by Johan Helsingius June 28, 2020

June 28, 2020

The ICANN68 GAC Communique is now out at https://gac.icann.org/contentMigrated/icann68-gac-communique As expected, there is no consensus advice, but "Issues of Importance to the GAC" has the following points: 1.Subsequent Rounds of New gTLDs 2.EPDP on gTLD Registration Data 3.DNS Abuse 4.IGO Protections 5.CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 2 Implementation There is also a follow-up on previous advice on the EPDP, where the GAC reiterates that the advice to "Distinguish between legal and natural persons, allowing for public access to WHOIS data of legal entities, which are not in the remit of the GDPR” still stands and should be considered.

June 24, 2020

Dear Chair and Colleagues, I would like to apologize to have joined the meeting late this morning. As explained to Nathalie this morning, I have got an emergency situation with my son and I needed to handle it at the very last minute. I did not want to disturb the course of the meeting this morning, that is why I am only writing to you guys now. Everything is now fine, we are back home. Thanks all for your kind words and @James for accepting to proxy me within a very short notice. @__f_f__ Best Regards ____________________________________ (Ekue) Farell FOLLY GNSO Councillor linkedin.com/in/farellf
