Dear Drafting Team 7, As those who were on today’s call heard, we have decided to take a week to prep for ICANN61 by working on a specific assignment in drafting team mode. Our team’s assignment is to reexamine our past output on Criminal Activity/ DNS Abuse Mitigation: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/74580010/DraftingTeam7-Crim... to answer the following questions more explicitly and conceptually: 1. Who associated with the domain name registration needs to be identified and/or contacted for each purpose? 2. What is the objective achieved by identifying and/or contacting each of those entities? 3. What might be expected of that entity with regard to the domain name? To prep for ICANN61, it is imperative that we discuss these questions and produce output over the next week – ideally by 5 March but no later than 7 March. We know this is a tall order, give a short timeframe. However, the leadership believes that this will help us use our F2F time at ICANN61 more effectively, which I hope we all agree would be a terrific idea. To give us a head start, attached please find a first draft at answers, prepared by me from our past output, and raising a few potential gaps for discussion. To learn more about this assignment, please read these instructions: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/79432608/Drafting%20Team%20.... If you were unable to attend today’s WG call, please catch up by reading or listening to the call recording/notes/transcript: https://community.icann.org/x/oAu8B. To get started, please ask any questions you may have about this assignment within the next 24 hours. If you have any suggested edits or additions or deletions to the attached first draft, even better!
