Assunto: [council] New gTLD Recommendation 6 Community Working Group
Prioridade: Alta

 

Hopefully all of you are aware that the GAC requested a community working
group to discuss the implementation of the GNSO New gTLD Recommendation 6.
To accommodate that request, the list that the GNSO established in follow-up
to Bill Drake?s request in our Brussels Wrap-Up session to participate in
the discussions on this topic going on within the GAC an ALAC will be used
for the community working group discussions.

Considering how late this is happening relative to the new gTLD process,
Cheryl Langdon-Orr, chair of the ALAC, and Heather Dryden, Chair of the GAC,
and I have been discussing how to go about accommodating the GAC request in
a timely manner.  To expedite discussions, we decided to prepare an initial
draft Terms of Reference (ToR) for discussion by those who have volunteered
to participate in the group.  The hope is to very quickly finalize the ToR
so that discussion of the issues may begin and thereby have a chance of
developing recommendations for improving the implementation plan for
Recommendation 6 in the Draft Application Guidebook, version 4.

As you can see in the draft ToR, this is not a PDP.  The GNSO Council
already approved Recommendation 6 by a super-majority vote.  There is no
intent to undo the intent of that recommendation; to do that would require a
PDP because it would be materially changing an already approved policy
recommendation.  Rather, the intent is to explore whether the implementation
process in version 4 of the Guidebook could be improved in a way that
addresses any of the GAC and ALAC concerns.

As all of you know, there is no established process for community working
groups.  In drafting the initial ToR for discussion, we tried to accommodate
the needs of all three organizations especially in terms of how they
operate, which are different in certain respects.  Please note that the
group is open to all community participants from all SOs and ACs and for
that matter any who are not SO or AC participants.

I believe that this could be the first significant effort of the GNSO and
GAC working together in a WG and I am hopeful that it will provide some
lessons for how we can to that better on other issues in the future, just
like the GNSO Council discussed with the GAC in Brussels.  The GAC has an
important advisory role in ICANN policy processes as they relate to public
policy issues and we all know that the Board will listen intently to the GAC
advice on the implementation of Recommendation 6.  Therefore, it seemed wise
to try to do that sooner rather than later to minimize any further delays.

I will add this topic to the agenda for 26 August but would really
appreciate it if we can discuss it on the list in advance.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Chuck
