Notes and Action Items | SCCI Meeting | Wednesday, 21 May 2025
by Saewon Lee May 22, 2025

May 22, 2025

Dear All, Please see the following action items and high-level notes from SCCI Meeting #8<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYBmDQ> on 21 May 2025. Kind regards, Saewon Notes, Key Outcomes, and Action Items from Meeting #8<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYBmDQ> – Wednesday, 21 May at 12:00 UTC [KEY OUTCOMES] 1. There will be a pause in SCCI meetings after today while Support Staff draft the implementation report for Policy and Implementation (P&I). 2. Agreement to revise the current comparison diagram among processes (PDP, EPDP, GGP, GIP) presented in slide 9: To highlight in the diagram, GGP “implementation” and GIP “Input”, where appropriate; maybe in the left to make a distinction to those processes as well. 3. Agreement to add the charter requirement to the GNSO Operating Procedures rather than “requiring a charter” to initiate the process itself; amending Operating Procedures only and NOT the Initiation Request, thus NO amendments to ICANN Bylaws necessary. 4. Agreement that no additional direct community involvement seems necessary given that a GGP is supported by the community and well-represented. 5. Agreement to maintain GIP and make Councilors aware that it could potentially be a mechanism to use for Org Reviews. 6. SCCI’s review of and deliberations on P&I Policy Status Report (PSR) COMPLETED. [ACTION ITEMS] * GNSO Support Staff to draft the Implementation Report for P&I following SCCI’s deliberations. [NOTES] * Retrieve slides from here: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYBmDQ * See background documents for P&I PSR discussions here: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/yDZbBg 1. Welcome and SOIs 2. Recap of Meeting #7 * Outlined key agreements from Meeting #7 in slide 4. 1. Continue Policy & Implementation Policy Status Report Review * Refer to these documents: * Policy Status Report on the Policy & Implementation Recommendations [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> * Presentation to the GNSO Council: PSR on P&I [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> * PSR Analysis on GGP i. Agreement Thus Far * Presented an updated comparison diagram through slide 9. * Outcome: Agreement to highlight in the diagram, GGP “implementation” and GIP “Input”, where appropriate; maybe in the left to make a distinction to those processes as well. * Reclarification on charter requirement for the GGP: Agreement is to add the charter requirement to the GNSO Operating Procedures rather than “requiring a charter” to initiate the process itself; amending Operating Procedures only and NOT the Initiation Request, thus NO amendments to ICANN Bylaws necessary. ii. Analysis 3 * Outcome: Agreement that no additional direct community involvement seems necessary given that a GGP is supported by the community and well-represented. * PSR Analysis on GIP * GIP overview and PSR analysis on GIP presented on slides 16-17. * Question on the current GNSO Council approaches/mechanisms on dealing with certain issues (e.g., Org Reviews) and whether GIP is a necessary tool when it has not been used as long as it has existed. Some suggestions were raised that GIP would be very cumbersome for those informal processes where it would be an unwieldy tool for something that requires a letter being drafted or the formation of small teams. However, the agreement was to keep the “extra tool” that already is in place and well-thought-out; it may just be an awareness issue that could be resolved through the educational material/graphics. For example, GIP may be a useful tool for the future when dealing with the Org Reviews process and the GNSO could provide input through GIP. * Outcome: Agreement to maintain GIP and make Councilors aware that it could potentially be a mechanism to use for Org Reviews. * As for small teams, noted that the small team membership is limited to GNSO Councilors but that there was a Small team PLUS case for SubPro which expanded to GNSO and beyond, per the Small Team guidelines<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/small-tea…>. (Note: “Small team membership will generally consist of Council members, but the membership may be supplemented by the broader Community as warranted by the subject area. Care should be taken, however, that if membership extends beyond the GNSO Council that the assignment is not better suited under an existing process or procedure [e.g., a working group that would benefit from the formality of a charter]. *If known at the time of initiation, expectations related to membership should be included in the Assignment Form.”) The members discussed adding more information to the small team guidelines to be more flexible (expertise vs. broader involvement), but the general agreement was to follow the current guidelines. 1. Next Steps * Outcome: SCCI’s review of and deliberations on P&I PSR COMPLETED. * AI: GNSO Support Staff to draft the Implementation Report for P&I following SCCI’s deliberations. 1. AOB * HAPPY BIRTHDAY, our fearless leader, Manju!!! 😉

Notes and Action Items | GNSO Standing Committee on Continuous Improvement (SCCI) | 14 May 2025
by Saewon Lee May 14, 2025

