To ISPCP members FYI Please respond directly to the invitation if you plan to join the webinar From: owner-liaison6c(a)gnso.icann.org [mailto:owner-liaison6c@gnso.icann.org] On Behalf Of Glen de Saint Géry Sent: 10 December 2013 17:01 To: liaison6c Subject: [liaison6c] Reminder: ICANN WHOIS MISUSE STUDY FINDINGS WEBINAR INVITATION ICANN WHOIS MISUSE STUDY FINDINGS WEBINAR INVITATION  In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat ( <mailto:gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org> gnso.secretariat(a)gnso.icann.org) to receive the call details. You are invited to participate in a webinar about the recently released Whois Misuse Study, conducted for ICANN by Carnegie Mellon University’s Cylab. This study has now been published for public comment, and community feedback is being invited in order to assist ICANN with evaluating potential changes to Whois policy. The study was commissioned by the GNSO to obtain objective and quantifiable information about the extent, nature, and impact of WHOIS public data misuse – that is, harmful actions taken using contact information obtained from WHOIS – through (1) analyzing reported misuse incidents and (2) conducting experiments to measure misuse and the effectiveness of anti-harvesting measures. CMU was engaged to perform the study using two complementary approaches: (1) a descriptive study to document and analyze WHOIS misuse incidents that have already occurred and (2) an experimental study to stimulate and record misuse in order to measure more reliably the impact of making WHOIS data public and WHOIS query filters applied to deter data harvesting. CMU’s chief researchers on the study, Dr. Nicolas Christin and Mr. Nektarios Leontiadis, and ICANN staff will provide a briefing on Tuesday 17 December at 12.00 UTC and 19.00 UTC, summarizing their findings and conclusions based on the studies they performed and data they analyzed. Amongst other topics, Dr. Christin and Mr. Nektarios will discuss: · CMU’s methodology for the study and the hypothesis tested; · The different project activities that were undertaken for the study; · CMU’s analysis of the data reported and sampled for the study; and · CMU’s conclusions based on the results of its analysis. The two sessions are duplicates, scheduled to accommodate different time zones. Each session, scheduled to run for sixty (60) minutes, will be conducted in English only. The meeting will be run in Adobe Connect with a slide presentation along with a dial-in conference bridge for audio. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions at the end of each session. During the course of the webinar, questions may also be submitted using the chat function of Adobe Connect. If you are not able to participate in either of the live sessions, the recording of the session will be made available shortly after the meeting. The policy staff is always available to answer any questions that you email to <mailto:policy-staff@icann.org> policy-staff(a)icann.org. In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat ( <mailto:gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org> gnso.secretariat(a)gnso.icann.org) to receive the call details. Please indicate which call you would like to join on Tuesday 17 December - at 12.00 UTC or at 19.00 UTC (to convert those times into your local time, see: <http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedform.html> http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedform.html) We will send you an e-mail reminder before the event with log-in and dial-in details. Please DO NOT RSVP to any other ICANN staff member’s e-mail address.

