Dear All, Per our discussion during the wrap up session, I can confirm that the Bylaws require that any changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures are subject to a minimum 21 day public comment period ('The GNSO Operating Procedures shall be effective upon the expiration of a twenty-one (21) day public comment period, and shall be subject to Board oversight and review' - see article X, section 3, item 4, http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#X).

Rather curious wording (and I admit I was around when this was adopted) in that there is a requirement for a Public COMMENT, but the rules take effect at the end of it regardless of the comments submitted. More like a Public Notice. Alan At 18/04/2013 08:30 AM, Marika Konings wrote:

For the record, for any changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures that are recommended by the SCI, the public comment forum is conducted as part of the SCI deliberations. The SCI does review the comments received and make any updates, if deemed appropriate based on its review of the public comments received, before the recommendations are submitted to the GNSO Council for consideration.

Thanks Marika, The current language of our Operating Procedures is: "Reports and motions should be submitted to the GNSO Council for inclusion on the agenda as soon as possible, but no later than 8 business days before the GNSO Council meeting." To provide precision and uniformity, I propose we amend it to: ..."no later than 23:59 UTC on the day 8 calendar days before the GNSO Council meeting." --Wendy -- Wendy Seltzer -- wendy@seltzer.org +1 617.863.0613 Policy Counsel, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Fellow, Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University Visiting Fellow, Yale Law School Information Society Project http://wendy.seltzer.org/ https://www.chillingeffects.org/ https://www.torproject.org/ http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/

All, I am in support of Wendy's wording (with a minor tweak) as follows: Reports and motions should be submitted to the GNSO Council for inclusion on the agenda as soon as possible, but no later than 23:59 UTC on the day, 8 calendar days before the GNSO Council meeting.

All, I'd like to close this off and move to posting it for public comment. My understanding is that we are agreed on 10 calendar days as this is global and meets what was originally intended. As far as a time-zone is concerned, we have two options: 1. Choose a fixed time zone in which the 23h59 cut-off occurs. There is no universally fair time zone to use for a global audience but UTC seems as close to a standard as we have. PST provides for a later sunset but is arguably less of a standard than UTC. OR 2. Agree that the cut-off is 10 calendar days (exactly) before the meeting occurs. This will mean that the time of the cut-off varies on a per meeting basis. This is probably most fair but could lead to confusion since it varies on a per meeting basis. Still, as long as the cut-off time is sent as part of the reminder in calling for motions, it seems reasonable. Any comments or inputs, please provide them ASAP before we move to public comment.

All, I'll go with Jonathan's option 2, since we are all in different time zones it wouldn't matter that the deadline changes for every meeting, as long as it is made clear in every occasion. But I'll go with the majority position. If option 1 is chosen I think that the fixed time-zone should be UTC.

Hi, Since I proposed the reconfiguration to give people the clearest notice of when motions were due, I'd recommend option 1. I recognize that the amount of time wouldn't be quite the same from month to month, but the deadline would be fixed. (I preferred 8 calendar days, but 10 is a fine compromise.) --Wendy On 04/29/2013 03:02 PM, WUKnoben wrote:

Hi,
Since I proposed the reconfiguration to give people the clearest notice of when motions were due, I'd recommend option 1. I recognize that the amount of time wouldn't be quite the same from month to month, but the deadline would be fixed. (I preferred 8 calendar days, but 10 is a fine compromise.)

All,
I'd like to close this off and move to posting it for public comment.
My understanding is that we are agreed on 10 calendar days as this is global and meets what was originally intended.
As far as a time-zone is concerned, we have two options:
1. Choose a fixed time zone in which the 23h59 cut-off occurs. There is no universally fair time zone to use for a global audience but UTC seems as close to a standard as we have. PST provides for a later sunset but is arguably less of a standard than UTC.
OR
2. Agree that the cut-off is 10 calendar days (exactly) before the meeting occurs. This will mean that the time of the cut-off varies on a per meeting basis. This is probably most fair but could lead to confusion since it varies on a per meeting basis. Still, as long as the cut-off time is sent as part of the reminder in calling for motions, it seems reasonable.
Any comments or inputs, please provide them ASAP before we move to public comment.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Right, so we seem to be settling on option 1, a fixed time zone. Just need to settle on which - UTC or PST and then we can put it out for standard comment. I think UTC since so much of our communication still refers to this at least. Given our meetings are at variable times, it should be approximately fair overall.

