by Julie Bisland 11 Jun '19

11 Jun '19

Dear all, The one-stop wiki page for all your Remote Participation queries is now available. This wiki page covers remote participation details for all GNSO open and public meetings. In addition to this, ICANN Meetings’ Team has put together an updated ICANN meeting website which allows you to download all GNSO-related meetings to your inbox calendar in one go. 2 LINKS TO BOOKMARK NOW: ICANN65 Meeting Schedule<https://65.schedule.icann.org/> GNSO Remote Participation Wiki Page<https://community.icann.org/x/sYiGBg> Step 1 – Create a profile and your personalized ICANN65 schedule Go to the Meeting Schedule webpage and create a profile and login. Every session on the schedule can be selected and added to your individual schedule by clicking the Add box to the bottom right of each meeting, this adds it to your individual schedule which you can then email to yourself or add to your calendar. See next step. Step 2 - There are two ways to import your schedule into Outlook: once you’ve added all your chosen meetings to “My Schedule” go to Export. · Importing creates a one-time snapshot of your schedule and copies it into Outlook. If you subsequently make changes to your Pathable calendar, they will not be reflected in Outlook. · Subscribing creates a live feed of your schedule in Outlook. Outlook checks for changes every few hours and updates your calendar appropriately. Step 3 All sessions allowing remote participation will use Zoom rooms, which you can find on the ICANN65 Meeting Schedule<https://65.schedule.icann.org/> and on the <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_…> GNSO Remote Participation Wiki Page<https://community.icann.org/x/sYiGBg>. There are three options to connect your audio: 1) Via VoIP, choose Computer Audio 2) Getting a dial out from Zoom to your phone, choose Call Me 3) Phoning into the audio bridge (access numbers and Meeting ID are provided for that option), choose Telephone Audio If you cannot log into the Zoom room, but wish to connect via telephone only, to dial into the audio refer to the GNSO Remote Participation Wiki Page<https://community.icann.org/x/sYiGBg> for access numbers and individual Meeting IDs.

Message regarding CCT-RT recommendations
by Mary Wong 10 Jun '19

10 Jun '19

Dear Councilors, I am forwarding the message below on behalf of Larisa Gurnick, Vice-President in ICANN’s Multi-stakeholder Strategy & Strategic Initiatives (MSSI) department. You may recall that the Competition, Consumer Protection & Consumer Trust Review Team’s (CCT-RT) final recommendations included several that were directed at the GNSO Council. This notification should provide you with additional information and context for the ICANN Board’s action in respect of those recommendations. Dear Members of the GNSO Council, The purpose of this note is to highlight the Board resolution passed on 1 March 2019 - see https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2019-03-01-en - that calls for a set of Competition, Consumer Trust, and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) Final Recommendations to be passed through to community groups. As articulated in the Board resolution, “recognizing that the Board has the obligation and responsibility to balance the work of ICANN in order to preserve the ability for ICANN org to serve its Mission and the public interest, the Board decided on three categories of action”: * Accepting recommendations, subject to costing and implementation considerations; * Placing recommendations (in whole or in part) in "Pending" status, directing ICANN org to perform specific actions to enable the Board to take further actions; * Passing recommendations (in whole or in part) to community groups the CCT-RT identified for their consideration. The Board noted fourteen such recommendations (9, 10, 12, 16, 19, 20, 25, 27, 28, 29, 32, 33, 34, 35). We invite you to refer to pages 1-4 of the scorecard https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolutions-final-cct-recs-scor… which compile pass-through recommendations, including the groups they are addressed to. Accordingly, ICANN org wishes to notify you of the recommendations the ICANN Board resolved to pass through to you, in whole or in part, for your consideration: * Recommendation 10. * Recommendation 16 (in part) Note: this recommendation was also passed through to the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG, Registries Stakeholder Group, Registrar Stakeholder Group, Generic Names Supporting Organization, Second Security, Stability & Resiliency of DNS Review Team as suggested by the CCT-RT. In the scorecard, the Board noted that “it is not accepting the policy directives that may be inherent here but rather, passes on such elements of the recommendation to the relevant community groups to consider”. * Recommendation 27. * Recommendation 28. * Recommendation 29. Note: this recommendation was also passed through to the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG, as suggested by the CCT-RT. To inform work relating to recommendations 29 and 30, the ICANN Board suggested that the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG could take on, “should they choose to do so, defining the term ‘Global South’ or agreeing on another term to describe underserved or underrepresented regions or stakeholders in coordination with ICANN org”. We would like to highlight the following language of the Board resolution: “in passing these recommendations through, the Board is neither accepting, nor rejecting the recommendations. […] Passing recommendations through to community groups 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”. As indicated in the resolution, the Board encourages community groups to be “mindful of any interdependencies with ongoing work and discussions”. Additionally, the Board suggests “to the referenced community groups that the CCT-RT's proposed priority levels be taken into account as the groups decide whether, how and when to address the CCT-RT recommendations that are being passed through […]”. Additionally, we would like to flag the Board suggestion that for transparency purposes, “it would be helpful to have records or reporting made available to the ICANN community on how the community group considered the items coming out of the CCT-RT. The Board encourages any level of reporting that the groups are able to provide as the ICANN org and Board track action on the CCT-RT's recommendations”. Please consider providing updates on your progress in addressing (as appropriate) these recommendations, to be included with ICANN org’s reporting. Background The Competition, Consumer Trust, and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) released its Final Report on 8 September 2018 – see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/cct-final-08sep18-en.pdf. The CCT-RT Final Report 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. For more information on the CCT Review and Specific Reviews, please read https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en#article4.6. The ICANN Board took action on each of the 35 recommendations produced by the CCT-RT - see https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2019-03-01-en - on 1 March 2019 and was informed by public comment input received on the Final report (see https://www.icann.org/public-comments/cct-final-recs-2018-10-08-en). The Board’s decisions on each recommendation is documented in the scorecard published at https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolutions-final-cct-recs-scor…. A blog post on the Board action can be found at https://www.icann.org/news/blog/board-action-on-competition-consumer-trust-… for more context. We thank you for your collaboration in considering the CCT-RT output. Please let us know whether you have any questions. Thank you. Best regards. Larisa Gurnick Vice-President, Multi-stakeholder Strategy & Strategic Initiatives, ICANN

