Manal:Thanks Marika .. noted .. Mark Carvell:If quick look is triggered at a meeting with the GNSO liaison at a GAC mtg and then run in parallel with public comment period of 21 days to allow consultation in capitals, think this could work. Amr Elsadr:Thanks Manal, could the triggering mechanism include input to the next stage of the PDP during the chartering of the PDP working group? Manal:@Mark I agree .. hope eveyone else do .. Manal:@Amr I think yes .. it sure could .. Amr Elsadr:That would be great. These early stages are very important, because GAC input here may inform the GNSO of implications that may be important to the GAC that we may have missed. Amr Elsadr:It'd be very helpful to have the GAC ensure that they are part of the PDP scope at the early stages. Amr Elsadr:Thanks. Bye. Ana Neves:Thank to you, Manal and to the Secretariat. Always great work! Manal:Great work indeed .. Manal:thanks everyone ..

Action items from today's meeting

Dear All, Please find below the action items and notes from today's meeting. You will find the documents discussed during today's meeting attached if you have any additional comments or questions, please feel free to share those ahead of the next week which is scheduled for Tuesday 23 September at 13.00 UTC. Best regards, Marika Update on GAC members survey: * Members encouraged to review the results of the survey (see https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-2SJW9J7L/) and provide additional feedback / suggestions on the mailing list * Clear from survey that GAC, as presumably others in the community, are overwhelmed by information available. How to make this easier digestible? Issue is not lack of information, but how to package it so that it is easy to review and assess. * How does GNSO prioritise or deal with multiple competing requests? Update on GNSO Liaison to the GAC * GNSO Council appointed Mason Cole as the GNSO liaison to the GAC at their last meeting - to commence in LA until 30 June 2015, following which the liaison role will be reviewed and assessed. * Proposal to invite Mason to attend the next CG meetings PDP WT Track * Consider how information is presented to GAC in LA * There may be other mechanisms that could be considered in addition / instead of a Quick Look Mechanism. * Also take into account the survey results as mechanisms are explored. * Explore role of liaison in this process or potential new mechanisms * Quick look mechanism would not prevent more detailed information or input if time / processes allow, but at a minimum it would serve as a triggering mechanism that would allow for starting a process to gather that input to be provided when requested by the PDP WG * Focus of public comment forum on Preliminary Issue Report is on whether all relevant information has been included to scope the issue as well as whether the GNSO Council should initiate a PDP Day-to-Day WT * Three remaining options to further explore now that GNSO Liaison to the GAC has been implemented * Encourage further conversations on these three options on the mailing list Administrative Issues * Aim to schedule open F2F CG meeting at the ICANN meetin in Los Angeles (tentative for Sunday from 18.30 - 19.30, followed by drinks) * Two remaining meetings between now and LA meeting (23 Sept and 7 Oct)

Resolutions passed by the GNSO Council Thursday, 4 September 2014

Sept. 8, 2014

FYI Dear Councillors, Ahead of the Council minutes, please find the resolutions passed by the GNSO Council at its meeting on Thursday, 4 September 2014. Consent agenda: 1. Council approved thanking ICANN Contractual Compliance for its presentation of their three-year plan and continued collaboration with the GNSO in future policy development efforts AND 2. Considering the issues identified in the Uniformity of Reporting Final Issue Report to have been addressed and to consider the issue closed. 3. The Council confirmed the Co-Chairs for the Working Group on Curative Rights Protections for IGO/INGOs (IGO-INGO-CRP) PDP working group, namely Philip Corwin and Petter Rindforth. Council passed the resolution to appoint a GNSO Liaison to the Governmental Advisory Committee Whereas: 1. As part of the discussions within ICANN between the GNSO and GAC, on how to facilitate early engagement of the GAC in GNSO policy development activities, the option of appointing a GNSO liaison to the GAC has been proposed as one of the mechanisms to explore. 2. As such, the GAC-GNSO Consultation Group (CG) on GAC Early Engagement in GNSO policy development activities proposed to implement this option as a one-year pilot program in FY15 (starting 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015). 3. This mechanism will be evaluated at the end of FY 15, by both the GNSO Council and the GAC, to determine whether or not to continue in either in the same form or with possible adjustments based on the feedback received. 4. Following a call for candidates (seehttp://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg16435.html) five applications were received all of which were evaluated by the GNSO Council Leadership based on the criteria outlined in the call for candidates. 5. Mason Cole was unanimously selected by the GNSO Council Leadership as the preferred candidate. Resolved: 1. The GNSO Council hereby appoints Mason Cole to the role of GNSO Liaison to the Governmental Advisory Committee until 30 June 2015. 2. The GNSO Council Leadership Team will co-ordinatewith Mason Cole as well as the GAC-GNSO Consultation Group on next steps and the successful implementation of this new role. Council adopted a Charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions Whereas, 1. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has requested that ICANN "convene a multistakeholder process to develop a plan to transition the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the IANA Functions and related root zone management. 2. On June 6 2014, ICANN proposed the creation of an IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) "responsible for preparing a transition proposal reflecting the differing needs of the various affected parties of the IANA functions." 3. It was determined that the transition proposal should be developed within the directly affected communities (i.e. the IETF for development of standards for Internet Protocol Parameters; the NRO, the ASO, and the RIRs for functions related the management and distribution of numbering resources; and the GNSO and ccNSO for functions related to the Domain Name System). These efforts would inform the work of the ICG, whose responsibility would be to fashion an overall integrated transition proposal from these autonomously developed components. 4. Following distribution of an invitation to participate, a drafting team (DT) was formed with participants from the ccNSO, GNSO, SSAC and ALAC to develop a charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions. 5. The DT delivered the proposed charter<http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/iana-stewardship-naming-function-charter-14…> for consideration to the ccNSO, GNSO, SSACC and ALAC Resolved, 1. The GNSO Council approves the Charter<http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/iana-stewardship-naming-function-charter-14…> and appoints Jonathan Robinson as the GNSO Council liaison and member to the CWG. 2. Each GNSO Stakeholder Group will identify one member for the CWG by 15 September taking into account the charter requirement that best efforts should be made to ensure that members: * Have sufficient expertise to participate in the applicable subject matter; * Commit to actively participate in the activities of the CWG on an ongoing and long-term basis; and * Where appropriate, solicit and communicate the views and concerns of individuals in the organization that appoints them. 3. The GNSO will collaborate with the other SOs and ACs to issue a call for observers to join the CWG, each in accordance with its own rules. 4. Until the CWG selects its co-chairs for the CWG, the GNSO Council recommends that the co-chairs of the Drafting Team shall serve as the interim co-chairs of the CWG. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
