Dear Wolf-Ulrich and Standing Committee on Improvements Implementation (SCI) Members: According to the GNSO Operating Procedures <http://gnso.icann.org/council/gnso-op-procedures-08apr11-en.pdf>, Chapter 5–Statements of Interest, Section 5.3.2-Electronic Form and Publication, “To ensure consistency, ICANN Staff shall develop, maintain, and provide to Relevant Parties an electronic Statement of Interest form including procedures and instructions pertaining to its completion online.” In the past month, ICANN Staff has developed and tested a draft online Statement of Interest (SOI) solution within ICANN’s new Confluence GNSO Wiki area. Before we finalize and publicize within the GNSO, we would like to invite the SCI to be the first official GNSO group to test the new draft solution and to provide us with valuable feedback. In particular, we have created a draft new Wiki SOI page according to Section 5.3.3 of the above-referenced GNSO Operating Procedures. Features of the draft new SOI solution include: * All SOIs located in one convenient area within the official GNSO Wiki site; * An online form set up according to the new SOI procedures.; * The option for the person creating the SOI to restrict editing rights once the new SOI page has been created; * The ability for Working Groups and teams to reference the Wiki SOI page link when building a membership roster; and * The ability to browse and search all SOIs in the Wiki space. The draft SOI Wiki site is located at: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/GNSO+Statements+of+Interest+%28S.... You will need a Login ID and Password to access this space within the Wiki site. We will be providing that information to each of you separately. Once you receive that email invitation, please go to the above link and follow the instructions provided. You will see that we have uploaded a 10-minute tutorial which explains the SOI solution and walks through each of the steps to create a new SOI. Thank you for your participation and we appreciate your feedback. Please let us know if you need any assistance. Julie Julie Hedlund Policy Director
All, We have requested rights for all of you to access the wiki, however they are not in place yet. We will let you know as soon as they are established.

Hi Wolf-Ulrich, It may be that you (and others) still don’t have editing rights. Avri noted that she was unable to edit. I have asked IT to confirm that all WG members have rights to edit in addition to access. Please stand by until I can confirm that everything is set up correctly. Thanks so much for your help and also for your patience as we work this out! Best, Julie On 6/11/11 4:09 AM, "Wolf-Ulrich Knoben" <KnobenW@telekom.de> wrote: Hi, I don't have a problem to log on.

Hi, I actually forgot to do that step. Ken ended up doing it for me. And when I went back to look the restrictions indicator in the edit just now to be able to tell you, I did not see one. sorry, a. On 13 Jun 2011, at 13:57, J. Scott Evans wrote:

Dear SC members, Thank you to those of you who use the online wiki to complete your SOI. We really appreciate the comments you have given us. We would like to finalize the form, so if you have not tested it please do so by this **Friday, 29 July.** We need to get the final form out to the GNSO community so that they can begin to use it to submit or modify their SOIs. This will ensure that community members provide the information required by the procedures. (We’ve already had an instance of someone using an old form to update an SOI, so the sooner we complete this, the better.) Here is the link to the wiki: https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/GNSO+Statements+of+Interest+%28S.... Please let us know how it works for you. Thanks! Julie