I think UTC since so much of our communication still refers to this at least. Given our meetings are at variable times, it should be approximately fair overall.

Hi,
Since I proposed the reconfiguration to give people the clearest notice of when motions were due, I'd recommend option 1. I recognize that the amount of time wouldn't be quite the same from month to month, but the deadline would be fixed. (I preferred 8 calendar days, but 10 is a fine compromise.)

All,
I'd like to close this off and move to posting it for public comment.
My understanding is that we are agreed on 10 calendar days as this is global and meets what was originally intended.
As far as a time-zone is concerned, we have two options:
1. Choose a fixed time zone in which the 23h59 cut-off occurs. There is no universally fair time zone to use for a global audience but UTC seems as close to a standard as we have. PST provides for a later sunset but is arguably less of a standard than UTC.
OR
2. Agree that the cut-off is 10 calendar days (exactly) before the meeting occurs. This will mean that the time of the cut-off varies on a per meeting basis. This is probably most fair but could lead to confusion since it varies on a per meeting basis. Still, as long as the cut-off time is sent as part of the reminder in calling for motions, it seems reasonable.
Any comments or inputs, please provide them ASAP before we move to public comment.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Thanks Volker, Please expand a little to clarify your concern OR can it be answered by one or both the following two possible tweaks here: 1. We convert 8 business days to 10 calendar days which seems broadly consistent with the intent of the original wording and yet achieves the global meaning. 2. We make it exactly 10 calendar days i.e. we have a variable cut-off time depending on the time of the meeting. (Downside to this is that 23h59 UTC is always the same, therefore easily memorable. However, a variable time should work provided it is always clearly stated in the notice).

The current language of our Operating Procedures is: "Reports and motions should be submitted to the GNSO Council for inclusion on the agenda as soon as possible, but no later than 8 business days before the GNSO Council meeting."
To provide precision and uniformity, I propose we amend it to: ..."no later than 23:59 UTC on the day 8 calendar days before the GNSO Council

Hi Jonathan, it is not really a concern, I just thought it may be worthwhile considering not to over-regulate. I am fine with the proposal, if there is consensus that we need it. A change to calendar days does make sense as business days vary. Volker
Thanks Volker,
Please expand a little to clarify your concern OR can it be answered by one or both the following two possible tweaks here:
1. We convert 8 business days to 10 calendar days which seems broadly consistent with the intent of the original wording and yet achieves the global meaning. 2. We make it exactly 10 calendar days i.e. we have a variable cut-off time depending on the time of the meeting. (Downside to this is that 23h59 UTC is always the same, therefore easily memorable. However, a variable time should work provided it is always clearly stated in the notice).

While I support this in general, I am not sure we really need such a policy. The proposed language cuts the time available for bringing motions short for our American councillors compared to right now.

I support Wendy's language.

All,
I am in support of Wendy's wording (with a minor tweak) as follows:
Reports and motions should be submitted to the GNSO Council for inclusion on the agenda as soon as possible, but no later than 23:59 UTC on the day, 8 calendar days before the GNSO Council meeting.
Any concerns or objections, please raise ASAP otherwise I suggest we post for public comment.
Jonathan

Dear All,
Per our discussion during the wrap up session, I can confirm that the Bylaws require that any changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures are subject to a minimum 21 day public comment period ('The GNSO Operating Procedures shall be effective upon the expiration of a twenty-one (21) day public comment period, and shall be subject to Board oversight and review' - see article X, section 3, item 4, http://www.icann.org/en/about/governance/bylaws#X). With best regards,
Marika Thanks Marika,
The current language of our Operating Procedures is: "Reports and motions should be submitted to the GNSO Council for inclusion on the agenda as soon as possible, but no later than 8 business days before the GNSO Council meeting."
To provide precision and uniformity, I propose we amend it to: ..."no later than 23:59 UTC on the day 8 calendar days before the GNSO Council meeting." --Wendy
