Hello everyone,

Thanks to George and Jay for nominating Phil – Phil, can you confirm if you’d be willing to serve as co-chair of this WG?

Everyone – please send any other nominations in ASAP.

On a different note, staff is currently working on a preliminary document that will attempt to “break down” the many questions we have been asked to answer in our Working Group Charter into more manageable tasks. This will include proposed categorization of the questions into different, themed topics, and suggestions as to preliminary versus later work as well as a possible timeline – all for WG discussion at the next meeting. We will also be sending out a Briefing Note shortly, as requested at our first meeting, on the status of the consensus recommendations from the original IGO INGO PDP Working Group that may affect or be of relevance to our work going forward.

Finally, if you haven’t yet filled in the Doodle poll to set our meeting schedule (including the date of the next meeting), please do so at your earliest convenience: http://doodle.com/za2gf9c3vknct78q. We hope to be able to confirm at least the next meeting for the first week of September by early next week, so thank you for your cooperation!

Cheers, and have a good weekend, all,
Mary

Subject: Re: [Gnso-igo-ingo-crp] Call for Co-Chair nominations and Action Items from the first Working Group meeting

I nominate Phil Corwin.

I understand someone else was trying to send a nomination for him, but it wasn't going through to the list; perhaps the mailing list is having tech issues, as there have been no emails in the past 9 days according to the archive at:

Dear all,

As agreed on the Working Group (WG) call earlier today, nominations are now open for candidates to be Co-Chairs of this WG. As discussed, the complexity and nature of the work means that having more than one co-chair would likely ensure greater fairness and diversity in representation in the WG leadership, and allow for more effective and efficient management of the WG workload and meetings. Please therefore nominate a WG member or members for the two co-chair positions by sending your nominations to this mailing list by Friday 22 August 2014. You may nominate another WG member(s) or self-nominate.

Two nominations have been received so far: Petter Rindforth (IPC) and Mason Cole (Registries SG). 

Please also find below the "action items” that staff noted from our call today:

For ICANN staff:
  1. Send Doodle poll to schedule the next WG meeting for early September (note: the WG will likely hold weekly meetings of one hour each, with longer meetings when warranted)
  2. Provide update on current status of prior IGO-INGO PDP recommendations and Board/GAC/GNSO discussions (staff will send an update to this mailing list within the next week)
  3. Invite WIPO and the National Arbitration Forum (NAF) to make brief presentations on the UDRP and URS to the WG
  4. Invite interested IGOs and INGOs to provide information/make a presentation to the WG on their experiences/problems with using the UDRP and URS
  5. Prepare a chart/grouping of all the Charter questions, to form the basis of a draft Work Plan
  6. Compile list (starting with George’s initial suggestions) of possible resources for WG data gathering and research, to be posted to the WG’s wiki space
For WG members:
  1. Nominate candidates for co-chairs (see above)
  2. Familiarize yourself with the WG Charter, GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP), WG Guidelines and other background information; these can all be found on the WG wiki space: https://community.icann.org/x/37rhAg (note that all the MP3 recordings, public Adobe Connect chat history and meeting transcripts will also be posted to the wiki after each call)
  3. Respond to the Doodle poll for the next meeting, when this is sent
  4. Identify expertise/contacts for any of the WG Charter topics (per Petter’s last email to the list)
Thank you all for joining the call today. For those who were not able to make the call, or who are just now joining our WG, welcome!

Cheers
Mary
