Congratulations to Pablo. * First part is open to all, including observers. Second part is a closed part of the meeting, chaired by Byron. Katrina will not attend the closed part of the meeting. Byron: unusual development regarding board seat 12 elections. Not faced yet before, required discussion. Open discussion about what has transpired. No observers. Chatham house rules: means whatever the discussion is, that substance is available for all of us going forward. Attribution, or indicating who said what, is not permitted. Not by individual, not by organisation. Candid and open discussion, but respect chatham house rules regarding attribution of the discussion. 2. Minutes & Action Items a. Minutes are recording of the ICANN68 meeting. b. Action items and To-do’s Any questions? None 3. Intermeeting decisions (since 24 June 2020) · Extension period to acceptance nomination as candidate for Board seat 12, Board Seat 12 Nomination Process 2021. · Appointment Byron Holland, acting chair of ccNSO Council regarding Board Seat 12 Nomination Process 2021 · Adoption ccNSO Council Statement on Final Report ATRT 3 4. ccPDP 3 a.

IDN ccTLD related work items (ccPDP4) Quite a significant number of volunteers. The one displayed are members, representatives from ccTLD Managers. Some participants stepped forward as well. Council needs to formally appoint the members to the ccPDP4 WG. Move? Alejandra Seconded? Pablo Questions? Against? None Abstain? None All in favour 6. Adoption CCWG AP Final Report Move? Stephen Second? Alejandra Stephen: Thank you to Ching, who continued to act as co-chair on behalf of the ccNSO, even after his term on the Council ended Against? None Abstain? None All in favour 7. Selecting members for the the Independent Review Process (IRP) Standing Panel Discussed some time ago on the mailing list. Submitted comments. Who would select members to the standing panel? We suggested the Implementation Oversight Team (oversee recommendations from WS1) could take on this role. Other groups saw this differently. Suggestion that each group appoints 1 appointee, whohas authority to appoint members on the panel. We are still waiting for the ToR and the expected time commitment. Chair will monitor actions by ICANN org and inform the council, prepare decisions, ensure calls for volunteers are sent out. Initial deadline: end of July. Deadline was extended. Reasonable number of applications were received in the meanwhile. No questions or concerns regarding the proposed to do. 8. Result meeting Board OEC on ccNSO Review Recommendations from organisational review. RWP reviewed those recommendations, and submitted its Report to the Board OECD. This was presented to the Board during a meeting as well. Biyi and Katrina attended. Katrina had a very apt presentation, meeting went well. Katrina shared views of the RWP and the things the council agreed with. Few questions from the Board members. General feel: the presentation went very well. Few people had concerns about some of the recommendations we agreed would be cautious to implement. Presentation presented to OECD was shared with the Council. Katrina thanked Biyi for his support. 9. ccNSO Council workshop a. June 2020 Council Workshop Chair to prepare decisions to implement the proposed actions, especially regarding outreach and engagement activities b. ICANN69 Council workshop Jordan: PDP process discussion, including when we do not have face-to-face meetings. Ease of participation, and pace of it. Are process changes required or not? This could be done online. Stephen: planning breakout sessions for the ccPDP3-ret WG and ccPDP3-RM, to speed things up. Katrina: how long does it take? Jordan: * If brainstorm session: we need 45 min to 1h. * Collection ideas and then followed by discussion and come up with an answer and actions: in that case we need 2 hours, with a break in between. Katrina: perhaps in general add a discussion on how we can be more efficient and faster in the things we do. Bart: stick to just the ccPDP. It is focused. Otherwise you easily end up with just brainstorming ideas. PDPs take up the most effort in terms of duration and general efforts. Katrina: we will start preparing the next workshop, together with Jordan Bart: do you want us to send out a doodle poll? Katrina: yes. Please only respond to the doodle if you plan to attend This workshop is not mandatory. 10. ICANN69 preparations a.

Katrina: rather present the results Stephen: we are done with 1st WG work,once the review of the comments has been completed. Bart: might be useful if you think about separating ccPDP3-ret and ccPDP3-RM: in that case the GAC needs to be consulted, as part of the process. The ccNSO takes it work seriously. Introduce also the point of speeding up the process. As soon as you go in a formal decision-making, the GAC needs to be consulted and asked its opinion. Stephen: agrees we should have this topic as part of the GAC webinar. 11. Update ECA & CSC a. ECA Quiet period. NomCom appointments expected shortly. b. CSC Brett Carr selected for 2nd term.