Update from EPDP team & Questions
by Rafik Dammak 06 Jun '19

06 Jun '19

Hi all Here some brief update from the EPDP team. The team spent the last calls (90min call per week) since Janis started his role as chair early this month to discuss the approach to be followed for phase 2, including also the review the legal questions and the tools the team will use for deliberation. I attached the slides presented in last call to explain the approach ,includes a rough high level timeline and next steps till Marrakech meeting. Please let me know if you want more details. I also got request for clarification in the last call. As expected, there was interest within EPDP team with regard to board resolution on EPDP phase final report and policy recommendations. The EPDP team is seeking clarification from the GNSO Council regarding the Bylaw-triggered consultation process following the non-adoption by Board of parts of GNSO Council approved recommendations. I understand that council can realistically respond to this after our extraordinary meeting on board resolution next week. Best, Rafik

05 Jun '19

Hi all, Attached is a session description for the ICANN 65 cross-community session on Impacts of EPDP Phase 1 on Other ICANN Policies and Procedures. As the coordinator for this session, I sent the email below to the SO-AC-SG-C leaders meeting planning email distro. Please follow up with your respective SG/C Chairs to ensure your groups are informed of this important session and the opportunity to contribute. I plan to run this session as an opportunity to engage the community rather than having a panel discussion. More details to come. Thanks, Keith From: Drazek, Keith Sent: Monday, June 03, 2019 2:59 PM To: 'soac-leaders-icannmeeting-planning(a)icann.org' <soac-leaders-icannmeeting-planning(a)icann.org> Subject: Cross Community Session at ICANN65 Marrakech - EPDP Phase 1 Impacts on ICANN Policies and Procedures Hi all, As we approach ICANN 65, one of the HIT/CC sessions will focus on the impact of the EPDP Phase 1 recommendations on other existing ICANN policies and procedures. On behalf of the GNSO, I am leading the coordination of this session, and I have volunteered to moderate. The session description is attached.

On Monday, 3 June, the ICANN65 schedule will be publicly available. For quick reference, the date and time for this session is Thursday, 27 June, 15:15-16:45. Again, please feel free to add whichever other lead(s), whether from a GNSO community group or another SO/AC, to this planning thread as appropriate.

As noted in my email to the SOAC Leaders Planning list, I am following up as the staff lead charged with managing the Cross Community & High Interest Topic (CC/HIT) sessions at ICANN meetings. I understand that you have already begun to plan for the session. For your information, and in accordance with what has become the customary practice, ICANN Org assigns specific staff to each CC/HIT session to assist the session organizers. For this consolidated session, Cyrus Namazi will be your responsible Executive, with Trang Nguyen acting as Cyrus’ designee. Trang will therefore be available to assist you with matters relating to scope/subject matter and speaker/panelist suggestions. The logistics and administrative details, including liaising with ICANN’s Meetings & Technical Services folks on the ground, are handled by my team within the Policy Department. Chantelle Doerksen from my team will be your and Trang’s point of contact for these details. I will therefore be grateful if you can keep Trang and Chantelle (both cc’d here) as well as me in the loop as you continue to plan and discuss the session. For your reference, we suggest that you consider the following items and proposed deadlines. While these are merely suggestions, we hope they are helpful as we have observed that many ICANN community members like to plan their meeting schedules ahead of time, and often enquire about details of these CC/HIT sessions (including speakers and materials): * Friday 31 May: Finalize session title and description (note: the ICANN65 schedule is “going live” on Monday 3 June). Chantelle will make sure that this information (and any updates that you may make between then and ICANN65) is published on the ICANN meeting website and schedule. * Friday 14 June: Initial list of speakers/panelists (including the moderator, if any) sent to Chantelle for publication. * Wednesday 25 June (latest): Slides and materials to be used during the session sent to Chantelle for upload to the meeting website. Finally, as this session has been characterized to dat as a Cross Community Session – which typically means that more than one community group acts as session organizers – please feel free to add whichever other lead(s), whether from a GNSO community group or another SO/AC, to this planning thread as appropriate. Thank you again for taking the lead on this session. We as staff will remain available to support you and this session. Cheers Mary
