Dear Heather, Donna, and Rafik, On behalf of the ccNSO Council I would like to thank you for the invitation to appoint two members and two alternates to the EPDP on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data team. The ccNSO Council considered the invite and decided NOT to appoint members or alternates to the EPDP team. The ccNSO Council’s reasoning is: a. the policy remit of the ccNSO, as defined in the ICANN Bylaws, is limited and excludes a (policy) view of the ccNSO on WHOIS and TLD data collection, b. the requirement that ccNSO appointed members should represent the formal position of the ccNSO, and not their individual views or positions, is not in line with the ccNSO working procedures, and, c. individuals who meet the required skill-set and expertise cannot make the required time commitment. However, the ccNSO Council will encourage individual ccTLDs to share their experience when so asked by the GNSO Council and/or EPDP team. The ccNSO Council has also noted future opportunities to provide meaningful input to the documents during public comment periods. We would like to wish the team wisdom and all the best in meeting the objectives of the EPDP.
