ATRT Recommendation 5: Board Compensation
by Glen de Saint Géry Nov. 10, 2011

Nov. 10, 2011

http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-3-04nov11-en.htm ATRT Recommendation 5: Board Compensation Independent Valuation Expert's Report Available for Viewing 4 November 2011 ICANN has received a report<http://www.icann.org/en/general/report-board-directors-compensation-conside…> [PDF, 4.88 MB] from Towers Watson, the Independent Valuation Expert retained to give advice on consideration for compensating ICANN's Board of Directors. ICANN is now posting that report<http://www.icann.org/en/general/report-board-directors-compensation-conside…> [PDF, 4.88 MB] to keep the community updated on ICANN's progress toward meeting Recommendation 5 of the Accountability and Transparency Review Team, recommending that the Board immediately implement a compensation scheme for Directors. The retention of the Independent Valuation Expert is part of the process that was set out in the Board's 25 August 2011 resolution http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-25aug11-en.htm#4. The Board also approved the posting for public comment revisions to ICANN's Conflicts of Interest Policy and Bylaws to allow Directors to consider Director compensation-related items; that comment forum was closed on 3 October 2011. Those proposed revisions, the comments received and the report on those comments are available at http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-01sep11-en.htm. Because of the strict rules governing the Board's consideration of the topic of compensation, the Board must review the Expert's opinion without modification. While ICANN welcomes community feedback on this Report, ICANN is not seeking full public comment because the Report cannot be modified. If you have thoughts on the Report or on the topic of Board compensation, you may forward those submissions to boardcomp(a)icann.org<mailto:boardcomp@icann.org>. Feedback should be provided by 4 December 2011. Note from Towers Watson, the Independent Valuation Expert: This report was prepared for, and at the request of, the Board of Directors of ICANN, for use by the Board in evaluating the structure and reasonableness of independent director compensation program. The information in this report is not intended nor necessarily suitable for other purposes. Any third party recipient will be deemed to have agreed to the following: (1) this report contains confidential and proprietary work product of Towers Watson, which owns all related intellectual property rights; (2) Towers Watson represents and is responsible only to ICANN with respect to all matters relating to this report; (3) this report was prepared for ICANN's internal use and assumes a high level of knowledge of ICANN's operations, the data used in this report and the external factors affecting ICANN's business; Towers Watson would not expect a third party to have such knowledge; (4) the recipient will not have the right to reference or distribute this report in whole or in part to any other party, including, but not limited to, any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of such recipient; and (5) the recipient will not place any reliance on this report, or the information contained herein or related hereto, that would result in the creation of any duty or liability by Towers Watson to such recipient.

Competiting Proposed Motion on the UDRP PDP
by Neuman, Jeff Nov. 9, 2011

Nov. 9, 2011

I know that Mary has submitted a motion on the UDRP, but I ask that this one be submitted and voted upon in the event that Mary's motion fails. I am not pre-supposing it will, but here is a motion just in case. This is in line with the discussions we all had in Dakar about delaying a PDP on the UDRP for 18 months after the first delegation, but still addressing the transfer issue now. There are some links that need to be inserted. Thanks. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Whereas the Registration Abuse Policies Working Group submitted a final report the GNSO Council on 29 May 2010 (see http://gnso.icann.org/issues/rap/rap-wg-final-report-29may10-en.pdf) recommending an issue report on the current state of the UDRP considering both (a) How the UDRP has addressed the problem of cybersquatting to date, and any insufficiencies/inequalities associated with the process, and (b) Whether the definition of cybersquatting inherent within the existing UDRP language needs to be reviewed or updated, and Whereas, on February 3, 2011, the GNSO Council requested an Issues Report in accordance with the recommendations of the Registration Abuse Policies Working Group [LINK], and Whereas, a Preliminary Issue Report was published on 27 May 2011 [LINK] and series of webinars and workshops were held soliciting public comment to allow for the ICANN community to provide feedback on the analysis and recommendations contained therein, and Whereas, a Final Issue Report was published on 3 October 2011 [LINK] in which ICANN staff recommended the GNSO Council consider the "perspective of the majority of the ICANN community, and the advice of the Government Advisory Committee (GAC), and the At-Large Advisory Committee" and that "a PDP be delayed until after the New gTLD Uniform Rapid Suspension System (URS) has been in operation for at least eighteen months. . . [to] allow the policy process to be informed by data regarding the effectiveness of the URS, which was modeled on the UDRP, to address the problem of cybersquatting." RESOLVED, that the GNSO approved the initiation of a PDP and the establishment of a Working Group on recommendation #7 of the IRTP Part B Working Group concerning the requirement to lock a domain name subject to UDRP proceedings, which the GNSO Council at its meeting on 22 June 2011 received and agreed to consider when it takes up consideration of the Final Issue Report on the Current State of the UDRP. RESOLVED further, the GNSO Council requests a new a new Issue Report on the current state of all rights protection mechanisms implemented for both existing and new gTLDs, including but not limited to, the UDRP and URS, should be delivered to the GNSO Council by no later than eighteen (18) months following the delegation and launch of the first new gTLD.

All, please find attached a motion being put forward for voting on at our next Council meeting. The UDRP review issue is a difficult and contentious one, but I hope the draft motion will provide us with a framework and useful starting point from which to discuss the matter. Comments and discussions and, naturally, a second, would be most welcome. I'm working off an unfamiliar computer in an airport so please forgive any formatting or other technical errors with the attachment. Thanks and cheers Mary

by Stéphane Van Gelder Nov. 7, 2011

Nov. 7, 2011

Councillors, Please see the email from Leslie Cowley below. As Wolf has kindly volunteered to lead our agenda organizational efforts for Costa Rica, I have indicated to Leslie that he would be the main contact person for the ccNSO in this effort. I also wanted to make sure the Council was aware of these initiatives to strengthen the cooperation between the ccNSO and us. Judging from our recent joint meeting conversations, this is clearly something that both SOs find useful so it's great that this is being worked on. Please contact Wolf or myself if you have any suggestions or comments on our interactions with the ccNSO.
