EXTENDED CALL FOR MEMBERS and ALTERNATES: For the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy
by ICANN At-Large Staff April 23, 2021

April 23, 2021

Dear All, On behalf of the members of the ALAC Appointee Selection Subcommittee (AASC), this is to inform you that the call for ALAC Member and Alternates for the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy has been extended through Thursday, 29 April at 23:59 UTC. The AASC met with Melissa Allgood who has been doing some training for the At-Large community on the GNSO Consensus Playbook. She provided us with an explanation of what the GNSO is expecting of members of other communities who intend to participate in their new PDPs. The GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy is being run under the Representative Model of the GNSO Consensus Playbook. The three tier structure includes 2 Members, 2 Alternates and several Observers as representatives from each of theconstituencies within ICANN. * MEMBERS are the only ones who can actually participate in the meeting, but more importantly they MUST convey the views and opinions of the constituency they represent. Therefore, not only will it require a commitment to attend the GNSO meetings, but also the regular CPWG calls to provide information about what is happening in the PDP, but also to ensure that our representatives all get the same message from the CPWG/At-Large views about whatever the current issue is under discussion by the PDP. * ALTERNATES replace MEMBERS on the PDP for whatever reason, illness, etc.. so that they also have to be up with the play about both sides of each issue which will be dealt with and then they move onto the next.. And there is no going back on old discussions. They could possibly contribute as leads in the discussions that are held within the CPWG, supported by the OBSERVERS, * OBSERVERS is the status for those who are interested in the PDP topic, but perhaps don't yet have the knowledge or confidence to participate actively in a PDP. A group of Observers listening into a meeting would be helpful in the CPWG discussions in support of the members and alternates. However, most importantly are the skills and knowledge that people bring to the table. These are mandatory skills for all Members. As noted in the earlier call for applications, they skills and knowledge necessary for the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy are outlined below. According to the GNSO Transfer Policy PDP Charter<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/draft-cha…>, WG members shall review the full text of the Guidance document below to understand the responsibilities and skills that they are expected to have in order to fully participate in the WG activities. Guidance: Working Group Member Skills Guide<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/pdp-3-3-w…> For the GNSO PDP to Review the Transfer Policy, Working Group Members and Alternates must possess: ● Knowledge of Transfer Policy issue, background and current work status (technical knowledge of inter-registrar transfers is strongly preferred); ● Commitment to participating in Working Group meetings on a regular and ongoing basis; ● Ability to create factual, relevant and easily understandable messages, and able to succinctly deliver them to the Working Group; ● Ability to deliver a point constructively and concisely; ● Familiarity with the following sections of the Working Group Guidelines: ○ Section 4.1 Session Planning – General Meeting Logistics ○ Section 4.2 Communication/Collaboration Tools ● Effective oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills (in simple, comprehensible English); ● Research skills with the ability to discern factual, factually relevant, and persuasive details and sources; ● Commitment to manage a diverse workload, while collaborating with a Working Group of individuals with different backgrounds and interests in driving objectives; ● In depth knowledge of Working Group discussions, actions taken at meetings, and deliverables; ● Understanding of the perspectives and interests of the members’ own stakeholder group or constituency; ● Project management skills in driving the completion of SG/C statements in a timely manner. If you are interested in applying either as an ALAC Member or as an Alternate, please send your Statement of Interest to Maureen Hilyard and At-Large no later than Thursday, 29 April at 23:59 UTC clearly stating the following: · To which you are applying position; · Explaining why you are interested in the position; and · Outlining how you meet the required skills noted above.

