Michelle DeSmyter:Meeting agenda page: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_x_… Jeff Neuman:2 mins to start time Jeff Neuman:ok...lets get started Robin Gross:Reminder: WT3 tomorrow (2 May 20:00 UTC) will discuss freedom of expression and GAC Advice (Category 1 & 2 strings). Please join. Michelle DeSmyter:yes Rubens Kuhl:Yes we can. Quoc Pham:yes Julie Hedlund:Anne has raised her hand. Emily Barabas:Correct, he document is unsynced Julie Hedlund:The document is unsynced. Julie Hedlund:Anyone can move it. avri doria:yes avri doria:lots of lag tnight Karen Day:We sound like a Verizon commercial :) Steve Chan:detail? Emily Barabas:For those who who would like to follow along in the Google Doc, the link is here: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_docume… Jeff Neuman:i am in Jeff Neuman:i can help Steve Chan:Back to you Jeff :) Emily Barabas:The CCT-RT Report provides context on the recommendation 10 on page 55-56: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste… Emily Barabas:Using these data, we determined: (1) whether each of the trademarks in our data wasregistered by the trademark holder in least one legacy gTLD; (2) whether the same string wasregistered by the trademark holder in at least one new gTLD and (3) for those strings thatwere registered by the trademark holder in at least one new gTLD, the number of new gTLDsin which the trademark holder had registered the string. We found that 54% of the stringsthat were registered in a legacy gTLD were also registered in at least one a new gTLD. We alsofound that, of these strings, 3 was the median number of registrations in new gTLDs. That is,half of the trademarks that were analyzed were registered in 3 or fewer new gTLDs.121 We alsofound that three-quarter of these strings were registered in 7 or fewer new gTLDs and that90% of these strings were registered in 17 or fewer new gTLDs.122 At the same time, a smallnumber of trademarked strings were registered in a large number of TLDs: 4% of trademarkswere registered in at least 100 Emily Barabas:new gTLDs, and one was registered in 406 new gTLDs. Extrapolating the sample across all marks, we would expect that trademark holders wouldhave made approximately 80,000 total registrations of their trademarks in new gTLDs as ofSeptember 2016, which represents .3% of all registrations within new gTLDs123. We concludefrom this analysis that, although the direct cost of the New gTLD Program for most trademarkholders related to defensive registrations appears to be lower than some had feared priorto the inception of the program, a small fraction of trademark holders are likely incurringsignificant costs. Emily Barabas:The recommended edit was submitted by Kristina Rosette Emily Barabas:Sure Justine Chew:I think Kristina's proposal to (if I understand her correctly) include her comment to the high level overview section is sound. Robin Gross:I agree. Jim Prendergast:that's a good point Jeff Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):agree with you there Jeff Justine Chew:Agree with you, Jeff. CCT-RT not policy determinator. Steve Chan:How about, "If not, please provide additional details and clarity" Julie Hedlund:Anne has her hand up. Emily Barabas:This language reflects comments made in the last meeting by Alan Greenberg Emily Barabas:Apologies, this is an error on the staff side Emily Barabas:this paragraph should have been placed in the following recommendation Julie Hedlund:Anne has hand up and Greg. Julie Hedlund:@Anne: Staff may not have got it right. Defer to Jeff. Justine Chew:Can staff check and clarify what we should be looking at then please? avri doria:made voluntariily Justine Chew:Voluntary means non-mandatory, isn't it? Julie Hedlund:@Justine: Staff will check the recording. Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):seems to need wordsmiithing Justine Chew:@Julie, got it, thanks. avri doria:have you tried walking away from ICANN Justine Chew:Lol Justine Chew:Any PICs submitted, if submitted..... Greg Shatan:@Avri, to paraphrase Mark Twain on smoking: Quitting ICANN is easy; I've done it thousands of times. Emily Barabas:I believe this edit was proposed by Kristina Rosette Alexander Schubert:So instead of Caribbean offshores portfolio applicants might be incentived by choosing the Seychelles? Emily Barabas:I think you covered everything Anne Aikman-Scalese (IPC):@staff - you guys are doing a great job in the notes - hope I did not imply otherwise!

Dear Anne, If I am understanding your comment/suggestion properly, staff has attempted to incorporate the issues raised by you and Kristina Rosette in the last sentence of the comments to Recommendation 14. I’ve extracted that sentence for your consideration here: “Finally, it would be helpful if the CCT-RT would clarify how the reference to “relationship of content of a gTLD to its name” is consistent with Section 1.1(c) of the ICANN Bylaws.” If you do not feel that this sentence adequately captures your concerns, you can suggest updated text in the Google doc directly and/or discuss the topic during the upcoming call. Best, Steve From: "Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman(a)lrrc.com> Date: Monday, May 1, 2017 at 5:05 PM To: Steve Chan <steve.chan(a)icann.org>, "gnso-newgtld-wg(a)icann.org" <gnso-newgtld-wg(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ext] RE: [Gnso-newgtld-wg] Proposed Agenda: New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Working Group, 2 May 2017 at 03:00 UTC Thank you. Regarding the proposed change to the comments as to Recommendation 14, I think this question would have to be rephrased to ask how the Recommendation fits within the Mission specified in 1.1 (a). The reason for this is that the big “carve-out” from 1.1 (c) is the “express scope of Section 1.1(a)”: So it seems the question in the draft comment to Recommendation 14 would have to be “How is this recommendation consistent with the express scope of ICANN’s Mission as set forth in Section 1.1(a) of the ByLaws?” The draft comment currently says: “On the 10 April WG call, members of the CCT-RT provided additional context for this recommendation. According to the CCT-RT members, research findings indicate that end users expect to see a relationship between TLDs and the meaning of the string and/or usage of associated domains. It seems that the spirit of this recommendation is to create incentives to encourage that correlation, so as to promote user trust.” Section 1.1(a) of the ByLaws provides: Section 1.1. MISSION (a) The mission of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”) is to ensure the stable and secure operation of the Internet’s unique identifier systems as described in this Section 1.1(a) (the “Mission”). Specifically, ICANN: (i) Coordinates the allocation and assignment of names in the root zone of the Domain Name System (“DNS”) and coordinates the development and implementation of policies concerning the registration of second-level domain names in generic top-level domains (“gTLDs”). In this role, ICANN’s scope is to coordinate the development and implementation of policies: For which uniform or coordinated resolution is reasonably necessary to facilitate the openness, interoperability, resilience, security and/or stability of the DNS including, with respect to gTLD registrars and registries, policies in the areas described in Annex G-1 and Annex G-2; and That are developed through a bottom-up consensus-based multistakeholder process and designed to ensure the stable and secure operation of the Internet’s unique names systems.
