Re: [council] The Information Transparency Initiative (ITI) Feedback Site is Now Live - ICANN - Blog by David Conrad

July 3, 2019

Dear Ayden and all, We apologize if there were difficulties with accessing the feedback tool – there ought not to be any, so please do try it again if you wish to provide feedback. Please be assured that ICANN organization is committed to and interested in gathering the community’s feedback on each of the features that we will be rolling out with the objective of improving the findability, transparency, and accessibility of ICANN public content. The deadlines are, unfortunately, what they are in order to ensure that we are able to deliver on this major project on budget and on time. There will certainly be multiple and additional opportunities and forums for continuing community feedback, as noted in David’s blog that is referenced in the announcement below. Thank you.

This new website implies a shift towards greater consultation and community participation in ICANN's content strategy, but we cannot actually wield any influence by commenting here. (And not just because if you press the 'provide feedback' button, you see "The feedback survey is temporarily unavailable.") From what I understand we are not even being asked to comment on anything important. The list of 250 definitions, which I would like to review for neutrality and accuracy, are not online and it sounds like they have already been approved internally and are not open to community review. Are we really being asked to comment on just the glossary tool itself, and did ICANN really produce a video mockup and slide deck of something so incredibly mundane when it is up for public comment for just a week? Please forgive the negative sentiment to my message here, but it really seems a poor allocation of resources to me.

As I have written about in previous blogs and discussed at ICANN60 and ICANN61 sessions, this site[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…> is intended to provide you, the ICANN community, with the ability to share your input on the content and features the ITI team is working on to improve the findability, transparency, and accessibility of ICANN public content. The first item we are looking for your comments on is an updated Acronyms and Terms feature[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…> to replace the existing feature[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>. Our update doubles the number of terms available, provides up-to-date definitions for the terms, and improves search. Unlike most of the ITI project, we will launch this updated feature on the current https://icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_&d=DwMGa…> before 31 May 2018. The deadline to provide your input on the proposed updates to Acronyms and Terms is 30 April 2018, 23:59 UTC. Please visit feedback.icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…> to experience the proposed changes and complete a short survey. How the ITI Feedback Site Works The ITI Team will regularly post documents, mockups, or video walkthroughs of new content and features. The proposed content or feature items are listed on the homepage under the heading "Feedback Needed." Each item lists a deadline by which you need to provide input. Simply click on the item you're interested in. This will take you to another page, which provides you with the option to either download a mockup or watch a video walkthrough. Once you have completed that task, click on the "Feedback" button to complete a short survey or email your feedback to informationtransparency(a)icann.org<mailto:informationtransparency@icann.org>. Once the deadline has passed, the ITI Team will collect and publish all comments to feedback.icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…>. All published results of the survey will be anonymous, unless otherwise requested by the submitter. We will review all submissions and make our best efforts to implement the feedback, prioritizing input that serves the goals of improving search and accessibility, and increasing the transparency of our content. Feedback Deadlines We do have a tight deadline for community comments – one week for each new item. The reason for this timeline is we need to maintain a rigorous development schedule to ensure we are delivering the project on time and within budget. However, feedback.icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…> is not your only avenue to share input. ITI has many other opportunities to learn about ITI and provide comments including: * Regular sessions at ICANN Public Meetings. * Special sessions or webinars for Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees (SO/ACs) on request or for special features and content like Public Comment. * Monthly blogs and newsletters. * Via email at informationtransparency(a)icann.org<mailto:informationtransparency@icann.org> Feedback Translations As I outlined above, we are working at a brisk development pace. This does limit our ability to fully translate feedback.icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_itifeedb…> and its survey. But, if you want to share feedback in another language, email us at informationtransparency(a)icann.org<mailto:informationtransparency@icann.org>. It is important to emphasize that one of the primary goals of ITI is a multilingual https://icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_&d=DwMGa…>, and the sooner we complete this project, the sooner we can deliver on that goal. ITI Goals ITI's goal is not a revamp of https://icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_&d=DwMGa…>. While the ITI team is working on making improvements to your User Experience (UX) on https://icann.org[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_&d=DwMGa…>, the vast majority of our efforts are focused on: * Creating content governance through new, enforced workflows and the creation of a consistent, multilingual taxonomy. * Building new technical infrastructures including a first-ever for ICANN document management system (DMS) and a new content management system (CMS). This new infrastructure will enforce this governance and enable improved content findability. Much of this foundational work won't be available on the feedback site for your input, but we will show the intended benefits of this work through the content and features we will share. ITI Update The ITI team has been hard at work completing that foundational work I mentioned above. We have completed the following tasks since the January 2018 launch of ITI: * The foundational build of the DMS and CMS, and the integration between the two platforms. * Sixty percent of the content audit and the taxonomy creation. * Interviews with SO/AC leaders, registrants, registrars, Fellows, and other ICANN stakeholders. We have also begun work on the following items: * Content modelling, workflow creation, and content governance enforcement in the DMS. * Accessibility guidelines and multilingual site implementation planning. ITI will launch in December 2019. ITI Backgrounders For those of you unfamiliar with ITI, you can read about what it is and how it will benefit the ICANN community in my kickoff blog[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_blo…>. You can learn more about how the content audit and taxonomy will help your search experience in my January blog[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_blo…>.

