Subject: Re: [gnso-chairs] Draft Report - EPDP Ph 1 Rec 27 (Wave 1.5)
Dear all,
Further to my note below, I am sharing attached the EPDP Phase 1 Recommendation 27 Wave 1.5 Report for consideration by the GNSO Council. As noted below, we circulated the draft on 12 January with the Phase 1 Implementation Review Team (IRT) for feedback. IRT members provided some comments and those have been incorporated into the relevant sections.
As noted below, this report covers both the Proxy/Privacy (PPSAI) and Translation/Transliteration (T/T) policy recommendations and areas impacted by the EPDP Phase 1 recommendations.
As these areas have quite a bit of history and background, we spent some time on an IRT call to introduce and provide context to the report. If helpful, I would be glad to offer a similar briefing to the Council or a subset, or to answer any questions you may have.
Best regards,
Karen

Subject: Draft Report - EPDP Ph 1 Rec 27 (Wave 1.5)
Dear Philippe, Tatiana, Pam,
I am sharing for your information the attached draft report for Wave 1.5 of the EPDP Phase 1 recommendation 27, impacted policies and procedures. Please note that this is in draft form and we are sharing with the Phase 1 Implementation Review Team (IRT) for their review, which may result in some changes to the report. However, we expect it will also be useful for your awareness and in planning the GNSO’s upcoming work.
Some summary points are below:
Background
- The EPDP Ph 1 Recommendation 27 specified the need to identify and address all policies and procedures that might be affected by the EPDP Phase 1 policy recommendations and the new Registration Data Policy.
- ICANN org has performed a detailed review of a set of existing policies and procedures and has drafted this Wave 1.5 report, which provides an analysis of the impacted areas identified as well as potential changes to address the impact.
- Impacts may include outdated provision language, higher-level issues such as the relevance or inconsistency of an existing policy or procedure with the new Registration Data Policy, or implications for existing contractual provisions.
- The Recommendation 27 work is being completed in multiple waves. A follow-up to this report (Wave 2) is in process now and will cover the relevant (non-policy) procedures impacted by the Phase 1 recommendations.
- The items in this report (Wave 1.5) are policy recommendations that were approved by the Board and had implementation work in progress, prior to being paused due to the advent of GDPR and the EPDP. These are Privacy & Proxy Services Accreditation Issues and Translation/Transliteration of Contact Information.
- ICANN org has conducted the relevant analysis for Recommendation 27 in “waves” as follows:
- Wave 1 – covered existing consensus policies in effect, was shared with the IRT in January 2020 and the GNSO Council in February 2020.
- Wave 1.5 – covering policy recommendations approved but not yet implemented (attached)
- Wave 2 – covering procedures (e.g., data escrow, Trademark Clearinghouse), in progress.
Next steps:
- The draft report is being shared with the EPDP Phase 1 IRT currently working with ICANN org on implementation of the policy recommendations, for completeness and validation that the GNSO is the appropriate path for the items included in the report.
- Following this review step, the report, with any updates from the IRT review, will be submitted to the GNSO Council for determination on next steps.
Please let us know of any questions.
Best regards,
Karen
