Topic 28: Application Comment
by Lars Hoffmann Nov. 21, 2023

Nov. 21, 2023

Dear IRT members, Due to unforeseen circumstances, we will not be able to discuss Topic 28 (Application Comment) today. We will provide a new date for this topic as soon as practical. Still, following the discussions held during Meeting #16<https://community.icann.org/x/SJOZDg>, we updated the proposed AGB language for Topic 28 and you can find that here for your review: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ybAJswI6oHwKZtAR1Qq6t1mKmIcZrwdF-fCmQVE… In addition, please find below our comments to some of the points/questions raised during the meeting<https://community.icann.org/x/SJOZDg>: 1. “In order to submit a comment, commenters will [...] be asked to indicate [...] whether they have a relationship with any of the applicants or applications.” * We have come up with a set of questions for your input, based on Implementation Guidance 28.5: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1D2quqw1ibPAzUZ3JgkXmryMeEGFODY9JywWNh0o… * We do not believe that we need to add any language to the AGB. It should be noted that if a commenter has any kind of relationship with an applicant or application, they will still be able to submit their comment and have it considered by evaluators. It will be up to the evaluators to assess whether that relationship plays a role or not. 1. “Community Action Forum” being confusingly similar with “Approval Action Community Forum”. * We came up with a potential new name - “Action Community Tool” (ACT). We think this would also better clarify that we are referring to the specific tool and not the period/process. Feedback and ideas are welcome! 1. How to ensure that the community is informed about the opening of the CAP? * The community will be informed about the opening of the CAP well in advance. More information on the timeline will be provided at a later stage. 1. From the discussions during Meeting #16, we understand that the group believes that the forum should be closed for comments at the end of the CAP. * We discussed the issue internally and concluded that ideally the forum should stay open for the following reasons: * The public should have the opportunity to bring forward issues in one place at any time in a transparent manner. * The forum will also be used in case of change requests, which may occur after the end of the Community Action Period. Closing and reopening the forum for some applications only might pose some system challenges. To address the concerns raised, we updated the language clarifying that only the comments and responses received during the time periods specified in the AGB will be reviewed by evaluators. We hope that this solution can be agreeable. Finally, please note that we will be able to define the exact timeframe of the Community Action Period (first paragraph) only at a later stage. Many thanks and see you on the IRT call in just over an hour. Best wishes Lars

Documents for Review + Looking Ahead to ICANN79
by Lars Hoffmann Nov. 16, 2023

Nov. 16, 2023

Dear members of the SubPro IRT, First, we would like to thank you for your work and input during the three IRT meetings in Hamburg. We feel that we have made significant progress and are looking forward to more productive discussions both remotely and in-person. We are also looking already towards ICANN79 and we have indicated to our GNSO support team colleagues a desire to hold multiple IRT sessions again in Puerto Rico. We will keep you informed on how the planning is progressing. Elisa is on a well deserved holiday this week and so, due to my sub-par calendaring skills, we will share an updated overview of upcoming meetings, including ASP and RSP sub-track meetings early next week. On the upside, there are two documents I would like to share with you at this point: 1. Updated language on Topic 3 “Applications Assessed in Rounds<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ycEvRMTkvRBm1Pd-Tt7Ewf4DHw1dKvTXc7KxKes…>” - you may recall we discussed this during ICANN78 and after some constructive feedback, we made some changes to the language. We will review the document during next weeks IRT call (21 November). A PDF is also attached for those with difficulties accessing google docs. 2. A document on ICANN org’s planning around the Continued Operations Instrument, following the Board’s non-adoption of recommendation 22.7 (see September 2023 Scorecard<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/scorecard-subpro-pdp-board-acti…>, p24) - see attached PDF. We believe it will be valuable to share this document with the GNSO Small Team Plus, too, though will leave that decision to Anne and others who patriciate in that group, too. Please note, on 21 November we also plan to discuss ‘Application Comments’ (in addition to Applications in Rounds) and will circulate updated languages as soon as practical. Please let us know if you have any questions. Very best. Lars
