Updated PP Policy Section 1, update from 1/10 IRT call
by Amy Bivins Jan. 12, 2017

Jan. 12, 2017

Hello, All, Thanks so much for your active participation on our IRT call today-I think we can all agree that we made substantial progress! I am attaching an updated draft of Section 1 of the policy, incorporating edits after our call today and some new comments that were received after the Friday deadline. If you have any additional comments on this, please send them to the list this week while the discussion is still fresh on everyone's minds. I cleaned up this document by deleting the comments and making a couple of edits that I believe were addressed on the call (but if you disagree with any changes that were made please let me know). For those who were not on the call, please review the call materials and listen to the recording this week. We had a very robust discussion. There was general support on the call to begin meeting weekly, so we will update our meeting schedule to start that next week. If anyone who was not on the call wishes to weigh in on this, please reply to the list. As you will hear on the recording, there was general agreement on the call to work to expedite our pace, to the extent that we can without sacrificing the quality of our output. So the first step on that is to start meeting weekly. I will distribute materials for next week's call no later than Monday, and the materials from today's call should be up on the wiki shortly. If you have questions or comments please don't hesitate to contact me directly or reply to the list (preferred, so that everyone can see). Also, a reminder that any feedback on the LEA framework principles document (distributed to the LEA issues subteam and available on the wiki) should be sent to the list no later than Friday, 13 January. And I will be following up with the registrars who spoke up on the call about starting subteam work related to developing a proposed process that we will fit in to Section 1 C (when a registrar/reseller becomes aware of registrations involving an unaccredited privacy or proxy service).

[Response Requested by 6 January] Draft Section I PP Policy, Illustrative 12-month timeline
by Amy Bivins Jan. 6, 2017

Jan. 6, 2017

Hello, All, I have a few developments to share with you. Items 3 and 4 require action from you, so please review this message carefully. First, ICANN will be formally announcing to accredited registrars today that the expiration date of the 2013 RAA Specification on Privacy and Proxy Registrations is extended to 1 January 2018. Second, the new LEA subgroup page is up the wiki, https://community.icann.org/display/IRT/Subgroup%3A+Law+Enforcement+Authorit y+Issues. The subgroup likely won't meet until shortly before ICANN58, but I am glad that so many of you have signed up and that we have the subgroup ready when there is a proposal ready to discuss. I'll continue to share all information I have about this effort with you (this effort should be officially kicked off with the PSWG in early January). Third, a first draft of Section 1 of the Privacy and Proxy Service Provider Accreditation Provider is attached and ready for your review. We will be discussing this on our 10 January call. Please provide your initial feedback to the list no later than your EOD 6 January, so that we can plan for how to allocate time for this topic on the next call. Fourth, pursuant to a request on the 13 December 2016 call, ICANN has prepared an illustrative timeline showing our best estimate for how we could attempt to compress the existing project plan into a one-year timeline to coincide with the new 1 January 2018 expiration date of the interim 2013 RAA Specification. Please note: * This is ICANN's best estimate only. If the IRT wants to pursue this compressed timeline, this plan could shift and change along the way due to a variety of factors and dependencies, many beyond ICANN's (and the IRT's) control (for example, an additional deliverable on Transfer Policy requirements might need to be added to the project plan). * The distribution of this illustrative timeline is not an ICANN endorsement of this timeline. There could be significant impacts to the initial application process and account management infrastructure, at a minimum, to rolling out this program at this pace-impacts that might be seen as detrimental by some within the community. For example, it is unlikely that ICANN will have a portal/system in place to accept applications and for accredited services to manage their accounts by 1 January 2018, even if the final implementation can be announced as soon as October 2017. * Dates noted in the timeline should not be interpreted as a commitment by ICANN, as meeting each milestone will depend on a multitude of factors. * Moving along at this pace would require weekly meetings, at a minimum. IRT discussion on topics that must be decided upon each week would either (a) need to be time-limited, by some process (suggested time allotments in the illustrative example are for discussion purposes only), or (b) the IRT would likely need to have longer or multiple meetings during at least some weeks to stay on schedule and resolve the relevant topic(s). * Meeting this illustrative timeline would significantly impact the burdens placed on staff and IRT volunteers. This could have a significant impact on the costs required to implement this program. * We want to stress the importance of ensuring that the final program implementation is sound and delivers what the PDP WG intended. This cannot be sacrificed for speed's sake (though staff will do everything we can to be efficient managers of this process). * ICANN will require at least 6+ months to become operationally ready to process applications for accreditation after all program requirements are finalized. With those cautions firmly in mind, ICANN commits to use all reasonable efforts to adhere closely to this proposed timeline if the IRT wants to pursue this path. Please provide your feedback on this timeline no later than 6 January 2017. If the IRT would like to explore some compromise between the originally proposed timeline and this 12-month timeline, ICANN is also open to that (this exercise identified some areas where this timeline might be compressed with lesser impacts on overall burdens than the 12-month timeline attached). Fifth, I have consulted internally regarding the appropriate day(s) for scheduling face-to-face meetings before ICANN58 (which was the most popular option in the Doodle poll, by one vote). The schedule is not set yet, so I apologize that the poll was premature. I will let you know as soon as I know what the approved date(s) for a day-long meeting prior to ICANN58 would be. Finally, this is a reminder that ICANN offices are closed 24 December until 2 January. I hope that you all have a happy and healthy holiday season (for those who celebrate) and I look forward to working with you all in the new year. Best, Amy Amy E.