May 14, 2025

Dear All, Please see the following action items and high-level notes from SCCI Meeting #7<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AQBmDQ> on 14 May 2025. Anne: Thank you for your kind input. Staff also agree with your assessment and hopefully, it has been captured within the notes. This item will be reiterated to the SCCI Members during next week’s meeting (Meeting #8). Kind regards, Saewon Notes, Key Outcomes, and Action Items from Meeting #7 – Wednesday, 14 May at 12:00 UTC [KEY OUTCOMES] 1. There will be NO meetings on 4 June (travel period) and 9 June (during ICANN Policy Forum as SCCI deliberations on P&I PSR review will most probably be complete by then). 2. Agreement to revise the current comparison chart/diagram among processes (PDP, EPDP, GGP, GIP) presented in slide 12: 1) To visualize a clear distinction between PDP/EPDP (policymaking) and GGP/GIP (non-policymaking); 2) To reword/revise steps within GIP – Public Comment to be non-mandatory, “Reports” to “GNSO Input”, and ““Implementation” to “Outcome”, “Input”, or “Correspondence/Response to the Board/Public Comment)” 3. A consideration to add GGP (its own/independent section) to the GNSO Liaison document<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/gnso-liai…>. [ACTION ITEMS] 1. GNSO Support Staff to recheck the guidelines within Bylaws/GNSO Operating Procedures to inform SCCI on what is feasible for GGP and how the process could move forward (i.e., Bylaws amendments, GNSO Operating Procedures amendments, relevant Public Comments needs). [Clarification on Bylaws amendments shared by Anne – to be reiterated during Meeting #8] 2. SCCI Members to continue reviewing the P&I PSR documents with the focus on GGP and GIP and the relevant discussion topics. The documents include Policy Status Report on the Policy & Implementation Recommendations [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> and the Presentation to the GNSO Council: PSR on P&I [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> [NOTES] * Retrieve slides from here: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AQBmDQ * See background documents for P&I PSR discussions here: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/yDZbBg 1. Welcome and SOIs * SOI Update from Hong-Fu (Tom); his SOI can be accessed here: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/B9JdBg 1. Recap of Meeting #6 · Outlined key agreements from Meeting #6 in slide 4. · When P&I PSR deliberations are done (hopefully by mid-end of May), there will be a pause in SCCI meetings while Support Staff draft the implementation report. · Outcome: There will be NO meetings on 4 June (travel period) and 9 June (during ICANN Policy Forum as SCCI deliberations on P&I PSR review will most probably be complete by then). 1. Continue Policy & Implementation Policy Status Report Review · Refer to these documents: Policy Status Report on the Policy & Implementation Recommendations [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> Presentation to the GNSO Council: PSR on P&I [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> * PSR Analysis on GGP: i. Agreement Thus Far * Outlined key agreements on GGP from Meeting #6 in slides 9-10. * Question on communication whether GNSO Guidelines should add GGP (its own/independent section) to the GNSO Liaison document<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/gnso-liai…>. Noted this suggestion which could be considered for later. · Presented a comparison table/diagram through slides 11-12. · Suggestions were raised to tweak the current diagram (Slide 12) for further clarification: To distinguish PDP/EPDP to GGP/GIP (policymaking vs. non-policy making); Maybe a bold line between the first two and the bottom two processes will help. Suggestions on GIP to reword certain steps – “Implementation” should be reworded to “input” or “Correspondence/Response to the Board/Public Comment)” and “Reports” to “GNSO Input”, and Public Comment maybe to a dotted line. Either way, this current slide/version is only to be presented to SCCI Members for now; may be updated when presenting to the GNSO Council and included within the SCCI Implementation Report. ii. Analysis 3 · Question was raised on the additional information issue when initiating request for GGP. Noted that for GGP, a charter could be additionally in place (as a standalone doc.) after the Initiation Request, where the Initiation Request could be a simple form and the charter a more comprehensive guidance. An additional question(s) to this was 1) the necessity for Public Comment in this process; and 2) Bylaws amendments. Noted that with the GNSO guidance manual (Operating Procedures) being managed by GNSO Council, this update may not need to go through the Bylaws amendments (stipulated in Annex A-2<https://www.icann.org/en/governance/bylaws#annexA2>); however, amendments to the GNSO Operating Procedures require a Public Comment process. There was a request from SCCI Members asking Support Staff to walk the SCCI members through Bylaws and the GNSO Guidance Manuals. · AI: GNSO Support Staff to recheck the guidelines within Bylaws/GNSO Operating Procedures to inform SCCI on what is feasible for GGP and how the process could move forward (i.e., Bylaws amendments, GNSO Operating Procedures amendments, relevant Public Comments needs). [Clarification on Bylaws amendments shared by Anne – to be reiterated during Meeting #8] 1. Next Steps * AI: SCCI Members to continue reviewing the P&I PSR documents with the focus on GGP and GIP and the relevant discussion topics. The documents include Policy Status Report on the Policy & Implementation Recommendations [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> and the Presentation to the GNSO Council: PSR on P&I [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/polic…> From: Anne ICANN via Gnso-scci <gnso-scci(a)icann.org> Reply-To: Anne ICANN <anneicanngnso(a)gmail.com> Date: Wednesday, May 14, 2025 at 11:30 AM To: Steve Chan <steve.chan(a)icann.org> Cc: "gnso-scci(a)icann.org" <gnso-scci(a)icann.org>, GNSO-Secs <gnso-secs(a)icann.org> Subject: [Gnso-scci] Re: Post Call | GNSO Standing Committee on Continuous Improvement (SCCI) | 14 May 2025 Steve and Manju We may be ok adding requirement for a Charter for the GGP without a ByLaws amendment. In Annex A-2 to the ByLaws, the requirements list is modified as "at a minimum" so it looks as though Council can add a Charter step in the process in our GNSO Operating Procedures but would not make the Charter a requirement for Initiation since that is codified in the ByLaws. The request to initiate a GGP must be accompanied by a GGP scoping document, which is expected to include at a minimum the following information: 1. Name of Council Member / SG / C 2.
