To the extent you may find it helpful, I attach the note I sent to the Board with my personal responses to each of the items.  I have also drafted a paper on item 3.1:  Applications assessed in rounds if you would like to review (https://www.jjnsolutions.com/post/icann-new-gtlds-rounds-the-steady-state-of-new-gtld-applications).

 

I drafted both of these in my personal capacity and not with respect to any role I currently have or have had in the past.  Though serving as a co-chair of SubPro was helpful.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jeff

Subject: [council] GNSO Council Wrap-Up Proposed Agenda

 

Dear Councilors,

 

The suggested agenda for tomorrow’s wrap-up is:

 

  1. SubPro small team assignment (triage of pending recommendations)
  2. SubPro IRT composition
  3. GNSO Council review of the GAC Communique
  4. AOB

 

Given that the list of items appears shorter than normal, Council leadership is thinking that with the broad interest in agenda item 1, the first discussion could take place with the full Council, instead of trying to scramble and find a room at the last moment. In order to prepare for that item, interested Councilors should review the document the Board shared regarding the recommendations marked as pending here: https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/presentation/outputs-that-the-board-marks-as-pending-28feb23-en.pdf

 

For item 2, Councilors should review the draft proposal staff circulated regarding the open and representative model, available here: https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/draft/draft-open-rep-model-irt-15mar23-en.pdf

 

If you have any concerns about the agenda or wish to add additional items, please let us know.

 

Best,

Steve
