Recommendations: Alignment with Strategic Plan
by Weissinger, Laurin Jan. 6, 2020

Jan. 6, 2020

Dear all, I added (in suggest mode) what I believe / consider to be the links to the strategic objectives in all cases where we had not done so. If you need a refresher, see my comment at the top of the recommendation table or scroll down. In two cases, I consider the link somewhat strenuous (as commented) and would like to hear your view either via email or on call this week. All the best Laurin 1. Strengthen the security of the Domain Name System and the DNS Root Server System. 1.1 Strengthen DNS coordination in partnership with DNS stakeholders to improve the shared responsibility for upholding the security and stability of the DNS. 1.2 Strengthen DNS root server operations governance in coordination with the DNS root server operators. 1.3 Understand and mitigate security threats to the DNS through greater engagement with DNS hardware, software, and service vendors. 1.4 Increase the robustness of the DNS root zone key signing and distribution services and processes to meet growing security needs. 2. Strategic Objective: Improve the effectiveness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model of governance. 2.1. Address the increasing needs of inclusivity, accountability and transparency, while at the same time ensuring that work gets done and policies are developed in an effective and timely manner 2.2 Strengthen ICANN’s multistakeholder decision-making process. 2.3 Strengthen the inclusivity and openness of ICANN’s multistakeholder model by improving and sustaining diverse representation and active, effective participation. 3.

Strategic Objective: Address geopolitical issues impacting ICANN’s mission to ensure a single, globally interoperable Internet. 4.1 Further develop early warning systems, such as ICANN org’s Legislative/Regulatory Development Reports, to identify and address global needs and threats, demonstrating ICANN’s trustworthiness in resolving the challenges within its remit in a timely manner. 4.2 Continue to build alliances in the Internet ecosystem and beyond to raise awareness, and equip stakeholders from around the world to become active participants in ICANN’s policy making. 5. Strategic Objective: Ensure ICANN’s long-term financial sustainability. 5.1 Enhance ICANN’s understanding of the domain name marketplace. 5.2 Strengthen cost management and financial accountability mechanisms. 5.3 Enhance ICANN’s financial planning model to better balance economic changes and stakeholders’ needs.

Question: SSR1 Recommendation 11
by Heather Flanagan Dec. 31, 2019

Dec. 31, 2019

Hello all, I’m using the time over the break to dive into some serious editing of the SSR1 Recommendations, and have a question: Is this still true? "the DAAR system has been proposed to report on abuse trends across gTLDs and a number of abuse types (unfortunately, as of this writing, it still has not been published).” (See page 68 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PAG8kh4Jg_6BNMbkqebVpyqebw5mPjXr3ie-4rg… <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PAG8kh4Jg_6BNMbkqebVpyqebw5mPjXr3ie-4rg…>) I’m not sure if anything that’s been published on the DAAR website (https://www.icann.org/octo-ssr/daar <https://www.icann.org/octo-ssr/daar>) applies to this recommendation, given the timing. Thanks! Heather

Both looked good to me and I have no further comments and / or additions. I have also added a new description for Workstream 2: Key Stability Issues within ICANN on page 29. The only outstanding issue are the strategic objectives in the BCM context. I wonder if we need more than the new description of the objectives on page 29 or only a reference to them? What do you think? Best regards and wishing you all a Happy New Year! - Boban.

A question regarding SSR1 Recommendation 17
by Heather Flanagan Dec. 24, 2019

Dec. 24, 2019

Hola a todos, and Happy New Year! SSR1 Recommendation 17 (page 75 of https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PAG8kh4Jg_6BNMbkqebVpyqebw5mPjXr3ie-4rg… <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PAG8kh4Jg_6BNMbkqebVpyqebw5mPjXr3ie-4rg…>) has in its rationale a mention of “the most recent Annual Report”. Can someone tell me what year that refers to? Each annual report I’ve looked at (2015-2018) has sixteen rather than eighteen initiatives (but I may not be looking at the correct thing in the reports). Thanks! Heather