Board approves GAC scorecard, including provision on Privacy/Proxy IRT
by Amy Bivins Dec. 20, 2016

Dec. 20, 2016

Hi All, On Tuesday, the Board approved the GAC scorecard, "GAC Advice <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolutions-helsinki56-gac-advi ce-scorecard-13dec16-en.pdf> -Helsinki Communique Actions and Updates," which includes information relevant to the Privacy and Proxy Service Provider Accreditation Program IRT (see p. 3-4). The Board resolution "encourages the Implementation Review Team to continue to work with the Public Safety Working Group to address the concerns expressed by the GAC regarding accreditation of privacy/proxy service providers." To that end, staff is working to set up a meeting with interested members of the PSWG in early January to discuss (a) the process for developing a proposed law enforcement disclosure framework for discussion with the IRT, (b) the scope and limits of the Final Policy Recommendations with respect to this framework and (c) the time-sensitive nature of this process. If you want participate in a subgroup on this topic, please let me know. It may be a couple of months before the subgroup meets (to give the PSWG time to develop a strawman proposal to be vetted through the subgroup before presentation to the full IRT). All of the work on this topic and details of the process will be posted on the public wiki. Also, as an update-we are working on an illustrative timeline that will show how we might compress this project timeline to match the new RAA interim specification expiration date (1 January 2018). This is being reviewed internally and I expect to be able to share it with you next week. Also, I'm doing everything I can to have draft Policy documents for our 10 January meeting ready and approved for distribution to you by the end of next week. Best, Amy Amy E.

materials, Doodle poll referenced on Privacy/Proxy IRT call today
by Amy Bivins Dec. 14, 2016

Dec. 14, 2016

Hi, All, Thanks so much for your participation on the Privacy and Proxy Service Provider Accreditation Program IRT call earlier today. If you were unable to attend, materials and call information will be posted on the wiki shortly. As mentioned on the call today, we are considering the possibility of having an IRT face-to-face meeting this Spring, either before the ICANN58 meeting in Copenhagen or at the GDD Summit (in Madrid, in May). To that end, please participate in this Doodle poll no later than Friday, 16 December, http://doodle.com/poll/4v48dy362nef2n83 . As promised on the call today, I am attaching a more detailed project plan-outlining proposed topics for each scheduled IRT meeting. Please submit your feedback on this no later than 23 December. Your feedback on areas where we might be able to shorten this timeline would be especially helpful. As discussed this morning, we are working on an illustrative timeline of how we might reduce this project to a one-year time frame. We have a lot to cover, but we will develop the best proposal we can so that you can see how we might be able to compress this timeframe. Lastly, I want to re-emphasize that we (as staff who are working on this implementation project) are always open to hearing your suggestions, comments and concerns surrounding this project. If you, as an individual IRT member, or any of your larger constituencies, would like to schedule a meeting to discuss this project or specific topics therein, please don't hesitate to ask-we welcome all the input we can receive on this in addition to your participation in the IRT meetings.

Re: [Gdd-gnso-ppsai-impl] Reminder: Please Submit Feedback on Draft PP Policy Outline
by Darcy Southwell Dec. 12, 2016

Dec. 12, 2016

Thanks, Amy. This looks like a good start. I am a bit confused by the first sentence in §II. “As a condition of obtaining and maintaining ICANN accreditation, privacy and proxy service providers must enter and maintain in effect accreditation agreements with ICANN.” Does the first mention of “accreditation” in that sentence refer to something other than privacy/proxy accreditation? It’s a bit confusing the way it reads.

