Opening Remarks * Primary objectives of the call are 1) update on implementation from ICANN staff, 2) confirming plan for IPR work, 3) co-ordination with CCWG-Accountability, 4) work on the Bylaws. * Call may not take 2 hours 2. Implementation Update * See slides provided by staff * May need to consider role of staff in the implementation of IANA IPR - could be considered under item 3 * What is the status of the collection of statistics to measure SLEs? Intended to be provided by the middle December - did not meet that deadline. Now foreseen for end of January (on track). Preliminary report from contractor is being reviewed by staff as it requests certain assumptions to be validated. Action item: CWG-Stewardship to consider the role of ICANN staff in the implementation of IANA IPR issues 3. IANA IPR * Discussed in December as well as previous meeting. Functional neutrality (owner must operate in such a way that control is not steered by one of the operational communities over the exclusion of others) deemed acceptable based on those discussions, not necessary to create a whole new entity, logical option is to use the IETF Trust provided no substantial issues emerge in the future. * Confirm that there are no objections to this approach. No objections received so the CWG-Stewardship will proceed on this basis. * Discuss how the different operational communities can collaborate on the implementation of this solution. Utilize the group that has been operating to co-ordinate on this topic consisting of representatives of the different operational communities, plus Greg and Chairs of CWG-Stewardship. Objective is to flesh out the principle and example terms under which the different communities would have their relationships with the IETF Trust in relation to IANA IPR. Group has agreed to make all of its future email conversations public. Notes of previous meetings have been circulated. Target is to reach agreement on high level principles in advance of submission of the ICG proposal to the NTIA. 4. CCWG-Accountability * Communicated to CCWG-Accountability that some issues that needed to be worked further including budget and appeal mechanisms. * CCWG-Accountability is working hard on these issues with staff tracking the implementation and review of CWG-Stewardship items. Intensive work plan from CCWG-Accountability has resulted in request to CWG-Stewardship Chairs to review progress. CWG-Stewardship have instead suggested to share the documents with the CWG-Stewardship list to allow for input by the whole group, noting that turnaround time is short. * Budget item has already had its second reading - 3 responses received from the group which all have been sent to the CCWG-Accountability. Chairs suggest that Chuck as Chair of DT-O connects with the CCWG-Accountability leads on this topic (Jordan Carter and Jonathan Zuck) who are now tasked with writing the revised language in the proposal. Chuck agreed to take on this task. * Staff is working on a document that is tracking the CWG-Stewardship requirements which was presented during the meeting. Consider adding a column on the end to be able to note concerns or suggestions. * Becky Burr has reached out to some of the RySG participants on the IRP question. Community needs to have the ability through the community mechanisms to use the IRP if the PTI does not deliver on its obligations. Proposed bylaw changes currently do not refer to PTI (that ICANN is required to enforce contract with PTI). Could consider suggesting making the language more specific. Critical to be clear on what requirements are, but need to be careful to not open this up to redesign, need to be consistent with original recommendations and escalation mechanisms provided - only if those do not work, independent review needs to be available. Action item: Staff to distribute CG tracking of CCWG work to the mailing list. CWG-Stewardship to review and provide input. Action item: CWG-Stewardship to review current wording in relation to IRP for suitability and communicate feedback to the CCWG-Accountability as soon as possible. Chairs to circulate current wording to the list. Action item: Take input on list as to the requirements for the IPR consistent with prior work and recommendations to the CCWG-Accountability. 5. ICANN Bylaws relating to CWG-Stewardship * Design team leads contributed to the answers provided to Sidley where possible. Staff identified questions that were still left open and requiring CWG-Stewardship review. First reading of the document during this meeting, with second reading foreseen for the next meeting. * Risk to embody stuff in bylaws that should be dealt with elsewhere such as statement of work and contract between ICANN and PTI. * Answers to questions provide comprehensive view of the intended outcome - Sidley will review this and is expected to developed a slimmed down version of the Bylaws based on the input provided. Action item: Staff to circulate overview of questions and draft responses on the draft Bylaws to the CWG-Stewardship. Action item: CWG-Stewardship to review document and provide input on list. Action item: CWG-Stewardship to ensure that bylaws derived from the work of the CWG-Stewardship are appropriately sized and fit for purpose. 6. AOB * Next meeting scheduled for Thursday 4 February at 16.00 UTC. * Update on status of replacement of ccNSO member? To be communicated shortly. 7. Closing Remarks
