FW: For your review - proposed charter new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG
by James M. Bladel 01 Oct '16

01 Oct '16

Councilors - See message below, sent on behalf of the gTLD Auction Proceeds Charter Drafting Team. Their Draft Charter for a proposed CCWG is attached, and they are requesting feedback by 30 September. If time allows, lets plan to add this as a discussion point for our next call (29 SEP). Thank you, J. From: Marika Konings <marika.konings(a)icann.org<mailto:marika.konings@icann.org>> Date: Tuesday, September 13, 2016 at 12:41 Subject: For your review - proposed charter new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG Sending on behalf of Jonathan Robinson, new gTLD Auction Proceeds Drafting Team Chair & Alan Greenberg, DT Vice-Chair: Dear SO/AC Chairs, On behalf of the new gTLD Auction Proceeds Drafting Team (DT), we are delighted to submit to you and your respective SO/ACs, the proposed charter for a Cross-Community Working Group on new gTLD Auction Proceeds. As you may recall, representatives of all ICANN SO/ACs, apart from the ccNSO (which decided not to take part in the DT effort), participated in the DT deliberations (see https://community.icann.org/x/AR_AAw for DT members). This proposed charter is the result of extensive input and deliberations, including careful review of input that was received as part of the cross-community session at ICANN 56 in Helsinki (see https://community.icann.org/x/fgmbAw) and we believe it now represents a careful balance between the different viewpoints and perspectives, including from both the DT Members and the ICANN Board liaisons to the DT. As such, the DT would like to request you review the proposed charter with this careful balance in mind and only flag to the DT any pertinent issues that would prevent your respective SO/AC from adopting this charter. We would like to request you highlight such pertinent issues by 30 September 2016 at the latest, including an indication of when you anticipate your respective SO/AC to be in a position to consider the charter for adoption following 30 September, provided that no pertinent issues have been identified by any of the ICANN SO/ACs. Of course, should you have any clarifying questions, please do not hesitate to respond to this message. The DT looks forward to receiving your feedback. Best wishes, Jonathan Robinson, DT Chair & Alan Greenberg, DT Vice-Chair

FW: IPC Support for Letter of Instruction regarding IANA IPR
by James M. Bladel 01 Oct '16

01 Oct '16

Councilors – Please see the note below from Greg Shatan on behalf of the IPC, and also some important context on the CWG Instruction Letter. Thank you, J. From: Greg Shatan <gregshatanipc(a)gmail.com> Date: Friday, September 30, 2016 at 17:16 To: "James M. Bladel" <jbladel(a)godaddy.com>, Heather Forrest <Heather.Forrest(a)acu.edu.au>, "Donna Austin (Donna.Austin(a)neustar.biz)" <Donna.Austin(a)neustar.biz>, Glen de Saint Géry <glen(a)icann.org> Cc: Kiran Malancharuvil <Kiran.Malancharuvil(a)markmonitor.com>, Lori Schulman <lschulman(a)inta.org>, "Paul McGrady (Policy)" <policy(a)paulmcgrady.com>, "Steven J. Metalitz" <met(a)msk.com>, "Vayra, Fabricio (Perkins Coie)" <FVayra(a)perkinscoie.com> Subject: IPC Support for Letter of Instruction regarding IANA IPR James, On behalf of the IPC, I would like to convey to you and to the GNSO Council that the IPC supports GNSO inclusion in the Letter of Instruction and responding "yes" to the CWG Co-Chairs. Speaking as a GNSO-appointed member of the CWG and as a member of the IANA IPR collaborative team that worked with the numbers and protocol parameters communities to complete this aspect of transition planning and implementation: I'd like to clarify the limited but significant role that this Letter plays. The Letter of Instruction directs ICANN to sign the Community Agreement, one of several agreements that are part of the IANA IPR transfer, which in turn is part of the IANA transition. The Community Agreement gives the three operational communities oversight of the IETF Trust, as the new owner of the IANA IPR. As the Names Community has no legal entity to act on its behalf, ICANN is being directed to do so in this Letter, which also constrains ICANN from taking other actions that might seem possible based on having its signature on the agreement. (More simply put, ICANN is acting as the Names Community's avatar.) This small act by the GNSO further smooths the way for the IANA transition. Since the request to enjoin the IANA transition in federal court in Texas has been DENIED, now is the time to move forward. Best regards, Greg Shatan IPC President

