RE: [council] FW: IOC/RC Drafting Team Status Report


Thanks Mary.  The document is “out for public comment” now.  I would love for 
it to be formally out, but some may argue that takes an act of Council.  We 
have a very limited time frame here and have had valuable input from each 
constituency and stakeholder group already and continue to get more.

Can ICANN staff put this on their page?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff and everyone on the DT, for some marvelously quick and detailed 
work, and for a very clear and concise report.


Question - will this be put out for "official" public comment? I ask partly 
because of the possibility that the Council will be asked to vote on at least 
some part of the report in Costa Rica, and also because the recommendations 
pertain to protections that will also apply to future new gTLD rounds.


As many of you know, I definitely support a closer, better and more responsive 
working relationship with the GAC; however, even leaving aside issues with the 
process by which this particular issue came to the table and has now to be 
resolved, I remain concerned about ad-hoc work under the heading of 
"implementation" that isn't so much a natural follow-up to the GNSO's own 
policy recommendations (i.e. in this case the 2007 report on new gTLDs) but 
which could change or conflict with them. I know this issue was raised during 
this particular DT's discussions, as was the issue of precedent-setting, so I'm 
glad we're watchful for these risks. This might, however, buttress the argument 
that at the very least, a public comment be instituted prior to any vote/action.


Cheers

Mary

Subject: IOC/RC Drafting Team Status Report

Heather, Mark and Suzanne,


As promised, please find enclosed a status report from the Chair of the IOC/RC 
Drafting Team of the GNSO Council that has been tasked with advising the GNSO 
Council with respect to the September 2011 GAC proposal on permanently 
protecting the Olympic and Red Cross names at the top and second levels for new 
gTLDs.  Although this report was shared with the members of the Drafting Team, 
it was drafted by me as the Chair, and as such is not an official report from 
the Drafting Team.  It represents the Chair’s current understanding of the 
discussions of the Drafting Team.  Each of the recommendations addressed in 
this report are still under review by the GNSO Community.  We are providing 
this report to assist in the discussions between the Drafting Team, interested 
GNSO Councilors and GAC members on March 2, 2012.



Please feel free to forward this report to the other members of the GAC as I 
will be sending this to the GNSO Council as well.  We look forward to a 
productive call this Friday as well as in Costa Rica at the ICANN meeting.



Best regards,
