Greetings Irina and Bart, Thank you Irina for bringing the “completion” of the “PDP3 Retirement implementation” within ICANN Org (and presumably, IANA) to the Council’s attention. Not sitting on the Triage Committee, I was not aware of this proclamation on behalf of ICANN Org. As the Chair of the PDP3 WG with regards to ccTLD Retirement and the Review Mechanism, I of course have an extreme interest in how ICANN Org (and the Board) are handling these matters. For the record, I find the complete lack of communication between ICANN Org/IANA/ICANN Board to the ccNSO Community regarding their implementation of the adopted Retirement Policy distressing. I fear we are going down the same rabbit hole with respect to the Board and their consideration of the proposed Review Mechanism policy. Are we as the proposing SO going to sit idly by whilst the Board repeats their back side scratching for over a year as they did with the Retirement policy? I think we as the ccNSO Council need to call the Board out on their inaction on policy which has been developed by the ccNSO Community, with consultation with other SO/AC’s, approved by the ccNSO Community, and finally, endorsed by the ccNSO Community, and has withstood not one, but two community-wide public comment periods. What is their hesitation here? More importantly, what is behind their inability to communicate to the ccNSO Community their hesitation to express their potential concerns regarding the proposed Review Mechanism policy?