Suggestions on: [Gnso-epdp-team] Partial draft re SSAC position on natural/legal discussion
by sivasubramanian muthusamy April 23, 2021

April 23, 2021

Please see inline: ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Steve Crocker via Gnso-epdp-team <gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org> Date: Thu, Apr 15, 2021 at 11:48 AM Subject: [Gnso-epdp-team] Partial draft re SSAC position on natural/legal discussion To: <gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org> Folks, My work schedule has suffered one of life's inescapable interruptions. In this case, it's good: our granddaughter entered the world this past Saturday. My wife and I have been in San Francisco providing support. Everyone is well, but I'm behind on my participation in this working group. Attached is my partial draft of a composite treatment of the natural vs legal collection of issues. I started writing from front to back but haven't had time to finish. I added a section at the end with the conclusions and recommendations. I will fill in the missing pieces as quickly as I can. Despite the incompleteness, we did have an opportunity in the SSAC work party to review and agree on the recommendations. For ease of access, the recommendations are copied below. Thanks, Steve 1. *Inescapable Requirement: Definition of Roles * Each role must be defined in terms of the authority and responsibilities associated with the role. This definition must be explicitly available to both the people fulfilling the role and the people interacting with the people in those roles. Each person named in a role must be aware of being named and must agree to the obligations associated with the role. The definition must also include an explicit statement of how the information about the person in the role will be disseminated. Information about the registrant is provided by the Account Holder. The Account Holder is effectively an agent of the Registrant and is the only authoritative source of information about the status of the registrant. 2. *Recommendation: Unknown Persons * In addition to definite status of Natural Person or Legal Person, the status of Unknown should be included in the design of the system. # If what is implied by the proposed status as "Unknown person" is implied as an option for the Registrant to choose to be 'unknown', as in the case of a Journalist who considers it dangerous even to list his or her Registrant details, even as a 'natural' person, then this is certainly a remarkable proposal. This could also work as a sub-category in the Registration database as data that has some difficulty in being identified as of or belonging to a legal or natural person, in which case the 'unknown' person is a temporarily unknown person. 3. *Recommendation: Additional Protection * In addition to whether the registrant is a Natural, Legal or Unknown Person, the status should also include an additional attribute regarding whether the registrant requires special privacy protection. It is an open question as to whether additional privacy protection should be available to any registrant who wishes it or should require justification. At the very least, to facilitate visibility into potentially harmful behaviors, Registrars should avoid unnecessary protection of registration data. # This is very considerate and thoughtful. Would it be useful to interpret this proposal as a proposal for a sub-category of some sort which might make it possible even for 'legal' persons, otherwise required to disclose a little more information than 'natural' persons, to seek extraordinary exemptions due to some special needs, temporarily or long-term? If that be the case such special protection requests may have to be exceptional, as for instance, as in the case of 'witness protection' (not exactly of this order, but mentioned to suggest a high degree of special need) in some countries. The request may have to be exceptional, and the process of granting such a request, while being swift, may have to be a high level process # comments on the go, on the above two points. 4. *Recommendation: Downgrading * Registrants should have the option of “downgrading” the level of protection for some or all of their data elements. Registrars should have the option of implementing downgrading on a field by field basis or in groups of fields. ICANN should establish a date certain for registrars to implement registrant option to downgrade the sensitivity of their registrations. 5. *Comment: Recourse * If a person named in any role in a registration feels the data is incorrect or is being disseminated improperly, they have recourse via the Registrant. Failing that, they have recourse through ICANN’s compliance process. No additional processes are required. 6. *Recommendation: Org Field * The Org field should *not* be used to determine the registrant’s status. The Registrar should require Legal Persons to provide the Org data element. The Registrar should permit Natural or Unknown registrants to provide or not provide the Org data element. 7. *Recommendation: Transition * ICANN should establish a plan for transitioning Unknown registrations into known status. _______________________________________________ Gnso-epdp-team mailing list Gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gnso-epdp-team _______________________________________________ By submitting your personal data, you consent to the processing of your personal data for purposes of subscribing to this mailing list accordance with the ICANN Privacy Policy (https://www.icann.org/privacy/policy) and the website Terms of Service (https://www.icann.org/privacy/tos) You can visit the Mailman link above to change your membership status or configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.
