Election Notice: Board Seat 11
by Joke Braeken Nov. 7, 2022

Nov. 7, 2022

Dear All, This is to inform you about the ICANN Board seat 11 election, starting on Tuesday, 8 November 2022 (00:01 UTC) and closing on Tuesday, 29 November 2022 (23:59 UTC). Following the call for nominations, one candidate was nominated: Patricio Poblete. The nomination was seconded, and Patricio accepted the nomination. Patricio submitted his candidate statement<https://ccnso.icann.org/en/workinggroups/poblete-statement-16aug22-en.pdf> to the ccNSO. The due diligence or background check was concluded without identifying any issues or concerns. Patricio was interviewed and answered questions from the ccNSO members and broader ccTLD community at a Question-and-Answer session, held on 3 November 2022. The recording of the session is published here<https://community.icann.org/x/HBwFBQ>. Even though there is only one candidate, an election will still be held, as suggested in the past by members of the community and since then reflected in the relevant guideline<https://ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field-attached/ccnso-nomination…>. Election opening and closing Voting starts Tuesday, 8 November 2022 (00:01 UTC) and closes on Tuesday, 29 November 2022 (23:59 UTC), as per the timeline<https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/184995613/ITEM%203%20C%20a…> previously adopted by the ccNSO Council. Ballots A total of 173 voting ballots will be sent by Monday, 7 November by 23:00 UTC, from tally(a)icann.org to the e-mail address of the Emissaries, as listed in the ccNSO Members database. As per Section 10.4(e) of the June 2022 ICANN Bylaws, the Emissary is the Representative selected by the ccTLD Manager for the purpose of voting in the specific cases enumerated in Article 10 & Annex B of the ICANN Bylaws and some of the votings as per the ccNSO Internal Rules and Procedures. Each eligible Emissary will receive one (1) unique ballot. Currently 173 ccTLD Managers corresponding to 173 Territories are members of the ccNSO. The ballot will include two options: the name of the candidate and "None of the Above". The latter option was added after ccNSO members expressed the need for such an option. When selecting "None of the above", a ccTLD Manager believes that the candidate listed is not qualified to serve on the ICANN Board of Directors. Do you have questions or concerns regarding the email address of the Emissary for your Territory? Contact the Nomination Process Manager, Joke Braeken (joke.braeken(a)icann.org<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org>). If you are unable to locate the ballot, please consider checking your spam folder. Election Procedure Each Emissary can vote as many times as needed, but only the last vote submitted will be counted. When the results are displayed, the votes are only identified by the ballot ID, and not by name or email address. There is no quorum requirement for this voting. As per section 3.7 of the applicable guideline<https://ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field-attached/ccnso-nomination…>: “The Candidate(s) that receive(s the majority of the votes cast by the ccNSO members, shall be the Candidate(s) who is(are) elected to be nominated by the ccNSO Council. In the event the majority of the votes cast is “None of the Above” the Nomination Process shall be terminated and section 3.9 applies”. In the event of a tied vote, a run-off election vote or votes will be held as per the timeline<https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/184995613/ITEM%203%20C%20a…> adopted by the ccNSO Council. Next steps The election closes on Tuesday, 29 November 2022 (23:59 UTC). The Nomination Process Manager will announce the voting result on Wednesday, 30 November 2022 (latest by 23:59 UTC). The Nomination Process Manager will include the voting result as well as potential issues and events related to this specific Nomination Process in a Nomination Report. This report will be submitted to the ccNSO Council for adoption by the January 2023 Council meeting. With adoption of the Nomination report, the Nomination Process will close and the Empowered Community Administration (ECA) and ICANN's Secretary will be notified of the results of the Nomination Process accordingly.

This is a submission that is supported by both Council and ccNSO members. The Council tasked a small team ( Irina Danelia and Molehe Wesi) to draft a response. Included is a draft that has already bene reviewed by the ccNSO Council and the team is now seeking your comments and support. Main points of the draft submission: * The ccNSO supports the view of the review team that the CSC is effective and limited role should NOT be expanded * The ccNSO also supports the view that the CSC is best positioned to review regularly the IANA Naming Service Level Agreements. These SLAs should remain to be relevant, up-to date and adequate for the benefit of all ccTLDs and be used as a mechanism to avoid the emergence of issues, which could have been avoided if the SLAs were up-to-date reviewed. If you have any comments, concerns or do NOT support the proposed submission please let us know ( preferably using the list) by 15 November 2022, 23.59 UTC, On behalf of the Irina and Molehe, Bart Boswinkel, ccNSO secretariat

Decision: Request GRC to develop ccNSO internal procedure on role and expectations of ccNSO or ccNSO group with respect to implementation of ccPDP recommended policy
by Bart Boswinkel Nov. 4, 2022

Nov. 4, 2022

Dear all As you know the retirement policy was adopted by the Board at it meeting during ICANN75. ICANN org / IAAN staff will start the implementation. As you will recall for the last Council meeting, the Review Mechanism and IDN policy are expected to be completed next year andl be submitted to the Board. At some point they will need to be implemented as well. As you also know the ccNSO does not have any experience on how to organize its role , if any with respect to implementation of policy proposals. As discussed and given that in the near future various policies will need to be implemented, it is advised to develop a process/procedure on how to handle implementation of ccNSO policies from a ccNSO perspective. These internal procedure could be developed by either: * the ccNSO Council * the GRC * new working group Given its mandate, experience , working methods, and track record the GRC is probably best positioned to take on this work item, and preliminary discussions indicated that they are willing to do so. Decision required: The Council request the ccNSO Guideline Review Committee to develop and propose to the community and ccNSO Counci a ccNSO internal procedure or Guideline on role and expectations from the ccNSO and/or ccNSO group with respect to the implementation of a ccNSO recommended policy as adopted by the ICANN Board of Directors,. The GRC is requested to look at already existing procedures, developed by the GNSO (see Implementation review team Principles and Guidelines, https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/2016-12/i… ) and similar procedures and documentation from ICANN org. Please respond on list if you have any questions or concerns by Monday 7 November 2022.
