Motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty - "Operating Standards for ICANN Specific Reviews"
by Maritza Y. Aguero Minano Feb. 1, 2018

Feb. 1, 2018

Dear all, As reported in the monthly LACRALO January call, Alejandro Pisanty has presented the following petition: "ICANN has initiated a public comment on the Guidelines for Reviews on its activities: "Operating Standards for ICANN Specific Reviews": https://www.icann.org/public-comments/reviews-standards-2017-10-17-en MOTION: LACRALO must request the Board and the SO/AC leadership to review the procedures to integrate the "Review Teams". The result of said review should be the inclusion of RT members as a matter of law without requiring the approval of the SO/AC leadership as a whole. RATIONALE: the current system forms a closed system in which it is not possible to include independent opinieons. The process describes how to hire "independent experts" but this refers exclusively to consultants who will be selected in a similar way. The result of this closed cycle were immediate: the "SSRT2" revision or the second DNS security, stability and resiliency review has been put on hold for not achieving progress, which in my opinion is at least partly due to the closed constitution of the working team. STATEMENT OF INTEREST: I have a detailed knowledge of the process as I was Chair of the Initial SSRT (2010) and had submitted a request to participate in the second team as well, and I also have had discussions with the Board, SSAC and ALAC Chairs, as with other members who are part of those bodies. I would be grateful to the Secretariat for attaching a copy of this motion to the documents that will be reviewed this afternoon, as the matter structurally affects the decisions made by the CCWG which led the IANA transition". In this matter, we would like to start a consensus consultation to approve the motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty. This request for consensus will be made available to the Community for a period of three (03) days counted from Monday, January 29th, 2018 and will end on Thursday, February 1st, 2018, due to the time since the request was made and the importance of the subject. In the following link you will find the Motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=79432176 This call for consensus is based on paragraph 12.8 of the LACRALO RoP, which will be considered successful in the absence of significant opposition to it. Regards, Humberto Carrasco -LACRALO Chair Maritza Agüero – LACRALO Secretariat

Request for Proposal: Rights Protection Mechanisms Survey

These RPMs are services provided through ICANN's Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH) for trademark owners. RPMs refer to those policies and processes developed to provide workable mechanisms for trademark owners to either prevent or remedy certain unauthorized use of their trademarks in the domain name system. The Sunrise service provides priority access to rights holders to request domain names associated with their trademark(s). The Trademark Claims service provides notification to: (a) a potential domain name registrant attempting to register a domain name that matches a trademark record entered into the TMCH, and (b) a rights holder after registration of a matching domain name. As Sunrise and Trademark Claims RPMs have not been subject to policy review to date, no comprehensive, publicly available data currently exists that measures their effectiveness. By surveying the specific respondent groups identified by the ICANN community as most affected by Sunrise and Trademark Claims RPMs, ICANN aims to assist the community to evaluate the efficacy of these RPMs, as well as bolster ICANN's data collection efforts related to the RPMs. For a complete overview of the RFP including the timeline, please see here[icann.org]<https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefens…> [PDF, 86 KB]. Indications of interest are to be received by emailing RPMs.Survey-rfp(a)icann.org<mailto:RPMs.Survey-rfp@icann.org>. Proposals should be electronically submitted by 23:59 UTC on 09 March 2018 using ICANN's sourcing tool, access to which may be requested via the same email address above.

Bart, when decisions are made by the SO/AC leadership, incentives and negotiations structurally favor the known (people, organizations) that will not question the incumbent. Before the IANA transition the Board was able to introduce a degree of independence that for now has not been recovered. This is a paradoxal effect of the design that has as its main thrust the positive, desired goal of making ICANN robust against capture by specific inerests, notably governments.

This can be at the root of the ongoing difficulties the SSR2 review has encountered and thus it can be that the problem presented is not hypothetical but something that has already had consequences for ICANN. I do intend to present a comment in the link indicated, individually, but find the matter of enough importance for LACRALO to raise it collectively.

Aguero Minano CC: LACRALO discussion list Asunto: Re: [lac-discuss-en] Motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty - "Operating Standards for ICANN Specific Reviews" I think inclusiveness is always laudable and should be a consistently-applied principle in promoting multi-stakeholder solutions, especially in the governance matters related to the domain name system. Team member selection is the specific issue referenced by Alejandro's motion. And the consultations now underway for "Operating Standards for ICANN-specific Reviews" does have something to say about that. It suggests 'community selection' as the preferred model. So maybe what we need is a re-definition of 'community' within the ICANN context. A couple of questions. Would that presentation of the proposed Operating Standards for Review Teams address the issue raised by Alejandro? And if we think it is inadequate to task, would it not be more helpful if responses here give global visibility to the matter?

Community selection, as implemented, is creating a process that is too closed and can preclude an open enough composition of review teams. This can be at the root of the ongoing difficulties the SSR2 review has encountered and thus it can be that the problem presented is not hypothetical but something that has already had consequences for ICANN. I do intend to present a comment in the link indicated, individually, but find the matter of enough importance for LACRALO to raise it collectively.

Aguero Minano CC: LACRALO discussion list Asunto: Re: [lac-discuss-en] Motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty - "Operating Standards for ICANN Specific Reviews" I think inclusiveness is always laudable and should be a consistently-applied principle in promoting multi-stakeholder solutions, especially in the governance matters related to the domain name system. Team member selection is the specific issue referenced by Alejandro's motion. And the consultations now underway for "Operating Standards for ICANN-specific Reviews" does have something to say about that. It suggests 'community selection' as the preferred model. So maybe what we need is a re-definition of 'community' within the ICANN context. A couple of questions. Would that presentation of the proposed Operating Standards for Review Teams address the issue raised by Alejandro? And if we think it is inadequate to task, would it not be more helpful if responses here give global visibility to the matter?

Aguero Minano <myaguero(a)msn.com> wrote: Dear all, As reported in the monthly LACRALO January call, Alejandro Pisanty has presented the following petition: "ICANN has initiated a public comment on the Guidelines for Reviews on its activities: "Operating Standards for ICANN Specific Reviews": https://www.icann.org/public-comments/reviews-standards-2017-10-17-en MOTION: LACRALO must request the Board and the SO/AC leadership to review the procedures to integrate the "Review Teams". The result of said review should be the inclusion of RT members as a matter of law without requiring the approval of the SO/AC leadership as a whole. RATIONALE: the current system forms a closed system in which it is not possible to include independent opinieons. The process describes how to hire "independent experts" but this refers exclusively to consultants who will be selected in a similar way. The result of this closed cycle were immediate: the "SSRT2" revision or the second DNS security, stability and resiliency review has been put on hold for not achieving progress, which in my opinion is at least partly due to the closed constitution of the working team. STATEMENT OF INTEREST: I have a detailed knowledge of the process as I was Chair of the Initial SSRT (2010) and had submitted a request to participate in the second team as well, and I also have had discussions with the Board, SSAC and ALAC Chairs, as with other members who are part of those bodies. I would be grateful to the Secretariat for attaching a copy of this motion to the documents that will be reviewed this afternoon, as the matter structurally affects the decisions made by the CCWG which led the IANA transition". In this matter, we would like to start a consensus consultation to approve the motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty. This request for consensus will be made available to the Community for a period of three (03) days counted from Monday, January 29th, 2018 and will end on Thursday, February 1st, 2018, due to the time since the request was made and the importance of the subject. In the following link you will find the Motion presented by Alejandro Pisanty: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=79432176 This call for consensus is based on paragraph 12.8 of the LACRALO RoP, which will be considered successful in the absence of significant opposition to it.
