The review will start with gathering community input about several aspects of the NextGen@ICANN Program, including its purpose, goals, processes, and synergies with the ICANN academic community. The survey is intended for all ICANN community groups; individuals are encouraged to work with their relevant Supporting Organizations, Advisory Committees, stakeholder groups, and constituencies. Based on the input received from the survey, ICANN org will draft a proposal for program improvements that will be published for Public Comment. Once all feedback is received, ICANN org will prepare the final proposal for program improvements. <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00193q16yUgcm5HuevrHe4Flbzq9LDpzxpslIs5GT9yh6fCL...> Survey (PDF with background at the beginning and questionnaire questions at the end) <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00193q16yUgcm5HuevrHe4Flbzq9LDpzxpslIs5GT9yh6fCL...> Background about the Community Consultation <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00193q16yUgcm5HuevrHe4Flbzq9LDpzxpslIs5GT9yh6fCL...> Sally Costerton's blog about the NextGen@ICANN Community Consultation <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00193q16yUgcm5HuevrHe4Flbzq9LDpzxpslIs5GT9yh6fCL...> NextGen webpage <https://imgssl.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101116784221/S.gif> REMINDER: Update and Information on IRP IOT Re-Composition Executive: John Jeffrey, General Counsel FOR: All SO/AC Chairs INFORMATION SHARING As the ICANN Board committee with oversight responsibility of ICANN's accountability mechanisms, the Board Accountability Mechanisms Committee (BAMC) considers the work of the [Independent Review Process (IRP)] Implementation Oversight Team (IOT) to be paramount to ICANN's accountability...we seek your help in finding additional volunteers within the community that meet the qualifications identified in the attached letter, outlining skills and experience requirements, to join the IOT and help to conclude its work in a timely fashion. <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=00193q16yUgcm5HuevrHe4Flbzq9LDpzxpslIs5GT9yh6fCL...> Read more. <https://imgssl.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101116784221/S.gif> REMINDER: Planning Assumptions for Subsequent Procedures for New gTLDs Executive: Cyrus Namazi, Senior Vice President, Global Domains Division FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING In December 2015, the GNSO initiated a Policy Development Process (PDP) to determine if changes to existing policy recommendations are needed before the next round of gTLDs. The PDP Working Group expects to publish its final report with its recommendations by December 2019. These recommendations may lead to procedural changes for subsequent rounds of gTLD applications, which ICANN org must implement and manage. In the course of our preparatory work toward the planning and implementation of the new policy, ICANN org has compiled a number of fundamental operationally focused assumptions to help with the preliminary planning and operational readiness of the organization. These assumptions have been shared with the ICANN Board, and now ICANN org would like to share them with relevant parts of the community.