These agreements are: - IANA IPR Assignment Agreement: This agreement transfers the IPR from ICANN to the IETF Trust. - 3 IANA IPR License Agreements (one each for the names, numbers, and protocol parameters IANA services.): These agreements allows for the IANA functions operator to use the IPR. - IANA - IPR Community Agreement: This agreement explains the rights and obligations of the IETF Trust and each operational community as regards the IPR. After a public comment period last month, the agreements have been finalized and are ready to be executed. One of the decisions that the CWG had to make as part of the work was to identify who would be the signatory of the Community Agreement on behalf of the Naming Community. The decision made by the group, with input from CWG external counsel, was to ask ICANN to play that role. An instruction letter has been assembled for that purpose. The Instruction Letter says: "This letter confirms the request of the Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions (“CWG”) for the benefit of those of its listed chartering organizations – the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (“ccNSO”), the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (“SSAC”), the Generic Names Supporting Organization (“GNSO”), the At Large Advisory Committee (“ALAC”) and the Governmental Advisory Committee (“GAC”) – that have affirmed or hereafter affirm in writing that they agree to be included herein (each a “Consenting SO/AC” and collectively, the “Names Community”) that ICANN serve as the signatory for the Names Community under the Community Agreement." This makes reference to the COs affirming in writing that they agree to be included in the instruction letter as a consenting SO/AC. As ICANN might formally reach out to us to obtain confirmation that one or more COs have agreed to be a consenting SO/AC, we hereby kindly ask that you provide such a written confirmation as a matter of urgency by replying to this email, preferably on or before September 30th, 2016, so that the signing of the agreement may proceed as planned.

Council Resolutions Thursday 29 September 2016
by Glen de Saint Géry 30 Sep '16

30 Sep '16

Dear Councillors, Please find below the resolutions the Council adopted at its meeting on Thursday 29 September 2016. 1 GNSO Validation of CCWG-Accountability Budget Request WHEREAS, 1. Per its Charter, the Project Cost Support Team (PCST) has supported the CCWG-Accountability in developing a draft budget and cost-control processes for the CCWG-Accountability activities for FY17, and has also developed a historical analysis of all the transition costs to date (see https://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/pdfpklU5q6Ojg.pdf). 2. The CCWG-Accountability FY17 budget was presented at its plenary meeting of June 21st and approved for transmission to the Chartering Organizations for validation as per the process agreed with the PCST. This request for validation was received on 23 June. 3. Following review and discussion during ICANN56, the GNSO Council requested a webinar on this topic which was held on 23 August (see transcript at https://gnso.icann.org/en/meetings/transcript-ccwg-accountability-webinar-2…, recording at http://audio.icann.org/gnso/gnso-ccwg-accountability-webinar-23aug16-en.mp3 and AC recording at https://icann.adobeconnect.com/p8fu99qpt7d/). 4. The GNSO Council notes that many members of the GNSO community have expressed the view that the projected budget does not likely support revisiting the topic of the jurisdiction of ICANN's organization in that such exploration would likely require substantial independent legal advice on alternative jurisdictions and their potential impact on the text and structure of ICANN's Bylaws. 5. The GNSO Council has discussed and reviewed all the relevant materials. RESOLVED, 1. The GNSO Council hereby accepts the proposed CCWG-Accountability FY17 budget, as well as the cost-control processes presented in conjunction with the CCWG budget, expects the working groups to be restrained and judicious in their use of outside legal assistance, and believes that the Legal Committee should exercise reasonable and effective controls in evaluating requests for outside legal assistance and should approve them only when deemed essential to assist a working group to fully and objectively understand and develop a particular course of action for which the group has reached a substantial degree of consensus and requires legal advice on its risks and feasibility. 2. The GNSO Council expects to receive regular updates on actual expenditures as tracked against this adopted budget, and reserves the right to provide further input on the budget allocation in relation to the CCWG-Accountability related activities. 3. The GNSO Council expects ICANN staff, including its office of General Counsel, to provide the assistance requested by the CCWG and its working groups in an expeditious, comprehensive, and unbiased manner. 4. The GNSO Council expects the CCWG-Accountability and staff to work within the constraints of this approved budget, and that excess costs or requests for additional funding beyond said budget should be recommended by the Legal Committee only when deemed essential to completion of the CCWG's work and objectives. . 5. It is the position of the GNSO Council that revisiting the jurisdiction or organization of the ICANN legal entity, as established by CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 1, would not likely be supported by this projected budget and, further, that such inquiry should not be undertaken at this time because the new accountability measures are all premised and dependent on California jurisdiction for their effective operation, and any near-term changes in organizational jurisdiction could be extremely destabilizing for ICANN and its community. 6. The GNSO Council requests the GNSO Secretariat to communicate this resolution to the CCWG-Accountability Chairs, and to the office of the ICANN CFO. Voting results<https://gnso.icann.org/en/meetings/gnso-council-motion-recorder-29sep16-en.…> 2. Interim appointment of the GNSO Representative on the Empowered Community Administration WHEREAS 1. As stated in Section 1.1(a) of Article 6 of the new ICANN Bylaws, concerning the composition and organization of the Empowered Community (EC), "The Empowered Community ("EC") shall be a nonprofit association formed under the laws of the State of California consisting of the ASO, the ccNSO, the GNSO, the ALAC and the GAC (each a "Decisional Participant" or "associate," and collectively, the "Decisional Participants")." 2. The sole purpose of the EC is to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under ICANN's Articles of Incorporation and the ICANN Bylaws, and the EC shall have no other powers or rights except as expressly provided in the ICANN Bylaws. The EC may only act as provided in these Bylaws. Any act of the EC that is not in accordance with these Bylaws shall not be effective. 3. As outlined in section 6.3 of the new ICANN Bylaws, the GNSO, as a Decisional Participant, shall act through its respective chair or such other person as may be designated by the GNSO (collectively, such persons from all communities are the "EC Administration"). Each Decisional Participant shall deliver annually a written certification from its chair or co-chairs to the ICANN Secretary designating the individual who shall represent the Decisional Participant on the EC Administration. 4. The GNSO created a Drafting Team (DT) on 30 June 2016 to identify the GNSO's new rights and obligations, and work with ICANN staff to prepare an implementation plan to address any needed changes by 30 September (see http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions - 201606). RESOLVED 1. The GNSO Council hereby confirms that the GNSO Chair (currently James Bladel) will represent the GNSO as the Decisional Participant on the Empowered Community Administration on an interim basis. 2. The GNSO representative shall act solely as directed by the GNSO Council in accordance with the ICANN Bylaws and other related GNSO Operating Procedures. 3. Within three months after the completion of the work of the GNSO Rights & Obligations under Revised ICANN Bylaws Drafting Team and adoption of its recommendations by the GNSO Council, the GNSO is expected to finalize its decision on the appointment of the person designated to represent the GNSO as the Decisional Participant on the Empowered Community Administration and will communicate this accordingly to the ICANN Secretary. 4. The GNSO Council requests the GNSO Secretariat to communicate this decision to the ICANN Secretary which will serve as the required written certification from the GNSO Chair designating the individual who shall represent the Decisional Participant on the EC Administration.
