Councilors -

Please note that I haven’t received any objections or concerns raised to the proposal in the thread below.  As a result, we’ll proceed with Tony & Jonathan as GNSO representatives to this Drafting Team.

Thanks—

J.

Thanks, Tony.  Noted.

Also:  prior to stepping down from the Council, Jonathan Robinson had indicated a willingness/interest to participate in this Drafting Team.  If there are no objections, I think we would be fortunate to have him contribute to this effort along with Tony.

And please keep in mind Markia’s note below:  the intention is to keep the Drafting Team small, with just 2 participants from each SO/AC.  I expect that the actually CCWG that follows will be a larger group and comprised of participants from across the GNSO, and the broader ICANN community.

Thanks—

J.

Dear All,

Please find attached for your review and consideration the updated new gTLD Auction Proceeds Discussion Paper which has been updated to reflect the contributions received in response to the public comment forum. As outlined in the document, as there was general support for proceeding with a CCWG, the proposed next step is to go back to each of the ICANN SO/ACs to confirm their interest to participate in this effort and request up to 2 volunteers for the drafting team to develop a charter which is to be submitted for review and adoption to all the potential chartering organizations. You can find the public comment review tool which outlines the input received and how it has or is expected to be addressed in Annex B of the report. For those interested, I can also provide a redline version, but as some sections moved around it may appear as more changes were made than in reality happened.

Best regards,

Marika
