[council] ICANN 50: GNSO Council Meeting with the ICANN GDD

["Jonathan Robinson" <jrobinson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

 

Following on from my related recent emails, please can you provide input as
to the topics your SG and/or Constituency would like to see the Council
(bearing in mind the role and function of the Council) raise and discuss in
our  in our meeting with the ICANN Generic Domains Division in London.


Please note that we will also be meeting separately with the ICANN Board,
the ICANN CEO (who will be present when we meet with the board) & the
Strategic Advisor to the CEO (Teresa Swineheart) so it's also important to
think about which the best forum to raise a particular issue or topic.

 

GDD staff expected to be present when we meet with them are Akram Atallah,
Cyrus Namazi & Christine Willet.

 

A couple of ideas:

 

-          An update on key themes of the work of the Council and associated
policy work in the GNSO (Keeping this very short)

-          Specific policy related concerns with respect to the
implementation of the new gTLD programme?

-          An update from the GDD on the process and activity for policy
implementation work. Specifically, it will be helpful to get input on
progress towards implementation of:

o    IRTP Part B Recommendations #8 (adopted by the ICANN Board in May 2012)
and #9 part 2 (adopted by the ICANN Board in March 2012)

o    IRTP Part C (adopted by the ICANN Board in December 2012)

o    Locking of a Domain Name subject to UDRP Proceedings (adopted by the
ICANN Board in September 2013)

o   Thick Whois (adopted by the ICANN Board in February 2014)

-          A current / latest version of thinking on the next round of new
TLDs and any expectations of what the Council might do here

-          A N Other Topic/s
