Hi everyone, This is a “last call” for your inputs on our session with the Board and the following - as the deadline is tomorrow. Thanks. Philippe From: FOUQUART Philippe INNOV/NET Sent: Friday, October 8, 2021 6:22 PM To: 'council(a)gnso.icann.org' <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Subject: RE: [council] ICANN72 Joint Session ICANN Board - Stakeholders Hi everyone, A reminder (arguably a bit close to the initial email but) to make sure you provide any comments you may have on the proposed approach for us to get back to the board by the due date – October 15th. Thank you. Best, Philippe From: FOUQUART Philippe INNOV/NET Sent: Wednesday, October 6, 2021 6:40 PM To: 'Pam Little' <pam.little(a)alibaba-inc.com<mailto:pam.little@alibaba-inc.com>>; Kurt Pritz <kurt(a)kjpritz.com<mailto:kurt@kjpritz.com>>; 'council(a)gnso.icann.org' <council(a)gnso.icann.org<mailto:council@gnso.icann.org>> Subject: RE: [council] ICANN72 Joint Session ICANN Board - Stakeholders Hi everyone, Thanks, Pam and Kurt for weighing in. Not having seen any further feedback, and having discussed further with Council leadership, I would like to suggest the following: 1. In relation to the Board’s question, it seems that some clarification in advance of the meeting may be helpful to ensure a productive discussion. As a result, we would like to suggest reaching out to the Board with the following follow-up questions / assumptions/ input: * The Council’s assumption is that the “we” in this question refers to the ICANN community as a whole, not just including the ICANN Board, ICANN org and the ICANN community. If that is an incorrect assumption, the Board should advise the Council accordingly. * When referring to “geopolitical” issues and mindful of the CEO’s recent blog post<https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/icann-president-and-ceo-goals-for-fi…>, does the Board have any specific examples (initiatives, proposals etc.) short-term and long-term in mind that they would like to address in priority? For those, on which specific issues and in what form would “we”, the ICANN community, work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact? * The Council would like to remind the Board of prior correspondence on this topic (see https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/gnso-coun…) and would like to reiterate that it “would welcome further insight into ICANN org’s plans for consolidating, analysing and sharing inputs received from the community”. 2. In relation to the Board’s question to “submit your single topic of interest and/or questions”, we thought it might be helpful to ask the Board for a status update on GNSO Council approved policy recommendations/clarifications issues that are with the ICANN Board for a decision. These include: * Status of EPDP Phase 1 Recommendation #12 – see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/fouquart-to-botterman-… * Status of EPDP Phase 1 Recommendation #7 – see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/fouquart-to-botterman-… It might be possible to receive updates on the status of these items in advance of our meeting so that no time during the meeting needs to be spent on these. Furthermore, I presume that the Council might welcome an update on the expected timeline for implementation of the EPDP phase 1 recommendations and the potential impact a decision on these outstanding items may have had on that timeline. In addition, we would like to take the opportunity to provide the Board with a brief update on the Council’s plan for this year’s Strategic Planning Session and see if there is any input the Board would like to provide to help inform the Council’s discussions. If there are any concerns about this approach and/or you have any additional suggestions for topics or questions for the ICANN Board, please share these by 10 October so we can get this back to the Board in a timely manner.

One clarifying question: In the Board topic, who is “we”? The Board? The Board + ICANN org? The whole big ICANN? For reference, the topic is: Please provide input/comments on how you think we could efficiently identify and work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact when it comes to geopolitical issues relating to ICANN’s mission. I don’t know if this is a silly question or not — and if you think it is, there is no need to pursue it — but I was thinking that the advice might change depending on who “we” is.

We certainly do hope that, in spite of these worldwide challenging circumstances, you managed to rest and spend quality time with your love ones. Ahead of our 23rd and second fully virtual AGM, ICANN72 (25-28 October), the Board and I would like to propose the following topic for discussion during our time together: Please provide input/comments on how you think we could efficiently identify and work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact when it comes to geopolitical issues relating to ICANN’s mission.

Your suggested questions and/or topic for discussion will be published and circulated in the Policy digest, as always, which will facilitate transparency and allow the groups to deepen their own understanding of their peers’ point of views on different issues.

Request ICANN Board to Appoint Liaison to IDNs EPDP
by Farell FOLLY 12 Oct '21

12 Oct '21

Dear Councilors, The IDNs EPDP Team would like to request the ICANN Board to appoint a liaison to the EPDP Team. This message is to seek no-objection from the GNSO Council for the EPDP Team to send ICANN Board such a request. As you are aware, the GNSO received directives stemming from the ICANN Board resolution to develop policy to define all gTLDs and manage the variant labels. The ICANN Board requests that the GNSO conducts this work by taking into account the IDN variant TLD recommendations and the RZ-LGR Technical Utilization recommendations, which were approved by the Board. As the other PDPs, the final recommendations developed by this EPDP Team will come before the Board for review and approval. In addition, the EPDP Team’s former Chair Edmon Chung will transition to the ICANN Board at ICANN72. Due to the Board’s close involvement in the IDN subject and its importance in the new gTLD program, the IDNs EPDP Team believes it would be beneficial to establish a Board liaison position. Same as the Board liaisons who served in the Temporary Specification EPDP and the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP, such Board liaison is expected to share on a regular basis any input the Board may have that will inform the EPDP Team deliberations and ongoing work, as well as keep the Board informed concerning the status of the Team deliberations. The Board Governance Committee recently published Guidelines <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/board-liaison-guidelines-31may2…> to provide more details of the Board liaison’s roles and responsibilities. While the Guidelines requires that “a liaison(s) is only appointed if the charter of a certain project is deemed to warrant it and foresee such an appointment”, the Guidelines were published after the GNSO Council approval of the IDNs EPDP Charter. As the EPDP Team is still in the early stages of its work, it would be timely for the Board to appoint a liaison, if it agrees to do so. If there is no objection from the GNSO Council by Friday 15 October, the IDNs EPDP Team leadership will send the liaison appointment request to the ICANN Board. Thank you for your review and consideration. Best Regards, @__f_f__ Best regards ____________________________________ Lt-Colonel Farell FOLLY, Ir GNSO Councillor linkedin.com/in/farellf

