Hi Mary,

Unfortunately I will have to miss the second half of this RPM data subteam session Saturday afternoon/evening, and due to concurrent GAC sessions may have to step out for the first half too, so I am afraid I cannot present our report.

Subject: [Gnso-rpm-documents] QUESTION for the URS Documents Sub Team

Dear all,

You will have seen that J. Scott has resigned as one of our Working Group co-chairs. He has confirmed that he will not be joining the group at ICANN61 either in person or remotely. As such, staff would like to ask if another Sub Team member would like to volunteer to present the Sub Team’s report and suggestions to the full Working Group at ICANN61. We currently anticipate this to take place either during one of the Saturday afternoon (Puerto Rico time) back-to-back sessions or the Sunday evening session.

If appropriate, staff will be pleased to present on behalf of the Sub Team but we of course did not wish to presume. Please let us know if you wish to volunteer or prefer to delegate the task to staff.

Thanks and cheers

Mary & Berry

Subject: FOR REVIEW: Updated URS Documents Sub Team documentation

Dear all,

Please find attached updated versions of: (1) the Consolidated URS Discussion Document – where as of last week we had added a new column to the table in Section B to list all the suggested data sources agreed to by our Sub Team; (2) the list of questions to the URS Practitioners that will be identified by the Practitioners Sub Team; and (3) the list of questions to the URS Providers. As always, it is the Consolidated URS Discussion Document that will is the authoritative report since the others, as noted previously by staff, were created essentially to assist the other two Sub Teams as well as the practitioners and providers see more easily what topics and questions are to be directed at them. We have also posted all the attached updated documents to the Sub Team wiki space for convenient reference: https://community.icann.org/x/4xm8B

As agreed on our last call, in reporting back to the full Working Group at ICANN61, the following general points should be mentioned as well:

This URS Documents Sub Team is willing to take on the review of those specific types of cases noted in the consolidated document, as well as the review of the specified reports, websites and other documents also mentioned. The Sub Team will welcome any additional volunteers from the Working Group who wish to join them for these reviews.
To perform the case review, the Sub Team intends to develop and use a single template, to ensure uniformity and consistency in reporting.
The final list of suggested data sources, as well as the questions for the URS Practitioners and Providers, was developed over two Sub Team meetings during which the Sub Team went through the full table of topics in Section B of the Consolidated URS Discussion Document. For each topic, the Sub Team considered whether or not data – whether in the form of quantifiable data or qualitative/anecdotal feedback – was needed and, if so, the appropriate source(s) of that information. For a few topics, the Sub Team agreed that data collection was either not needed or appropriate (e.g. if the topic covered a policy rather than data-driven question).

Please review the attached documents to ensure that staff has accurately captured the Sub Team’s agreements and suggestions. We anticipate that reports from all three URS-related Sub Teams will be expected, along with further Working Group discussion of the suggestions made and possible next steps, at one or more of the sessions at ICANN61 starting on Saturday 10 March.

Thanks and cheers

Subject: Action items & notes from the URS Documents Sub Team call held earlier today

Dear Sub Team members,

Please find attached the notes from the call that just took place a few hours ago. As is our practice, the notes and recordings from the call have also been posted to the wiki page for this Sub Team: https://community.icann.org/x/4xm8B. Completion of discussion on the topic table in the Consolidated URS Discussion Document on the call today means there will NOT be a Sub Team call next week.

Here are the specific action items that were noted by staff on the call, in addition to the agreed actions with respect to the remaining topics that were discussed and that staff will be updating the topic table with:

GENERAL ACTION ITEMS:

• Create template for Case Review, to be used by all reviewers for the types of cases identified as requiring review (staff)

• For all questions to be directed to URS Practitioners, ask them to identify if they more commonly represent Complainants or Respondents (staff)

ACTION ITEMS FROM THE CALL:

• Staff to update the topic table in the Consolidated URS Discussion Document and Practitioner/Provider documents accordingly; and prepare a short summary of Sub Team methodology for reporting back to Working Group

• Sub Team members to indicate if they will be attending San Juan sessions (in person or remotely) via the poll sent out recently: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSclVS9__ofc94mstK-jXKk7ngv5PV9scbj-S8d3StdjBGbLyg/viewform

• Sub Team members to raise any additional issues or concerns they believe have not been adequately addressed on the mailing list. At the moment, where we are is only developing suggestions for discussion by the broader WG (i.e. not final recommendations)

Thanks and cheers
