April 24, 2024

Dear all, Per discussion to day I have included suggestions in the draft letter. Please review and suggest changes, if any, by tomorrow 25 April, so it can be circulated to ICANN Coms on Friday Kind regards, Bart From: ccNSO-UACommittee <ccnso-uacommittee-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of Joke Braeken <joke.braeken(a)icann.org> Date: Wednesday, 24 April 2024 at 16:04 To: "ccnso-uacommittee(a)icann.org" <ccnso-uacommittee(a)icann.org> Subject: [ccNSO-UACommittee] NOTES | UAC | 24 April 2024 (13:00 UTC) NOTES | UAC | 24 April 2024 (13:00 UTC) 1. Welcome and Roll Call Welcome by Chair Abdalmonem 2. Administrative matters a. SOI updates Kim: if you have an update to the SOI, please let me know and i will send you the link b. Action items Bart: mirjana confirmed Diana’s availability for 8 May, about UA Day 2024. Abdalmonem: doing good for ccTLDs, have UA day on the agenda at ICANN80 3. Update Library & outreach plan Abdalmomen: suggestion from Vadim Kim: contacted communications team. They checked the invitation from the UAC to ccTLDs. Please look at it in the next day or so. We have a deadline for this friday, if we want something for ICANN80. Comms could create a handout, a flyer. Simple and consistent. Once we get approval for that email. They are working on a plan for that. Internal processes regarding mail subscription are changing. Talking with Bart. sending link to invite letter to subgroup. Bart: you sent link, and they reviewed. Latest Friday morning UTC, they need feedback from this group, to start creating the flyer? Kim: yes. Bart: this group has 36 hours for the review Kim: yes, for the flyer to be distributed at ICANN80. Take as much time as you want with the letter. They want to use the letter as a basis for the flyer. We need to have the request in by Friday. Flyer draft will be shared for community input. Kim shares the suggested text for the letter. Bart: focuses only on the library. The 3 points are important Kim: for now. They will add text for the mailing list. Bart: 3 channels. The intro text can be as concise as possible Abdalmonem: focuses only on library. First point is becoming a UAC member Bart: UAC members review the letter, and add changes in suggestion mode. I like that it is a 1-pager. First 4 paragraphs are too wordy. The call to action should be more prominent. Bart: deadline in 24 hours Regina: signing up to the group? Bart: yes. See 3 points. Call to action. Kim: add back the 3 calls to actions into the email. Mailing list is ready to launch, library ready too. Regina: 4 email addresses in the letter is too much. Kim: generic subscription e-mail list (for DASC, UAC etc). You have the submission one, and the subscribe one Bart: one point of contact. Regina: please change it Kim: please change it in suggest mode. Abdalmomen: order? Bart: the suggested text replaces the one on top. Abdalmomen: their suggestion is to make this the invitation email. Shorter. Kim: adding back the info about joining UAC and the request to join the mailing list Bart: please include a page break. Max 1 page. Qing Cai:agree to have the letter on 1 page max. But the revised text only focuses on the library. The other 2 calls to action are missing. Bart: i will work on this in the next 2 hours. I will let you know when i have completed my review. Then you have a better sense of the proposed letter. 4. Presentation “UA readiness” survey’s a. Presentation Eurid survey Regina: I can give a 5 min. Overview. Read more: www.IDNworldreport.eu [idnworldreport.eu]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.IDNworldreport.eu__;!!PtGJab4!_3feu7-…> Regina speaks about the data sources for ccTLDs and gTLDs, and the cooperation with ROs. Questions regarding user awareness, support by registrars, and accessibility and native languages. Important field for the future. At some point, also policy makers like the data-based decisions. Useful indicators. Or proof that certain activities make sense. We can adjust our survey, based on input from the group. Does not make sense to share too many surveys. Seda: how many participants? Regina: see website Abdalmonem: 50% is fine. 2 from 3 or 2 from 4. Numbers are important to consider. Sample of the questions? Would be good basis for our future survey. Regina: yes Abdalmomen: i have the one from last year. Regina: will look it up and share them Bart: is there also a UASG survey? On top of ICANN and EURid? Does not make sense for UASC to do the same. Let’s revisit the discussion regarding the need for a UASC survey on 8 may and later meeting. First get a sense of the current state of affairs. It would also give a nice overview to the broader commuiyt Abdalmomen: a survey coming from ccTLDs for ccTLDs would be preferred. There is also a roadmap for ccTLD readiness. Momentum signed by ICANN and APTLD. Would be good to get a sense about the content of the document. Bart: for inclusion in the library? Abdalmomen: yes. b. Presentation ICANN org survey Seda: prefer to defer Bart: focus on ccTLDs and UA awareness Suggestion to extend the 8 may meeting to 90 min. UA Day presentations for 30 min, and the remainder of the session would be focus on the surveys. Seda: works for me. c. Discussion: need for UAC survey? Bart: UAC explored the option to have its own survey.but there are other surveys out there, so the added value for an own UAC survey is very limited. Use the results of the survey to infom the broader community at Kigali. Qing Cai: answered the survey last year. Question