In progress Action 89-06: The Secretariat to set a schedule for the upcoming Council meetings in 2014. Completed 3) Selection Board Member, Seat 11 Background Material: Report Election Manager (Gabi) Background The ccNSO Council appointed Gabriella Schittek as election manager in accordance with the Board nominations guidelines of the ccNSO, as adopted by the Council in June 2008. The Election manager reported that during the nomination period only one candidate, Chris Disspain, was nominated and Chris has accepted his nomination. Resolution The ccNSO Council selects Chris Disspain to fill ICANN Board Seat number 11 starting at the end of ICANN’s Annual General Meeting in 2014 for a term of three years. The Council requests its Chair to inform the ICANN Secretary accordingly. The Council congratulated Chris on his nomination and selection and expressed its deep appreciation for his services to date on the ICANN Board of Directors. 4) Update Council Election FY 2014 Update Gabi: Elections in African and European Regions 5) Internet Governance Fora For discussion 6) Strawman cc Working Group Use of Country Names as TLD’s For discussion, if considered reasonable to be shared with ALAC, GNSO and GAC for discussion. Following recommendation of Study Group, the Council agreed to invite ALAC, GNSO and GAC to participate in joint working group, which can be effectuated once straw man is ready to be shared. 7) Recommendations Study Group Quorum Rule Background At its meeting in April 2013, the ccNSO Council initiated the Qurum Study Group The Quorum Study Group submitted its Final Report, which includes the following recommendations: In the light of the fundamental benefits of having quorum rules in place; however, also acknowledging that they in some cases cause operational obstacles (e.g., during Council Elections), the Study Group recommends the Council to: · Keep the Quorum for Policy Development voting as it is; · Develop a mechanism where ccNSO members can indicate how their “non-vote” should be interpreted during a voting – Abstain/Will not subscribe to policy/Do not count me as quorum (the latter meaning that the member does not consider itself having enough insight on the matter, but does not want to hinder the issue to pass a voting). · Abandon the current quorum needed for Council elections (50%+1), in order to make the process smoother. Instead, a “simple majority” model should be used, where the majority of the ballots cast decide who will win the Council election. · Review and update the Rules of the ccNSO according to the current needs of the organisation. Draft resolution The ccNSO Council welcomes the Final Report of the Quorum Study Group and recommendations contained in it. The Council notes that implementation of some the recommendations will require a ccPDP ( change of the quorum rule on voting), and others a change of the Rules of the ccNSO. The Council notes that changes of the Rules will coincide with changes to the Rules as a result of inclusion of the IDN ccTLD in the ccNSO, once the IDN ccPDP Recommendation will be adopted by the ICANN Board of Directors. The Council requests staff to report to the Council by its next meeting on the methods and requirements needed to implement the recommendations and consolidate the recommendations for change of the Rules of the ccNSO. The Council thanks the members of the Study Group for their hard and timely work in particular its chair, Katrina Sataki. 8) Review ccNSO Cocktail Background The ccNSO Council At its meeting on 25 September 2012, the Council discussed the change from ccNSO dinner to a ccNSO cocktail, and to review the change in arrangement after two meetings starting with the Bejing meeting. This was adopted by email vote. Draft Resolution After reviewing the format of the cocktail arrangement as the ccNSO social event, the ccNSO Council requests staff to continue to organize social events using the format of a cocktail. 9) Council Updates 9.1 Chair Update 9.2 Vice-Chair Update 9.3 Councilors Update 9.4 Regional Organisations Update 9.5 Staff Update 10) Working Group and Other Updates 10.1 SOP Working Group (Roelof Meijer) 10.2 ICANN Academy (Hong Xue) 11) Liaison Updates 11.1 GNSO Liaison (Patrick Myers) 11.2 ALAC Liaison (Ron Sherwood) 12 Update Work Plan 13) Dates of Next Meetings Dates and times for Council meetings in 2014: 23 January 12:00 UTC 20 February 12:00 UTC Council Meeting Singapore 25 March 16:00 local time 17 April 12:00 UTC 22 May 12:00 UTC Council Meeting London 24 June 16:00 local time 21 Aug 12:00 UTC 22 September 12:00 UTC Council Meeting Los Angeles 21 October 16:00 local time 20 November 12:00 UTC 11 December 12:00 UTC 14) AOB Kind regards, Kristina

Dear all, A revised Final Implementation Plan for the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process has been published: http://www.icann.org/en/resources/idn/fast-track/idn-cctld-implementation-p lan-05nov13-en.pdf At the same time, ICANN has announced the members of the Extended Process Similarity Review Panel: http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-04dec13-en.htm The amendment implements a two-panel process for string similarity review in the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process, and was proposed following the conclusion of the IDN Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Policy Development Process (PDP) as well as a request from the ccNSO to implement the string similarity review process as recommended in the PDP within the Fast Track Process. The ccNSO work has taken into account the experiences and reviews of the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Process as well as the Governmental Advisory Committee's advice on the matter. All pending and future IDN ccTLD Fast Track requesters whose strings are considered not valid per the string similarity assessment of the DNS Stability Evaluation, will have the option to request a second and final evaluation by the new Extended Process Similarity Review Panel (EPSRP). Kind regards, Gabi
