[image: image.png] Evan Leibovitch will introduce the concept of domaining and offer perspectives on the practices' effects on registrants, business innovation, ICANN and the domain name system. He warns participants that this presentation's approach to domaining will be akin to a vegan's description of an abattoir; registrants will be offered advice on how to circumvent domainers in getting a useful domain name.

WHAT IS THIS ABOUT? In June 2014, the GNSO Council established a Discussion Group that was intended to evaluate the experiences of the 2012 round gTLD Program and to identify possible areas for future GNSO policy development. The Discussion Group’s <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…> deliverables <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…> served as the basis for the GNSO Council request for a Preliminary Issue Report in June of 2015. Following the publication of the <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…>Final Issue Report <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…>, the GNSO Council adopted the <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…> charter <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…> for the PDP Working Group, which began its work in February 2016. The Working Group first concentrated on a set of overarching issues. It then conducted initial deliberations on additional topics in its charter using five separate Work Tracks: Work Track 1 - Overall Process/Support/Outreach, Work Track 2 - Legal/Regulatory, Work Track 3: String Contention/Objections & Disputes, Work Track 4: Internationalized Domain Names/Technical & Operations, Work Track 5: Geographic Names at the Top Level. Following publication of the Working Group’s Initial Report <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…>, Supplemental Initial Report <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…>, and the Final Report produced by Work Track 5 <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…>, the Working Group reviewed public comments received on the Initial Report and Supplemental Initial Report, refined its outputs and published a draft Final Report <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U-BQ5mcgXWrMRrH2an1xRd78K7B3SIHG9tfmRTc3aEdl…> for public comment. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? The Discussion Group identified a number of subjects that may require further analysis and possible formulation of policy language. There are existing policy recommendations adopted by the GNSO Council and ICANN Board, which will remain in place unless the PDP WG determines that changes are needed.

To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device.

Fwd: [ALAC] Fwd: ICANN News Alert -- Call for Expressions of Interest: Chair of the Intergovernmental Organization (IGO) Work Track
by Eduardo Diaz Oct. 27, 2020

Oct. 27, 2020

FYI -ed - [image: ICANN Announcement Alerts] *Call for Expressions of Interest: Chair of the Intergovernmental Organization (IGO) Work Track <https://newsalerts.icann.org/U2Mg00E0PR0Cdc022N000a8>* 26 October 2020 LOS ANGELES – 26 October 2020 – The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) is seeking expressions of interest for a chair of the Intergovernmental Organization (IGO) Work Track, a subteam within an ongoing Policy Development Process (PDP) to review all trademark-related rights protection mechanisms at the second level of the domain name system. The GNSO Council intends to appoint a single, neutral chair to the IGO Work Track. The deadline to submit Expressions of Interest is 30 November 2020 at 23:59 UTC. Candidates interested in serving in this role should review the Expressions of Interest document <https://newsalerts.icann.org/L202ER0020bc0CN8g0P0d0N> before submission. The document includes the following information: - Description of the role - Required or highly preferred skills - Required or highly preferred experience - Time commitment - Selection process and criteria Expressions of Interest should be submitted to gnso-secs(a)icann.org <https://newsalerts.icann.org/wR8EN0dCP0000g2O0022c0c>. By submitting your personal data, you agree that your personal data will be processed in accordance with the ICANN Privacy Policy <https://newsalerts.icann.org/y2cC82gN0d0PERd00P00020>, and you agree to abide by the electronic Terms of Service <https://newsalerts.icann.org/O0c0g02E0200NCPe0Q0d28R>. Background on the Intergovernmental Organization (IGO) Work Track IGOs may face certain challenges when using existing second-level domain name dispute resolution processes to protect their acronyms from misuse (i.e. curative rights). After much consideration, a GNSO International Governmental Organization (IGO) – International Non-governmental Organization (INGO) PDP Working Group has recommended that, in the admittedly rare case where the below conditions are met, the original Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) or Uniform Rapid Suspension (URS) panel decision is to be set aside: 1. An IGO has prevailed in a UDRP or URS proceeding. 2. The losing registrant files suit in a court of competent jurisdiction. 3. The IGO successfully claims immunity from the jurisdiction of that court. Assuming an IGO is able to avail itself of the UDRP process, the effect of this recommendation is that the parties to the dispute will be placed in the original situation as if the UDRP or URS proceeding had never been commenced. During the GNSO Council's deliberations over the final PDP recommendations, concerns were expressed as to whether this particular recommendation will: - Require a substantive modification to the UDRP and URS (notwithstanding that these two dispute resolution procedures are currently under consideration in the Review of All Rights Protection Mechanisms PDP). - Result in a potential reduction of the existing level of curative protections currently available to IGOs (notwithstanding the fact that the Access to Curative Rights PDP had been chartered to determine "whether to amend the UDRP and URS to allow access to and use of these mechanisms by IGOs and INGOs …or whether a separate, narrowly-tailored dispute resolution procedure at the second level modeled on the UDRP and URS that takes into account the particular needs and specific circumstances of IGOs and INGOs should be developed"). Consequently, the GNSO Council did not approve this particular recommendation and tasked the IGO Work Track to develop an appropriate policy solution. This solution should be consistent with the other recommendations in the PDP Final Report <https://newsalerts.icann.org/n0Cg0fR022NP0ER08200dc0> and: - Account for the possibility that an IGO may enjoy jurisdictional immunity in certain circumstances. - Leave intact the right and ability of registrants to file judicial proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction whether following a UDRP/URS case or otherwise. - Recognize that the existence and scope of IGO jurisdictional immunity in any particular situation is a legal issue to be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (see https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20190418-03 <https://newsalerts.icann.org/NR00gC2d0002gcE0SN0082P>).

