However, we do have time to incorporate the new IG into our report and as I said in my previous email it’s not inconsistent with our discussions on the topic or our rationale. Thanks again everyone.

After the Team confirmed all Outputs last week, your support staff reached out to the ccNSO support staff for the ccNSO to be informed of the updates to Outputs 18-20 following the public comment process. Unfortunately, they provided us with feedback requesting that ccNSO’s consideration process be included again to Final Recommendation 20, to become: “…approved by the GNSO Council after consulting the ccNSO Council, prior to consideration by the ICANN Board.” Their rationale was that though not directly affected, ccTLDs that register IDNs at the second-level will be affected by the Guidelines and are expected to abide by them. Hence, the request was for a consultation mechanism to be included in the Output to ensure that the ccNSO Council is involved while the ccTLDs are informed throughout the whole process. To reflect ccNSO’s request while also considering the Team’s agreement, and so as not to interrupt the current work plan, the leadership proposes a new implementation guidance to supplement the current Final Recommendation 20, and the proposal is as follows: Implementation Guidance 21: "The GNSO Council should consult with the ccNSO Council prior to taking action on any future versions of the IDN Implementation Guidelines." (Current language for Consensus Call) Final Recommendation 20: “Any future versions of the IDN Implementation Guidelines must be approved by the GNSO Council prior to consideration by the ICANN Board.” Kindly review the proposal together with your respective groups and provide feedback through the mailing list by Thursday, 26 September 2024 at 23:59 UTC. If no objections are received by then, leadership will circulate the updated consensus designation document for the Team to continue participating in the consensus call (responding to the mailing list with accept or not accept) that started on 20 September 2024. The deadline of the consensus call will remain unchanged (Monday, 30 September 2024 at 22:30 UTC). Thank you again for all your kind cooperation.

The leadership team has proposed a consensus designation for every final Output that the EPDP Team has finalized by 20 September 2024. These consensus designations are contained in the attached pdf document titled, “[P2 Final Report] Leadership Proposed Consensus Designation.” This Consensus Call process opens today, Friday, 20 September, 2024 at 22:30 UTC, for a 10-day period, closing on Monday, 30 September, 2024 at 22:30 UTC. In accordance with the GNSO Working Group Guidelines [gnso.icann.org] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/f...> , the EPDP Team Members are required to indicate via reply to this message whether they accept, or do not accept, the leadership team’s proposed consensus designations. If no objection is raised by any Member, the consensus designation is considered accepted by that EPDP Team Member. If you do not respond before Monday, 30 September, 2024 at 22:30 UTC, the leadership team will take this as acceptance of the consensus designations. If any objection is raised for any specific final Output(s), the leadership team is expected to reevaluate the consensus designation of such Output(s) and publish an updated designation to be reviewed by the EPDP Team. In the event there is no disagreement by the EPDP Team with the proposed consensus designations, your Support Staff will incorporate the Final Outputs into the Phase 2 Final Report. As set out in the EPDP Team Charter <https://community.icann.org/display/epdpidn/2.+Charter?preview=/166265992/16...> , only Members appointed by their representative groups are expected to participate in the Consensus Call process. Participants and observers will not be able to participate. For reference, please also see the attached document titled “[P2 Final] FINAL OUTPUTS (ONLY)” that contains the nineteen (19) Outputs to be included in the Phase 2 Final Report. For more information about the Consensus Call, you may review the GNSO Working Group Guidelines [gnso.icann.org] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/f...> or the EPDP Team Charter [gnso.icann.org] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/f...> (Section VI: Decision Making Methodologies) (both documents also linked above).
