The Group has published its Initial Report recommending not to make translation/transliteration of contact information mandatory but to allow for it on a voluntary basis. The public comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/transliteration-contact-initial-2014-…> period on this Report is open until 1 February 2015. To help the Community understand the Working Group's reasoning and to facilitate the submission of public comments, the Working Group co-Chairs will hold a 30-min webinar on Friday 16 January at 14:00 UTC. The aim is to present the preliminary recommendations and allow for an extended question and answer session, providing an opportunity for an interactive exchange between the Community and members of this PDPWorking Group. Webinar on 16 January 2015; 14.00-14.30 UTC To take part please RSVP via gnso-secs(a)icann.org<mailto:gnso-secs@icann.org>

- Informational Materials
by Steve Chan Dec. 9, 2014

Dec. 9, 2014

Dear DG Members, Staff committed to sending additional materials that may inform the work of this group. Please review at your earliest convenience. * In response to a GNSO Council resolution inviting the New gTLD Program Committee of the ICANN Board to provide input to the current and future gTLD application procedures, the ICANN Board passed the following resolution available here (https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2014-11-17-en#2. b). Contained within that resolution is Annex A, which highlights areas for possible policy work. Staff recommends reviewing Annex A as it may spur discussion on issues missed by this group and the expansion or updating of already captured issues (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolutions-annex-a-17nov14-en. pdf). * As there was some confusion about the process to request that the GNSO Council initiate an Issue Report, please consult the information available here: http://gnso.icann.org/en/node/31379/#Identification. As Marika mentioned on the call on 8 December, there is a set of information that is expected to be provided to allow the GNSO Council to make an informed decision. Within the PDP Manual, there is recommended format for a request for an Issue Report, which would certainly not prevent the DG from providing information beyond the recommended elements (template on page 2 - http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-16dec11-en.pdf) Please feel free to discuss on list. Best, Steven Chan Sr. Policy Manager ICANN 12025 Waterfront Drive, Suite 300 Los Angeles, CA 90094-2536 steve.chan(a)icann.org <mailto:steve.chan@icann.org> direct: +1.310.301.3886 mobile: +1.310.339.4410 tel: +1.310.301.5800 fax: +1.310.823.8649

Draft Issue Categorization
by David Payne Oct. 24, 2014

Oct. 24, 2014

Hello all I'm joining this group a little later than most, but I've now read all the meeting transcripts and many of the email threads to catch up. And according to the GAC, I have plenty of time to contribute! I visualize the work of this group falling into 3 phases (this was probably described by Bret during the session in Los Angeles): Collecting, organizing, and framing the issues. Collecting issues has already gone well. I think we're almost done with the organizing phase. The mind map is great. I like that it has multiple levels so many issues can be grouped under a manageable number of headers. I'm concerned, though, that there are so many issues still to uncover that it could become overwhelming. I've also had trouble finding only one place for several of the issues. I'd like to suggest a different style of mind map: the wheel chart. It has more spaces and a logic that's easy to follow. The inner layer contains the stakeholders, and the outer layer contains the procedures. At the center of it all is the TLD string. The top half of the stakeholders circle are those who are seeking to obtain rights to the string. The bottom half of stakeholders are those who wish to block the string. The location of a procedure aligns with the stakeholders who can use it. For example, an applicant who wishes to obtain a string must undergo evaluation. A rights holder who wishes to block the string must bring an objection. Issues that concern the string itself, such as IDNs, would be grouped directly in the middle. I've noticed that most issues relate either to the string at the top level or strings at the second level. For example, a legal rights objection is about rights to the top level string, while the TMCH is about rights to second level domains. So I've created a different wheel for second level issues, with the same division of stakeholders (those seeking to obtain and those seeking to block). Between the two wheels, it's easy to sort all of the issues that will arise. I've found I can find a clear location for almost any issue by following the three steps in the diagram: 1. Is the issue about the top level string or domains at the second level? 1. Who is the proponent of the issue? Is the stakeholder seeking to obtain a string or block it? 3. Which procedure would that stakeholder currently use to do so? Like the current mind map, this one can unwrap into a standard outline. The two wheels become two pillars (or articles). The inner layer (stakeholders) would be the main headings and the outer layer (procedures) make up the subheadings. That will be more practical when we move beyond this discussion group. David
