Dear Anne, all, Thanks to you and others for pointing out the challenges of dealing with only a PDF. Your concerns are noted and we will be sure to include as both Word and PDF going forward. Best, Steve From: "Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman@lrrc.com> Date: Tuesday, April 17, 2018 at 11:12 AM To: 'Jeff Neuman' <jeff.neuman@comlaude.com>, Steve Chan <steve.chan@icann.org>, "gnso-newgtld-wg@icann.org" <gnso-newgtld-wg@icann.org> Subject: [Ext] RE: [Gnso-newgtld-wg] Proposed agenda - New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG - 16 April 2018 at 20:00 UTC A pdf presents the lease convenient option for participation– and the most difficult and time-consuming to suggest changes via e-mail. Those not using Microsoft Word for document creation can still copy text from a Word document using any number of free applications on numerous platforms. They can then paste that text into e-mail to preserve your version control. Anne E.

We will look into finding other ways to handle this. We know everyone can’t use Google Docs and Microsoft Word also presents issues for those not using Microsoft and for version control. Will address the substance of your comments separately. Thanks again. Jeffrey J.

Could staff please also forward a Word copy in future with the pdf? (In addition, we do need to see these drafts with more time prior to the call where the WG will be addressing them. ) Following the guidelines you set out for comment on today’s call, the section on the Predictability Framework does not reflect the discussions in the WG. The following additions/changes are needed to avoid the conflict with existing ICANN Board adopted policy in this arena: Under Section 1.2.2 Predictability, item c., Please add the following first sentence. “Currently, as a result of recommendations made by the GNSO, the ICANN Board implemented a process for issues that arise during the implementation phase that permits the GNSO to provide “GNSO Input” or “GNSO Guidance” on an issue or to advise the Board that the issue requires either a full or Expedited PDP. Guidelines for these processes are provided in the GNSO’s Consensus Policy Implementation Framework (“CPIF”). In the second sentence, please change “The Working Group believes that” to “there is support in the Working Group for a recommendation that”. In the section “Anticipated Outcome”, please add the following after the first sentence: “The existing CPIF also recognizes this fact and provides for three mechanisms that mandate a process for additional advice where issues arise.” However, many in the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG are seeking to establish a supplemental framework (designed to apply when implementation is complete) which, even in the event of changes, etc etc.” In the last sentence in that section on “Anticipated Outcome”, the use of the term “after program launch” is unclear. “Launch” is a clear term as to a particular TLD. Acceptance of applications could be considered “launch” of the next round, but at that time, there would likely still be an IRT. What exactly do we mean by “implementation is considered complete” and who makes that determination? In the Section “Details of the Predictability Framework”, please Delete a portion of the second sentence of this section after the word, “ambiguities” and insert the following: “The GNSO proposed and the Board adopted a process whereby the GNSO could provide additional input with respect to various issues which might arise in the implementation phase”. Then begin the new sentence. “The WG is considering proposing the addition of a fourth element to be known as the ‘Predictability Framework” etc etc. (No need for underlining in the actual text – I show this only for emphasis on the requested changes.) In the Section entitled “What specific questions are the PDP WG seeking feedback on?”, please add the following question: How do you see the proposed Predictability Framework interacting with the existing CPIF procedures known as GNSO Input, GNSO Guidance, and GNSO Expedited PDP? In other words, when would these processes be utilized and when would application of the Predictability Framework make more sense? Thank you, Anne Anne E.
