by Marika Konings 06 Jul '17

06 Jul '17

As mentioned during the wrap-up session, please note that the 1 September date for new councilors is a target date. As incoming Council members are now also eligible for nomination as Council chair, the sooner these incoming members are known, the more time the houses have to consider the different candidates. It is of course up to each SG/C to set the timetable for their respective Council seat elections. Best regards, Marika From: <council-bounces(a)gnso.icann.org> on behalf of Nathalie Peregrine <nathalie.peregrine(a)icann.org> Date: Thursday, July 6, 2017 at 13:15 To: "council(a)gnso.icann.org" <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Cc: "gnso-secs(a)icann.org" <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Subject: [council] GNSO Chair election timeline and incoming councilors Dear all, Please see attached the timeline for the GNSO Chair nomination open date and election.

Consent Agenda (5 mins) * Confirmation of James Bladel as the GNSO Representative to the Empowered Community Administration (see https://community.icann.org/x/DWfwAw) Following the adoption of the recommendations of the GNSO Standing Selection Committee during ICANN60, the GNSO Council leadership met and agreed that James Bladel would serve as the GNSO representative to the Empowered Community Administration until the end of his term at ICANN61. Following the adoption of this item, the GNSO Secretariat is requested to communicate this decision to the ICANN Secretary and the Empowered Community Administration. Item 4: COUNCIL VOTE – Proposed Fundamental Bylaw Changes (15 minutes) On 23 May 2017, the ICANN organization sent a notice<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> to the Empowered Community (EC) that the ICANN Board has approved<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…> amendments to ICANN’s Fundamental Bylaws to move the Board Governance Committee’s reconsideration responsibilities to another Board Committee. This notice triggered the Bylaws-mandated process according to which the EC is to consider whether to approve the amendments before they can go into effect. On 27 June 2017 at ICANN59, the first Community Forum under the revised ICANN Bylaws, discussed the proposal, where the EC came together to exercise one of the EC's new powers under the revised ICANN Bylaws. Here, the Council will vote whether to adopt the Fundamental Bylaw change. 4.1 – Presentation of motion<https://community.icann.org/x/DWfwAw> (James Bladel) 4.2 – Council Discussion 4.3 – Council vote (voting threshold: simple majority) [PLACEHOLDER] Item 5: COUNCIL VOTE – Petition for a Rejection Action of the FY18 Operating Plan and Budget On 24 June 2017, the ICANN Board adopted ICANN's FY18 Operating Plan and Budget, the FY18 IANA Budget, and updates to the Five-Year Operating Plan. Under ICANN's post-IANA Stewardship Transition Bylaws<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en>, the Empowered Community has the ability to consider and, if they choose, initiate a rejection action as outlined in Annex D, article 2 of the ICANN Bylaws within 21 days following notification of the adoption by the FY18 Operating Plan and Budget by the ICANN Board. The [placeholder community name] has submitted a petition for a rejection action [placeholder aspect of the budget] because of [reasons]. Here, the Council will vote whether it supports the petition for a rejection action concerning the FY18 Operating Plan and Budget. 5.1 – Presentation of motion (TBD) 5.2 – Council Discussion 5.3 – Council vote (voting threshold: simple majority) Item 6. COUNCIL VOTE – Approval of GNSO Council Review of the GAC Communique from Johannesburg (10 minutes) The GNSO Council has adopted the practice of providing feedback to the ICANN Board on matters pertaining to gTLD policy, where the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) has included advice on such matters as part of a GAC Communique issued at each ICANN Public Meeting. Following the issuance of the GAC Johannesburg Communique (https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/27132037/GAC%20ICANN59%20Comm…), a team of Councilors and the current GNSO Liaison to the GAC agreed to prepare an initial draft of possible GNSO Council input to the Board for Council consideration. This draft was circulated to the Council mailing list on [date] (Link to draft). Here the Council will discuss the draft Council feedback, and vote on whether or not to approve it for transmission to the ICANN Board. 6.1 – Presentation of motion<https://community.icann.org/x/DWfwAw> (James Bladel) 6.2 – Council discussion 6.3 – Council vote (voting threshold: simple majority) Item 7: COUNCIL Vote – Next steps in relation to Charter for the Cross Community Working Group on Internet Governance (20 minutes) At ICANN57 in Hyderabad in November 2016, the GNSO Council approved a motion conditioning the future participation of the GNSO as a Chartering Organization of the CCWG on Internet Governance (CCWG-IG) upon a comprehensive review of the group’s Charter by the CCWG-IG, in accordance with the Framework of Uniform Principles for CCWGs that had been adopted recently by the ccNSO and GNSO Councils (http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/uniform-framework-principles-recommendation…). In its resolution, the GNSO Council had noted that the CCWG-IG’s future work is expected to be subject to a clear work plan, with regular updates and clear deliverables, and had requested that, by ICANN58, the CCWG-IG was to report on its findings, which report may include a revised charter, and the CCWG-IG was to also consider whether it will be preferable to reconstitute the group under a new structure (https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions - 20161107-3<https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20161107-3>). The CCWG-IG provided a written report on its 2016 activity and a draft revised Charter for the GNSO Council’s consideration on 10th March 2017 (http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2017-March/019816.html) At its Public Meeting at ICANN58 in Copenhagen on 15 March 2017 and its joint meeting with the ccNSO Council on 13 March 2017, the Council engaged in a discussion with the CCWG-IG co-chairs regarding the group’s reports. At the GNSO Council’s call on 18 May 2017, the Council continued its discussion of the topic as well as during ICANN59 during which it became clear that although there is strong support to continue the GNSO’s involvement in Internet Governance, a CCWG is not considered the appropriate vehicle for such involvement.. Here the Council will consider the motion that has been submitted in relation to this topic. 7.1 – Presentation of motion<https://community.icann.org/x/DWfwAw> (Keith Drazek) 7.2 – Council discussion 7.3 – Council vote (voting threshold: simple majority) Item 8. COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Possible Change to the Name of the GNSO (10 minutes) Some in the community have noted that as domain names are available globally, the term “generic” has certain meanings to different parts of the ICANN community, that the usage of “generic” to describe a .brand is potentially confusing, and among other reasons, that it might make sense to substitute the word “Generic” for “Global” in Generic Names Supporting Organization. Here, the GNSO Council will consider whether a change of this nature should be considered and if so, discuss next steps to effectuate that change. 8.1 – Introduction of topic (Paul McGrady) 8.2 - Council discussion 8.3 – Next steps Item 9: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Cross Community Working Group on the Use of Country and Territory Names (15 minutes) On 26 March 2014, the GNSO Council resolved to approve the charter for the Cross Community Working Group on the Use of Country and Territory Names (CWG-UCTN). The purpose of the CWG-UCTN was to assess the feasibility of developing a harmonized framework for the use of country and territory names that could be applicable across the respective Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees. On 24 February, the CWG-UCTN published its Interim Report for public comment. While the CWG-UCTN considered two and three-character country codes, it was determined that consensus was not feasible; the group did not consider full country and territory names. The CWG-UCTN therefore recommended that the CWG be closed, that policy efforts within the community should be consolidated, and that future work must be fully inclusive of the community. As a Chartering Organization, the GNSO is expected to consider the CWG-UCTN’s Final Report<https://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/ccwg-ctn-final-paper-15jun17-en.pdf> and determine next steps. Here, the Council will discuss the Final Report and its recommendations and consider next steps (Letter from CWG UCTN co-Chairs to GNSO and ccNSO Chairs 25 June 2017<https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/correspondence>). 9.1 – Update on current status (Heather Forrest) 9.2 – Council discussion 9.3 – Next steps Item 10: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – PLANNING FOR ICANN60 (10 minutes) During ICANN59, the proposed block schedule for ICANN60 was shared (https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/icann60-draft-prelim-block-schedule-27jun1…) – note that further updates are expected to be based on input received from the SO/AC Planning Committee). Based on requests received to date from the different GNSO PDP WGs, CCWGs and WGs, the Council leadership has put together a draft GNSO schedule for Council input and review. Following Council review, this draft GNSO schedule will be shared with the GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies to facilitate their planning and scheduling. 10.1 - Update on planning for ICANN60 (Council leadership) 10.2 – Council discussion 10.3 – Next steps Item 11: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (5 minutes) 10.1 – AOB ________________________________ Appendix 1: GNSO Council Voting Thresholds (ICANN Bylaws, Article 11, Section 11.3(i)) See https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article11.

