by Drazek, Keith 23 May '19

23 May '19

Hi all, This week, in preparation for ICANN 65, the GNSO Council leadership team met with the GAC leadership team. Not surprisingly, the topic of the Council’s decision on the IGO-INGO CRP recommendations was discussed. Today, the GAC followed up with a letter to Council, copying the ICANN Board, requesting a facilitated dialogue on the issue. They further requested that the GNSO Council respond by 31 May indicating whether we will accept further debate and deliberation on the issue. As such, we will add this topic to the end of our extraordinary meeting now scheduled for Tuesday, 28 May. Please review the attached staff notes from the Council-GAC leadership call and the attached letter. Thanks, Keith From: Julia Charvolen <julia.charvolen(a)icann.org> Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2019 3:21 PM To: Drazek, Keith <kdrazek(a)verisign.com> Cc: Cherine Chalaby <Cherine.chalaby(a)board.icann.org>; Jonathan.PASSARO(a)oecd.org; brian.beckham(a)wipo.int; Jorge Cancio <Jorge.Cancio(a)bakom.admin.ch>; Heineman, Ashley <AHeineman(a)ntia.gov>; GACLEADERSHIP <gac-leadership(a)icann.org>; Pam Little <pam.little(a)alibaba-inc.com>; rafik.dammak(a)gmail.com; gnso-secs(a)icann.org; Board Ops Team <board-ops-team(a)icann.org> Subject: [EXTERNAL] GAC Chair letter on IGO Access to Curative Rights Mechanism: Next Steps Dear Keith, Dear Cherine, Please find attached the letter from the GAC Chair, Manal Ismail, regarding the IGO Access to Curative Rights Mechanism.

23 May '19

[Image removed by sender.] Thursday, 23 May 2019 ICANN Community Leadership Digest [Image removed by sender.] This twice-weekly digest helps ICANN community leaders track requests and provides updates from ICANN org. TABLE OF CONTENTS Information Sharing · NEW: CCT-RT Recommendations · NEXT WEEK: End of Rejection Action Petition Period · LOOKING AHEAD: ICANN66 Travel Support Timeline ICANN65 Planning · NEW: Invitation to Meet with Brian Cute in Marrakech · SAVE THE DATE: ICANN65 Community Leadership Reception · REMINDER: Meet with the ATRT3 Review Team Public Comment · Evolving ICANN's Multistakeholder Model · Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone Version 3 (RZ-LGR-3) · Study on Technical Use of Root Zone Label Generation Rules · Process Proposal for Streamlining Organizational Reviews Information Sharing NEW: CCT-RT Recommendations Executive: Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING The ICANN Board passed a resolution on 1 March 2019 that calls for a set of Competition, Consumer Trust, and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) Final Recommendations to be passed through, in whole or in part, to community groups. Notifications will be circulated to the community group the CCT-RT identified for the fourteen passed through recommendations. As articulated in the Board resolution, "passing through these CCT-RT recommendations is not a directive that the groups identified should formally address any of the issues within those recommendations. It is within the purview of each group to identify whether work will be taken on and the topics that the group will address". BACKGROUND The CCT-RT released its Final Report [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> on 8 September 2018. It contains 35 recommendations and is the culmination of nearly three years of work, reviewing how the expansion of top-level domain names impacted competition, consumer trust, and choice.

The Board’s decisions on each recommendation are documented here [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> and a blog post about the Board action can be found here [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> for more context. NEXT WEEK: End of Rejection Action Petition Period Executive: David Olive, Senior Vice President, Policy Development Support FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING Under the ICANN Bylaws, the ICANN Board's approval of the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and updates to the Five-Year Operating Plan on Wednesday, 8 May 2019 triggered a Rejection Action Petition Period for the Empowered Community. This 21-day period will end at 23:59 PDT (Los Angeles being the location of the principal ICANN office) on Wednesday, 29 May 2019, or 06:59 UTC on Thursday, 30 May 2019.

Please refer to Annex D of the ICANN Bylaws [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> for additional details on the Rejection Process, including all pertinent deadlines and requirements for Rejection Action Petitions. LOOKING AHEAD: ICANN66 Travel Support Timeline Executive: Sally Costerton, Senior Advisor to the President and CEO; Senior Vice President, Global Stakeholder Engagement FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING All travel support requests are now due 120 days prior to the next ICANN Public Meeting. This was previously a 90-day deadline. Therefore, the deadline for ICANN66 travel support is Friday, 5 July 2019. If applicable, community groups will need to adjust their election timelines accordingly to ensure new leaders are eligible in time for the ICAN66 travel support deadline. ICANN65 Planning NEW: Invitation to Meet with Brian Cute in Marrakech Executive: Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING A high interest topic session on this the future of the multistakeholder model of governance [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__r20.rs6.net_tn.jsp-3Ff-…> is planned for ICANN65. Facilitator Brian Cute is interested in updating the community on the work that has been done to date and discuss how a work plan to address the community-identified issues will be developed following ICANN65.

