ccTLD Adress Book
by Kristina Nordstrom Feb. 14, 2012

Feb. 14, 2012

Dear Councillors, As mentioned during today's Council call we are trying to find a way to activate the ccTLD Community Wiki Space. One way could be to introduce a ccTLD Address Book - which has been requested by several community members. The point of the address book would be for the ccTLDs to have a non-public location where they can go to find contact information for their peers and make it easier for everyone to exchange information. Before asking the rest of the community I would like to kindly ask all of you who would like to share your contact information on this closed space to send me your details so that I can compile them and put them on the wiki https://community.icann.org/display/ccTLD/ccTLD+Adress+Book. Any information you would like to list is of course voluntary, but you can use the example below as a template: ------- Name of Registry: Name of Contact: Telephone Nr: Email: Address: Other information: ------- Thanks and kind regards, Kristina

Dear all, There is a new section on the ccNSO resources page called Internet Government Control Acts, where we have gathered some links to national and international Internet Government Control documents, such as SOPA, PIPA, ACTA, IPRED etc.: http://www.ccnso.icann.org/resources/national-and-international-control-act… Please, contact me if you wish to share documents which you think can be relevant for this page. I would also like to highlight our Internet Government Control session in Costa Rica, which is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, 13 March at 14.00 – 15.25.

GNSO Liaison Update
by Gabriella Schittek Feb. 14, 2012

Feb. 14, 2012

Sent on behalf of Han Chuan Lee. === 1. The WHOIS Review Team has came out with a Recommendations report. In that report, questions were raised pertaining to Recommendations 1 and 18 which may concern the ccTLDs. Recommendation 1: ICANN's WHOIS policy is poorly defined and decentralized The ICANN Board should oversee the creation of a single WHOIS policy document, and reference it in subsequent versions of agreements with Contracted Parties. In doing so, ICANN should clearly document the current gTLD WHOIS policy as set out in the gTLD Registry and Registrar contracts and GNSO Consensus Policies and Procedure. Recommendation 18: ICANN Community should task a working group within 6 months of publication to finalize (i) encoding, (ii) modifications to data model, and (iii) internationalized services, to give global access to gather, store and make available internationalized registration data. Such working group should report no later than one year from formation, using existing IDN encoding. The working group should aim for consistency of approach across the gTLD and – on a voluntary basis – the ccTLD space. 2. The GNSO Council had approved the Draft Principles for Cross-Community Working Groups. ICANN staff will be disseminating them to the SO/ACs asking for inputs to the GNSO Council on both the principles themselves and the route forward for community-wide adoption or development of a related set of principles for the operation of Cross-Community Working Groups. The document is as attached. Regards Han Chuan ------ End of Forwarded Message
