The ccNSO members voted in March-April 2022 on the adoption of the proposed new ccNSO internal rules. The timeline of the vote (see Annex A) was defined as per the 2004 Rules and adopted by the ccNSO Council. Joke Braeken was appointed Voting Process Manager. After the successful conclusion of the vote the Voting Process Manager prepared a report for consideration by the Council to formally conclude the voting and report incidents if any and the results of the vote. Accordingly no incidents have occurred and the result of the vote was:

• At the closure of the vote, 96 ccNSO members out of 172 (55 %) casted their votes

o The total number of Ballots Cast (including duplicates) was 101. 

o Ballots Counted (excluding duplicates) was 96

• Number of Voters Who Did not Vote: 76
• 91 voters supported the ccNSO Council's recommendation to adopt the proposed new rules, and
• 5 voters did not support the recommendation. 

Decision

The ccNSO Council adopts the report on the vote to amend the 2004 Rules of the ccNSO.

The Council thanks the Voting Process Manager for the flawless voting process, and all those who engaged with the community to solicit voting to reach the required threshold of 50 % of the ccNSO membership that had to cast a vote.

The ccNSO Council also thanks the GRC, and specifically its subgroup under leadership of David McAuley for the hard and exemplary work in preparing the amendments and managing the process leading up to the vote.

1. Joint ccNSO – GNSO meeting

Proposed Topics:

● What happens after PDP recommendations are accepted by either council?
Both groups are finding that post-PDP timelines lack predictability, particularly when extending well beyond the time invested in the PDP itself. Both SOs will share  their approaches to remedy the issue and find potential mutually applicable solutions.

● DNS Abuse
Updates from both groups on our activities on this topic and our interactions with the rest of the community.

● EPDP Phase 2 SSAD and ODA
The GNSO would like to update the ccNSO on the latest developments of the EPDP Phase 2 – SSAD since the publication of the ODA on 25 January 2022, as the suggested direction may come of interest to certain ccTLDs in the future.

● IDN
While the ccPDP4 is awaiting a response from the Board following the January 2022 submission of its report, one of the liaisons between it and the GNSO EPDP on IDNs may want to report on the latest developments of the later which may affect both groups [if any].