Call for Volunteers: Registration Data Policy Implementation - pre-IRT
by Andrea Glandon March 29, 2019

March 29, 2019

Call for Volunteers: Registration Data Policy Implementation - Informal pre-IRT ICANN org is currently seeking volunteers to participate in an informal Pre-Implementation Review Team, or “pre-IRT.” The pre-IRT will assist the ICANN implementation project team in planning implementation work for the EPDP Team’s policy recommendations. As background, the GNSO Council approved and EPDP Team recommended that the GNSO Council and ICANN Org should informally convene the Implementation Review Team to allow for the necessary planning to take place before ICANN Board consideration of its Final Report, following which the IRT would be formally convened (See EPDP Team Recommendation 28). This pre-IRT will act as a temporary implementation review team, which will assist with the gTLD registration data policy implementation planning until the formal Implementation Review Team is officially convened. All members of the pre-IRT are expected to transition to the IRT. The work of the pre-IRT will consist of the following: * Review the proposed implementation plan as drafted by ICANN org * Assist where questions or clarifications from ICANN org arise * Advise on technical and operational details related to the implementation of EPDP recommendations For this pre-IRT, ICANN org is seeking volunteers who are current or former EPDP Team members and assisted in the Team’s Phase 1 work, and accordingly, possess a deep understanding of the EPDP Team’s policy recommendations and accompanying rationale. All volunteers responding to this call are expected to understand the role and remit of the IRT for the implementation project. The work of the pre-IRT is estimated to last until May 2019 when the IRT is expected to convene to take over the work. The pre-IRT is anticipated to have weekly teleconferences starting in early April 2019 for one hour each. Between the meetings, the pre-IRT will be working using collaborative tools. The expected time commitment for supporting the implementation is about three hours per week. How to apply To participate, please send an email to gnso-secs(a)icann.org<mailto:gnso-secs@icann.org>. If you wish to join the IRT and not the Pre-IRT, please wait to respond to the Call for IRT, which will come later. Background On 17 May 2018, the ICANN Board of Directors (ICANN Board) adopted the Temporary Specification for generic top-level domain (gTLD) Registration Data<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/gtld-registration-data-specs-en/#temp…> ("Temporary Specification") pursuant to the procedures for the establishment of temporary policies in ICANN's agreements with Registry Operators and Registrars ("Contracts"). The Temporary Specification provides modifications to existing requirements in the Registrar Accreditation and Registry Agreements in order to comply with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). Following adoption of a temporary specification, the procedure for Temporary Policies as outlined in the Registrar Accreditation and Registry Agreements provides the Board "shall immediately implement the Consensus Policy development process set forth in ICANN's Bylaws." Additionally, the procedure provides this Consensus Policy development process on the Temporary Specification must be carried out within a one-year period as the Temporary Specification can only remain in force for up to one year; from the effective date of 25 May 2018, i.e., the Temporary Specification will expire on 25 May 2019. On 19 July 2018, the GNSO Council initiated<https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocouncilmeetings/Motions+19+July+2018> an Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) and chartered<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/temp-spec…> the EPDP on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data team. Unlike other GNSO PDP efforts, which are open for anyone to join, the GNSO Council chose to limit the membership composition of this EPDP, primarily in recognition of the need to complete the work in a relatively short timeframe and to resource the effort responsibly. GNSO Stakeholder Groups, the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC), the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO), the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC), the Root Server System Advisory Committee (RSSAC), and the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) were each invited to appoint up to a set number of members and alternates, as outlined in the charter<https://community.icann.org/display/EOTSFGRD/EPDP+Team+Charter?preview=/885…>. In addition, the ICANN Board and ICANN Org were invited to assign a limited number of liaisons to this effort. A call for volunteers to the aforementioned groups was issued in July and the EPDP Team held its first meeting on 1 August 2018<https://community.icann.org/display/EOTSFGRD/2018-08-01+EPDP+Team+call+%231>. On 4 March 2019, the GNSO Council adopted the EPDP Team’s Final Report and submitted it to the Board for their consideration. The Board is currently conducting a public comment that is scheduled to close on 17 April 2019.

