Dear All,
As discussed during our meeting, please find attached the latest version of the draft charter, both in redline and clean version. Please note that I've attempted to capture the DT's agreement on the composition of the CWG concerning members and observers in section III as well as changed ccWG to CWG (per my previous email).In the clean version, I've also highlighted those sections that were specifically called out during the call as requiring more discussion, in addition to other comments / edits.
Please also find the notes from today's meeting below.Notes, recording, and chat transcript from today's meeting are available on the wiki at:

Best regards,
Marika
Notes / Action Items 21/7:
- ICG timeline is still tentative and will need to be further discussed and considered by ICG - issues such as public comment and consultation has not been factored in
- Outreach / education needed on how naming relationship with IANA differs from other communities which may also be reflected in proposals that will eventually be submitted
- Not the role of the ICG to develop proposals or choose from competing proposals according to charter
- Draft timeline does not allow for resolution of possible issues or testing, incl. no transition window
Composition of ccWG
- Members (from chartering organizations)- consider keeping it relatively small to ensure being able to make progress (min. 2, max 3-5 from each chartering organization). Observers - consider leaving it open (can participate in conversations, but not responsible for getting the work done).
- SO/AC/SG/C should consider opening up their processes so that others interested could also join as members who are not necessarily formal members of SO/AC/SG/C
- Should this CWG redirect any requests from other communities to participate to their respective groups?
- Proposal to have chartering organizations have min. 2, max of 5 of representatives on the CWG. Open to observers from all communities. Make CWG operations as transparent and open as possible for all, both with regard to F2F as well as online meetings.
- Observers can provide input, but should decisions need to be made, only named members can provide input at that stage. - make sure to clarify this in the charter
Public consultations
- At least one, if not two public comment forums
Involvement of the GAC
- Reach out to the GAC and re-invite them (noting renewed committment to participate in community efforts following increase in GAC membership in ICG)
Development of workplan and timelines
- Consider how to provide feedback to ICG on timeline (end of year deadline may not be feasible)
- Consider having input ready following ICANN meeting in Marrakech as a possible alternative - what are other possible milestones in interim timeframe? Consider providing that feedback to ICG.
- Should work on development of charter be done in parallel with initial work of CWG or does charter need to be approved first? Might be difficult for CWG to commence without charter nailed down. Maybe some of the administrative elements could be commenced earlier, but the substantive work can only begin once the charter has been approved.
- Staff to develop draft timeline for public consultations by next week's meeting
Charter
(Edits in real time)
- The focus is on names but will not be limited exclusively to names.
