RE: AW: [liaison6c] EXTENSION OF DEADLINE - Call for Applicants for a Position of Volunteer Review Team Member - 29 July 2010

As long as the SGs are supportive of this approach, I would be fine with it. My concern has been that the SGs and their respective members were being force to compact their implementation of the process in a manner that would not allow enough time. My first reaction when I heard indirectly about the extension was to assume that the deadline for GNSO endorsements would be extended to correspond to the application period extension so I tested that assumption was told that was incorrect. I found that unacceptable because it seriously compromised the process we had approved.

This is totally unacceptable. Chuck – You make the point that the issue of 2 or 4 reps must be dealt with as a separate issue. If that’s the case, by the same token so must the issue of the timetable for GNSO endorsement. As a minimum any decision on this must require council support, its’ far too big an issue for an arbitrary decision by the council chair. This activity gets to the very heart of ICANN’s future.

The rationale for my decision is really very simple. This extension was made without consultation with the GNSO and without any consideration of the approved GNSO endorsement process. Once I found out about it (today after the Council meeting, on the last day of the application period), I asked one simple question: will the deadline for GNSO endorsements be extended by the same amount of time? I was told no; GNSO endorsements are still do the end of August. The Council approved a process that gives SGs 21 days to to perform their endorsement processes and then allows time for the Council in consultation with its respective groups. We were given 45 days for our process; with the extension we would have two days and we don’t have a Council meeting scheduled until the middle of September. I can see no way to make that work. If the time to execute the process was extended by the same number of days as the application period, which I assumed was the right thing to do, I would not have reacted the way I did. Normally, I would have at least consulted on the Council list before acting; in this case I made the judgment that any more delays would just add to the confusion and seriously hinder our ability to meet the end of August deadline. I am not a aware of a GNSO policy council. I assume you mean the GNSO Council that is tasked with managing the policy development process. I also believe that having 4 reps on the SSR RT is important, but that is a separate issue. I sent a message off in that regard to the selectors this morning. Feel free to send any letter you like. I think it would be good for the Board to know how this came about because it was totally unacceptable.

I have no idea why this is viewed as acceptable. It is not acceptable to my constituency. Frankly, the GNSO poiicy council should have been spending time on advocating to change the number of reps from the GNSO [as an SO] from 2 to 4, as all of us believe is critically important. I have seen no energy on that front and that disappoints me. Instead, I am seeing this notice from you, as chair of the policy council, that surprises me, and actually, shocks me. and, I guess, disappoints me. There is a notice of an extension. I sent that out immediately. It is broadly distributed in the business community. I told people of the extension. Where has your decision come from? an edict from ICANN? If so, then this needs to be made public, and the leaders of the SGs need to be engaged. Let's sort through this and why this can't be accepted. the extension has to be applied to all. All of us are, in the community of leadership in the SGs are working hard to work with the gnso policy council, but to see an announcement from the chair of the policy council that suggests that the extension does not apply to GNSO candidates is mystifying, confusing and cannot be supported by the BC chair. upon receipt of the extension, like any good chair of a constituency, and executive member of a SG, I distributed the ICANN staff announcement about an extension to the BC and other leadership of CSG. I advised my constituency and others of the extension. I could say: I just don't get it. What is the process to decide that an extension that is announced does not apply to the GNSO candidates? I have no idea what you mean by "unless notified to the contrary", but it must be a code for something. Please call me at 202 252 6787 on my cell. At this point, I am writing a letter of concern to the full Board that this extension which is now publicly available, is denied to GNSO candidates. Fill me in on why I should not send that letter. You can call my cell at 202 251 6787.

Hi Marika and others on ICANN staff, Thanks very much for your quick work organizing the mp3 streaming of today's GNSO Council meeting. Even without much advance notice and timing conflicts for several who would have participated, I think we got a good test of the system. I heard reports that it worked well, and it enhanced NCSG's practice of running a skype chatroom for Councilors and NCSG members. I hope we will continue the practice, as it adds both transparency and opportunity for Councilor interaction with stakeholder group members and the public.

At this stage it seems unlikely that there will be any "GAC" candidates proposed by the 15th. Hopefully, an extended deadline would still allow the ICANN constituencies sufficient time to review the list of candidates and determine who to endorse before the Selectors make the final selections at the beginning of September. This new deadline would also allow the Selectors to finalize the composition of the RTs before the nominations deadline passes -- which would be preferable from a process point of view. Thoughts?

Community Notice: Revised Process for Selection of Sites for ICANN International Public Meetings
by Glen de Saint Géry July 15, 2010

July 15, 2010

Community Notice: Revised Process for Selection of Sites for ICANN International Public Meetings http://icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-3-21jun10-en.htm 21 June 2010 The ICANN Board Committee on Public Participation has approved a modified process for identifying the location of ICANN International Public Meetings. The bid process by which ICANN Meeting sites have been chosen in the past inherently limits the range of choices to cities and venues to those that submit a bid. The goal of the modified process is to continue to inform and consult ICANN stakeholders on locations of ICANN Meetings, while ensuring that the venues ultimately selected provide the best combination of logistics and security for all ICANN Meeting delegates. This modified selection process will maintain the current practice of regional rotation of ICANN Meetings, and those in the geographic region will continue to be invited to submit recommendations for specific locations. These recommended venues, along with others in the region that meet the established selection criteria, will be considered. The final location for the ICANN Meeting will then be selected through the evaluation of both community-recommended and ICANN-identified locations. This new meeting site selection process will be implemented beginning with the 40th ICANN International Meeting to be held 13-18 March 2011 in North America. An announcement requesting location recommendations from the ICANN community will be posted on 21 July 2010. It will contain the criteria by which sites will be evaluated. ICANN welcomes your feedback on this revised meeting site selection process and will consider that input to aid in future enhancements to the process. David A. Olive Vice President, Policy Development Support Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) 1101 New York Avenue, NW - Suite 930 - Washington, D.C. 20005 Office: 202.570.7126 Mobile: 202.341.3611
