GNSO Council Wrap-Up Proposed Agenda
by Steve Chan March 16, 2023

March 16, 2023

Dear Councilors, The suggested agenda for tomorrow’s wrap-up is: 1. SubPro small team assignment (triage of pending recommendations) 2. SubPro IRT composition 3. GNSO Council review of the GAC Communique 4. AOB Given that the list of items appears shorter than normal, Council leadership is thinking that with the broad interest in agenda item 1, the first discussion could take place with the full Council, instead of trying to scramble and find a room at the last moment. In order to prepare for that item, interested Councilors should review the document the Board shared regarding the recommendations marked as pending here: https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/presentation/outputs… For item 2, Councilors should review the draft proposal staff circulated regarding the open and representative model, available here: https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/draft/draft-open-rep… If you have any concerns about the agenda or wish to add additional items, please let us know.

Suggestion from GDS re: Representative + Open Model for the SubPro IRT
by Steve Chan March 15, 2023

March 15, 2023

Dear Councilors, During the GNSO Council meeting on 15 March, I noted that given some ambiguity and questions about what a Representative + Open model would mean in the context of an Implementation Review Team, I asked my colleagues in GDS to consider drafting some brief documentation to help with understanding. Attached, please find such guidance. When reviewing, I would remind you all that this proposal is nothing more than a suggestion to help enhance the efficiency of the SubPro IRT, given the long list of recommendations that will need to be implemented. However, if the Council objects to the suggestion and prefers the open model, the call for volunteers will of course reflect as such. Best, Steve Steven Chan  Senior Director, Policy Development Support & GNSO Relations Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) 12025 Waterfront Drive, Suite 300 Los Angeles, CA 90094-2536  Email: steve.chan(a)icann.org<mailto:steve.chan@icann.org> Skype: steve.chan55 Mobile: +1.310.339.4410 Find out more about the GNSO by visiting: https://learn.icann.org/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__learn.icann.org_&d=DwM…> Follow @GNSO on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ICANN_GNSO<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__twitter.com_ICANN-5FGN…> Transcripts and recordings of GNSO Working Group and Council events are located on the GNSO Master Calendar <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gnso.icann.org_en_grou…>

Such an audit can be performed much easier as it involves fewer actors.

Fwd: [Ext] Link for GNSO Closed session
by Anne ICANN March 15, 2023

March 15, 2023

Per Julie's note below, the informal session of Council was apparently originally planned without services for remote participants. Traditionally these informal closed sessions for Council during meetings are quite important so hopefully it will be noted in the future that remote participation should always be an option for Council members. (There was also an unfortunate last minute switch in the Zoom room link.)

SubPro Small Team
by Sebastien＠registry.godaddy March 14, 2023

March 14, 2023

Dear Council Colleagues, I wanted to use some time tomorrow during our Informal Council Session to advance our conversation on the SubPro small team. Following the few discussions we had with the Board on what they are looking for, following the discussion we had a week ago prior to getting to Cancun on the very idea of a small team, but also following 3 days of intense discussions on the SubPro topic I wanted to propose a few principle: 1. We, the GNSO Council, are asked by the Board to review a number of topics. The responses we will return will be GNSO Council responses. The small team should be tasked with formulating GNSO Council responses. 2. We want to be able to move fast, but given the importance of the topic of SubPro to the entire Community, we want to be diligent, thoughtful and transparent. 3. There is a strong interest from other SOACs to participate in these discussions and to have a voice. It is legitimate and I think we need to be able to hear those. 4. The small team that is gathered should, by definition, remain small, and I think focussed on Councillors. 5. We have identified that given the technicity of a large number of topics at hand, the small team should be able to consult with Subject Matter Experts from within the Council and beyond. 6. The small team will need to integrate with its peers on the Board and from ICANN Org. We should have about 20-30 minutes on this during our discussions tomorrow. I would like to be able to come from it with a clear view of what this small team may be, to engage our counterparts and start working as early as possible. Kindly, Sebastien Ducos GoDaddy Registry | Senior Client Services Manager [signature_3228593622] +33612284445 France & Australia sebastien(a)registry.godaddy<mailto:sebastien@registry.godaddy>
