Update on Chapter 1 (20min) * ICANN Org presented the flagged recommendations/conclusions. SC Chair noted that these recommendations/conclusions will be discussed during ICANN82 if needed. * Areas flagged: * Clarification needed regarding ticketing systems and response times. * Conclusion on RDRS forms might be too subjective. * Conclusion regarding «required timeframe for requestor responses» is not supported by all SC members. * SC members need further clarification on the conclusions regarding denial responses. * ICANN Org will address the concerns in draft chapter 1 and will provide additional language for consideration. * Discussion on whether anecdotal reporting should be included. * SC members raised concerns that some registrars deny requests outright if the "confidential request" checkbox is selected. * SC members countered that RDRS does not support legal due process for such requests. * It was suggested that rather than reporting anecdotal data, the issue could be flagged as an area for future research and improvement in the final findings report. 1. Discussion on Chapter 2 (20min) * Sarah Wyld asked for clarification on the scope of APIs (whether it’s one API or multiple APIs). * Gabriel Andrews clarified that the API is intended to integrate with existing law enforcement tools and enable authentication. * Sarah Wyld flagged missing pending enhancements from the report: * Pending input status for tracking requests. * Ability to change request outcomes or create linked follow-ups. * Missing enhancements will be added to the document. * Discussion on whether the platform should continue to be based on Salesforce or if an external solution should be considered. SC members noted the suggestion to consider an external solution should remain in chapter 2. * SC members noted that standardization of APIs, rather than a single central platform, is key to ensuring interoperability. 1.
