Call for Volunteers: Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team
by Andrea Glandon 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

Dear Council Members, As you may be aware, ICANN Org delivered the most recent version of the Transfer Policy Status Report (TPSR) to the GNSO Council on 22 April 2019. ICANN Org delivered the TPSR pursuant to Recommendation 18 of the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) Part D PDP Working Group, which provides, “[t]he Working Group recommends that contracted parties and ICANN should start to gather data and other relevant information that will help inform a future IRTP review team in its efforts.” The TPSR provides details on the noted purposes of the Transfer Policy (formerly known as the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP)), an overview of the domain name transfer process, the impact of the Temporary Specification and the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) on the Transfer Policy, metrics related to the Transfer Policy, and a summary of the public comments and survey responses to the published TPSR. The GNSO Operating Procedures do not prescribe specific steps to be taken in response to a Policy Status Report. As this is the first such review activity, the Council is able to consider a range of options to determine the best path forward and is now looking for assistance in scoping further work on the Transfer Policy review effort. The GNSO Council agreed to launch a call for volunteers for a Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team, which will be comprised of interested and knowledgeable GNSO Members that will advise the GNSO Council by providing recommendations on the following: * approach to the review (for example, by initiating a new PDP); * composition of the review team or PDP working group, and * scope of the review and future policy work related to the Transfer Policy. As noted in the TPSR, there have been many technical and policy developments since the Transfer Policy first came into effect. To that end, some Council members have noted the Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team may choose to consider a methodology for further work on the Transfer Policy in a broader context. Some have also suggested that it may be timely to approach the Transfer Policy from a clean slate perspective – instead of trying to fix previously-identified issues, it might be worth rethinking the Transfer Policy as a whole by starting with a clean slate. Additionally, some have suggested utilizing some of the GNSO PDP 3.0<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/pdp-imple…> Improvements when scoping and chartering the eventual policy work, in whatever form it takes. The Council is now calling for volunteers who are GNSO members interested in joining the Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team. As noted above, the GNSO Council is looking for volunteers who possess policy and/or technical expertise on the Transfer Policy. The Transfer Policy Scoping Team is expected to have bi-weekly teleconferences for one hour each. Between meetings, the Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team may work using collaborative tools. The expected time commitment is estimated to be approximately 2-3 hours every week, and the GNSO Council expects to receive guidance from the Scoping Team by February 2020. Any candidates interested in participating should fill out the following form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc28A9JFy5zdwEgj94MAbUb2ILZTK4BVEN…> by Friday, 18 October 2019. The response should include a link to an up-to-date Statement of Interest<https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/New+SOIs>. If you have any questions or concerns about this effort, please let us know as soon as possible. With best regards, Keith Drazek, Pam Little and Rafik Dammak, GNSO Council Chair and Vice-Chairs On behalf of GNSO Council Leadership

FW: Call for volunteers - Global Public Interest Framework consultation
by Marie Pattullo 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

Dear all, I know I’m way too late to sign up as a volunteer here, but I would be grateful if you could factor in the BC’s view on the GPI: The BC would prefer a specific definition of GPI as a foundation for the framework. In our prior comments, the BC has offered this definition for “Global Public Interest” in the context of ICANN’s mission, and consistent with our interests. We said “public interest” in the ICANN context should be narrowly defined to fit the limited scope of ICANN’s mission. To that end, The BC has said that public interest should be measured in terms of the integrity and availability of registrations and resolutions. The 'public' part of public interest is concerned more with users and registrants than with contracted parties and others who are deeply involved at ICANN. And the public interest in ICANN decisions is broader than just a secure and stable DNS. Namely, users and registrants want ICANN to make sure the DNS delivers two essential and measurable qualities: Availability and Integrity of Registrations and Resolutions Availability of the DNS is critical for global users who increasingly rely on the Internet for information, communications, and commerce. Domain name resolutions need to be available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from anywhere on the globe. Availability also means being able to use any language and any script for both generic and country-code domains and email addresses. Availability can also apply to domain names sought by registrants: will domains in new gTLDs be available to the public, or will they be captured by insiders? That kind of availability should also be part of the public interest test for ICANN decisions. Integrity of the DNS is vital to registrants and end-users of the Internet. Registrants rely upon the integrity of domain name registration to ensure that their identities are not misrepresented or misappropriated. E-commerce and Internet financial transactions absolutely require integrity in resolution of domain names and secure delivery of encrypted data. Internet users depend upon the integrity of domain name services to provide accurate and authentic results when they look up a website or send an email. Integrity is undermined by deceptive practices such as redirecting users to fraudulent websites or providing false information about the true owner of a web domain. This term is too important to leave undefined or let a few individuals define it to fit their own agenda. If we allow 'public interest' to mean anything and everything, it will end up meaning nothing at all. Thanks!

