An email was also appropriate * Discussed the sheet <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18PdZnH3OQ65NT9g0lGE6Y2toFaCrtxyf/ed…> and noted that many have not updated this as they are awaiting feedback from their respective groups * Query about asking clarifying questions of the authors of the NetBeacon report. A: it would be good to have actual questions to send over to authors so please come up with direct questions * Compliance has been sent the questions and will respond prior to our next meeting * Assess impact of ICANN contract amendments yellow check mark as we need to analyze the response from compliance 3. Discussion Timeline (20min) * July Council meeting is too soon, so August seems more likely * Bulk of next call will be input from compliance as well as SG/Cs * If the small team wants to propose an issue report for August there will also be a public comment. The role of the issue report is to identify gaps and not provide solutions. * If there are additional questions for compliance, please have that is the group input * Deadline for input on this part, there will be additional opportunities to weigh in further including public comment 4. Preliminary Discussion on potential recommendations to Council (15min) * Balancing this timeline we still need to be thorough to see if there are additional questions for compliance John R.

ICANN 83 DNS Abuse discussion sessions and a reminder about our gap matrix homework
by jen＠dot.asia June 9, 2025

June 9, 2025

Dear DNS Abuse Small Team, Hope you have all arrived safely in Prague (or if you are joining us online, hope the hours are kind to you). A reminder to take advantage of the Prague meeting to discuss the homework with your SG/Cs: Gap matrix: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18PdZnH3OQ65NT9g0lGE6Y2toFaCrtxyf/edi t?gid=1836517289#gid=1836517289 As mentioned on our last call, the ST will not have any meeting time during the Prague meeting (other than our already scheduled Council meeting), but there are sessions on the schedule that will discuss DNS abuse that we as the ST should keep our eyes and ears open and follow to the best that our schedules allow. Please note this list is taken from the slide deck from our June 5 call - if we have missed any session please do add to this list. Monday 9 June 13:45 South Hall 2 (GNSO) * CPH DNS Abuse Community Update - https://icann83.sched.com/event/246R0/gnso-cph-dns-abuse-community-update Tuesday 10 June 09:00 Forum Hall (GAC) * GAC Discussion on DNS Abuse - https://icann83.sched.com/event/246Wf/gac-discussion-on-dns-abuse-mitigation 09:00 South Hall C (At Large) * Joint Session ALAC and SSAC - https://icann83.sched.com/event/246Xi/joint-session-alac-and-ssac 10:45 Forum Hall (GAC) * GAC Joint Sessions with GNSO and ALAC - https://icann83.sched.com/event/246Wi/gac-joint-meetings-with-the-gnso-and-a lac Wednesday 11 June 10:45 South Hall 2 (GNSO) * RRSG: DNS Abuse Example Review and Panel Discussion https://icann83.sched.com/event/246XQ/gnso-rrsg-dns-abuse-example-review-and -panel-discussion 13:45 South Hall 3 A/B (ccNSO) * ccNSO: DASC Online Scams and Financial Crime https://icann83.sched.com/event/246YD/ccnso-dasc-online-scams-and-financial- crime Thursday 12 June 10:45 South Hall 3 C (At Large) At-large Plenary Session 2- Progressing DNS Abuse Mitigation Efforts Within ICANN https://icann83.sched.com/event/246Xv/at-large-plenary-2-progressing-dns-abu se-mitigation-efforts-within-icann Thanks all! Best, Jen From: jen(a)dot.asia <jen(a)dot.asia> Sent: Wednesday, June 4, 2025 4:21 AM To: 'gnso-dnsabuse-smallteam(a)icann.org' <gnso-dnsabuse-smallteam(a)icann.org> Subject: Draft Categorization of DNS Abuse Mitigation Gaps Dear DNS Abuse Small Team, Following our recent discussions over the past three meetings, please find <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18PdZnH3OQ65NT9g0lGE6Y2toFaCrtxyf/ed it?gid=1836517289#gid=1836517289> here a draft categorization/clustering of the identified gaps in DNS abuse mitigation. The categorization is derived from the list of gaps shared during our last meeting. This draft reflects the key themes and inputs gathered from our group's review of the ICANN Org reports, the INFERMAL study, the NetBeacon White Paper, and other relevant materials mentioned in the assignment form. The aim of this categorization is to support a more structured and accessible discussion, particularly as we prepare for further engagement during ICANN83. It is intended to serve as a working tool to help cluster the gaps into overarching themes and which gaps may be best addressed through the ICANN Policy Development Process (PDP) and further investigated in an Issue Report, as well as which might be outside ICANN`s remit. Importantly, this version remains preliminary. Our collective input is essential to refine and expand on this list. Please include comments, corrections and additional suggestions. Items to consider when discussing and socializing this list within your respective SG/Cs, SO/ACs: * Whether the categorization/clustering aligns with your understanding of each gap * Any gaps you feel are missing or misclassified * Opportunities to clarify where further analysis is needed The goal of this exercise, aside from focusing our discussions, is to assist in identifying gaps and investigating further through an ICANN Issue Report as appropriate. As mentioned on the last call, the Request for Issue Report template expects a name of a Councilor but does not preclude the request coming from the Small Team, which is comprised of Councilors, if that our preference. Finally, please do come prepared to discuss your SG/C/SO/AC's input during our next scheduled call (June 20), thank you in advance for your review and contributions. Best, Jen