FW: GNSO Web-Site Survey
by Tony Holmes Dec. 6, 2013

Dec. 6, 2013

FYI and action From: Glen de Saint Géry [mailto:Glen@icann.org] Sent: 04 December 2013 18:32 To: tony holmes (tonyarholmes(a)btinternet.com) Mike O'Connor Subject: GNSO Web-Site Survey Please distribute this to all your members. Thank you very much. Glen GNSO Web-Site Survey http://gnso.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-04dec13-en.htm 4 December 2013 In May of 2012, the GNSO Policy Team, in partnership with ICANN's Web Team, launched a new theme and information structure for the GNSO website. The primary goal of that initiative was to improve the information architecture of the web site and to better align the documentation of GNSO Council activities with other community operations on the site. Key new features included: * More clarity regarding the activities of the GNSO community, the GNSO Council and its Working Groups * Quick access to active projects and an archive of past GNSO Council efforts * Better descriptions of the current GNSO organizational structures including archives of its various structures from the formative years of the GNSO as it transitioned from the DNSO (note, documentation of past efforts is still under way) * Web site integration with myICANN for pushing (RSS) change notifications So far, the site has experienced nearly 26,000 visits (130/day on avg.) with just over 15,000 being unique visitors. On average, users tend to visit 2.5 pages -- for an average duration of nearly three minutes. Approximately 30% of the traffic is from outside the United States. While we've been collecting a good bit of data about how often the improved site is visited (e.g., Google analytics, etc.), we now want to gather direct community feedback from you on how effective the site is proving to be, so that we can determine what further improvements are desirable and achievable. We've developed the following survey to provide a structured method to collect your input. The survey is designed to take no longer than ten minutes to complete even if you choose to expand your responses with additional text which we hope you'll do!. After the survey closes in December, we will collate and analyze the results and publish a report for GNSO leadership review. Depending on the feedback collected, that report may include recommendations for future enhancement. If you are interested in being contacted by us for further discussion and/or feedback regarding your survey responses, please email the GNSO Policy Team at <mailto:policy-staff@icann.org> policy-staff(a)icann.org. Please follow this link for the survey: <https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/3WBSFFK> https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/3WBSFFK The Survey closes on 10 January 2014 @ 23:59 UTC. Thanks very much for taking the time to give your feedback. We look forward to reading your views and learning from your experiences with the site. Best regards, The GNSO Policy Team Glen de Saint Géry GNSO Secretariat gnso.secretariat(a)gnso.icann.org http://gnso.icann.org

FYI <https://gallery.mailchimp.com/1a990feb5c/images/logo_icann_ideascale_3_.png > Designing a 21st Century ICANN Hello! The <http://www.icann.org/en/about/planning/strategic-engagement/multistakeholde r-innovation> ICANN Strategy Panel on Multistakeholder Innovation (the MSI Panel) and <http://thegovlab.org/> The Governance Lab @ NYU (The GovLab) recently launched an online engagement effort aimed at helping to design a 21st century Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) - the public interest organization responsible for coordinating the Internet's Domain Name System (DNS). We are writing to request your participation in this important initiative and to help us spread the word! The MSI Panel has been charged with: . Proposing new models for international engagement, consensus-driven policymaking and institutional structures to support such enhanced functions; and . Designing processes, tools and platforms that enable the global ICANN community to engage in these new forms of participatory decision-making. The Panel is a small group of seven with no monopoly on the best ideas for what ICANN should or should not do to coordinate the DNS in the public interest. All suggestions to make ICANN more effective and more democratic - whether constitutional, structural, legal, procedural or technological - will be welcome. While we cannot decide for ICANN, the aim of the MSI Panel is to use its authority to push for real change. Thus, we want ideas that are concrete and specific for innovative processes, structures, platforms, and techniques to design a 21st century ICANN. To gather and organize your input - we're launching this campaign in three stages: Stage 1: Idea Generation - Starting November 19th and running for six weeks via an ideation platform, Ideascale. You can access our <http://bit.ly/1dS9sLp> MSI Panel community page here. On the page, you can submit any and all concrete ideas you have. You can rate and rank others' for importance and practicality. November 19 - December 31. Stage 2: Proposal Development - Submissions will be grouped into general proposals and opened to discussion using a blog with line-by-line annotation features. This phase will be designed to take ideas closer to implementation. January 14 - January 21. Stage 3: Collaborative Drafting - Using a wiki, we will invite collaborative drafting on specific proposals that the Panel will submit to the ICANN CEO, Board and community. January 28 - February 11. To help us spread the word, we ask you to do any of the following: . Submit ideas and encourage members of your network/community to contribute to the Ideascale community site by providing them with the link: <http://thegovlab.ideascale.com/> http://thegovlab.ideascale.com/. . Broadcast our "Call To Action," for this initiative, which is online <http://bit.ly/HWNxrW> here, as widely as possible within your networks. Feel free to link to this post or repost on your website edited to fit your needs. . Share this information within your community and network via mailing lists and listservs. . Use social media platforms such as Facebook or Twitter to spread the word about the campaign. Don't forget to use the hashtag #WeCANN. . To inspire participation and learn how to contribute, watch and share a <http://bit.ly/185t28Q> video The GovLab has made for the launch of this distributed brainstorm. . Host your own brainstorming forum and share ideas generated with the MSI Panel on our Ideascale community page.
