study Group as accepting emojis in second level domains. 2. Define and communicate consistently what is and what is not an Emoji. To understand the breadth of use and issues associated with the use of emoji in domain names the Study Group looked at the definitions of emoji which are currently available. One of the observations made was that In trying to arrive at an authoritative and all-encompassing definition of what is an emoji one may, at least for the moment, have to settle on referring to the latest version of emoji as documented by the Unicode Consortium (see above). However the Study Group is aware that this definition is unsatisfactory for many reasons. It is therefore recommended that the issue of definition of what is and what is not an emoji be further explored by the broader community. 3. Identification of cc’s and others accepting Emojis in second level domains. As mentioned in the report, the Study Group used a variety of ad-hoc methods to identify ccTLDs that include emojis in second level domains. However the Study Group is well aware that these methods were not systematically developed, nor applied consistently across namespaces. One of the underlying issues is definitional in nature (see the previous point and related findings of the Study Group). To understand the full scope of the issues, a systematic and consistent research approach is advised to provide a sound basis for well-informed and evidence based discussions and recommendations. The Study Group therefore recommends that the ccNSO Council advises ICANN that, prior to taking further steps, ICANN and the broader community consider clearly delineating what it considers emoji and develop systemic methods to identify (cc)TLDs who include emoji (however defined) as second level domains. Draft Resolution The ccNSO Council adopts the Final report of the Emoji Study Group and supports the recommendations contained in it. The Council requests its chair to inform the ICANN Board of Directors accordingly in response to ICANN Board resolutions 2017.11.02.10 and 2017.11.02.11. The membership of the ESG is thanked wholeheartedly for its work.

In reviewing the proposal, the ICANN Board is asking the ICANN community to consider the following questions for input to the ICANN Board: 1. What are your thoughts on the proposed framework approach? Do you have any suggestions for how it could be improved? 2. What are your thoughts on the proposed approach for decisions in the ICANN ecosystem to be accompanied by a consideration of their impact on the global public interest (as well as an explanation regarding what is meant by the GPI in the specific case)? 3. How do you see this working for the Supporting Organization (SO), Advisory Committee (AC), constituency, group, review team, or cross-community working group (CCWG) to which you are contributing? The global public interest is central to many of ICANN’s primary governance documents, and the ICANN Board hopes to play a role in facilitating a bottom-up, community-driven process to develop a framework as a toolkit for the ICANN community to consider the global public interest. These considerations would not change the process by which decisions are made but could instead serve as tools for the community to reinforce the commitment to the public interest and to demonstrate how specific recommendations, advice, and public comments are in the global public interest. This includes the ICANN community guiding the ICANN Board about the public interest determination the latter must make in its decisions. To learn more about the framework, please read the <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0014631p6ECz1koeg6ajMSzZrFT7DO05069BKNDJvhNpKDU…> discussion paper.