We wish to keep working on improving our interaction with you and, in particular, we want to address some of the requests and feedback we have received and introduce some more flexibility in the format of our valuable face-to-face meetings. Starting in Montréal, instead of sending up to three questions to the Board, we would like to offer you the alternative option of choosing a single topic and having an open discussion with the Board on that topic. We are also suggesting that the list of questions or topics received be shared with the entire Community using the Policy digest, in order to increase transparency and allow the groups to improve their own understanding of their peers’ point of views on different issues. As for time allocation, we propose to allocate half of our time together to answer your questions or discuss your single topic and the other half to address the Board’s topic. In preparation for our meetings, the Board chose the following topic to have an open discussion with you: “Community, Board and ICANN org readiness to implement the following three critical plans that will shape ICANN’s future: (1) Strategic Plan FY 21-25, (2) Operating & Financial Plan FY 21-25, and (3) Work Plan to improve the effectiveness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model.” The Strategic Plan [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> has been adopted by the Board last June at ICANN65 in Marrakech. The two other plans will be completed and posted for public comment in December 2019. At ICANN64 in Kobe, the Board asked each constituency to provide three suggestions, one for the Board, one for ICANN org and one for the Community of things/aspects that should be done/improved in order to implement these plans successfully, starting 1 July 2020, as mandated by our Bylaws. In addition, the Board asked for one suggestion of something that could be done externally to improve trust and with our partners and alliances (eg. IETF) so that they collaborate effectively with ICANN on some of our strategic objectives (eg. DNS security). Based on the input received in Kobe, we are compiling a list of suggested actions for the community, Board and ICANN org which we would like to share and discuss with you in Montreal. We will send you that list in advance of our meeting in Montréal on or before Friday, 11 October 2019. We would be very grateful if you could send to Board Operations (board-ops-team(a)icann.org) your single topic or the list of questions (max. 3), in order of priority, no later than Monday, 14 October 2019 or sooner. For information, we are not changing the current total time allotted per group nor the room set-up. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on our suggestions and on how to improve our interaction further.

More details including location and specific time will be shared later. Information Sharing REMINDER: Invitation to Provide Feedback on the ICANN Board’s Proposed Public Interest Framework Executive: Sally Costerton, Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING From 18 September – 18 October 2019, a community consultation is taking place on the global public interest framework proposed by the ICANN Board. In reviewing the proposal, the ICANN Board is asking the ICANN community to consider the following questions for input to the ICANN Board: 1. What are your thoughts on the proposed framework approach? Do you have any suggestions for how it could be improved? 2. What are your thoughts on the proposed approach for decisions in the ICANN ecosystem to be accompanied by a consideration of their impact on the global public interest (as well as an explanation regarding what is meant by the GPI in the specific case)? 3. How do you see this working for the Supporting Organization (SO), Advisory Committee (AC), constituency, group, review team, or cross-community working group (CCWG) to which you are contributing? The global public interest is central to many of ICANN’s primary governance documents, and the ICANN Board hopes to play a role in facilitating a bottom-up, community-driven process to develop a framework as a toolkit for the ICANN community to consider the global public interest. These considerations would not change the process by which decisions are made but could instead serve as tools for the community to reinforce the commitment to the public interest and to demonstrate how specific recommendations, advice, and public comments are in the global public interest. This includes the ICANN community guiding the ICANN Board about the public interest determination the latter must make in its decisions. To learn more about the framework, please read the discussion paper [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…>. Community feedback is welcome by Friday, 18 October 2019 via email at gpitoolkit(a)icann.org. After the community consultation, there will be a public session at ICANN66, followed by a Public Comment proceeding. For more information, visit: https://go.icann.org/2kMb7RB.

Communication from Registration Data Policy IRT
by Rubens Kuhl 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

As council liaison to the Registration Data Policy IRT, the one formed to implement EPDP Phase 1 recommendations, I am relaying this as requested by the IRT. The main message is that 29 Feb 2020 recommended date was deemed to not be feasible due to not providing adequate time for IRT to complete a full review and analysis. The reasons for that include: - Large Scope of work: 29 recommendations; 40+ impacted policies and procedures - Data matrix for 60+ data elements completed for all transactions for both registrars and registry operators - Several recommendations require in-depth IRT discussions as there are multiple interpretations - IRT needs to fully understand the implications and not rush a policy that has such a wide impact The current situation is: - All 29 recommendations analysis formulated and are under IRT review - Initial draft policy language for each recommendations have been proposed for IRT review - Policy language for scope and terms have been drafted - Initial FAQ document drafted When asked for a new date estimate, the IRT view is that: - Estimate can’t be done until after review and analysis - Implementation timeline estimate will be available after IRT have the whole draft - Estimated date will be published for the public comment In summary, the IRT ask is to give them the time they need to do the job. My personal note on that ask is that it looks reasonable, and since this policy includes the so-called "rainbow bridge" that allows contracted parties to move faster if they are ready while allowing more time for those that need it, the average implementation date will be sooner than the policy required date.
