FW: Updated motion for IGO Curative Rights charter
by Jonathan Robinson 25 Jun '14

25 Jun '14

All, To take into account the new edits/additions that have been proposed by the NCSG, I suggest (with acknowledged assistance from Policy Staff) that the motion for the Curative Rights Protection PDP charter be augmented as below (additions in bold). Thomas, as the second, please confirm acceptance. Thanks, Jonathan -- WHEREAS: 1. The GNSO Council has resolved (see <http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201406> http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201406) to undertake a GNSO policy development process (PDP) to explore possible amendments to the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and the Uniform Rapid Suspension procedure (URS) so as to enable International Governmental Organizations (IGOs) and International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs) to access and use curative rights protection mechanisms; 2. The GNSO Council has reviewed the draft Working Group Charter appended as Annex 3 to the Final Issue Report (see <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/igo-ingo-crp-access-charter-25may14-en.pdf> http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/igo-ingo-crp-access-charter-25may14-en.pdf) which was delivered to the GNSO Council on 25 May 2014, and the amendments proposed thereto on 24 June 2014 by the Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group (see <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/igo-ingo-crp-access-charter-24jun14-en.pdf> http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/igo-ingo-crp-access-charter-24jun14-en.pdf); RESOLVED: 1. The GNSO Council approves the Charter as amended by the 24 June 2014 proposals and appoints ___________ as the GNSO Council liaison to the IGO-INGO Curative Rights Protection PDP Working Group (WG); 2. The GNSO Council directs ICANN staff to issue a call for volunteers for the PDP WG no later than seven days after the approval of this motion; and 3. Until such time as the WG selects a chair for the WG and that chair is confirmed by the GNSO Council, the GNSO Council liaison to the WG shall serve as the interim chair.

FW: Thursday Session on Enhancing ICANN's accountability
by Jonathan Robinson 25 Jun '14

25 Jun '14

All, We touched on this today. It seems that we could do with a volunteer or two to contribute to Thursday's panel. When I raised this at the end of our meeting with the ICANN Board, Avri & James both approached me indicated that they have ATRT experience and would be willing to do so. Any concerns or inputs? Jonathan From: Jamie Hedlund [mailto:jamie.hedlund@icann.org] Sent: 19 June 2014 00:50 To: Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond; Louie Lee; Byron Holland; Jonathan Robinson; heather.dryden(a)ic.gc.ca; Lars-Johan Liman; Patrick Falstrom Subject: Thursday Session on Enhancing ICANN's accountability All, On Thursday, June 26 at 10:30-12:30, there will a session on Enhancing ICANN Accountability in light of the NTIA IANA Stewardship Transition. The purpose of this session is to advance the community dialogue on this important subject. To help make it as informative, interactive and constructive as possible, we propose the following structure: * Introduction and review of community input received in London - Theresa Swinehart * Overview of existing ICANN accountability mechanisms - Steve Crocker * Expert presentation on accountability and possible questions for community consideration - Jan Aart Scholte <http://www.globalstudies.gu.se/english/about-us/staff?languageId=100001&use rId=xsjana> , Professor, School of Global Studies, Gothenborg, Sweden * Open mike for community input and dialogue with a panel comprised of SO and AC representatives, Steve Crocker, Prof. Scholte and past members of ATRT reviews (Larry Strickling, Fiona Asonga and David Conrad). The dialogue would be moderated by Chris Disspain. Our request to you as SO and AC leaders is to designate one or more representatives from your communities to participate on the panel described above. The representatives would not be expected to make any presentations or prepare any remarks. Rather, the panelists would be there to respond or react to open mike input that is relevant to the panelist's experience or knowledge. Chris would help keep the discussion focused on the subject of enhancing ICANN's accountability in light of the NTIA IANA stewardship transition. He would also facilitate the dialogue between the community and the panelists. This interactive dialogue has the potential to more interesting, informative and constructive than simply collecting input from speakers at the open mike. Please let us know at your earliest convenience if you are willing to designate a representative(s) from your community to sit on the panel. If you have any questions or feedback on the proposed approach to this session, please send those to us as well. Thank you for considering this proposal. Best, Jamie

