Dear Councilors,
I’m following up on the email below regarding the
working document which includes the agendas for the various Council related meetings, such as the GNSO working sessions and joint meetings. I’d like to highlight a couple portions below (but please comment on any section of the document).
First I would like to confirm the single topic suggested by the Council for the joint meeting between the ICANN Board and GNSO Council. The topic is: Preliminary discussion of Board Statement not-adopting certain SubPro recommendations.
The Council’s topic(s) must be communicated to the Board by 11 October.
Note, this engagement is expected to serve as at least the first meeting to discuss the Board Statement as required by Annex A, Section 9 (c) of the ICANN Bylaws, referenced in Tripti’s
letter to the Council. Holding this meeting would not preclude additional discussion at a later time, as deemed necessary. In order to support this topic, the Council’s SubPro Pending Recommendations small team is concentrating on a
working document that first and foremost, identifies clarifying questions to discuss with the Board. In addition, the working document identifies which of the non-adopted recommendations that the small would like to try and modify in order to address the
Board’s concerns, as well as a high-level understanding of what that modification could look like.
The second reason for follow-up is to draw attention to the second GNSO Working Session where the GNSO will meet with staff from the Global Domains and Strategy (GDS) team. While the GDS team will come prepared to provide an update, it
will be helpful if Councilors identify questions/comments in advance, in order to better support an active dialogue.
Thanks,
Greg

Dear Councilors,
For your planning purposes, please find this
working document which includes the agendas for the various Council related meetings, such as the GNSO working sessions and joint meetings. In particular, I’d like to draw your attention to the tab for the GNSO Council/Board session which currently has
one potential topic for the Council to suggest, and one Board proposed topic. The deadline to communicate topics for that Board/Council session is 11 October.
The other quick comment is that the latest and greatest Council/GAC proposed agenda is included. Jeff, apologies for potentially stealing your thunder!
If you have any questions or comments on any of the agendas, please share them on this list. And for the Council/Board session, please also consider whether additional topics are needed for the 60 minute session.
Best,
Steve