Re: [council] ICANN72 Joint Session ICANN Board - Stakeholders
by philippe.fouquart＠orange.com 08 Oct '21

08 Oct '21

Hi everyone, A reminder (arguably a bit close to the initial email but) to make sure you provide any comments you may have on the proposed approach for us to get back to the board by the due date – October 15th. Thank you. Best, Philippe From: FOUQUART Philippe INNOV/NET Sent: Wednesday, October 6, 2021 6:40 PM To: 'Pam Little' <pam.little(a)alibaba-inc.com>; Kurt Pritz <kurt(a)kjpritz.com>; 'council(a)gnso.icann.org' <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Subject: RE: [council] ICANN72 Joint Session ICANN Board - Stakeholders Hi everyone, Thanks, Pam and Kurt for weighing in. Not having seen any further feedback, and having discussed further with Council leadership, I would like to suggest the following: 1. In relation to the Board’s question, it seems that some clarification in advance of the meeting may be helpful to ensure a productive discussion. As a result, we would like to suggest reaching out to the Board with the following follow-up questions / assumptions/ input: * The Council’s assumption is that the “we” in this question refers to the ICANN community as a whole, not just including the ICANN Board, ICANN org and the ICANN community. If that is an incorrect assumption, the Board should advise the Council accordingly. * When referring to “geopolitical” issues and mindful of the CEO’s recent blog post<https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/icann-president-and-ceo-goals-for-fi…>, does the Board have any specific examples (initiatives, proposals etc.) short-term and long-term in mind that they would like to address in priority? For those, on which specific issues and in what form would “we”, the ICANN community, work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact? * The Council would like to remind the Board of prior correspondence on this topic (see https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/gnso-coun…) and would like to reiterate that it “would welcome further insight into ICANN org’s plans for consolidating, analysing and sharing inputs received from the community”. 2. In relation to the Board’s question to “submit your single topic of interest and/or questions”, we thought it might be helpful to ask the Board for a status update on GNSO Council approved policy recommendations/clarifications issues that are with the ICANN Board for a decision. These include: * Status of EPDP Phase 1 Recommendation #12 – see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/fouquart-to-botterman-… * Status of EPDP Phase 1 Recommendation #7 – see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/fouquart-to-botterman-… It might be possible to receive updates on the status of these items in advance of our meeting so that no time during the meeting needs to be spent on these. Furthermore, I presume that the Council might welcome an update on the expected timeline for implementation of the EPDP phase 1 recommendations and the potential impact a decision on these outstanding items may have had on that timeline. In addition, we would like to take the opportunity to provide the Board with a brief update on the Council’s plan for this year’s Strategic Planning Session and see if there is any input the Board would like to provide to help inform the Council’s discussions. If there are any concerns about this approach and/or you have any additional suggestions for topics or questions for the ICANN Board, please share these by 10 October so we can get this back to the Board in a timely manner.

Given that the sentence goes on to say "we (..) could work more closely", thats certainly not a silly question to ask...

One clarifying question: In the Board topic, who is “we”? The Board? The Board + ICANN org? The whole big ICANN? For reference, the topic is: Please provide input/comments on how you think we could efficiently identify and work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact when it comes to geopolitical issues relating to ICANN’s mission. I don’t know if this is a silly question or not — and if you think it is, there is no need to pursue it — but I was thinking that the advice might change depending on who “we” is.

We certainly do hope that, in spite of these worldwide challenging circumstances, you managed to rest and spend quality time with your love ones. Ahead of our 23rd and second fully virtual AGM, ICANN72 (25-28 October), the Board and I would like to propose the following topic for discussion during our time together: Please provide input/comments on how you think we could efficiently identify and work more closely with Governments globally, as well as educate, train and interact when it comes to geopolitical issues relating to ICANN’s mission. As we are doing for a few years already, we would like to dedicate half of our time together to discuss this topic and half the time to discuss the topic of your choice or answer the questions you might have. We would therefore like to invite you to submit your single topic of interest and/or questions (please consider the limited time if you chose to submit multiple questions) to our Board Operations team (board-ops-team(a)icann.org<mailto:board-ops-team@icann.org>) no later than Friday 15 October 2021. Your suggested questions and/or topic for discussion will be published and circulated in the Policy digest, as always, which will facilitate transparency and allow the groups to deepen their own understanding of their peers’ point of views on different issues. We look forward to hearing your thoughts, questions or topics of interest and to exchange with you constructively and virtually.

Each year, I work with the Board and the org's Executive team to develop goals for the coming fiscal year. I develop the first seven goals, and the Board develops additional goals.
