Re: [council] Draft Operational Design Phase for gTLD Policy Implementation: For Initial Feedback.

Hi Donna, all, Good questions. There is no fixed deadline for feedback, but Theresa joined todays GNSO Council Pre-ICANN Planning Meeting and said theyre looking for feedback during and after ICANN 69. My understanding is that ICANN Org is responding to the ICANN Board to provide additional data associated with costs/complexity of PDP recommendations, likely to include EPDP Phase 2/SSAD and eventually the SubPro recommendations.

Thanks Keith At what point does ICANN org intend to use this? Im trying to work out if it is intended to use it for the EPDP Phase 2 recommendations recently approved by the GNSO Council or other PDPs that are expected to be concluded later this year? Personally, Im concerned that we are already hamstrung by too much process and this will add another layer of complexity that Im not convinced is warranted. It seems this is largely a role that ICANN org should be filling anyway. Of course I will share this with the RySG and see their input. Is there a deadline I need to be cognizant of?

Notice: This email is from an external sender. Hi all, During the 23 September SO/AC Leaders call with Goran, Maarten and Leon, the concept of an Operational Design Phase was introduced by Goran. We had a preliminary discussion on the topic and Goran indicated that ICANN would produce a paper for community consideration and feedback. That paper is attached here for your review, and Gorans email to the SO/AC Leaders is below. Ill highlight 3 points from Gorans note and from the discussion on the call: * The objective for the design phase is to better prepare the Board by providing operational and resourcing information before making decisions on GNSO-approved policy recommendations. * While the GNSO Council is the manager of the PDP and gTLD policy development is within the GNSO's remit, consensus policy making involves all stakeholders (including ACs who give advice to the Board). * This design phase concept doesn't affect policy development or the CPIF. It recognizes that if policy issues are impacted, they rightfully go back to the GNSO for its consideration, rather than permitting ICANN Org or Board to make unilateral changes. (I made this point during the call) Please review the attached paper and work within your SGs and Cs to develop feedback. Also, Karen Lentz will touch on this during our Tuesday Council Working Session. To Gorans last point about conducting a fuller consultation on the gTLD policy lifecycle, well need to ensure that the GNSO Council and our SGs and Cs are prepared to engage where appropriate and in light of our ongoing PDP 3.0 work and the upcoming GNSO Review.

Cassia Oliveira on behalf of Goran Marby Dear SOAC leaders, Thank you again for taking the time to meet with Maarten and me last week. I am writing to follow up on one of ICANN orgs action items from that call, which was for me to finalize and circulate to you a proposal for a new Operational Design Phase relating to the implementation of approved gTLD policies. As we discussed, the objective for an additional design phase is to allow the Board to obtain relevant information about any operational and resourcing issues associated with certain policy implementation efforts. Accordingly, the Operational Design Phase is envisioned to take place prior to Board action on GNSO-approved policy recommendations, initiated through a Board request to ICANN org. Our expectation is that an Operational Design Phase will likely only be needed for complex, costly or other large-scale implementation efforts. I appreciate the thoughtful and substantive discussion we had on this topic during our call. While gTLD policy development work is managed by the GNSO, the other Supporting Organizations and the Advisory Committees play important roles in ensuring that ICANN consensus policies are developed through community consensus and are appropriately resourced. Thank you for the comments and suggestions you made on the call, which we have tried to address as much as possible in this initial draft paper. Please circulate the paper to your community groups for their review and further discussion. As I mentioned on our call, ICANN org will continue to refine the paper and welcome your feedback as part of this iterative process. After ICANN69, we plan to conduct a fuller community consultation on the gTLD policy lifecycle, to include an updated version of this paper and to gather community feedback on any updates we can make to improve the efficacy and efficiency of the policy making process.

While 2020 has proven challenging and likely very different from what we were all expecting when we last saw each other almost a year ago in Montréal, the Board and I keep being impressed and grateful for your continued dedication to ICANN’s mission. The Board still values its dialogue with your groups and is very much looking forward to engaging with you during our 22nd and first ever virtual Annual General Meeting that will take place between 13-22 October 2020. As you keep working on the format for ICANN69, we would like to start preparing for community dialogue with the Board. As per what we did in Montréal and virtually for ICANN67, 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 will also publish the list of questions or topics received using this digest as a successful tool for improving transparency and allowing other groups to deepen their own understanding of their peers’ point of view on different issues. As for time allocation, per what we did previously, 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 has chosen the following topic to have an open discussion with you: · Enhancing the effectiveness of the multistakeholder model - key issues and opportunities for acceleration. In your preparation, you may want to consider the results of the most recent public consultation and the work that has progressed with dependencies to enhancing the effectiveness of the multistakeholder model, such as the Accountability and Transparency Review Team (ATRT3) Final Report and work on prioritization and budgeting). We would be very grateful if you could send to Board Operations, board-ops-team(a)icann.org, your single topic or list of questions, in order of priority, no later than Monday, 5 October 2020 or sooner. For your information, we are not changing the current total time allotted per group. We look forward to hearing your thoughts, questions or topics of interest and to exchange with you constructively and virtually. Best regards, Maarten Botterman ICANN Board Chair THIS WEEK: ICANN69 Prep Week ICANN org recently announced [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001dU4xDp8u5KDJkhAjo…> the ICANN69 Prep Week schedule.

The chairs will then coordinate and consolidate their respective group’s feedback. The Board will also host a session at ICANN69 to continue the conversation with the community about our meeting strategy. The survey will serve as a guidepost for those discussions.

Dear Councilors and Becky, Thank you so much for your very kind words and support. One of our former colleagues used to say it took her four years to figure out what the Council business is all about. I will do my best to serve my 4th year apprenticeship :-) Kind regards, Pam ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sender:Terri Agnew <terri.agnew(a)icann.org> Sent At:2020 Oct. 2 (Fri.) 01:34 Recipient:council@gnso.icann.org <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Cc:gnso-secs@icann.org <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Subject:[council] FW: [Ext] [gnso-secs] GNSO Vice Chair Dear all, Please find below the Contracted Party House confirmation of Pam Little as GNSO Council Vice-Chair for 2020 - 2021.