Re: [council] MOTION - GNSO Review of GAC Johannesburg Communique
by Nathalie Peregrine 03 Jul '17

03 Jul '17

Dear James, Thank you, the motion has been posted on the corresponding wiki page: https://community.icann.org/x/DWfwAw Kind regards, Nathalie From: <council-bounces(a)gnso.icann.org> on behalf of James Bladel <jbladel(a)godaddy.com> Date: Monday, July 3, 2017 at 11:09 PM To: "council(a)gnso.icann.org" <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Subject: [council] MOTION - GNSO Review of GAC Johannesburg Communique Councilors – Attached and copied below, please find a motion for consideration during our 13 JUL meeting, accepting the GNSO Review of the GAC’s Johannesburg Communique. This is a placeholder motion. I know the team working on this document is still traveling and/or on holiday, but given that there was only one item in the Communique that impacted the GNSO, I’ve asked the team to try and have the response ready for our review by the end of the week, if possible. Thank you, J. --------------------- Adoption of the GNSO Review of GAC Communiqué for submission to the ICANN Board Whereas, 1. The Governmental Advisory Committee advises the ICANN Board on issues of public policy, and especially where there may be an interaction between ICANN's activities or policies and national laws or international agreements. It usually does so as part of a Communiqué, which is published towards the end of every ICANN meeting. 2. The GNSO is responsible for developing and recommending to the ICANN Board substantive policies relating to generic top-level domains. 3. The GNSO has expressed a desire to provide feedback to the ICANN Board on issues in the GAC Communiqué as these relate to generic top-level domains to inform the ICANN Board as well as the broader community of past, present or future gTLD policy activities that may directly or indirectly relate to advice provided by the GAC. 4. The GNSO hopes that the input provided through its review of the GAC Communiqué will further enhance the co-ordination and promote the sharing of information on gTLD related policy activities between the GAC, Board and the GNSO. Resolved, 1. The GNSO Council adopts the GNSO Review of Johannesburg GAC Communiqué (see [include link]) and requests that the GNSO Council Chair communicate the GNSO Review of the Johannesburg GAC Communiqué to the ICANN Board. 2. The GNSO Council requests that the GNSO Council Chair also informs the GAC Chair of the communication between the GNSO Council and the ICANN Board.
