FW: Statement on Red Cross names - methodology and implementation - from Mason Cole
by Mary Wong Nov. 9, 2017

Nov. 9, 2017

Dear all, For your information, please find below a statement that Mason Cole, a member of this Working Group, made during the Open Microphone session at the GNSO Council’s Public Meeting held on 1 November 2017 in Abu Dhabi. Staff would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone of Berry Cobb’s message to this mailing list, sent on 1 November following on the staff notes of the informal Working Group meeting earlier that day. Berry had sent an example table that he used during the meeting that attempts to propose a framework for developing the finite list of Red Cross identifiers to be protected: see his email and the table at http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gnso-igo-ingo/2017-November/000105.html. Staff would also like to reiterate Berry’s request that Stephane provide an electronic copy of the handouts he brought to the informal meeting that also listed some examples of Red Cross identifiers. Stephane: if you can circulate that document to this mailing list at your earliest convenience, that in combination with Berry’s examples is likely to be very useful to the Working Group as it continues its discussions. Finally, staff is consulting with Thomas as to the likely date and time for our next call; we will circulate more information as soon as we can. Thanks and cheers Mary From: Mason Cole <mason(a)donuts.email> Date: Wednesday, November 1, 2017 at 15:18 As a member of the IGO/INGO working group, I’d like to raise two concerns. The first regards the methodology around development of the list of Red Cross names that are to be reserved. The proposal is that “exact match” names of the organizations be reserved, as well as what are known as “common names.” For example — the American Red Cross Society as an exact name, and the American Red Cross or The Red Cross as common names. And as you know, each name is to be reserved in multiple configurations of language and IDN. There is a concern that there will be claims to what are termed common names far beyond what was initially speculated. There’s no criteria or standard for identifying a common name, so one presumably relies on the word of each provider. However, that opens the door to potentially exponential multiplication of the name list that may not be warranted in all cases. Or it could lead an organization to claim that an acronym constitutes a common name. The GNSO obviously supports the effort around formal names, as they’re unquestionable identifiers, but there should be concern about opening the process to numerous and potentially less unquestionably linked common names or acronyms. The second concern is the methodology for adding the names of new societies to the reserved list. The current proposal is that once a Red Cross organization is chartered, the GAC can make a request directly to ICANN staff for inclusion of that name on the list. Staff presumably would then notify GDD, who would instruct contracted parties to accommodate the new names. This is alarming on several fronts. 1) It impacts our contracts. 2) It puts the GAC in a position to instruct staff directly with regard to policy, with no GNSO involvement. 3) There’s little incentive for the GAC to withhold more from its wish list in such a scenario. It would be much more preferable for the GNSO to be part of the process on policy that eventually impacts our contracts. I believe the GAC, in its communique, reaffirm its Durban advice that Red Cross and IGO acronyms should be reserved permanently. So I urge the council to carefully consider these matters in the context of the Red Cross and IGO names.

GAC Communique - section on Red Cross names
by Mary Wong Nov. 2, 2017

Nov. 2, 2017

Dear all, The GAC Communique from ICANN60 has just been published, and contains a paragraph on our work. Note that it is not in the section that contains formal GAC advice, and does not contain a specific request to this Working Group; however, I thought you may wish to note the GAC’s remarks. The relevant text is: “Following its most recent advice adopted in the Copenhagen and Johannesburg Communiqués, the GAC welcomed the progress made by the GNSO's re-convened PDP Working Group on the Protection of IGO-INGO Identifiers in All gTLDs, tasked with re-examining the GNSO’s past recommendations on the protection of Red Cross and Red Crescent designations, names and identifiers – particularly of the names of national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies. The GAC noted that the acronyms of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC, CICR, MKKK) and of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC, FICR) are defined to fall outside of the remit of the reconvened GNSO Working Group and recalled its advice (Durban Communiqué, 2013) that these acronyms be made to benefit from the same cost neutral mechanisms to be worked out for the protection of acronyms of IGOs.” The full Communique can be viewed here: https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/27132037/GAC%20ICANN60%20Comm… Thanks and cheers Mary

