Dear all, We are confirming the agenda for tomorrow¹s call with no change. Here below is a copy of what was sent on Monday: CWG-Stewardship Agenda: 1. Opening Remarks 2. Implementation Update 3. IANA IPR 4. CCWG-Accountability 5. ICANN Bylaws relating to CWG-Stewardship 6. AOB 7. Closing Remarks Update on CCWG-Accountability The CCWG-Accountability call on Tuesday went well for the CWG-Stewardship requirements. I¹ve provided some notes on the outcome below: * Agreement to move forward with IANA budget text (edited by Chuck and Jordan ‹ attached). * Agreement to move forward with a combination of solutions to address the IRP scope issue with PTI: include general provision regarding ICANN¹s obligation to cause the PTI to fulfill its obligations (the failure to do so would give rise to a standard IRP) and text to address SLA failures, etc. with an operational (rather than constitutional) standard of review. I will forward the documents to the CWG-Stewardship as soon as they are ready. The tracker is updated and attached to this email as well. A note on process Please note that the budget and the IRP documents are still undergoing revisions, so we will need to turn back to them later this week for the final text. The process is the CCWG-Accountability includes agreement, circulation of revised text to the group, and circulation of revised text to the lawyers. Once the lawyers have reviewed the text, the CCWG receives another version for 48h comment. If there are no comments, then this version is considered final. If there are comments on the lawyers¹ review, then the document goes through another round of edits between CCWG and lawyers. To date, no document has received comments after the lawyers¹ review.

Following the release of the staff report <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/report-comments-draft-ccwg-acco untability-proposal-08jan16-en.pdf> and the summary of public comments <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/summary-comments-draft-ccwg-acc ountability-proposal-08jan16-en.xlsx> , both of which were published on 8 January, the group wasted no time in setting up a rigorous schedule of conference calls for the rest of the month. The schedule was designed to enable inclusive and informed debates about the input received during the 21-day public comment period and the feedback provided by the six Chartering Organizations of CCWG-Accountability. The dedication of our members and participants, along with the increased involvement by members of the ICANN Board, has allowed us to make significant progress over the past four weeks. The collaborative environment has brought us even closer to our goal of a consensus proposal that will meet the requirements of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and fulfill the dependencies of the CWG-Stewardship in the ICG Final Proposal. Here is the current status of each CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 1 Recommendations: Recommendation #1: Establishing an Empowered Community for Enforcing Community PowersFinalized. Recommendation #2: Empowering the Community Through Consensus: Engagement, Escalation, EnforcementFinal comments by CCWG-Accountability. Expect final by February 5th. Recommendation #3: Redefining ICANN¹s Bylaws as ŒStandard Bylaws¹ and ŒFundamental BylawsFinalized. Recommendation #4: Ensuring Community Engagement in ICANN Decision-making: Seven New Community PowersEdits to reflect input on PTI budget (CWG-Stewardship) and indemnification language for removal of Directors by the Empowered Community. Recommendation #5: Changing Aspects ofICANN¹s Mission, Commitments and Core ValuesStill under discussion by the CCWG-Accountability. Recommendation #6: Reaffirming ICANN¹s Commitment to Respect Internationally Recognized Human Rights as it Carries Out its MissionFinal comments by CCWG-Accountability. Expect final by February 5th. Recommendation #7: Strengthening ICANN¹s Independent Review ProcessEdits to reflect input on applicability to PTI. Recommendation #8: Improving ICANN¹s Request for Reconsideration ProcessFinal comments by CCWG-Accountability. Expect final by February 5th. Recommendation #9: Incorporating the Affirmation of Commitments in ICANN¹s BylawsStill under discussion by the CCWG-Accountability. Recommendation #10: Incorporating the Affirmation of Commitments in ICANN¹s BylawsFinal draft to be reviewed by lawyers before final comments by CCWG-Accountability. Expect final by February 5th. Recommendation #11: Board Obligations with regards to Governmental Advisory CommitteeAdvice (Stress Test 18)Still under discussion by the CCWG-Accountability. Recommendation #12: Committing to Further Accountability Work in Work Stream 2Finalized. For the latest versions of all of the recommendations above, visit the CCWG-Accountability wiki <https://community.icann.org/x/8JVlAw> . After consensus has been reached on our few outstanding issues, the CCWG-Accountability will develop a ³supplemental² report of the Work Stream 1 Recommendations, including a summary of changes from the Third Draft Report. The supplemental report is currently being developed, and will go through an open and transparent process <http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/attachments/20 160120/0e76810a/Timelineandnextsteps-0001.pdf> of 1) CCWG-Accountability consultation, 2) support staff editing/proofing, 3) co-Chair and Rapporteur finalization, 4) legal review and 5) final publication. Our hope is that the majority of changes from the Third Draft Report will relate to specificities of implementation rather than content, and as such, an additional public comment period will not be necessary before approval by the Chartering Organizations. Our goal is to distribute the supplemental report to our Chartering Organizations in time for consideration and approval on all Work Stream 1 Recommendations at ICANN55 in Marrakech.Keeping in mind the working methods for the various Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, we ask that this be into account as the Chartering Organizations plan their discussions and schedules leading into and during ICANN55. With that said, we encourage any Chartering Organizations that can deliberate and/or approve the Work Stream 1 Recommendations prior to Marrakech to do so. We are grateful for the increased involvement of the ICANN Board as our work has progressed since the Third Draft Report. It has been helpful to understand Board comments in real-time, including ways to ensure any global public interest concerns are debated and considered as the recommendations are being revised. We hope to continue this open dialogue as the supplemental report is finalized, and ask the ICANN Board to be mindful of the timeline as they plan their review period of the Work Stream 1 Recommendations and submission to NTIA. CCWG-Accountability co-Chairs Mathieu Weill, Thomas Rickert, León Sanchez From: <cwg-stewardship-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of Grace Abuhamad <grace.abuhamad@icann.org> Date: Monday, February 1, 2016 at 1:11 PM To: "cwg-stewardship@icann.org" <cwg-stewardship@icann.org> Subject: [CWG-Stewardship] Two agendas -- your attention please! Ladies and gentlemen of the CWG-Stewardship, On this fine Monday, I have the wonderful opportunity of sending you two agendas: one for the CCWG-Accountability call on Tuesday at 06:00 UTC and one indicative agenda for our CWG-Stewardship call on Thursday at 16:00 UTC. Why you ask? On their Tuesday call, the CCWG-Accountability will be conducting its final readings on three recommendations that relate to the CWG-Stewardship dependencies. There may be some of you interested in these final readings, so we have provided the agenda below. After the CCWG-Accountability call, I will circulate an updated tracker (and any available documents) to the CWG-Stewardship list for the group to review. The CWG-Stewardship Chairs have discussed an indicative agenda for the Thursday call (also below), but reserve the right to, if needed, update the agenda or provide a more detailed agenda following the Tuesday CCWG-Accountability call. Documents for the CCWG-Accountability work can be found here: https://community.icann.org/display/acctcrosscomm/Final+Report. At this time, there are no new documents for Recommendations 4 and 7 related to the IANA Budget and the IRP. If these are circulated before the CCWG-Accountability call, I will send them to this list. Otherwise, I will forward them as soon as they are posted. CCWG-Accountability Agenda **Please note that it is possible that the order of the agenda items will change. If that is the case, I will circulate an updated agenda to this list. **
