Hello all, This is a final reminder regarding the draft letter to the Board. Please review the proposed draft by Wednesday, 8 September 2021 (23:59 UTC). Thank you. Best regards, Joke Braeken ccNSO Policy Advisor joke.braeken@icann.org From: Ccnso-council <ccnso-council-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of ccnso-council <ccnso-council@icann.org> Reply to: Joke Braeken <joke.braeken@icann.org> Date: Monday, 6 September 2021 at 13:56 To: ccnso-council <ccnso-council@icann.org> Subject: [ccnso-council] [REVIEW DRAFT] Letter to ICANN Board | change of Article 10 and Annex B of the ICANN Bylaws Dear Councillors, I am following up on the correspondence below. The ccNSO now needs to formally submit a request to the ICANN Board to change the Article 10 and Annex B of the ICANN Bylaws, to enable IDN ccTLD Managers to become members of the ccNSO. A draft letter to the ICANN Board is available for your review. Go to https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FIWNclZcgUc3RoNWkX2QkdyqXEvRXRHliK3penUtzwE/edit?usp=sharing<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/document/d/1FIWNclZcgUc3RoNWkX2QkdyqXEvRXRHliK3penUtzwE/edit?usp=sharing__;!!PtGJab4!vId3QIemAZvRGWeClOuOzQUnvga0mJU9IvEjK3JG-TAtBP2McPko7gRlleTSPf4JbZ3HVcCx$> Since time is of essence in this process, please review the proposed draft by Wednesday, 8 September 2021 (23:59 UTC). Your comments or suggestions are welcome. Background This change request is the result of an extensive consultation with the ccNSO members. It started with the second ccNSO Policy Development Process on IDN ccTLDs, which was adopted by the membership in 2013. Additional community consultations took place: in October 2019 - on separating the Bylaw change effort and the launch of the 4th ccNSO PDP on the selection of IDN ccTLD strings – followed by consultations as part of the ccNSO Statement process on the proposed changes of Article 10 and Annex B ( https://ccnso.icann.org/en/about/ccnso-to-icann-legal-18feb21-en.pdf [ccnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/ccnso.icann.org/en/about/ccnso-to-icann-l...>). Recently ICANN legal provided a response to the ccNSO Statement on the proposed changes to Article 10 of the ICANN Bylaws. Following ICANN Legal’s questions and suggested changes, additional consultations were held in August 2021 regarding the latest proposed changes to Article 10 and Annex B: Council was consulted from 13-19 August, and the ccNSO membership was consulted 20-27 August. Some community members submitted comments, which did not result in further edits to the latest proposed Bylaw changes to Article 10 and Annex B, as per the rationale previously circulated (see email below).

I agree with you, this process has taken a long time to get to where we are and it is not the first time this definition has been presented to the community. It was already included in the proposed overall policy for the inclusion of IDNccTLD Managers in the ccNSO selection of IDN ccTLD strings (ccPDP2) as adopted by the ccNSO in 2013, and submitted to the Board. The definition was confirmed again in the October 2019 consultation resulting in the request to change Article 10 and Annex B of the Bylaws and in the ccNSO Statement on the first set of questions from ICANN Legal more recently. Additionally, in the discussions with respect to the ccPDP4 (de-)selection of IDN ccTLD strings, the term ‘Territory’ will be proposed and is defined in the same manner. Therefore, I propose that we relay the comments received to ICANN Legal and keep the current definition. I have cleaned the Google Doc [docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/document/d/12zZZuHmyatXuM...> and everyone can send comments or suggestions until tomorrow at 22:00 UTC.

(the draft team's main jobs). I’m afraid that if we raise the issues about the "country" and " territory," that might take more time to pass the amendment. regards ai-chin -----Original message----- From:Alejandra Reynoso via Ccnso-council<ccnso-council@icann.org<mailto:ccnso-council@icann.org>> To:ccNSO Council<ccnso-council@icann.org<mailto:ccnso-council@icann.org>> Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2021 07:05:30 Subject: [ccnso-council] [REVIEW DRAFT] Feedback on Proposed Amendments to Article 10 and Annex B Dear Councillors Following the ccNSO Members' consultation regarding the Proposed Amendments to Article 10 and Annex B.
