GRC Subgroup on Rules of the ccNSO - ICANN72 Governance session follow-up
by Kimberly Carlson Nov. 12, 2021

Nov. 12, 2021

***SENT ON BEHALF OF THE GRC SUBGROUP ON RULES OF THE CCNSO*** Dear members of the ccNSO, Following the ICANN72 Governance session [72.schedule.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/72.schedule.icann.org/meetings/zQgMuxTwR…> on updating the Rules of the ccNSO, the Rules Subgroup has considered the input and polling results and we now note our plans to work toward closure on this project early in the new year. First, we are in the process of making slight changes to the draft of the new rules as indicated by the Governance session. We expect to close the document by Friday Nov. 19th and will send it to this list then. There will be no more columns showing prior rules and rationale for changes – the new document will just the draft of the revised rules. In our view, the new draft will be final except for one section – that being the section on the quorum rule for electronic voting by members (Section 2.2). We will indicate the option which we recommend in the document. Second, we are planning another ccNSO community webinar in the December 7th or 8th timeframe. The purpose of the webinar will be to review/explain the document and get feedback, especially the quorum issue. Third, we will welcome final feedback to this new document and will ask you to please send that input on list by December 21st. Following these steps, we plan to finalize the document to submit to Council with a report describing our work and findings. We expect that will very quickly lead to the announcement and holding of a members’ vote on the document. Remember, no change to the Rules can be made that does not meet the change requirements in Section 8 of the current ccNSO Rules [ccnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/ccnso.icann.org/en/about/rules.htm__;!!P…>. The Rules Subgroup will assist Council with outreach for such a vote – we expect to hold two explanatory webinars in February in order to facilitate attendance across all time zones. We are hopeful that new Rules may be adopted and in place prior to ICANN73. Thank you and best regards, On behalf of the GRC SG, David McAuley (Chair) Irina Danelia Stephen Deerhake Chris Disspain Atsushi Endo Ann-Cathrin Marcussen Alejandra Reynoso Katrina Sataki (observer) Sean Copeland (observer)

[PROPOSAL] for our next council call on 18 November 12:00 UTC
by Alejandra Reynoso Nov. 11, 2021

Nov. 11, 2021

Dear All I hope you had the best ICANN72 experience possible :) A lot of work and effort were invested in the preparation and execution of the ICANN72 sessions which naturally left us all with the need to rest from ICANN related matters and recharge. Therefore, next week the ccNSO will keep its activities at a minimum and resume normal speed on Monday 8 November. Our next call is scheduled for Thursday 18 November at 12:00 UTC. In just 3 weeks. Considering two effective weeks of work before our call, my proposal is to change the format of our session from a formal council meeting to a council workshop, to discuss the following topics: 1. Next steps on the role of the ccNSO & DNS Abuse. 1. Attached is the presentation shown yesterday at our council call, with more details on the statements polled. 2. Keep in mind that we need volunteers for the drafting of the proposed plan of action to be presented to the ccTLD community for consultation. 3. So far there is Nick and myself. A couple more councillors would be appreciated. 4. Please use the mailing list to volunteer. 2. Next steps on Hybrid Meetings. 1. We have the report from our mini-workshop: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rgDxd9uvL3P3kh2VepPe6HtwyuCsknhNT8A2KHf… 2. The input from the recent plenary on the topic: https://72.schedule.icann.org/meetings/chf3RhWa2oRBLvxQt 3. What do we want from MPC and OISC looking at hybrid meetings? Note that we are pending on requesting MPC to review the Meetings Guideline and suggest changes, taking into consideration virtual and hybrid meetings. Do you agree with the proposal? Comments and suggestions are welcome. Have a great weekend! :) Best regards, Alejandra -- [image: Photograph] *Alejandra Reynoso*Investigación & Desarrollo | Dominios .gt *P:* +502 23688565 *E:* alejandra.reynoso(a)cctld.gt 18 Ave. 11-95 Zona 15, V.H.

Ongoing elections for the position of ccNSO council member for the Asia-Pacific region
by Joke Braeken Nov. 10, 2021

Nov. 10, 2021

Dear Councilors, I have contacted you regarding the elections for the position of ccNSO council member for the Asia-Pacific region. Voting was supposed to start on Wednesday, 10 November (00:01 UTC), but due to a delay in the sending of the ballots, voting started a few hours later, approximately around 6 UTC on Wednesday, 10 November 2021. Sincere apologies for the delay with the ballots, due to a mistake from my end. Apologies have also been sent to both candidates. To compensate for the delayed start time, the deadline to vote will be Thursday, 25 November (23:59 UTC), instead of Wednesday, 24 November (23:59 UTC). Voting results will become public on Friday, 26 November 2021 (latest by 23:59 UTC). In case there is a need for a second voting round, or in case there is a tied vote, the timeline has been adjusted as follows: Start run-off elections, if any: Monday, 29 November 2021 (00:01 UTC), with ballots being sent on Friday, 26 November. Close run-off elections, if any: Monday, 6 December 2021 (23:59 UTC) Here is the original election timeline as approved by Council in September: https://ccnso.icann.org/en/workinggroups/timeline-nomination-election-2022-… The Election Report, which includes the results of the election, will be sent latest 8 December 2021 to the ccNSO Council for its consideration and adoption. This date remains unchanged. All announcements related to the Council elections will become available here: https://ccnso.icann.org/en/about/elections/council.htm If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Thank you. Best regards, Joke Braeken ccNSO Policy Advisor joke.braeken(a)icann.org