Kind regards, Michelle ------------------------------- Adobe Connect chat transcript for Tuesday, 29 November 2016 Michelle DeSmyter:Dear All, Welcome to the Privacy and Proxy Services Accreditation Program IRT Meeting on Tuesday, 29 November 2016 at 14:00 UTC. Michelle DeSmyter:Agenda page: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_… Chris Pelling:Good afternoon all, could we make the chat window slightly taller please ? Chris Pelling:Many thanks, I have 2 lines now :) Tom Kinstler:Good Day to all Graeme Bunton:Morning all. Theo Geurts:hiyas Chris Pelling:Thius time is perfect for me Chris Pelling:I dont see a check mark - sorry Ashley Heineman:I support the time. I'm clearly an idiot.. as I don't see a green check mark. Chris Pelling:yes please :) Sara Bockey:I'm fine with pushing it forward an hour, but this time works for me as well Ashley Heineman:learn something new every day. Chris Pelling:aha found it thanks :) steve metalitz:I am also fine either way and this slot is awfully early for PST Tom Kinstler:Please can you send an email detailing the type of candidate you are looking for in order for us to forward to the right people. Graeme Bunton:My recollection is that the PDP struggled to identify any as well Tom Kinstler:Understood, thank you. Tom Kinstler:YES PLEASE! Greg DiBiase:yes please Carlton Samuels:Morning all Carlton Samuels:My apologies for the late join; connection issues Michele Neylon:Sorry - Can't speak not dialled in - am currently on hold with my bank Mary Wong:We also hope to get specific feedback from the PSWG and the GAC on a potential scope of Section IV Mary Wong:@Tom, wouldn't that come under Section III? Chris Pelling:Within UDRP, that already existts Mary Wong:I believe the existing IP Disclosure Framework allows for trademark holders to make requests, including if the domain is subject to a UDRP proceeding. Nick Shorey:Has the IRT leadership received any further indication from the Board on when further guidance re GAC advice is likely to be received? Nick Shorey:cool - i love short answers! Thanks! Mary Wong:@Nick, the Board is expected to respond to GAC advice from Helsinki and Hyderabad shortly - which includes GAC advice on privacy/proxy issues. Nick Shorey:@Mary thanks for this. most helpful Mary Wong:You're most welcome! Carlton Samuels:Will Sec VI also contains specific data items to be recorded and reported for Compliance purposes? Carlton Samuels:Thanks for the response. Carlton Samuels:Good suggestion Steve. Carlton Samuels:Question, how would the Transfer Policy of Dec 1 impact this? Mary Wong:@Carlton, none of this would change the 1 Dec effective date - however, to the extent that the Board subsequently agrees to the GNSO request to put the privacy/proxy aspect to our IRT, I believe that Compliance will allow for that flexibility. Alex Deacon:Maybe Graeme can describe what other alternatives were discussed? Vicky Sheckler:i'd be interested in understanding hte alternatives for where the issue can be addressed so as not to slow down the work of the work in this group Carlton Samuels:@Mary: Thanks. Look at the comments from this article concerning whois handling. Is that a legit issue? Carlton Samuels:https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__domainnamewire.… Graeme Bunton:Alex - I don't want to eat this call up on that issue, but if there is time at the end? Graeme Bunton:or maybe the RrSG could host a chat with IPC on this? Luc Seufer:Do we have LEA reps on this WG? (and not just US ones) Graeme Bunton:Nick Shorey is from UK LEA Alex Deacon:Thanks Graeme - just curious that other alternatives were discussed. I don't object per se but want to make sure it doesn't delay existing work.... Luc Seufer:it would be good to have some from Asia... where the language can be a barrier for PPSAI providers to handle requests Mary Wong:If it helps, any request from the Board/GNSO to handle the privacy/proxy aspects of IRTP within our IRT will be strictly bounded as such - any new or additional policy issues that may arise in the course of doing so will not be for the IRT to solve; ICANN's existing Consensus Policy Implementation Framework allows for how that will be handled e.g. referral back to the GNSO for policy work. Carlton Samuels:Thanks all. Bye Sara Bockey:thanks all Philip Corwin:bye all Tom Kinstler:THanks all Chris Pelling:Many thanks :) Alex Deacon:Thanks! Nick Shorey:Thanks! Luc Seufer:bye
