Sept. 1, 2017

Dear all, As already mentioned, I will be offline for the next three weeks due to summer holidays - YES, finally! I would be great if someone from the subgroup ICANN SSR could step-in as rapporteur during my absence. Proposed agenda (only the subgroup related items) for the plenary call next week: * Feedback and finalization on the work-plan * Feedback and finalization on the audit plan (base for F2F meeting in LA) * Apportionment of relating tasks (Trello board; minimum of two team-member per task with one responsible) * Feedback and finalization of the NDA * Process overview to access confidential information Thanks a lot. - Boban

Hi James, all, To follow-up on James’ point below, we wanted to let you know that we’re finalizing the process for review teams to access materials designated as confidential by respective SMEs. We’ll have the information available to share next week and we’ll be happy to walk through the process on a plenary call, if the Review Team would find this helpful. Best, Jennifer From: James Gannon <james(a)cyberinvasion.net> Date: Wednesday, August 30, 2017 at 10:09 AM To: Jennifer Bryce <jennifer.bryce(a)icann.org>, SSR2 <ssr2-review(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ext] RE: Action item 126 Hi Jennifer, In this case then the respective SMEs and departments must make every effort to classify and categorise in advance of our meeting all potential documents that the team may request during the face to face, this will extend to all usual materials that would be requested by an auditor under normal business circumstances which the departments should be very familiar with. Happy to provide additional details as required, -James From: ssr2-review-bounces(a)icann.org [mailto:ssr2-review-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Jennifer Bryce Sent: 30 August 2017 16:56 To: SSR2 <ssr2-review(a)icann.org> Subject: [Ssr2-review] Action item 126 Hi all, Regarding action item 126: Request ICANN Legal to be present at ICANN SSR face-to-face meeting, October 9-10 to rule on availability of documents. ICANN Legal cannot make on-the-spot decisions regarding access to individual documents, and will therefore not be present at the meeting to rule on availability of documents. The process that is followed for document requests is outlined in the revised Confidential Disclosure Framework and Non-Disclosure Agreement, circulated to the review team yesterday, 29 August. As mentioned in the email yesterday, if you elect not to sign the NDA, there may be instances where you will be restricted from accessing, using or discussing any confidential information provided by ICANN under the NDA. We are working to determine how to best manage requests in this instance and can provide more information when available. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Aug. 29, 2017

Dear Staff: A closer review of the SSR1 Final Implementation Report, recommendations 1- 20 has yielded questions and a need for more information. I’ve listed them in the attached, grouped by recommendation. This should provide a stronger foundation for the gap analysis. I also expect more requests will be forthcoming as 21-28 are reviewed, along with the presentation material. When you have a chance, please route this to appropriate staff, keep a list of SSR1-related requests on that Sub-group’s wiki page, and reference the requests in a nested table on the Team’s tracking list.

SSR 1 Implementation
by Denise Michel Aug. 25, 2017

Aug. 25, 2017

Dear Staff. I think my request around SSR1 implementation information was lost, so I’m restating here and ask that you add it to the Team’s task list. As Alain has said, we need to assemble and review information pertaining to SSR implementation before moving to the next step. That’s made difficult by the often incomplete and disparate information provided to document completion of each recommendation. We’ve seen that a great deal of work has been done to implement many Recommendations, but it’s hard to get our hands/heads around that with the current state of information. Here’s the request: 1. Fix the broken links in the Final Implementation Report and ensure that relevant references have links (if it’s noted in the report as relevant to implementation, please make sure there’s a link to information about it). 2. Put all the documentation/information (links) for each Recommendation together in one place. Some are linked in the Final Implementation Report, some are listed under “Background Materials” in our wiki and others…. ? 3. In each Recommendation, provide completion dates for each listed “deliverable” that has a check-mark under “due date” instead of an actual date Thanks for your help.
