REMINDER (Re: [council] Call for Volunteers for GNSO Drafting Team)
Hello and thanks to Amr for his question and reminder that the closing date for volunteers to send in their names was set to be Friday 22 July. As such, Councilors for those Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies that have not yet formally submitted names of volunteers are kindly requested to do so at their earliest convenience. FYI, as of today (21 July), staff has only received the names of five volunteers from the NCSG. Please note also that, in accordance with the resolution that established this Drafting Team, volunteers should be those who “can demonstrate reasonable knowledge of or experience with the process of revising the ICANN Bylaws or GNSO Operating Procedures.” In addition, the resolution provides that “the Drafting Team shall reflect the current composition of the GNSO and as such, the GNSO Council may review the number of volunteers identified by the GNSO Council members.” Thanks and cheers Mary Mary Wong Senior Policy Director Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Email: mary.wong@icann.org Telephone: +1-603-5744889 From: <owner-council@gnso.icann.org> on behalf of Amr Elsadr <aelsadr@egyptig.org> Date: Thursday, July 21, 2016 at 19:50 To: "James M.

I was wondering who is meant to determine whether these qualifications are met in volunteers. Is the GNSO Council meant to do this, or are the SGs/Cs supposed to do this prior to submitting names? I didn’t think the second scenario was the case, as the application process seems to be simply notifying a councillor of the desire to join the group, who would be expected, in turn, to communicated this to the GNSO secretariat. As James mentioned on the call, the deadline for applications to join this group is tomorrow. Thanks.

Kind regards, Nathalie -- Call for Volunteers: GNSO Drafting Team to Further Develop Recommendations to Implement the GNSO’s New Roles and Obligations Under the Revised ICANN Bylaws In Brief Per the motion adopted on 30 June 2016, the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks volunteers for a Drafting Team to further develop recommendations to implement the GNSO’s new roles and obligations under the post-transition ICANN Bylaws. What This Team Will Do The Drafting Team will work with ICANN staff to fully identify all the new or additional rights and responsibilities that the GNSO has under the post-transition Bylaws, including but not limited to participation of the GNSO within the Empowered Community, and to develop new or modified structures and procedures (as necessary) to fully implement these new or additional rights and responsibilities. The Drafting Team shall provide the GNSO Council with an implementation plan, which will have the consensus of the Drafting Team, including any recommendations for needed further changes to ICANN Bylaws and/or GNSO Operating Procedures to enable effective GNSO participation in ICANN activities under the revised ICANN Bylaws, not later than 30 September 2016. As part of the process of its consideration of the implementation plan, intended to be approved by a GNSO supermajority vote, the Council may further request that the Drafting Team work with ICANN staff to develop new, or propose modifications to existing, procedures and structures to implement the revised Bylaws for the GNSO. Any such new, or proposed modifications to existing procedures and structures to implement the revised Bylaws for the GNSO are also intended to be approved by a GNSO supermajority vote. How to Join Volunteers for the Drafting Team will be identified by GNSO Council members. Volunteers should express interests and can demonstrate reasonable knowledge of or experience with the process of revising the ICANN Bylaws or GNSO Operating Procedures. The Drafting Team shall reflect the current composition of the GNSO and as such, the GNSO Council may review the number of volunteers identified by the GNSO Council members. GNSO Councilors are requested to identify volunteers by email to gnso-sec@icann.org<mailto:gnso-sec@icann.org> by 22 July 2016. Next steps As noted above, the GNSO Council directed that this call for volunteers be circulated to the GNSO Council and that the volunteers should be identified by GNSO Council members. It is anticipated that the Drafting Team will convene online for the first time in early August 2016. Following that, regular online meetings will be scheduled in accordance with the Drafting Team’s work plan, which it is expected to develop as one of its first tasks. Further information and Preparation For those interested in volunteering for this effort, you are encouraged to review the table at: http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/revised-bylaws-notes-comments-procedures-14j.... Background On 27 May 2016 the ICANN Board adopted a set of new ICANN Bylaws, as revised on 26 May 2016, that aim to reflect changes needed to implement the IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal and such adoption is contingent on the proposed transition away of remaining United States Government oversight of ICANN. The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council is aware that changes that may need to be made to the GNSO’s current Operating Procedures and related mechanisms and to the ICANN Bylaws in order to give effect to new roles and obligations of the GNSO under the new Bylaws, such as those in this table (http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/revised-bylaws-notes-comments-procedures-14j...), including but not limited to the GNSO’s participation in the Empowered Community.
