Dear All,

 

One of the outcomes of the Operations and Organisation meeting that GNSO Council Leadership held with ICANN staff in Amsterdam earlier this year, was to develop an online template to complete the request for an Issue Report. The objective of this tool is to encourage requestors to gather as much information as possible and engage in early discussions with others prior to submitting a request for an Issue Report. The hope is that by encouraging completion of all the information requested in the template, it will be possible to identify what information may still be needed and encourage collaboration between different interested parties at an early stage.

 

You can find the wiki template page here: https://community.icann.org/x/GQllAg. The template can be completed by either by following the instructions or by downloading the word template from the same page. The idea would be that once completed, Council members can either create a PDF and submit that together with a motion to the Council mailing list, or insert the relevant wiki link in the motion. Please note that this template is tailored to requests for Issue Reports as defined in the PDP Manual. 

 

Please note that this template is still in draft form. Feel free to try out the wiki template by following the instructions on the page. We can subsequently delete any 'practice pages' that are generated. Following your feedback, we can make any changes as deemed appropriate and draft a short announcement explaining the form's purpose, usage and relevant links. We can also add a link to the wiki page from the GNSO home page or any other reference locations that would be appropriate.

 

We look forward to receiving your feedback.

With best regards,

Marika
