Follow-up on On-Demand Review pending points ..
by Manal Ismail April 15, 2026

April 15, 2026

Dear Subgroup Members .. As we still have some pending points and no scheduled calls for the subgroup, I thought to follow-up with you over email .. Here is a compilation of what I believe we still need to either confirm or discuss and agree: 1. Where do emerging technologies belong? (Tracy’s Point) .. I understand there was no objection to having them under “Emerging Topics” .. and I personally believe it’s implicit so I don’t think we need a separate bullet .. Thoughts? 2. In this sentence: “An emerging topic that is requested by the community, specifically one that does not involve policy considerations,” shall we propose to the CCG changing “policy considerations” to “policy development”, to make sure we’re not stepping into PDP territory and at the same time address Pat’s point that in discussing emerging topics policy considerations may need to be taken into account .. 3. There was a proposal by Anil on the CCG call to add “Board requested” under Emerging Topics, along with “Community Requested” and “ATR Requested”, any views on this proposal? 4. Any further input regarding “The number of on demand reviews per five-year cycle is limited to one” in light of the CCG discussions on whether to leave it as is or change it to reflect “one at a time” not necessarily throughout the five-year cycle? 5. I believe there are no objections, from the subgroup, on the thresholds proposed by Sohpie, 2 out of 7 SO/AC for a proposal to get discussed and 5 out of 7 to proceed. Appreciate your confirmations though we may still leave them in yellow for the CCG discussions. 6. Any objection to the addition of this bullet to the screening list “When the topic was last reviewed/assessed to ensure meaningful timing”? It was added after the subgroup call without discussion, so I thought to seek you explicit confirmation .. 7. The last pending issue is On-Demand Structural Reviews, which we will leave a placeholder for subject to the outcome of the CCG’s discussion tomorrow, Thurs. .. but please feel free to exchange views here if you wish .. Apologies for the long email .. Please let me know if I have overlooked, misinterpreted or have not been clear on any of the points .. Looking forward to your responses, here over email or in the google doc<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iFB25pBT2JcZyWxNtJpUNg3N3W9p2xyB/edit>, in order to work with Alice on a clean version of our report ..

Suggested what we heard - on demand subgroup
by Manal Ismail April 3, 2026

April 3, 2026

Dear On Demand Reviews Subgroup Members .. Thanks to Alice, here is a compiled list of suggested high level messages from our subgroup call: * Bucket E is designed to provide greater flexibility. Moving a topic into this bucket does not reduce its importance (i.e. Review of Reviews). * Scoping process being worked on in bucket A subgroup can be leveraged, as applicable, for the threshold process. * Balance between pushing the trigger and pulling out is needed. * Consider a list of examples to illustrate what bucket E could house (similar to examples in annex A of ICANN Bylaws). * Should build a safeguard to ensure this is not used as a way for groups dissatisfied with outcomes of a review or other mechanism to reopen an issue. Notion of high thresholds needs to be built into this. * Should answer a specific question so scope can be contained. * It is key to avoid overlaps. * Threshold process should have a resource check component. * Should distinguish whether recurrence of topics is possible and set clear context around that. * Should elaborate on the notion of “if a specific condition is met” with ability to cancel or defer. * Should build a safeguard that allows for an on-demand review that met the threshold to be stopped while running (e.g. through EC?) Please let us know if you have any comments .. You can find the call material on our Wiki page at https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CDOR/pages/987758675/Subg… [icann-community.atlassian.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/space…> Kind Regards --Manal

On Demand Reviews - Food for thought ..
by Manal Ismail April 1, 2026

April 1, 2026

Dear All .. Thank you for your interest and for volunteering to join the RoR CCG subgroup on On Demand Reviews .. As we have a tight timeframe, I thought to share with you my self-brainstorming on the 3 points we are requested to discuss: * Elaborate process by which to request on demand review * Elaborate process by which to convene on demand review * Define purpose I have extracted the On Demand information from the full Table, tried to insert the above points in red where I believe they belong, and to insert my initial self-brainstorming in blue .. The file is attached in .doc format if you would like to review offline, but also, thanks to Alice, can be accessed through the following link in google docs .. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gFJFt2MjAvFZMbTe1sd35cMTwka2hauT/edit This is meant only to trigger your thoughts in preparation for the call, so please feel free to share your views, in the google doc or over email, agreeing, disagreeing or finetuning .. Talk to you all tomorrow .. Kind Regards --Manal
