NEW: CSC Findings on PTI Performance for November 2019
From: Lars-Johan Liman, CSC Chair
As chair of the Customer Standing Committee (CSC), I am providing you with our latest monthly findings on the performance of Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) over
November 2019. I am pleased to inform you that the CSC has concluded that PTI’s overall performance over November 2019 was “Excellent” - PTI met 100% of the service level agreements over the month of November 2019. The related PTI report to the CSC, listing
the individual service level metrics along with their actual and historical performance, can be found
here
[r20.rs6.net].
I am also very pleased to provide you an update on the two outstanding Service Level Agreement (SLA) changes:
1.
In accordance with the SLA change procedure, the CSC was informed that PTI has completed implementation of the new SLA on processing times for Internationalized
Domain Name Tables and is now recording data accordingly. The performance against this new SLA will be presented in the report over December 2019 and presented to the CSC at its January meeting.
2.
With respect to the second SLA listed in the CSC Findings Report, the Country Code Top-Level Domain Creation/Transfer – Validation and Reviews: SLA Amendments,
the CSC was informed that based on Public Comment there is no need to adjust the proposed SLA. In accordance with the
SLA
change process [r20.rs6.net], PTI and CSC will now have to formally agree on the new SLA and then CSC will request the Councils of the Country Code Names Supporting
Organization and Generic Names Supporting Organization to approve the changes.
Both SLA changes are explained in more detail in the October 2019 CSC Findings Report.
Generally, the CSC regular meeting is scheduled on or around the 15th every month, and the CSC Findings Report on the PTI performance is sent out shortly after that
meeting. If you would like to be informed of upcoming meetings or receive CSC reports directly, you may want to subscribe to our
announce
list [r20.rs6.net]. We welcome any comments on our reporting to you.
The CSC became effective 1 October 2016. Background information on the committee along with transcripts of our meetings and other useful information can be found
here

Opportunity for Strategic Outlook Trends Identification Sessions at ICANN67
Executive:
Theresa Swinehart, Senior Vice President, Multistakeholder Strategy and Strategic Initiatives
ICANN org will hold Strategic Outlook Trends Identification sessions with the community at ICANN67.
To prepare for that exercise, ICANN org will be seeking community feedback on possible formats and arrangements which will be sent through each community group’s leadership.
The Strategic

to make sure that relating opportunities and challenges are incorporated into ICANN's current and future strategy. New trends or shifts in existing trends impacting the operating plans (five-year or annual), and/or budget, will be factored into the annual
iteration of those plans as appropriate. Significant shifts could also result in adjustments to the strategic plan.