We will post it and the transcript (when available) to the Working Group wiki space noted in Julie’s message. ACTION ITEMS: * Staff to circulate Doodle poll for informal meeting in Abu Dhabi – as this proposed meeting will be informal, with no remote participation facilities available, no decisions will be made and the proceedings will be reported back to the full WG for further discussion. * Working Group to continue to discuss possible principles for determining what names go on the definitive list to be implemented – based on the initial suggestions from the Red Cross representatives and the notes of the discussion from today (see below). NOTES: * The original PDP recommendation related to the following Red Cross identifiers (termed “Scope 2 Identifiers” in the Working Group’s Final Report): 189 recognized National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies; International Committee of the Red Cross; International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies; ICRC, CICR, CICV, MKKK, IFRC, FICR (National Society names protected in English, as well as in their respective national languages; ICRC & IFRC identifiers protected in the 6 United Nations languages). * The scope of this reconvened Working Group does not extend to considering acronyms - we have been tasked to consider the specific Red Cross names at issue. * The contents of the current list of Red Cross identifiers placed under interim reservation by the Board are likely to change once this Working Group’s proposals are accepted. Discussion of Possible Principles for Defining the Final List of Names: * For the International Movement - Full Match of the following, in the six official UN languages: o International Committee of the Red Cross o International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies o POSSIBLE ADDITION (also in UN6): International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement? International Movement of the Red Cross and Red Crescent? * For the National Societies - o What is a "usual name" (as proposed by the Red Cross in Stephane’s most recent email)? This needs to be clarified and understood - is there a formal list? The Council's direction was for a specific and finite set of names, with specified limited variants. o One possibility is to limit the list to "official (full) names" - in their respective national language(s); however, the concept of "usual names" can be refined, e.g. "commonly used". o No objection to including "usual names" as long as the meaning is clearly understood, and there can be a finite list (Note: By "usual" name this is normally the Society name without the word "Society" without the addition of the article "The"). o It may be clearer to use the phrase "official and commonly known names" instead; however, is there a way to ensure that this is specific enough i.e. a definitive list? Can we use something like the TMCH requirement of demonstrating "use"? Alternatively, for "commonly known", can we use the criteria in the additional draft principles suggested by the Red Cross? o Discussion to continue on this topic, and the additional suggested draft principles submitted by the Red Cross representatives.