Table of Contents Information Sharing - NEW: Ramanou Biaou Honored with 2020 Dr. Tarek Kamel Award for Capacity Building - NEW: ICANN69 GAC Communiqué Now Available - NEW: ICANN org Responds to the European Data Protection Board’s Public Consultation on the Board’s Guidelines on the Concepts of Controller and Processor - REMINDER: Information Transparency Initiative Update: New Content Available on Preview for Your Feedback - REMINDER: Nominations for NextGen Selection Committee and Mentor Positions through 15 November Public Comment - Proposed Amendment 1 to the .JOBS Registry Agreement - Recommendations for Early Warning for Root Zone Scaling - DRAFT PTI and IANA FY22 Operating Plan and Budgets - Preliminary Issue Report on a Policy Development Process to Review the Transfer Policy - IANA Naming Function Review (IFR) Initial Report Information Sharing NEW: Ramanou Biaou Honored with 2020 Dr. Tarek Kamel Award for Capacity Building Last week, ICANN org announced <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001XwkZSMKGBDCQ5jLElccofyFZTi02XvJ_c5fVGUyPwJCH…> the first recipient of the 2020 Dr. Tarek Kamel Award for Capacity Building is Ramanou Biaou. The ICANN Board recognizes Biaou's commitment to local and regional capacity-building programs in his home country of Benin as well as across Africa. He has worked to improve the technical skills of women in Africa and encouraged their participation in endeavors related to the Internet and Domain Name System (DNS). Through his efforts, the diversity and number of new ICANN community members increased. NEW: ICANN69 GAC Communiqué Now Available The GAC announced <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001XwkZSMKGBDCQ5jLElccofyFZTi02XvJ_c5fVGUyPwJCH…> that their ICANN69 Communiqué is now available. The GAC provides advice to the ICANN Board on policy matters where there may be an interaction between ICANN’s policies and various laws, international agreements, and public policy objectives. NEW: ICANN org Responds to the European Data Protection Board’s Public Consultation on the Board’s Guidelines on the Concepts of Controller and Processor ICANN recently announced <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001XwkZSMKGBDCQ5jLElccofyFZTi02XvJ_c5fVGUyPwJCH…> that it has responded to the European Data Protection Board's (EDPB) public consultation on its Guidelines 07/2020 on the concepts of controller and processor in the GDPR <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001XwkZSMKGBDCQ5jLElccofyFZTi02XvJ_c5fVGUyPwJCH…>. The EDPB is an independent European body whose purpose is to ensure consistent application of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and to promote cooperation among the European Union data protection authorities. The issue of controllership has been critical throughout the work of the Expedited Policy Development Process on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data (EPDP) and remains important for the implementation of a System for Standardized Access/Disclosure as recommended by the EPDP Phase 2 Team. In ICANN org's response to the public consultation, which closed today, it was noted that while the guidelines are a helpful step, ICANN org believes that further clarity would be beneficial in three areas: Precise attribution of "control" to particular stages in the processing under a micro-level analytic framework. When and how is "control" inferred from a contract, absent a party's actual involvement in processing contemplated under any such agreement. The newly introduced concept of "converging decisions." The full response submitted by ICANN org is available here <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001XwkZSMKGBDCQ5jLElccofyFZTi02XvJ_c5fVGUyPwJCH…> . All contributions to the Public Comment proceeding will be available on the EDPB website.
