Revised Draft of Guidelines/Templates for Article 4 Accountability and Review – Sections 4.2 & 4.3: Comments from David McAuley: -- Page 2 and 3: References to 4.2 and 4.3 -- highlight the fact that one is in annex D and one is in the main body of the Bylaws. -- Page 3, para 4, change to "request or support" -- Page 4, Add language/template for whether and when the GNSO wants to support an IRP (not covered by the Reconsideration Request form). ACTION ITEM: Staff will 1) develop a new draft with David McAuley and 2) circulate to the DT for review. 3. Review and Discuss Approach for Guidelines for 18.12 Special IANA Naming Function Reviews (IFRs): a. GNSO Input Process: DT members should review the GIP and in the context of the initiation of a Special IFR on the IANA function. See questions below. The GIP is at: https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-3-input-process-manual-18jun18-en.pd... -- Is it useful, is anything missing -- a gap analysis. Should help to identify any GNSO-specific items. If we do need something else suggest what that could be. Discussion: -- Note that changes to GNSO Operating Procedures need to go out for public comment and be approved by the Council. -- Could consider referencing the GIP or using another process. -- GIP seems to be fairly broad with flexibility. -- Link back to a Special IFR -- doesn't seem to quite fit. Doesn't arise to the level of seriousness of a Special IFR. -- Could use the form of the GIP but adjust it to a Special IFR. -- Impossible to know in advance what is necessary. -- Not sure we need to add points to the GIP -- could it be sufficient; rather than redrafting the GIP produce guidance for using the GIP for a Special IFR. ACTION ITEM: Put GIP language in a Google doc to customize for Special IFRs as a guidance document. Highlight what we think is necessary for the Special IFR. Can note time requirements for specific steps. b. Coordination with the ccNSO Guidelines Review Committee: DT members should think about what needs to be documented such as timing, consultation, and how to make a final joint decision. Discussion: -- Might want a formal process based on the seriousness of the subject matter. -- Having some sort of a record that the GNSO and ccNSO have discussed whether or not to bring a Special IFR. Such as a letter. 4. Next Meeting: -- The next meeting is in 3 weeks on 01 May. -- The Sub Team will take up the question of coordination with ccNSO.