EPDP Team resources request
by Rafik Dammak March 27, 2019

March 27, 2019

Dear Keith, As directed by the GNSO Council, the EPDP Team has commenced its work on phase 2 by focusing on the development of a work plan and timeline for the phase 2 deliberations. As part of these discussions, the EPDP Team is also expected to identify whether any additional resources are needed, beyond the traditional support that is provided to GNSO policy development activities, to meet the milestones and timeline proposed. The EPDP Team would like to recognize the critical importance of the additional resources provided for phase 1 in facilitating the deliberations and allowing the EPDP Team to deliver a Final Report within the timeframe provided. The EPDP Team wants to ensure that any specific resource requests are fiscally responsible by demonstrating clear alignment with the work plan and timeline, as such, some additional time will be needed to formulate any such requests. Nevertheless, there are some immediate resources that the EPDP Team considers crucial in supporting the initial stages of phase 2 and as such we would like to request that the GNSO Council petition the ICANN Board to provide immediate support for the following resources: · Continued availability of legal counsel, following the same process and approach in phase 1 (any questions are vetted through the legal committee); · Continued support for telecom services and transcriptions, but to reduce costs, transcriptions would have a 72 hour turnaround time (instead of 24 hour); · Mediation support for the EPDP Team meetings at ICANN65 in Marrakesh. Some have also requested that travel support is to be made available for ICANN65 for EPDP Team members who would otherwise not be able to attend and where no alternate is able to step in. We leave it up to the Council’s discretion to determine whether this is a reasonable request to include with the above. In order to take full advantage of the face-to-face opportunity that Marrakesh offers and minimize conflict with other meetings, we would also like to request support for organizing a one day face-to-face meeting on day zero of ICANN65. A request for such a meeting would need to be made by 26 March at the latest and is subject to approval by ICANN Org as well as availability of facilities. If such a request is granted, this would also require funded travelers to arrive a day earlier than normally foreseen, including an additional hotel night. We look forward to receiving your feedback. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this request further, please let me know. Best Regards, Rafik Dammak Interim Chair and GNSO Council liaison to the EPDP Team

Re: [council] Updated/Extended EPDP Chair EOI
by Marie Pattullo March 27, 2019

March 27, 2019

Thanks – I also agree that an extension is sensible. We don’t need to wait until the new Chair is found to start this important work though; Rafik is a very capable interim Chair! As for the concept of a paid chair I support exploring this concept as it will ensure we get someone who is engaged and motivated. I’m not so convinced that co-chairs, especially one from each house, is the way to go, however: we need a single strong independent chair that can ensure quick forward movement. A pair / trio of co-chairs could result in a situation where well-entrenched and known views impede progress. I also still think Michele’s idea of a ccNSO person would be great – if we know anyone willing to take this on!

Agree a two week extension is reasonable given the circumstances. I hope providing additional details about the anticipated workload, pace, and intensity for phase 2 increases the pool of viable candidates. But for the sake of argument, what if it does not? I think we need to start thinking that through now and not wait until our 18 April meeting to start considering our options. A few thoughts I have: * We can extend the application deadline one more time if necessary; although doing so is likely only productive if there is a serious outreach campaign to locate additional qualified applicants. * What if the chair was a paid position? I know this wasn't a popular idea during our Kobe meeting, and I can understand why. But maybe we need to rethink that and explore budget options with ICANN. * Re-evaluate the charter for leadership make up/selection. * What if we select 2 co-chairs, one from each house? * If Council selects the chair through the established process, maybe each house selects a vice chair. With 2 vice chairs, the chair will have more support. Ideas from others?

Hi all, The deadline for the EOI response has passed and there was only one respondent. In light of the EPDP and GNSO Council discussions in Kobe, I think it’s appropriate to extend the deadline for two weeks to Monday, 8 April while providing some additional details about the anticipated work load and pace/intensity of Phase 2. I hope this will inform potential Chair candidates and encourage a more robust response. We have updated the attached EOI document accordingly, which will be posted later today. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Note that I’ll be traveling part of the day tomorrow so I may be less responsive. Please make sure to copy in Nathalie on the final version so she can co-ordinate the distribution.
