Dear Friends, My apologies as I will not be able to participate in tomorrow's monthly council meeting. My beloved great-grandmother passed away today and as you will understand I have some responsibilities and familiar commitments due to this. If necessary, I agree in advance to remain involved as a mentor in the fellowship programme. Thank you for your understanding and I hope you have a happy holiday season with your loved ones. Best, Jenifer. ************************** El 19 dic. 2023 9:09 a. m., Kimberly Carlson via Ccnso-council <ccnso-council(a)icann.org> escribió: Dear Council, As a reminder, the December ccNSO Council teleconference (201) is scheduled for 21 December at 21:00 UTC.

Fwd: Monthly report
by Alejandra Reynoso Barral Dec. 19, 2023

Dec. 19, 2023

Dear Councillors Please find below an update from Katrina on Board consideration of the proposed policy with respect to the ccPDP3 - Review Mechanisms. Best regards, Alejandra ******************************************* Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching. Sing like nobody's listening. And live like it's Heaven on Earth. ******************************************* ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Katrina Sataki <katrina(a)nic.lv> Date: Tue, Dec 19, 2023 at 5:12 PM Subject: Monthly report To: Alejandra Reynoso Barral <alejandra.reynoso(a)gmail.com> Dear Alejandra, As I have a conflicting call, I will not be able to join the Council call upcoming Thursday. Please let me share a written monthly update on behalf of the Board Caucus ccPDP3-RM. As always, Bart will be able to provide additional details if necessary. As I reported before, during the public comments period the GAC submitted their comments on the ccNSO policy regarding review mechanism. However, as GAC input in response to public comment period is not considered GAC Consensus Advice, it was critical for the Caucus to understand if there would be any additional formal GAC Consensus Advice. As you may already know, on 8 December, the Board received a letter from the chair of the GAC in which he stated that subsequent to the filing of comments, GAC members have not identified any additional issues of policy regarding recommendations developed by the ccNSO. Further, Caucus support staff prepared and shared with the Caucus members a Framework for feasibility assessment which was discussed and approved. According to the approved framework, ICANN Legal started an in-depth analysis of sections 2-6 of the Board report. Initial review surfaced a number of questions, which will be first discussed with subject matter experts to seek clarification. If at one point additional input is needed from the ccNSO, we will inform you promptly. As we are approaching a six months milestone, next report will be an official Board Caucus community update which will be circulated by 31 January 2024. As always, please feel free to share this summary with the Council. Kind regards ]{atrina
