Dear Councilors,

In an effort to keep track of Council’s requests and letters sent to ICANN Org and Board (and the responses we’ve received), Council Leadership plans to periodically send a summary of outstanding items (see below). Some of these items will be on the agenda for February’s meeting, but we thought it might be useful to see them in a single place. Please bring concerns or items we’ve missed to February’s Council meeting for discussion.

Council Requests:

Council Request (January 2024 GNSO Meeting): Timeline and plan for restarting the PPSAI IRT

ICANN Response: Update and timeline will be provided at ICANN 79

Proposed Next Steps: Send reminder to ICANN Staff that Council is expecting a detailed briefing and timeline on this topic at ICANN 79

Council Request (October 2023 GNSO Meeting): Timeline and plan for releasing reserved IGO acronyms

ICANN Response: Work is underway, but no clear timeline or workplan provided to date

Proposed Next Steps: Press ICANN Staff for a substantive update and timeline at ICANN 79

Council Request: (Multiple Council Meetings in 2023): Timeline for completion of DPA between ICANN and Contracted Parties.

ICANN Response: Work in progress; no clear timeline.

Proposed Next Steps: Press ICANN Staff for a substantive update and timeline at ICANN 79. Remind them that Council has work that is impacted by the delay in executing this agreement.

Council Letters:

Council Letter: Update regarding closed generics (link).

ICANN Response: Letter from Tripti Sinha addressing questions related to closed generics (link).

Proposed Next Steps: Close this work off of Council’s worry list; remove from ADR.

Council Letter: Request for continued dialogue re: Board Resolutions 2023.10.26.11 and 2023.10.26.12 (link)

ICANN Response: None.

Proposed Next Steps: Write again to ICANN Board and ask for them to engage in this dialogue.

We hope this summary is helpful.

Thanks,

Greg