SAVE THE DATE: ICANN65 Community Leadership Reception Executive: David Olive, Senior Vice President, Policy Development Support FOR: All Community Leaders INFORMATION SHARING Save the date for the ICANN65 Community Leadership Reception with members of the ICANN Board and Executive Team on Sunday, 23 June 2019, 18:00-20:00 CET in Marrakech, Morocco. Details will be confirmed as the date approaches. REMINDER: Meet with the ATRT3 Review Team at ICANN65 Executive: Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives FOR: All SO/AC Chairs INFORMATION SHARING The third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) will meet in Marrakech to advance its work. As some of the team will be in Marrakech we would like to ask for a 30 to 40-minute slot on your community group's agenda, if possible. Community input is key to the success of this process. If you are able to accommodate us on your agenda, please send us an email to <atrt3-coordination(a)icann.org> to let us know a day and time that would suit. We will send you a preliminary set of questions ahead of the meeting to aid the discussion. We also welcome any questions you wish to raise in advance. Our goal for Marrakech is to: - Socialize our terms of reference and scope; - Conduct investigation of identified objectives - Seek input from the community to help us shape our findings and draft recommendations. BACKGROUND The ATRT review is mandated by ICANN Bylaws Section 4.6 (b) to examine ICANN’s execution of its commitment to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes of its decision-making reflect the public interest and are accountable to the Internet community. Prior to meeting in Marrakech, the review team met on 3-5 April in Los Angeles for its first substantive meeting to develop our terms of reference and work plan, in response to the Board Resolution (2018.10.25.15) requesting that “ATRT3 adopt its Terms of Reference and Work Plan within 60 days of convening its first meeting, and submit these documents to the Board and to the leadership of the Supporting Organizations and the Advisory Committees, to confirm that the team's scope and timeline are consistent with the requirements of the ICANN Bylaws and ICANN community expectations.” We look forward to hearing from you.

IDN Related Public Comment Proceedings
by Steve Chan 21 May '19

21 May '19

Dear Councilors, With the Council’s focus recently on IDNs, staff thought it might be worthwhile to flag two public comment proceedings that are focused on IDNs. While this is being sent to the Council list, it may be of particular interest to the small team of Councilors convened to suggest a procedural path forward for IDN Variants and other IDN related issues. The first is on the Label Generation Rules for the Root Zone Version 3 (RZ-LGR-3) - https://www.icann.org/public-comments/rz-lgr-3-2019-04-25-en The RZ-LGR is needed to determine valid top-level IDN labels and their variant labels. This public comment proceeding on the third version of the RZ-LGR and is taking place as a result of 10 additional scripts having been approved by the Integration Panel. The public comment period is currently open and is scheduled to close on 4 June 2019. The second is on Study on Technical Use of Root Zone Label Generation Rules (https://www.icann.org/public-comments/technical-rz-lgr-2019-05-15-en) As the RZ-LGR is being incrementally developed by the community, the RZ-LGR Study Group (SG) was constituted at the request of the ICANN Board. Its membership is based on volunteers/nominations from the ccNSO, GNSO and Internet Architecture Board (IAB) and the group has been directed to study technical considerations for utilizing the RZ-LGR to determine valid top-level domains (TLDs) and their variant labels in a harmonized manner. The public comment period is currently open and is scheduled to close on 30 June 2019.

Details will be confirmed as the date approaches. REMINDER: Meet with the ATRT3 Review Team at ICANN65 Executive: Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives FOR: All SO/AC Chairs INFORMATION SHARING The third Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) will meet in Marrakech to advance its work. As some of the team will be in Marrakech we would like to ask for a 30 to 40-minute slot on your community group's agenda, if possible. Community input is key to the success of this process. If you are able to accommodate us on your agenda, please send us an email to <atrt3-coordination(a)icann.org> to let us know a day and time that would suit. We will send you a preliminary set of questions ahead of the meeting to aid the discussion. We also welcome any questions you wish to raise in advance. Our goal for Marrakech is to: - Socialize our terms of reference and scope; - Conduct investigation of identified objectives - Seek input from the community to help us shape our findings and draft recommendations. BACKGROUND The ATRT review is mandated by ICANN Bylaws Section 4.6 (b) to examine ICANN’s execution of its commitment to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes of its decision-making reflect the public interest and are accountable to the Internet community. Prior to meeting in Marrakech, the review team met on 3-5 April in Los Angeles for its first substantive meeting to develop our terms of reference and work plan, in response to the Board Resolution (2018.10.25.15) requesting that “ATRT3 adopt its Terms of Reference and Work Plan within 60 days of convening its first meeting, and submit these documents to the Board and to the leadership of the Supporting Organizations and the Advisory Committees, to confirm that the team's scope and timeline are consistent with the requirements of the ICANN Bylaws and ICANN community expectations.” We look forward to hearing from you.
