Importance: High

 

I forwarded the following message to the Council the yesterday and added
the topic to our agenda for our meeting under Other Business.
Unfortunately, as we ran out of time, I failed to cover it.  My intent
was to simply ask if anyone objected to considering the formation of a
WG as described by Chris and if not, to request volunteers to start
working on a possible charter with volunteers from the ccNSO.  So I will
ask those questions now:

 

1.       Does anyone object to considering the formation of such a WG?
Note that we would not make an official decision to support such a WG
until after we see a draft charter.  If anyone objects, please
communicate your objection not later than next Wednesday, 16 June.

2.       Assuming there is no opposition, who would like to volunteer
for the charter drafting team?  Note that this is not a request for
volunteers for what might eventually be a WG, but only for a charter DT.

Regarding question 2, there have already been some volunteers in
response to my message yesterday:

 

*         Terry Davis (NCA)

*         Rafik Damik (NCSG)

*         Greg Aaron (RySG, Afilias)

*         Kathy Kleiman (RySG, PIR)

*         Keith Drazek (RySG, VeriSign).

If anyone else wants to volunteer, please communicate your interest on
this list not later than next Wednesday, 16 June.  We will then
communicate the names and contact information to the ccNSO.

 

Thanks, Chuck

Subject: Joint Working Group to consider concept of DNS CERT

 

Chuck,

 

In our conversation last week we discussed the possibility of the gNSO
and ccNSO (along with other relevant ACs and independent experts)
setting up the working group contemplated in the joint Chair's letter to
ICANN of 25 March 2010 as soon as possible. 

 

I put this proposal to the ccNSO council on our call of 8 June and
confirm that the council has agreed that in the event of the proposal
also being agreed by the gNSO council, a small joint drafting team
should work before Brussels to draft the charter for the establishment
of a Working Group comprising representatives of ICANN's Security and
Stability Advisory Committee, Root Server System Advisory Committee,
GAC, ALAC, CERT operators and ccTLD and gTLD managers to draw upon their
collective expertise and to solicit their input on:

*         the broad concept of a DNS-CERT;

*         the current work being undertaken to mitigate DNS-related
threats;

*         the actual level, frequency and severity of these threats;

*         the gaps (if any) in the current security response to DNS
issues;

*         whether or not a DNS-CERT is a proposal they support; and

*         if so, the logistics of the proposal.

The goal would be to have the charter approved by the ccNSO and gNSO in
Brussels if possible so that we can announce the formation of the
working group. I'm guessing that formally the working group will need to
be a joint gNSO ccNSO group (as the 2 relevant supporting organisations
that can actually make policy) with the charter mandating the
involvement of the relevant ACs and outside experts. 

 

In the event that the gNSO council does approve the proposal then the
action items will be a) to call for some volunteers to do the drafting
along with Bart Boswinkel as ccNSO staff and an equivalent gNSO person
and b) to approach the other ACs to inform them that this is occurring.

 

I understand your council meets on 10 June 2010 and look forward to
hearing from you regarding your discussions.

 

Cheers,
