FW: [council] International Registration Data (IRD) - Expert WG Report and Proposed Council Actions

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

 

In follow up to item #2 below, please find attached the input received from Jim 
Galvin, who served as Chair of the IRD Expert Working Group and who was a 
member of the Translation and Transliteration PDP Working Group as one of the 
representatives of the Registry Stakeholder Group. We did initially reach out 
to the chairs of the T & T Working Group, but unfortunately neither of them was 
available to provide a response so I am very grateful to Jim that he was able 
to step in. Note that further discussion on this item is foreseen during the 
upcoming GNSO Council meeting on 13 October. For your convenience, you will 
also find attached the original request from the ICANN Board as well as a table 
prepared by ICANN staff comparing both sets of recommendations.

 

Best regards,

 

Marika

Subject: [council] International Registration Data (IRD) - Expert WG Report and 
Proposed Council Actions

 

Council Colleagues -

 

Last month we received a letter (attached) from the ICANN Board, requesting 
that the GNSO Council analyze the Final Report from the 2012 WHOIS Expert 
Working Group for policy implications (IRD Final Report), and forward this 
report and our concerns to the appropriate PDP working groups, including the 
Next Generation RDS PDP working group at a minimum.

 

To move this task forward, here are the steps I propose:
That the Council, forward the IRD Final Report to the RDS PDP chairs, with the 
request that this PDP WG consider these recommendations within the context of 
that policy development work.  And that they report to us (via their Council 
Liaison) any elements of the IRD Recommendations that they believe to be 
incompatible with their Charter, or beyond the scope of a GNSO PDP,  and
That the Council also forward the IRD Final Report to the former chairs of the 
recently-completed Translation & Transliteration Working Group, with the 
request that they (along with support from Policy Staff) analyze the IRD 
Recommendations against the adopted Recommendations of their PDP (see 
Staff-prepared table, attached).  And that they report back to the Council with 
their assessment of whether or not these recommendations were adequately 
covered by the PDP, or if there are any omissions or incompatibilities, and
That we reply to the letter from Steve & the Board, acknowledge receipt of this 
request, and inform them of actions taken.
I’d welcome any additional thoughts on this topic, or the proposed path 
forward.  This is an extraordinarily complex topic, with numerous dependencies 
and moving parts, so please don’t hesitate to raise any questions or concerns.

 

 

Thank you,

 

J.
