The member appointed by the GNSO, Heather Forrest, has indicated that she is unable to complete the remainder of the current two-year term, which ends in April 2023. 3. The GNSO Chair suggested to the GNSO Council that a member of the GNSO leadership team serve as an interim representative in this role and put forward<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2022-June/025724.html> Sebastien Ducos’ name for the role. 4.

On 15 June 2022, the GNSO Council approved<https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions/2020-current#20220615-1> unanimously the five Full Consensus recommendations from the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on Specific Curative Rights Protections for IGOs; 2. On 11 July 2022, as required under the ICANN Bylaws, a GNSO Council Recommendations Report to the ICANN Board<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2022/draft/draft-epdp-spe…> on the approved EPDP recommendations was submitted to the GNSO Council for its consideration.

Vote results<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2022/vote-result/gnso-cou…> 20220721-3 Initiation of the GNSO Guidance Process on Applicant Support (DEFERRED to August 2022 meeting) Submitted by: Philippe Fouquart Seconded by: Sebastien Ducos Whereas, 1. In February 2021, the GNSO Council approved the consensus Affirmations, Recommendations, and Implementation Guidance (collectively referred to as "Outputs") of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures (SubPro) PDP. 2. In September 2021, the ICANN Board directed the ICANN og to organize the resources required to begin work on an Operational Design Phase (ODP) and the ODP launched on 3 January 2022. 3. The ICANN org ODP Team identified a concern related to the Applicant Support topic, where the SubPro Final Report envisioned that a dedicated Implementation Review Team (IRT) would be responsible for performing substantive work; the ODP Team submitted a set of questions<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/subpro-odp/2022-February/000033.html> to the GNSO Council, asking whether the work required to implement Applicant Support may be beyond the scope envisioned for IRTs. 4. The GNSO Council responded<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/subpro-odp/attachments/20220526/8ffa36fc/GNS…> to the ODP Team, communicating that it would explore avenues to perform work as envisaged by the SubPro Final Report. 5. The GNSO Council discussed and agreed that the GNSO Guidance Process (GGP) would serve as an appropriate mechanism in order to provide additional guidance to support eventual implementation efforts. 6. The GNSO Council further agreed that the GGP should be limited to the single topic of Applicant support, with an allowance to add additional scope to the GGP subject to Council vote. 7. On 13 July 2022, the GGP Initiation Request<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2022-July/025817.html> was submitted to the GNSO Council. Resolved, 1. The GNSO Council approves the GNSO Guidance Process Initiation Request and initiates the GGP. 2. The GNSO Council directs staff to: 1. communicate the results of this motion to the GNSO SG/Cs as well as ICANN SO/ACs and invite them to identify Members for the Steering Group following the Steering Group composition described in the initiation request; 2. communicate the results of this motion to the ICANN Org GDS Team and invite them to identify at least one (1) staff liaison for the Steering Group; and 3. launch a call for expressions of interest seeking interested candidates to Chair the Steering Group.

Re: [council] [gnso-secs] Motion for the Initiation of the GNSO Guidance Process on Applicant Support
by Devan Reed 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

Dear Kurt, Thank you for proposing this amendment. Next steps are as follows: Philippe Fouquart and Sebastien Ducos, as submitter and seconder of the motion, will consider it and come back to council either: - accepting the amendment as friendly, at which point the Council during the July monthly meeting will vote on the amended motion text - not accepting the amendment as friendly, at which point the Council will first vote on the proposed amendment. There will then be a second vote either on the motion text as originally submitted, or as amended, pending the outcome of the first vote. Thank you. Kind regards, Devan From: Gnso-secs <gnso-secs-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of "kurt kjpritz.com via Gnso-secs" <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Reply-To: "kurt kjpritz.com" <kurt(a)kjpritz.com> Date: Friday, July 15, 2022 at 12:12 PM To: Fouquart <philippe.fouquart(a)orange.com>, "council(a)gnso.icann.org" <council(a)gnso.icann.org> Cc: "gnso-secs(a)icann.org" <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Subject: Re: [gnso-secs] [council] Motion for the Initiation of the GNSO Guidance Process on Applicant Support Hello Councilors: I am writing to offer an amendment to the Motion to initiate the GNSO Guidance Process (GGP). It is enough of a departure from the original that I don’t think it can / will be considered a friendly amendment. In any case, I think it’d be beneficial to the outcome if we debated the two approaches and decided on one. I think the discussion is as important as the outcome. The amendment more directly affects the GGP Initiation Request that is incorporated into the motion. It seeks to simplify the process for creating an Applicant Support Program. (An Initiation Request is a prerequisite to launching a GGP.) Background and Recent Developments: The SubPro Final Report recommended that a “dedicated IRT” be created to flesh out the Applicant Support Program. In response, the ODP Team expressed concern that the work recommended by SubPro was potentially out of scope of the role for an IRT and should be returned to the GNSO. The Council recognized that this work could be accomplished using the GNSO Guidance Process (GGP), which is flexible, i.e., adaptable to the needs of various policy-related tasks. The current motion calls for the creation of a 30-member (20 active, 10 alternate) Steering Committee to complete the Applicant Support program development with the added implication that this group could be used for additional policy / implementation issues. Recommendation: Rather than a Steering Committee, the Council should form a small team that works with ICANN to retain and employ the outside skills necessary to create the Applicant Support program framework. Rationale for this Recommendation: 1. We approved the SubPro Final Report, so we should do what it says. The Report advised that a community-based team would not possess the requisite skills to develop the Applicant Support program and an issue-specific team with the necessary outside skillsets should be formed. Creating a 30-member community team is, at best, an unnecessary step and, more likely, is the antithesis of the SubPro Report direction and disrespectful of valuable volunteer time. 2. Creating a small team does not contradict the participatory, bottom-up model. The broad community discussed this topic for five years and provided the best direction it could, to take the discussion out from under the community umbrella. In any event, no GNSO stakeholder group would be precluded from sending a member to this small team, and whatever Applicant Support program is recommended, the community will have the opportunity to discuss it prior to adoption. 3. Nor is a standing 30-person Steering Committee likely to be an economical or effective approach if asked to consider additional issues. This steering committee likely would be populated by those interested in the Applicant Support program and not have the necessary skill sets for, or interest in, tackling different issues. Community members interested in subsequent issues would likely be closed out of participating because the committee would be populated by those interested in the Applicant Support program. So, the 30-member committee, already demonstrated to be inefficient for the purpose of sorting the Applicant Support issues, would also be ineffectual on the subsequent issues. 4. This is likely to be an extended commitment on the part of our depleted volunteer workforce. Cannot we, as managers of the policy process, manage these important areas of policy / implementation administration, and reserve volunteers’ valuable time for substantive work? In the meantime, we can launch this first-ever GGP effort, keep it narrow to make it efficient, and learn from it. I’ve attached an alternative GGP Initiation Request. Amendments and additional discussion are welcome Sincerely, Kurt On Jul 13, 2022, at 3:46 AM, philippe.fouquart--- via council <council(a)gnso.icann.org<mailto:council@gnso.icann.org>> wrote: Dear Councilors, Please find attached the GNSO Guidance Process associated with the motion circulated on Monday.

A couple of additional things that leadership would like to draw your attention to in case you’d have an opinion: * the need for the GNSO Liaison to the ODP to be a (non voting) member (that’s under 5.) * the explicit acknowledgement that this group may deliver their results after the conclusion of the ODP or even the Board’s vote.
