Registration Data Accuracy Scoping Team Project Plan
by Berry Cobb Nov. 8, 2021

Nov. 8, 2021

Dear GNSO Council, Please find attached the proposed project plan for the Registration Data Accuracy Scoping Team. Here are a few comments from the Chair for you to consider when reviewing this plan: * The RDA_ST is setting an aspirational goal to deliver its report to the GNSO Council by ICANN75 and the GNSO Council’s Motions & Documents deadline of 11 Sep 2022. * Assignments #1 & #2 will be worked on mostly in parallel and are scheduled to conclude 24 Jan 2022. * The EPDP will spend the month of February to determine next steps and exactly what must be done to complete Assignment #3. This assignment is the most elusive at this point, as it has a pure dependency to Assignments #1 &#2. The Leadership team is hopeful clarity will be gained as we become further informed by the work from the first two assignments, but for now it is scheduled to be completed by May 2022. * At ICANN73, the Leadership team will engage/update with the GNSO Council to confirm or change the timeline as more clarity about the deliverables from Assignment #3 are achieved. Thank you. B Berry Cobb Policy Development - Portfolio Manager Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) berry.cobb(a)icann.org From: GNSO-Accuracy-ST <gnso-accuracy-st-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of Marika Konings <marika.konings(a)icann.org> Date: Tuesday, November 2, 2021 at 10:15 To: "gnso-accuracy-st(a)icann.org" <gnso-accuracy-st(a)icann.org> Subject: [GNSO-Accuracy-ST] Proposed Agenda - Accuracy Scoping Team meeting #4 on Thursday 4 November at 13.00 UTC Dear All, Please find below the proposed agenda for the next Registration Data Accuracy Scoping Team which is scheduled for Thursday 4 November at 13.00 UTC. Best regards, Caitlin, Berry and Marika Registration Data Accuracy Scoping Team – Meeting #4 Thursday 4 November at 13.00 UTC 1. Welcome & Chair Updates * Council non-objection to appointing alternates and vice-chair * Appointment of Council liaison * Adjustment of call time & duration from next week onwards to accommodate for DST 1. Proposed Work plan & timeline * Review proposed work plan & timeline * Confirm next steps 1. Working definition of accuracy From assignment #1: “The Scoping Team shall, with reference to the resources that will be included in the index of relevant resources cited below, consider whether there is an agreed definition of registration data accuracy and, if not, consider what working definitions should be used in the context of the Scoping Team's deliberations. Particular attention should be given to the definition that ICANN Compliance employs for “accuracy” in ICANN’s contracts. Note, this does not preclude any subsequent effort from formalising the definition(s) that should be applied in the context of any existing and/or new accuracy requirements that may be developed”. * Review input received on definition (see page 12 - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1k9fvA4gnb13bNbB8O4o72mXMZ8mQnJGC/edit [docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/document/d/1k9fvA4gnb13b…>) * Consider whether in addition to working definition focused on current application, input should be requested on aspirational definitions to identify perceived gap between current definition and aspirational definition * Scoping team input * Confirm next steps 1. Follow up questions to ICANN org regarding enforcement and Accuracy Reporting System * Note additional information added to the index of relevant resources from RDS-WHOIS2 RT, including responses to questions * Input received from scoping team to date: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1arlKdQkbRkE1LuurmDdd-PZP184_AdFm/edit [docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/document/d/1arlKdQkbRkE1…> * Scoping team input * Confirm deadline for submission of questions 1. Confirm action items & next meeting (Thursday 11 November at 14.00 UTC)

Re: [council] Small team - Modifying Consensus Policies from ICANN org

With the attachment, And my apologies. Regards, Philippe -------- Message d'origine -------- De : FOUQUART Philippe INNOV/NET <philippe.fouquart(a)orange.com> Date : 07/11/2021 20:18 (GMT+01:00) À : council(a)gnso.icann.org, Heather Forrest <haforrestesq(a)gmail.com>, "Cole, Mason (Perkins Coie)" <MCole(a)perkinscoie.com>, Wolf-Ulrich Knoben <Wolf-Ulrich.Knoben(a)t-online.de>, Bruna Martins dos Santos <bruna.mrtns(a)gmail.com>, Raoul Plommer <plommer(a)gmail.com>, aheineman(a)godaddy.com, "Demetriou, Samantha" <sdemetriou(a)verisign.com>, chair(a)rysg.info, Sue Schuler <secretariat(a)rysg.info>, Zoe Bonython <secretariat(a)icannregistrars.org>, Benjamin Akinmoyeje <benakin(a)gmail.com> Cc : gnso-secs(a)icann.org Objet : Small team - Modifying Consensus Policies from ICANN org Dear SG/C Chairs, As you may be aware, we received a discussion draft of the attached paper, Modifying Consensus Policies from ICANN org on 23 October (see https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2021-October/025106.html) The ICANN organization has developed this paper as a thought exercise to share with the community for information and input on existing processes. The paper has been developed within the org, considering what procedures are in place for modifying consensus policies, and where there may be gaps, ambiguities, or opportunities for additional collaboration. The message also notes that the ICANN Board has expressed interest in understanding these processes and discussing possible mechanisms to address where there are identified and agreed needs for greater clarity or elaboration. As the GNSO’s processes are interwoven with those of the Board and org in the consensus policy lifecycle, the org is seeking input from GNSO stakeholders before taking this paper to the Board. The Council discussed during its wrap up session at ICANN72 that, as this touches upon the GNSO PDP, it would be important to engage on this topic with SG/Cs. As a result, we would like to invite you to identify a representative to join the small team that is in the process of forming (see small team assignment document attached). Please let gnso-secs know by 10 November at the latest who from your group will be joining this effort as the small team is expected to commence its discussions shortly thereafter.
