Jaime Wagner ISPs Representative CGI (Brazilian Internet Steering Commitee) j(a)bwagner.com.br jaime(a)cgi.br +55(51)8126-0916 -----Mensagem original----- De: owner-council(a)gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-council@gnso.icann.org] Em nome de Glen de Saint Géry Enviada em: quarta-feira, 3 de fevereiro de 2010 17:43 Para: Council GNSO Assunto: [council] Revised Draft GNSO Council minutes 28 January 2010 Dear Councillors, Attached please find the revised draft minutes of the GNSO Council meeting on 28 January 2010. Two changes have been made: - Mary Wong has been added to the list of attendees. - In Item 2: Decision regarding initiation of a PDP about vertical separation of Registries and Registrars The following paragraph has been added at the end of the voting at the request of Wolf-Ulrich Knoben: "During the discussion the ISPCP representative pointed out that a PDP at this time could jeopardize the implementation process for new gTLDs. Therefore the GNSO council should decline a PDP initiation at this time and should reevaluate whether to initiate a PDP on the topic of vertical integration after the launch of the initial round of New gTLD applications." Please let me know if you would like any other changes to be made. If no comments are received, these minutes will be published, as approved on the website on page: http://gnso.icann.org/calendar/index.html#jan on Wednesday, 10 February 2010.

Dear all, As you remember, on 11-Jan ICANN has posted a Call for Applicants for the Position of Volunteer Review Team Member with a deadline of 17-Feb. According to recent Mail exchange an extension may be granted by 1 week. A WT of the GNSO council is preparing the related application process with regards to potential GNSO applicants. I'd like to keep you informed about the council actions under discussion: * two separate endorsement processes: 1) one for the first review team that has a very short window; 2) one for the long term that could be applied for endorsementof volunteers for future RTs. * ASAP: - notify GNSO community members that the GNSO endorsement process is under development and encourage volunteers from the GNSO to submit applications via the ICANN process - request that SGs, Constituencies and other GNSO groups encourage volunteers from their communities to submit applications via the ICANN process. * 10 Feb: - finalize a draft one-time process for the first Accountability and Transparency RT and distribute to the Council with a motion for Council approval; - publicly post and distribute draft process GNSO groups; - send draft process to ICANN Staff and request that it be sent as soon as possible to all GNSO volunteers with a request that they complete the GNSOrequest for information and send it to the GNSO Secretariat by 17 Feb or as soon thereafter as possible but not later than 22 Feb * 18 Feb: - Council approval of the one-time process; - Council review & discussion of nominees identified to date; - form an evaluation team made up of one Councilor from each SG plus one NCA to rate the responses and report to the Council list not later than 23 Feb; Request that the AoC Review DT continue its work to develop a longer-term process for Council consideration in March or April. * 24 Feb: Hold a brief Council teleconference call to review volunteers and finalize the list of volunteers endorsed by the GNSO for the 2010 Accountability and Transparency RT. Proposed Details for GNSO Endorsements under discussion: The GNSO Council will endorse up to six volunteers for the 2010 AoC Accountability and Transparency RT as follows: Endorsement requires a simple majority vote of each house. Assuming there are volunteers who receive the necessary Council votes, at least one volunteer should be endorsed from each house. No more than two volunteers should come from the same geographical region. Volunteers must not all be of the same gender and at least 1/3 of each gender should be represented if possible. In cases where more than six total or more than one from a SG receive at least a simple majority from each house, ties will be broken as follows, in the order presented: 1) geographical and/or gender diversity; 2) the total votes received; 3) the Council non-voting NCA will be asked to break the tie. I suggest to discuss this at our next call on 10-Feb as well as potential ISPCP member volunteering. Have a nice weekend Wolf-Ulrich