Lori, again, tx you! What do you think of the edits? Hopefully, I extended and continued your thoughts... : Dear Avri and Kathy, Here is my attempt at a short, hopefully not too debatable, amendment to the charter. My edits and comments are in redline form. I tried to keep it very simple given the issue of time. I put 2 new bullet points before the final bullet point under “The WG should also include the following additional topics in its deliberations:” I specifically referenced the Nice Classification system as a method of mission differentiation as an optional clause. My thoughts are to leave it out but I wanted to surface the option to the group instead of just dismissing it out of hand. Nice has a lot of problems but it is the document that drives international classification and may be worth referencing. I will leave that up to you. / / I believe that this working group should move forward and incorporate the principles that we discussed yesterday. Perhaps these few lines will do the trick? Please let me know if I can help further. *Explore ways to make excellent teaching the reality in every classroom. Attend the ASCD Conference on Teaching Excellence, June 27–29, in Dallas, Tex.

Fwd: FW: Draft CRP WG Charter - 25 May 2014
by Maria Farrell 24 Jun '14

24 Jun '14

Dear Council colleagues, I'm circulating an updated document with proposed changes to the IGO/INGO Curative Rights Protection PDP draft Charter. The only change in this doc is marked in blue track changes version and is the following: "*Conduct research on the number and list of INGOs included on the United Nations list of non-governmental organizations in consultative status with the Economic and Social Council. "* It is to change the list referred to to be the EcoSoc list, not the DPI one, for consistency. All the best, Maria

EWG Report on gTLD Directory Services
by Bret Fausett 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

I appreciate that we have a very full agenda for Wednesday’s meeting, which is slotted into an impossibly short time two-hour time slot, but I’d like us to briefly reflect on the report from the Expert Working Group on gTLD Directory Services (EWG), https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=40175189, during the Item 2 Section of the Agenda ("Review focus areas and provide updates on specific key themes / topics. Include review of Projects List and Action List"). Based on our discussion over the weekend and the presentations by the EWG here in London, it seems clear that the Council eventually will be asked to look at this report and possibly initiate a policy development process centered on it. I don’t think we should take any action here in London, but perhaps we can use the time between this meeting and the next to review the report, consult with our constituencies, and think about putting together a drafting committee to prepare options for the Council about possible next steps. I know we had a presentation on this in Sunday’s session, but now we should reflect on where this goes from here. I thought I would raise it now, so we can give it some thought before the Council meeting. This ought to be a significant undertaking, and I think we should consider whether, how and when it fits into our current work schedule.

Regarding Observer status for PDP WGs and the fellowship Program
by Gabriela Szlak 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

