Adobe Connect chat transcript for 16 November 2017

 Nathalie Peregrine:Dear all, welcome to the GNSO Review Working Group call on Thursday 16 November at 12:00 UTC 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:hi all...hope everyone is doing fine... 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:thanks forthe update 

Sara Bockey:it stayed the same for me - 5am - AZ does observe DST :) 

Sara Bockey:oops....doesn't observe 

Marika Konings:We are trying to get hold of Julie - unfortunately she is the expert on this topic so it is difficult for other staff members to jump in :-( 

Berry Cobb:@Sara, I do miss that part of AZ. ;-) 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:should not be a big issue 

Nathalie Peregrine:Rafik Dammak has joined the call 

rafik:thanks Wolf-Ulrich 

rafik:hi all 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:no good....let's move 

Pascal Bekono:hi all 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:suggest 1 week 

Lawrence Olawale-Roberts:hi all 

Marika Konings:An interesting suggestion was made during the public forum at ICANN60 to 'force' people to keep SOIs up to date - what if an SOI expires after x amount of time so that people have to review / update their SOI on a regular basis. 

Marika Konings:because that seems to be one of the main issues at the moment, that people forget to check / update their SOIs when changes occur 

Marika Konings:Similarly, with GDPR, additional consideration may need to be given with regards to how consent is requested and access to this info? Not sure whether this is in scope for the WG, but something that staff may need to look into? 

rafik:@Marika I have feeling that current platform is not optimal for SOI management 

Marika Konings:@Rafik - yes, I think you are absolutely right. Staff has been pushing for a WG sign up tool which would also manage SOIs as the wiki is definitely not ideal. 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:perhaps have a clear document which states any conflict of interest 

Lawrence Olawale-Roberts:Good points to note Marika 

Lawrence Olawale-Roberts:@Rafik is the suggested feature does not come as a standard it could be customised by the provider 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:+1 rafik 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:that is true 

Marika Konings:@Rafik - we have noticed the same issue. Maybe we could add a clarification to the SOI, basically explain for each field what info is expected to be filled out so that it is also clear that affiliation refers to membership, not whether you feel affiliated with a certain perspective. 

rafik:+1 

Marika Konings:it may not require a change to the operating procedures it is just providing additional info to help people fill out the form 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:+1 too 

Lawrence Olawale-Roberts:I need a daily out please 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:with regards to gdpr we need to ensure that information presented follow the questions are well stated to release of information 

Nathalie Peregrine:@Lawrence, the oeprator is trying to reach you on both numbers provided. 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:perhaps a note requesting whether the legitimate person is willing to release their information 

rafik:@Julie is it possible to get update from Chris Gift about the new platform? he made presentation to diveristy subgroup a while ago 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:should --- make more sense....culturallly it makes it clearer to others 

Marika Konings:staff can only check for completeness, not for accuracy... 

Nathalie Peregrine:Staff insist heavily on SOI's completeness, but we do not necessarily bar members without SOI from attending calls. 

Nathalie Peregrine:Only observers are barred and removed from calls. 

Marika Konings:I'm sorry, but I have to drop here. Bye all. 

Wolf-Ulrich Knoben:Bye Marika 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:Well we had an issue at last ICANN meeting.....someone from the GAC changed SOI to reflect NCUC when that person was still and still continue to be Government 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:perhaps we could apply something that says if there are changes in their SOI they should update it 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:i support the idea as well 

Krishna Seeburn - Kris:thanks bye
