Update on CCWG Accountability WS 2 recommendations

Final report will be sent to SO/ACs next week. By Barcelona they expect the SO/ACs to come to a decision

Peter Vergote: Thomas Rickert said he would like to see the approval by the Barcelona meeting.

Action item: check the expectations with the CCWG, and whether it is feasible.

Nigel Roberts: council vote or members vote?

Bart: when looking at WS1, there was a broad consultation with the ccTLD community present at the meeting, and prior via the ccTLDworld mailing list. This is not a PDP. We will use the same procedure as WS1. Real debate is for the members and ccTLDs present.

Adoption of the Final Report of the CSC Charter Review Team, ratification of the amended CSC Charter

Report is a good analysis of the current situation. Tweeks that will make the work of the CSC easier, and removes any ambiguities.

Move? Stephen

Second? Byron

Byron: thanks to the review team. Very constructive and positive interaction. The updated charter is a strong step forward and the CSC members are very positive about the final work product.

Hiro: editorial point. “as soon as” is to be removed from line 4 of the decision.

Unanimously in favour.

Continuation of the ccNSO Onboarding mentor/mentee Programme

Structure is well defined and has been proven to work. Continue the approach for the WGs or the ccNSO in general. It will help people to be involved and step up.

How do you see the programme continued?

What is necessary from the council, the secretariat, everyone else?

Set up an onboarding committee: these are the people in charge. Find mentors (which area/WG) and mentees.

Action item:

Develop an options paper by August/September meeting. Clear direction to be drafted before the Barcelona meeting. Come up with some options on how to continue.

Alejandra and Margarita to come up with ideas, consultation with Jelena. Maintain element from the current onboarding programme.