Dear all, Thanks a lot Marika for yesterday´s presentation on GNSO PDP improvementes. I did not want to add more time to our meeting yesterday as we were late but I would like to suggest something (on my personal capacity as I did not discuss this yet) regarding the proposed "observer status" for WGs: I believe we can work together with the *Fellowship program*, and maybe propose to add as part of the fellowship experience, the need to participate in at least one working group *as observer* to be elegible for subsequent rounds of the fellowship program (and why not report to the other fellows on the experience... or something in that line that would also offer for us feedback from newcomers to be able to use to keep improving). Just thinking while writing... As fellows, we are asked to do a report on the fellowship experience, after each meeting, to be elegible for next rounds, so this can be easily added to a "package" of what is currently required. I believe this experience of being an observer in a working group will make more tangible part of the learning process for the fellows and will benefit the community in the process. (with feedback from newcomers to help us improve + potential new valuable members for future pool of active participants) We did a special session with fellows in Singapore together with Amr on PDP Wgs participation, and many fellows showed interest in the working groups. I am confident that offering to them the chance to be an observer might be well received and productive in terms of capacity building and engagement. Just to share the current impact of the Fellowship Program in terms of engaged participants, here are some statistics; 19 Fellows in GAC including Vice Chair Tracy Hackshaw, At Large now has a Fellow Chair and Vice Chair of APRALO: Siranush Vardanyan and Ali Almeshal, ALAC members Tijani BenJamma, Fatima Canbronero, ALAC member and ccNSO Liaison to ALAC Maureen Hilyard, GNSO Council Gabi Szlak (BC) Amr Elsadr, Magaly Pazello (NCUC,) Nom Com appointees to ALAC Leon Sanchez and Beran Gillan, ccNSO appointee Celia Lerman, NCUC members Marilia Maciel, Magaly Pazello, Shahzad Ahmad, Jahangir Hossain (NPOC as well), Joao Carlos Rebello Caribe, Imran Ahmed Shah, Amr Elsadr, Baudouin Schombe, Blaise Arbouet, Dwi Elfrida Martina, Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Fouad Bajwa, Ganeswar Sahoo, George Asare Sakyi, Grace N Mutung’u, Hanen Idoudi, Hago Elteraifi Mohamed Dafalla, Hassan Zaheer, Kadian Alicia Davis, Kashif Akram, Kinfemicheal Yilma Desta, Lyndel McDonald, Mamadou LO, Mohab Altlaity, Naveed Ul Haq, Oksana Prykhodko, Paramanandan, Pascal Bekono, Patricia Senghor, Peters Osawaru Omoragbon, Philip Adar, Roxana Radu, Salieu Taal, Seun Ojedeji, Shefqet Meda, Virginia (Ginger) Paque, Walid Al-Saqaf, Walusungu Gondwe, Yuanyuan Guan (Leslie)Wisdom Kwasi Donkor, Wilson Abigaba as well as members of the ccNSO.

Members / Volunteers - IANA Stewardship Transition & ICANN Accountability
by Jonathan Robinson 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

All, IMPORTANT - Members / Volunteers - IANA Stewardship Transition & ICANN Accountability It seems we have universal agreement on the link between IANA Stewardship Transition & ICANN Accountability. In order to support these two critical and closely linked areas of work, we need three sets of volunteers from the GNSO as follows: GNSO / CCNSO initiated CWG on Transition of NTIA's Stewardship of the IANA Functions . Up to 4 participants (from the GNSO) for the Charter Drafting Team ASAP . Logically, this seems to be 1 per SG . There is an informal gathering of the participants (in so far as they already exist) today at 18h00 in Sovereign (or Cadogan if required) Coordination Group on Transition of NTIA's Stewardship of the IANA Functions . https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/process-next-steps-2014-06-06-en . ICANN is seeking 5 participants from the GNSO including 2 from the Registries . Logically, and I believe we are agreed, this seems to be 1 per SG (excluding Registries SG) Enhancing ICANN Accountability . https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/enhancing-accountability-2014-05-06-en . It has been suggested that ICANN may seek 4 participants from the GNSO but this is not confirmed . Public comment (reply period) open until 27 June 2014 . Avri Doria (NCPH / NCSG) and James Bladel (CPH / RrSG) to participate in panel / community session to discuss accountability on Thursday 26 June, 2014 There may or may not be overlap between the above participants. I propose that the Council acts as co-ordinator. I do not propose that we apply any (GNSO Council) selection process but am mindful of the desirability of diversity. Also, I am cognisant that the Council has a management / coordination role to play here in order to ensure that channels of communication are well maintained and bottom-up processes are followed. Please can you communicate and work with / within your respective SGs to produce these names and provide them to the GNSO Secretariat as soon as possible. Many thanks, Jonathan Jonathan Robinson Chair ICANN GNSO Council <mailto:jonathan.robinson@ipracon.com> jonathan.robinson(a)ipracon.com Tel: +44 (0)20 7993 6103 skype: jonathan.m.r
