Questions From SSR2 Coming Soon
by Russ Housley Feb. 5, 2019

Feb. 5, 2019

David: SSR2 will be sending two batches of questions. The first should arrive in the next few days, and the second should arrive in a week. I am writing to ask for prompt answers. As you know, SSR2 has not gone smoothly, but the whole SSR2 Review Team is striving to produce a quality report in a timely manner. To do that, we need your help. In the pat, the bulk of our questions have been answered by OCTO, so I am wring to you. We recognize that some of the questions may require coordination with other parts of ICANN Org. In the past, some of our questions have taken many months to receive responses. Worse, in some cases, it has taken months to be told that the question was not understood. Delay like this will put the SSR2 schedule in jeopardy. If you look at the SSR2 Work Plan, you will see that we have a very tight schedule. For the team to meet the schedule, I ask the following: 1) If clarifications are needed to understand a question, please get back to the team in a few days after receiving the question. 2) Most of the questions can be answered with a pointer to a document or web page. For these questions, please respond to the team in one week. 3) A small number of the questions will require gathering information. For these questions, please respond to the team in two weeks. The SSR2 Review Team understands that you and your staff are busy, but we cannot produce a quality report on schedule without your assistance in gathering this information. Thanks in advance, Russ

DNS Privacy
by Russ Housley Jan. 30, 2019

Jan. 30, 2019

Since we talked about DNS privacy this past weekend, I thought I would share this paper: > http://sci-hub.tw/10.1002/poi3.195 Of course, the vast majority of domain names are registered with organizations, not individuals. Also, it does not address that WHOIS is used to protect people, especially in addressing phishing attacks. Russ

SSR2 Review Team vacancy
by Jennifer Bryce Jan. 28, 2019

Jan. 28, 2019

Message sent on behalf of Russ Housley, Chair, SSR2 Review Team Dear GAC leadership, I’m writing on behalf of the SSR2 Review Team<https://community.icann.org/x/AE6AAw> regarding GAC-nominated member Mohamad Amin Hasbini’s resignation. Please note the SO/AC Chairs and the SSR2 Review Team are copied on this email for their information. Mr. Hasbini announced his resignation<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__mm.icann.org_pipermail…> from the SSR2 Review Team on 16 January 2019. Operating Standards<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/reviews-standards-2018-12-17-en> required by the ICANN Bylaws for reviews have not been completed and adopted by the Board, so we don’t have a formal process to follow regarding resignations from the SSR2 Review. Ultimately, since Mr. Hasbini is a GAC appointment, it is our understanding that the decision on whether or not to replace him rests with the GAC. The SSR2 Review Team would, of course, welcome any new members appointed by the community. The SSR2 currently is working on<https://community.icann.org/display/SSR/Work+Plan?preview=/64075835/1021394…> a draft report for public comment. The SSR2 Review Team leadership requests that SOs/ACs that are considering appointing new members at this juncture in the team’s work ensure that appointees have the knowledge and time to contribute to the SSR2 Review Team’s work in progress. I suspect that anyone joining the team today would have need to be very diligent to catch up with the rest of the team. Please let me know if I can provide more information, or if you would like to discuss. Kind regards, Russ Housley Chair, SSR2 Review Team -- Jennifer Bryce Senior Reviews Coordinator Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Email: jennifer.bryce(a)icann.org Skype: jennifer.bryce.icann www.icann.org
