Re: [GNSO-RPM-WG] [Ext] RE: Small Group for proposed amendments to TM-PDDRP
by Mary Wong Aug. 29, 2020

Aug. 29, 2020

Hello Paul, Phil and all – the Doodle polls were sent out yesterday but we realize that it went to Paul’s old email address. The GNSO Secretariat has just re-sent the polls to Paul at his updated email address. With regard to a public comment proceeding, here is the relevant language from the GNSO’s PDP Manual that was the basis for my previous guidance (noted by Phil): “In addition to any required public comment periods, the PDP Team may seek public comment on any item that the PDP Team notes it will benefit from further public input. The PDP Team does not have to seek approval from the GNSO Council to seek public comment on interim items. The minimum duration of a public comment period that does not concern the Initial Report is twenty (21) days.” I hope that is helpful. Cheers Mary From: "Corwin, Philip" <pcorwin(a)verisign.com> Date: Friday, August 28, 2020 at 11:09 To: "PMcGrady(a)taftlaw.com" <PMcGrady(a)taftlaw.com>, "gnso-rpm-wg(a)icann.org" <gnso-rpm-wg(a)icann.org> Cc: "brian.beckham(a)wipo.int" <brian.beckham(a)wipo.int>, "kathy(a)kathykleiman.com" <kathy(a)kathykleiman.com>, Mary Wong <mary.wong(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ext] RE: Small Group for proposed amendments to TM-PDDRP Paul, Thanks for staying on top of this. We do need that small group to bring something back to the full WG ASAP so that if the co-chairs decide it needs public comment we can hopefully close that 21-day period by the end of September and not have to submit another Project Change Request (ugh). Back in late July, Mary told us, “a PDP Working Group also has the ability to post interim items for public comment that it believes “will benefit from further public input” – this may be an option where there is a need to resolve specific, concrete items during deliberations on a Final Report. You will therefore not need to wait for there to be a full draft report to exercise this option (though staff advises that any such items should be consolidated and posted as a single public comment proceeding and not on a piecemeal basis).” My own view would be that we should seek public comment where we have a substantially new proposal that could have a material effect on the community or portions thereof.
