What is this about?


During the CPWG Call on 8 Oct 2025, we introduced the GNSO Board Readiness - Final Report of 11 Sep 2025 (“Report”) and began discussing the six recommendations contained therein (see: Presentation slide deck)

As we did not have a lot of time to discuss these recommendations at that CPWG call, we are now seeking At-Large input on the recommendations, for further consideration during the At-Large Consolidation Policy Working Group (CPWG) session at ICANN84 on 26 October 2025 at 15:00 UTC.

The Report is the product of the GNSO Council’s Small Team on Board Readiness, which captures ongoing discussions regarding “Board readiness,” its shorthand for operation of a [GNSO] Policy Development Process (PDP) that improves the chances of timely ICANN Board adoption of PDP recommendations.

Why is this important?


The GNSO’s approach to Board readiness is very likely to lead to changes to how GNSO PDPs are conducted, which in turn, impacts how the At-Large community may participate in policy development in areas under the GNSO’s remit (such as gTLDs, DNS Abuse mitigation, registration data accuracy, just to name a few) and how effective such participation could be. 

What input are we seeking?


We recommend that you review the Report and/or the Presentation slide deck to provide input on the six recommendations that will be considered at length by the GNSO Council at ICANN84. Please provide your input by way of comments in this Googledoc by Wednesday 22 October 2025, 23:59 UTC.

Thank you!
 
Kind regards,
Alan Greenberg, Avri Doria, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, and Justine Chew

On the agenda of the CPWG Call on 8 Oct 2025 at 22:00 UTC is an item regarding the GNSO Board Readiness project.

Since we don't have a lot of time set aside for it, I am circulating the links to the following, in the hope that you will have read them and will be prepared to discuss the 6 recommendations being proposed to GNSO Council:
