Dear councilors, For information to those at council who may be unaware of this minority statement and for those who are, who may also be interested in the (matter-of-factly) notification of that report to the ccNSO council. Regards, Philippe From: Ccnso-council [mailto:ccnso-council-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Stephen Deerhake @ ASNIC Sent: Friday, May 29, 2020 6:28 AM To: ccNSO-Council@icann.org Subject: [ccnso-council] A further update on the Final Report of the CCWG new gTLD Auction Proceeds Working Group Greetings fellow Council Members, As a follow-up to my correspondence regarding the circulation of the Final Report of the new gTLD Auction Proceeds Cross Community Working Group to the CCWG that I sent to you yesterday, please permit me to provide you an update. A minority statement has been formally filed by the Commercial Stakeholders Group (CSG) from the GNSO. It’s pretty brutal with it’s objection to the “consensus” adoption of Mechanism A, which I described in my previous correspondence. It challenges the “consensus” expressed in the final report. This objection comes from the Intellectual Property Constituency (IPC). Whether it becomes a formal appendix to the CCWG final report, or is referenced as a URL to the CCWG Wiki, is an open question, to be determined by the CCWG Co-chairs. I have advised our ccNSO elected ICANN Board members of this development, as the IPC objection makes specific demands of the ICANN Board. Best Regards, Stephen Deerhake AS Domain Registry _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