Osvaldo Novoa:hello all, I am in Brazil in a hotel with a very slow WiFi, so my access is somewhat limited Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):sorry - coming in late Mary Wong:No worries, Thomas - we're a team! Mary Wong:Here is the link from Berry's email: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_sites_de… Mary Wong:And note that these Red Cross names are reserved on an interim basis until the issue is resolved, which is what our reconvened WG has been tasked to try to do. Jeff Neuman:Just to confirm - the list at that link - is that the list of currently protected names, or the list they want protected Mary Wong:Current Julie Bisland:Stephane, you should be able to speak into phone, as it is unmuted Julie Bisland:maybe move on while the operator troubleshoots his line Mary Wong:@Jeff, it is possible that the final list will look somewhat different from what is at the current link. Hankins:Sorry for this please go ahead... Berry Cobb:@Jeff, the link is what is currently protected. The attached word doc was a list at a first attempt to reconcile the names. Berry Cobb:@Jeff, those acronyms and out of scope for this reconvened group. Berry Cobb:"are" not and Berry Cobb:Apologies to the WG. I have contractors directly behind me with too much noise to contribute via audio. Mary Wong:@Jeff, the list is currently what is (temporarily) reserved - that is why they are in the document marked up by Stephane and his team. Jeff Neuman:But acronymns are on both lists Jeff Neuman:both the list from Berry as well as the one from Stephane Mary Wong:At the moment, yes - b/c they were reserved per Board direction on an interim basis. Mary Wong:We only have that one list at the moment - we don't yet have a list FROM this group since we haven't agreed on the formula and criteria. Jeff Neuman:Under the GNSO policy that we passed, what is the list of names that would be protected. That is what I would like to see Jeff Neuman:not the ones that are currently protected by the Board Jeff Neuman:or the ones proposed Mary Wong:@Jeff - we don't have a full list of those, with their DNS labels and language variants - since those were NOT adopted by the Board (hence our work here in this group), and so have NOT moved into implementation. Jeff Neuman:Thanks Mary, I have my hand raised Jeff Neuman:to discuss Mary Wong:You're welcome! So, basically all we have as an implementable list (which is what is on screen here) is the list of a few RC identifiers that were approved under the original PDP (Page 1), and the rest of the list is the TEMPORARY reserved list (which is why acronyms are included, but which is NOT expected to be the final list coming out of our work). Hopefully that helps. Julie Bisland:reminder: please mute Mary Wong:Stephane also had a number of comments and specific questions in his email that we have not extracted for this document, but we have them ready for discussion if needed. Berry Cobb:I'd just like to point out that the use of "hypens" is a part of that algrorithm when we convert the formal names. So that is automatic in that regard. Mary Wong:I believe Stephane is referring to this part of his email: "Names already included by the Board in the list of reserved names such as “magen david adom”, “red star of david”, but also “international red cross and red crescent movement” in the 6 UN languages (that is the Statutory name endorsed by the States), etc. " Mary Wong:Done, Thomas Jeff Neuman:So, adding the word "movement" to all of them? Jeff Neuman:So long as we are just talking in terms of full names and not abbreviations, I guess no issues Hankins:Mary - I am referring to the name "International Movement of the Red Cross and Red Crescent", that is the statutory name of the Movement / endorsed by States Jeff Neuman:internationalredandcrossredcrescentmovement (Is that more than 63 characters?) Berry Cobb:63 Char issues will be an output of the algorithm. This discussion is about which formal designations will be reservered. Berry Cobb:Should they be >63, they will not be added to any future reserved list Jeff Neuman:internationalmovementoftheredcrossandredcrescent.TLD Jeff Neuman:I hear you Berry....I just like to visualize Jeff Neuman:Lets just make sure we are really precise in the principle Berry Cobb:Time check - 15 minutes. Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):We need to protect usual names - although this is a criterion it would take form of a finite number of names pursuant to the list produced by the ICRC Mason Cole:Thomas, should it be defined as the official "full" name for avoidance of doubt? Osvaldo Novoa:Sorry, I have to leave now. I will read the transcript. Best regards. Thomas Rickert:bye Osvaldo Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):@Jeff: I will leave that to Stephane -but we should avoid a chicken and egg problem as in the end the criterion will be complemented with a finite list the way I understand this effort Jeff Neuman:Right....so if the official name is "American National Red Cross", but the "usual name" is "American Red Cross", I think that is fine. Jeff Neuman:Can we change "usual" to "commonly known" Mary Wong:I've tried to capture all this in the chat, Jeff Mary Wong:Notes, I mean, sorry Jeff Neuman:I think there is yes Mary Wong:We will need a specific list to implement - possibly with a clear formula to update, but it can't be open ended. Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):I feel staff would need to rely on the info offered by the ICRC, which I presume will be reasonably limited Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):the burden on the ICRC should be proportionate and reasonable Jeff Neuman:Jorge - I am not saying this is a huge burden. If it is a "usual" name, then how hard would it be to point to examples Jeff Neuman:In other words...for American Red Cross, you just have to say "look at Redcross.org" Jeff Neuman:That's not a burden Jeff Neuman:For British Red Cross, look at "https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.redcross.org.uk_&d=…" Mary Wong:From the staff side, we request that ICANN not be placed in the position of making decisions as to what goes and what does not go on the list. Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):@Thomas: if you invite us for a good coffee, I'll be there ;-) Mary Wong:We will send a Doodle poll if that is beetter Jeff Neuman:Mary - using the examples I provided, I think we can both affirmatively state that ICANN wil not be in tough position Jeff Neuman:But if the Board wants us to revise out policies, staff should be willing to take on additional responsibilities Jorge Cancio (GAC Switzerland):we have to balance trust and burden of proof...
