Hi Paul, Thanks for the question. The short answer is that the small team’s suggestions regarding Issues of Importance will follow soon. There is a different document for that work. The Board-GAC meeting only focuses on the Advice items, so that is where there is time pressure to make the Tuesday deadline. There is more time to weigh in on Issues of Importance. I hope this helps.

GNSO Council Decision to Defer RPMs Phase 2 for 18 Months
by Julie Hedlund April 4, 2023

April 4, 2023

Dear Councilors, This is in response to an action item for the GNSO Council captured following the 16 February 2023 Council meeting to provide a rationale for the Council’s decision to defer next steps on the RPMs PDP Phase 2 (UDRP Review) for 18 months. As you may recall, the Council previously discussed the need to review the RPMs charter in advance of launching Phase 2 of the PDP. The Council determined that a Policy Status Report (PSR) should be requested from ICANN org, in order to better understand if new issues or information has emerged that would be relevant to a comprehensive review of the policy. ICANN org’s Global Domains and Strategy (GDS) team completed the PSR<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/udrp-stat…> and shared it with the Council for discussion during the July 2022 meeting. Discussions in subsequent meetings seemed to indicate support from the Council to delay next steps based on a number of reasons, but primarily because of the amount of competing work. The Council agreed during its November 2022 meeting that because of the launch of the Phase 1 RPMs Implementation Review Team (IRT), which would likely have overlapping community support with a Phase 2 PDP, the delay for next steps should be tied to the completion or key milestones for the IRT. During its meeting on 16 February 2023, the GNSO Council agreed to defer next steps on the RPMs PDP Phase 2 for 18 months and to provide a rationale for its decision. Accordingly, the reasons for the deferral are that the IRT will occupy the same people and staff as Phase 2, and the IRT is expected to take about 18 months to complete its work. Thus, to avoid overloading community and staff resources, the Council agreed that it is preferable to pause Phase 2 until the IRT has concluded its work. The Council also emphasized that this timeframe is consistent with that which it had suggested in its previous discussions, and that the 18-month deferral could always be revisited if the IRT were to take more, or less, time to complete. This deferral will be added to the consent agenda for the GNSO Council meeting on 20 April. Approval of the accompanying motion to defer will start the 18-month period from 20 April 2023. In accordance with standard procedure, motions for items on the consent agenda will be submitted by Council leadership to the GNSO Council list by Monday, 10 April, the document and motion deadline. Kind regards, Julie Julie Hedlund sent on behalf of GNSO Council Leaders

This program is a joint effort of the ICANN ecosystem to identify and track trends that are related to ICANN. This ensures that the opportunities and challenges are incorporated into current and future planning. Once trends are identified, ICANN will conduct a trend analysis and impact assessment. Significant shifts could result in adjustments to the strategic plan. Moreover, new trends or shifts in existing trends also impact the operating plans (five-year or annual) and/or budget, and are factored into the annual iteration of those plans as appropriate. All strategic outlook sessions will be conducted virtually, and community members are encouraged to join this important discussion. We look forward to your participation in this dialogue about ICANN planning and strategy. Thank you for your support in the ICANN planning process. ACTION ITEM: Planning Prioritization Update The prioritization process is a step in the annual ICANN planning process, which will permit ICANN to receive input for the development of the FY25 Draft Plans. The Planning Prioritization Group comprises members of the ICANN stakeholder groups. ICANN is seeking from the chairs of the below stakeholder groups to nominate one member and one secondary-member by 7 April 2023: ASO | ALAC | GNSO/CSG | GNSO/CPH | GNSO/NCSG | ccNSO | GAC | RSSAC | SSAC The scope of activities to be prioritized are the Board-approved implementation work, such as PDP recommendations, Specific Review recommendations and the implementation of other non-policy and advice work. Please email the name of the members that you have nominated to planning(a)icann.org<mailto:planning@icann.org>, with a copy to the Policy Strategic Management team (policy-strat-mgt(a)icann.org<mailto:policy-strat-mgt@icann.org>). Moreover, ICANN has published the Planning Prioritization Framework (Version 3) on the ICANN Finance and Planning Community wiki workspace here (Planning Prioritization [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010QiWiIcASRvau9cm…> Framework V3 [r20.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010QiWiIcASRvau9cm…>). The key elements of the framework have not changed; however, based on feedback received from a lessons learned session with the members of the FY24 planning prioritization process, ICANN has incorporated several recommendations into version 3.