about the registration numbers. Would be good to add questions in the future survey, namely: * Are you willing to send technical experts or business experts to join UAC? * Are you willing to share case studies? Bart: part of the roadmap, to share case studies. Qing Cai: can the library team share contributions in the form of journals? Articles or case studies? Also, the letter. We need feedback. Bart: please send your suggestions to the library team itself. The editorial board can review and inform you about its decision Kim: could we make a copy of the library-specific email. To be used later. Maybe in a year, do an engagement survey. See tld-ops example Bart: yes. Also other surveys Abdalmomen: UASG and UAC to determine the survey questions. Last time, very few ccTLDs responded. Now we have UAC, to help encourage ccTLDs to respond. We should plan before launching. Cctld contributions to UA Day are important. We should have a plan with UASG. important to consider. Regina: i want to show you, to give you a sense of what EURid shares. Not sure whether i am available on 8 May. public holiday in my country. 5. UA session @ ICANN80 (Kigali)| Wednesday 12 June, block 1 (75 minutes) Abdalmomen: can we send the invite letter before ICANN80? Announce it at ICANN80? Bart: yes, can circulate prior. The session at ICANN80 will be another call to action. Abdalmomen: we should also share our views regarding contributions by ccTLDs to UA Day. Bart: thirdly, the outcome of the surveys. And the need for an additional survey. Maybe even ask the question to the community Abdalmomen: banners for promotion. Are they ready? Bart: see Kim’s update at the start of the meeting. But that is info to share, and not about the content of the meeting itself. Bart: support staff comes up with a session flow and how this meeting could work. Does this work for you? Any suggestions for inclusion? Or discuss later? Regina: if you have something in mind, please draft a proposal. Better to start from a proposal. Bart: do you agree with these 3 topics for a session in Kigali? a. Topics: Introducing workplan, library and email li b. UA days: why relevant for ccTLD and how to get involved? (Planning 2025) c. UA readiness ccTLD: outcome surveys to date, need for additional survey? d. Other? Abdalmonem: we do not have survey outcome to date. Bart: we do. One from ICANN org, and the other one from EURid. That is what is meant here. Question is, do we need an additional survey by UAC? Bart: if you agree with the 3 topics, please check green marks Group agrees. This allows us to detail the question Seda: is the session a separate session run by UAC? There is also a separate prep week session by UASG and ICANN, to which UASC will be invited. Bart: this is a session as part of the ccnso members meeting. They are organised by ccnso groups, and open to all with an interest. See Tech Day example. Planning for this session: suggestion to structure it around the 3 topics you just agreed on. Seda: i will not be in Kigali. Bart: there will be remote participation. Regina: can present remotely 5. Next meeting: 8 May 2024 | 13.00 UTC (includes further discussion UA days 2024) Abdalmonem: Is the invite correct? 90 min. 6. AOB None 7. Adjourn See you soon.

NOTES | UAC | 17 April 2024 (13:00 UTC)
by Joke Braeken April 17, 2024

April 17, 2024

NOTES | UAC | 17 April 2024 (13:00 UTC) 1. Welcome & Roll Call Apologies by Abdalmonem, Sarmad, Seda Welcome by Regina, who will chair the meeting today. 2. Admin matters a. SOI updates The ccNSO Statement of Interest form: https://forms.gle/79Jw4wSnNhn5W4Z46 Bart: if there is a change in affiliation, please inform the committee. Filling out the SOI form is voluntary for members of this committee. Regina: members completed the form in Autumn. Relatively recent Kim: If you’re unsure, please confirm here: https://community.icann.org/x/doAFEg Bart: example was Ai-Chin or Qing Cai leaving CNNIC b. Action Items 3. UA Day events 2024: report back (Mirjana, and others) a. UA Day Belgrade Mirjana: We were host. Very satisfied with the event. The venue was very nice. Almost 180 people were on site. The community still does not necessarily know about UA. satisfied with the event Regina: quite a good echo in the media. Feedback about awareness among users? Mirjana: indeed! Marketing department is following up closely on this. They might have better insights regarding the follow-up. Bart: Could you perhaps ask them, for the next meeting? One of the added values is the impact on the outside world. Invite someone from the marketing team? Mirjana: Yes, I can try. I am not very involved in daily registry matters. Bart: What was the role of the registry in organising the sessions? How does UA Day look like Regina: from the format it was a series about panel discussions. Local community, UNESCO, ITU, ICANN, tech topics too. All with interest in IDNs and UA. The person from UNESCO was interested in hosting an event next year. If colleagues from marketing cannot join yet at the next opportunity, a future event would be good too. Imagine they need time to evaluate the results. Bart: 1 May. Many people have holiday Regina: part of Europe has holidays on 8 May Wednesday 8 May is a public holiday as well (end of the WWII), but it seems it is not in many countries, here in CZ and for example France, but e.g. Serbia celebrates on 9th May, right Mirjana: better. I will be celebrating 40 years of networking at RIPE (missing notes) Bart: if she could present about the event, and the impact on the community. Vadim: It would be perfect to hear Diana as a person deeply involved to all organizational parts of the event Anna: important, and a new experience. It was high level. CEO ICANN attended. She gave a very interesting speech about the importance of UA and multilingualism. Personally received info about academia. Important to educate new people. Understand how to awaken the interest of the business community. Some parts will be of interest to them. I recall someone from the university, Alexandra, that she tried to inform her students about UA, IDNs etc . But the group has different levels. Sarmad then talked about various models that can be used to organise some lectures, seminars etc. we spoke about impact. 