2024-04-22 RDRS Standing Committee - Meeting #06

Main discussion and action items

1.Welcome

·              Chair raised awareness of the ICANN80 session organized by CSG on RDRS.

2. RDRS Usage Report

• Overview of Changes from Last Report (ICANN org Support Staff)
• Reactions from Standing Committee
  • Org informed that they published RDRS usage data (latest report and all previous ones) now also have  CSV file.
  • Org highlighted in the current report on the page that lists the participating registrars, the percentage of dums covered by the participating registrars.
  • Members asked to have data visualization like in the sankey versions. Org explained that that would require a high level of effort.

AI: Staff to check again on sankey visualization and reasoning.

AI: Org and Chair to look into the Sankey report matter and see where the effort is needed.

3.Finalizing Metric Report changes

·              Members were asking regarding the update on from which country LE requests have been made? Last discussion proposed to make the country of origin field mandatory. Org informed that change has not been implemented yet, but it is on the list of enhancements to be made to require address and phone.

AI: Org called for members to go through the impressions document and prioritize requests. Staff will estimate the level of effort.

·              Members noted that questions on compulsory legal process documents are not needed, as LE will not use RDRS to convey compulsory legal process. Once the work of that process is done RDRS is not needed to identify registrars. RDRS is more of a tool to identify a registrar prior to going through the legal process.

·               

4.AOB

• Postpone or cancel 6 May call due to the CP Summit?

AI: Members agreed to cancel the meeting on 6 May. The next meeting (on 20 May) after that should focus on both data and  system enhancements   of RDRS.

• Prep-Week Session on RDRS: 29 May 16:30 UTC. This meeting will be an RDRS update of about the 6 month mark.

AI: Members proposed to have a 6 months milestone call on RDRS. Chair proposed to have a dedicated session during ICANN80 on this?

• Members discussed the CSG meeting that will take place in Kigali. They discussed the format and that registrar are envisioning a  meeting with similar focus, where they could discuss anonymised case examples.
• SC proposed to have registrars at the table of CSG meeting to contextualize various statements or matters that might be discussed during the meeting.
• Members proposed that the moderator for the CSG session should com from the Standing Committee on RDRS.
