Draft FY20 Operating Plan and Budget Now Available for Your Feedback - ICANN CEO- Göran Marby
by Nathalie Peregrine Dec. 20, 2018

Dec. 20, 2018

https://www.icann.org/news/blog/draft-fy20-operating-plan-and-budget-now-av… Draft FY20 Operating Plan and Budget Now Available for Your Feedback As a not-for-profit organization working in the public interest, one of the ICANN organization's most important responsibilities is to develop an annual operating budget. We posted our Draft Operating Plan and Budget for Fiscal Year 2020<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2018-12-17-en>. Long-term financial planning and fiscal responsibility is necessary, and can only be achieved when the ICANN org, Board, and community work together to properly plan. In FY20, we continue to anticipate minimal growth in funding; it is forecasted at $140.1 million, up 2% from FY19. Expenses are budgeted below funding at $137.1 million. As a result of the budgeted increase of the Reserve Fund, the budgeted funding is slightly higher than last year. We've budgeted to contribute approximately $3 million (2 to 3% of the total budget) to the Reserve Fund, which will not have any negative impact to planned work. Annual allocation to the Reserve Fund will be the standard approach, at least until it is replenished to the minimum target level. This simply is the right thing to do. Constituency and fellowship travel support will remain at the same level as FY19, as will the ICANN org staff, which stands at approximately 400 people. To ensure the best support for the community's work, we have controls in place to hire or replace staff only when clearly required, but we still ensure the best support for the community's work after driving efficiency improvements. We've also brought the timeline for Public Comment forward to begin before the end of 2018. We've extended the comment period to 53 days to give you more time to review the documents. You will find five detailed documents, with content broken into six modules by topic: Contractual Compliance and Consumer Safeguards, Direct Policy Support, DNS Marketplace and Identifier Ecosystem, Technology and DNS Security, Engagement, and Reviews. The FY20 planning cycle is the final year of the current strategic plan, which makes it a transition year, as we are developing the 2021-2025 Strategic Plan in parallel. During FY20, we will use the new strategic plan to plan for FY21. You, the community, play an essential role in planning for the year ahead. We need and want your feedback and input. I look forward to productive discussions about this proposed Budget over the coming months before it's finalized in March 2019. Please take action! Share your comments here<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2018-12-17-en> during the Public Comment process. David A. Olive | Senior Vice President Policy Development Support ICANN | Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers 801 17th Street NW, Suite 400 | Washington, DC 20006<x-apple-data-detectors://3>

Notes and action items from today's new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG meeting
by Joke Braeken Dec. 19, 2018

Dec. 19, 2018

Dear All, Please find below the notes and action items from today’s new gTLD Auction Proceeds meeting. Best regards, Joke Braeken = = = = = = = Notes & Action Items - New gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG meeting - 19 December at 14:30 UTC These high-level notes are designed to help the CCWG navigate through the content of the call and are not meant as a substitute for the transcript and/or recording. The MP3, transcript, and chat are provided separately and are posted on the wiki at: https://community.icann.org/x/DLHDAw<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_…>. 1. Roll call * Attendance will be taken from AC * Please remember to mute your microphones when not speaking and state your name before speaking for transcription purposes. 2. Welcome & DOI/SOI updates * Please remember to check your SOI/DOIs on a regular basis and update as needed * this is an orientation call on how to move forward. 3. High-level overview of public comment review tool * The staff report was published. The public comment period is now formally closed. * Certain comments provided via the public comments focused on a charter question or on a recommendation, whereas others were more "free format". In the Review tool, which is being displayed in the AC room, you will note that the comments were broken into pieces and added to certain sections, based on their focus. * Most of the comments were focused on recommendations, annexes or charter questions. Lay-out: * top - dark blue: overall topic. * Column 1: number of the comments, for easy future reference * Column 2: the excerpt from the original text (word for word), * Column 3: the contributor, * Column 4: standard template. No analysis has been done yet. The WG can code these comments (concerns, divergence, agreement, new idea) while doing the analysis. There is room foreseen for the WG to specify how it intends to deal with the comment. The colour-coding is simply intended to help the group setting up for the analysis. * Grey: high-level overview of what the comments refer to. High-level summary, no judgement or analysis here. 4. Next steps for reviewing public comments 4 types of comments: * comments received related to our questions * completely new comments: some comments are not related to the questions we asked, or to previous discussions by the CCWG. We need to identify those points, and discuss how we intend to deal with them. * Some of the comments relate more to the implementation phase. We need to identify those comments, and come to an agreement that those topics refer to the implementation phase. * Referring to what was implicitly included in the Initial Report, but not explicitly stated out Action item #1: Following a proposal by the chair and co-chair: the leadership team and staff will do a first analysis of the comments received, by grouping them into categories. (comments related to our charter questions/recommendations; new comments; comments that relate to the implementation phase; comments related to what is implicitly stated) * If the final recommendations are very different compared to the initial report, we need a new public comment period. * what the CCWG was discussing was a structure where members of the community would be the ones that would be reviewing and deciding. The Inital Report was silent on that. We considered that as being implied, but it should have been mentioned in a more explicit way, said Elliot. The comments received via the public comments process covered with how to deal with the COI and separation from the Org. The fact that the CCWG assumed it should be community group reviewing and deciding addresses many of the comments, both directly and indirectly. * Erika confirmed this concern is being recorded, and that it will be addressed, since many of the comments refer to this. Caveat: we have not made a concrete recommendation. * A group member expressed his surprise that the CCWG did not think about those comments while it was doing the work. * Becky Burr and Maarten Botterman confirmed that the board has sent comments which say that it is imperative that the evaluation be independent. The Board had contemplated this as being an independent experts board, applying the criteria developed by the community. There are other ways to have this independence. Emphasis is on the critical nature of the independence of the evaluator. 2 assumptions: * Chair confirms an explicit understanding among the CCWG that the community is involved. We did not discuss how this involvement happens. * Chairs confirms there shall be an independent review. Various combinations are possible here. Note that Marika is currently OOO and ICANN offices are closed next week. Re-opens again on 2 January. Timeline for initial analysis to be determined shortly. 5. CCWG meeting schedule * may depend on the initial analysis, does it make sense to meet every 2 weeks? fixed time? or do we need a different meeting cycle? * Leadership thinks it would be good to deliver clarification on the topics brought up under the public comments by the Kobe meeting. Suggestion to do most of the work ahead of Kobe, and have a half a day meeting in Kobe to finalise the work. * Do we need a second public comment period? Some group members prefer not to have one, some say it cannot be avoided. Action item #2: Secretariat to share a poll via the mailing list, to determine the preferred time for the future calls, under the assumption that calls will happen every 2 weeks. 6. Next steps for work plan towards Final Report The need for a second public comment period depends on the content of the next report. Noting feedback from the Board received from the public comment period: "If the report changes significantly as a result of Public Comment, the Board would encourage a second period of Public Comment to make sure that the community and beyond have opportunities to comment on any material changes to the approach and options set forth in this draft before submission to the Chartering Organizations for adoption." 7. Reconfirmation of membership attendance is dropping. do we need to reconfirm membership, to remind people about the important work? Comments from the group that there is no need to reconfirm membership, that it would be hard to bring new members up to speed at this stage. Others mentioned that there is a lot of work still to be done, and we should ensure the CCWG has adequate resources. Action item #3: reconfirmation of membership to be discussed again at the end of the next meeting. 8. AOB Scheduling of future meetings needs to be verified against the work by other groups as well. Thank you all. Happy holidays.