7 May there will be an international UA Day in Armenia. I will speak about what happened in Belgrade. Media will pick up the news, with pictures etc. our PR Team asked me about the topics that were addressed at UA Day. big interest. Example of best experience, and big results. Thanks to Serbia for organizing this. Vadim: great event. Huge effort from the host side. I saw the workload Diana had to manage. Constructive conversations. As a speaker myself, I tried to have a panel discussion. Also attended the social events. Different aspects to UA. Specialists from different areas: domain industry, owners email servers, internet service providers… Event needs to be repeated in future. Anna: face to face meetings are very important Vadim: many thanks to ICANN. Regina: thanks for sharing your impressions. Let’s go to item c on the agenda b. Other UA day events Regina: defer to future meetings? Knows about future events Anna: https://uaday.am https://uaday.am/en/ 7 May - National Universal Acceptance Day, 2024. You can see URL above. There you also can see the materials and agenda from Regional Universal Acceptance Day, 28 March ,2023 c. Is there a role for UAC in helping to organize future UA day events? Bart: is indeed one of the goals by UAC, as included in the Roadmap 4. ccNSO UA session @ICANN80 Topics to date: · Present work to date (library etc) · UA days: those done to date, and invite to next UA Days · UA Readiness ccTLDs to date: why important, what can be done, need for additional data (survey)? Bart: excellent opportunity to raise awareness about future UA Day 2024 Regina: share views of the ccTLDs attending here. Serbian registry’s testimonial would be the one with the most impact. Impressive, in terms of outreach. Bart: ok, topic to further explore Do you agree with the topics? Regina: yes. Recurring topic. Include in action items. Bart: selection UA Day events You noted just a few ccTLDs that applied. Regina: some of the affiliations were indeed related to ccTLDs. Bart: informing the community about UA Day 2025 in Istanbul does not make sense. It would be too late. Hence include it on the agenda in Kigali. Regina: Yes, useful. Call for proposals will go out in September probably. ICANN 81 is too late. Bart: regarding work to date. Asking Kim about the outreach planning Kim: met with ICANN org comms and marketing team, whether they could assist us. Asked them 10 days ago. Last week they had staff meetings and holidays, so limited availability. Waiting for feedback. Do not expect feedback next week. Will follow up. Bart: this group should have a basic idea of the direction of travel Kim: yes, progress report. Bart: as per the roadmap, UAC needs to run a survey too, and that requires a lot of effort. Regina: first determine what we need to measure. Bart: share info about the survey at ICANN80 when we talk about current and upcoming work by UAC Kim shows the draft ccNSO block schedule. Bart: UAC will meet at ICANN80 on Wednesday, 12 June. 09:00-10:15 local time. There will be no ccNSO cocktail on Tuesday evening. Previously we foresaw a slot on Thursday, but that does not match with the overall planning of the work by other ccnso working groups. The World Cafe Session requires a 90 min. Block, plus time for introductions and agenda-setting. Regina: UTC time? Joke & Kim: local time Joke: 9 am local time is 7 UTC Regina: ccNSO GAC meeting. Different topics? Bart: yes. But meeting still needs to be confirmed. Might be deferred to Istanbul, due to the heavy GAC agenda for ICANN80. 5. Next meetings: 24 April 2024 at 13 UTC | review of surveys to date Regina: I can share the type of questions included in the survey. Results not yet available. Bart: to be able to compare the 2 surveys, it might be wise to check whether there is overlap with the ICANN survey? Involving Seda? Regina: Which surveys? Bart: yours, and the ICANN survey on ccTLD UA readiness. Regina: will be documented. Bart: We asked Seda to present. Due to upcoming public holidays, Bart suggests we do not meet on 1 May, but instead meet on 8 May and 15 May. otherwise there is not sufficient time to prepare for ICANN80 Bart: asking Anna report on Armenian UA Day Vadim: question about repository. no feedback about receipt of the document. Kim: will take that offline. Regarding the status of the submissions Anna: sent it for the first time in February. They asked me to wait Kim: i see it in the tracker Mirjana: when shall we invite Diana? Bart: 8 may. If that does not work for her, we can do it on the 24th. Mirjana: who will arrange that she gets invited? Bart: please ask Kim. 6. AOB Bart: question to Qing Cai regarding continuation in her current role Qing Cai: i will stay, no changes Joke: probably mix-up. Glad Qing Cai continuous in her current role 7. Adjourn Thank you!
