Fadi has had or is planning a few individual conversations with community groups, but we thought some broader community engagement opportunities with ICANN senior executives would also be helpful so that Fadi, Tarek and Theresa could: § Provide background and context of the recent I-Star discussions leading to the Montevideo statement; § Explain the Board/Staff partnership in this effort; § Explain what has been done to date and share perceptions of the recent IGF-Bali meeting; and § Highlight next steps/prep plans for Brazil next April. As a result, we have arranged for two community webinars scheduled for next Friday, 8 November at 1200 UTC and 1900 UTC so that the team can share its thoughts and field community questions and comments. We are scheduling two separate sessions to cover the global geographic spread of the community and hope that you will be able to share information about the opportunity with your communities. Each session will be an hour long and any questions or comments that the team can’t get to on the calls will be saved for further discussion in Buenos Aires.

Dear Julia, David, To give my greetings, as well as to the members of the Global Internet Community, i have a comment and one question in relation to Internet governance, ICANN governance and the need strategic of participation of for multiple government stakeholders in the country ccTLDs as a basis for the exercise of governance Internet. Most dictionaries describe the term governance as: government, control , law , politics, authority , direction, rule, guide, power , dominance , policies , jurisdiction, influence , government , political practice, other . The Structure and Delegation FRC1591 Names and Domain Name System (J. Postel , March 94 ) , explains the purposes of administration of the ccTLD manager's responsibility "designated" and the duty to serve the community . It is common knowledge that currently ccTLDs are currently governed by nonprofit organizations or private companies and possibly by individual users. All commercial purposes , therefore, used commercial rates and with few purposes to serve to the community, currently their design business and development plans do not include the interests of the community, the multiple government actors, such as ICANN promotes today . My comment and question are : 1. It is essential and coherent strategic development of Internet Governance and the promotion of multi-stakeholder governance, using all the tools that a government management of multiple stakeholders can develop in the administration of the ccTLD country. This is a very important point in the schedule of the board in a next future. 2. What may do the ICANN senior management regarding the strategic importance of promoting Internet Governance , local and global , from this perspective?. I´m grateful for your attention. Atte.

ccTLDs are run by a real variety of organisations, from governments to for profit, to not for profit, to individuals. Some might include the interests of the community and some might not.
My comment and question are :
1. It is essential and coherent strategic development of Internet Governance and the promotion of multi-stakeholder governance, using all the tools that a government management of multiple stakeholders can develop in the administration of the ccTLD country. This is a very important point in the schedule of the board in a next future.
ccTLDs are actually fully sovereign. ICANN has no possibility to impose any kind of rules over ccTLD operators, especially when it comes to the type of organisation that is running the ccTLD. So whilst I might agree with you personally in principle, I'm sorry but the way ICANN is set-up, it cannot tell ccTLDs what to do. In fact, we have to also admit that some ccTLDs have existed before ICANN. And also that some ccTLDs are not ccNSO members, hence they really have nothing to do with ICANN.
2. What may do the ICANN senior management regarding the strategic importance of promoting Internet Governance , local and global , from this perspective?.
With regards to ccTLDs: there is nothing ICANN senior management can do. I believe it is up to the Country Code operators, the ccTLD operators, to willingly share best practice scenarios and to also in some cases, convince their respective governments, of the importance of using multi-stakeholder principles of governance in the administration of the ccTLD so as for it to serve the Public Interest. They can share information among each other, but I don't think that any ccTLD operator will let someone else tell them what to do. I hope this helps. Kind regards, Olivier
