Here are the reasons in more detail as to why I cannot accept
the amendments as friendly. The provisions added are in italics, and my
comments are in ALL CAPS below Wolf’s added provisions:
e) Discuss and propose methods for coordinating any assistance
volunteered by providers (consultants, translators, technicians, etc.); match
services to qualified applicants; broker these relationships and review the
operational quality of the relationship.
THIS CONCEPT WAS COVERED ALREADY IN MY (E) WHICH STATES: “e) Propose methods for applicants to seek out
assistance from other top-level domain consultants, translators, and
technicians, in the application for, and administration of, a new top-level
domain)”. THE RYSG AND RRSG DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS GROUP HAS THE EXPERTISE,
KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE TO “MATCH SERVICES TO QUALIFIED APPLICANTS”, NOR IS IT
APPROPRIATE FOR THIS WORKING GROUP TO “BROKER THESE RELATIONSHIPS AND REVIEW
THE OPERATIONAL QUALITY OF THE RELATIONSHIP.”
f) Propose methods for coordinating cooperation among qualified
applicants, and assistance volunteered by third parties.
THIS IS SEEMINGLY COVERED BY MY PROPOSED (E) TO THE EXTENT IN SCOPE.
g) In cooperation with ICANN Staff and donor experts propose policies and
practices for fundraising and for establishing links to possible donor
agencies. This activity may include assisting in the establishment of initial relationships
with any donor(s) who may be able to help in first round with funding
THIS AGAIN SEEMS TO EXPAND THE SCOPE OF THIS WORKING GROUP TO “ESTABLISH
LINKS TO DONOR AGENCIES AND ASSISTING IN THE ESTABLISHMENT OF INITIAL
RELATIONSHIPS. HOW IS THIS A POLICY ACTIVITY?
h) Review the basis of the US$100,000 application base fee to determine
its full origin and to propose a percentage of that fee could be waived for
applicants meeting the requirements for assistance. Work with the ICANN new
gTLD implementation staff to determine how the fee waivers would be
accommodated.
ICANN HAS ALREADY PROVIDED SUBSTANTIAL
DOCUMENTATION AS TO WHERE THIS FEE HAS BEEN DERIVED AND SOLICITED COMMENTS
THROUGH AT LEAST FIVE ROUNDS OF COMMENTS ALREADY ON THIS. THE LAST SENTENCE “WORK
WITH THE ICANN NEW GTLD IMPLEMENTATION TO DETERMINE HOW THE FEE WAIVERS WOULD
BE ACCOMMODATED”. THIS ALSO DOES NOT SEEM TO US TO BE A POLICY ISSUE AND
THEREFORE BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THE GNSO.
i) Design mechanisms to encourage the build out of
Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) in small or underserved languages.
THIS LAST ONE IS STILL UNDER DISCUSSION
WITH THE RYSG AND A FORM OF THIS WE (THE RYSG) COULD CONSIDER ADDING AS A
FRIENDLY AMENDMENT. ALTHOUGH THE RYSG CERTAINLY IS NOT AGAINST ENCOURAGING THE
BUILD OUT OF IDNS, THE QUESTION WAS WHETHER THIS WAS AN APPROPRIATE ACTIVITY OF
A GNSO-SPONSORED GROUP. OTHERS IN THE RYSG FEEL LIKE THERE MAY BE SOME MIDDLE
GROUND HERE AND WE ARE THEREFORE WORKING ON IT.
I hope that helps explain my thinking
with respect to Wolf’s proposed amendments.
Thanks.

Subject: [gnso-chairs] Alternate Motion on JAS
All,
I am going on vacation, but I want to make sure that I do not miss the deadline to introduce motions for the January 13th Meeting. So I would like to introduce this Motion as a completely new alternate motion. Can I ask as a favor that unless you hear otherwise, can you please post this by the motion deadline? I have attached a redlined version of my motion to the version proposed by Rafik for those on the Council that want to see what was done.
Thanks!
