RE: [council] - Preliminary Issue Report - New gTLD Subsequent Procedures

["Austin, Donna" <Donna.Austin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I support Volker's position.

I would also add, that given the considerable amount of work that was 
undertaken by the Discussion Group which largely scoped and informed the Issues 
Report, I do not see any reason to extend the comment period by an extra 20 
days.

It would appear from Steve's email that if we delay the posting of the Issue 
Report by 3 days to 3 September, it removes the possibility of the Council 
considering the Final Report on 19 November.

Thanks

Donna

Hi Steve,

thank you indeed for the update.

I see no reason to delay the publication, especially since the delay by a few 
days will cause us to lose a full month at least.
Given that we can expect delays down the road as this will be a piece of 
substantial work, I would favor publication sooner rather than later, with a 
standard 40 day comment period.

Best,

Volker

Steve and GNSO Councillors,

It seems to me that we need to think about a three points here:


1.      Do we publish 31st August i.e. ahead of the forthcoming council meeting 
and such that we can deal with this at the 19 November meeting as per option 1 
below OR

2.      Do we publish 3rd September and, if so, does that necessarily mean we 
miss dealing with it on 19 November?

3.      Regardless of 31 August or 3rd September, do we think that a public 
comment period of more than the now standard 40 day period is necessary?

Note: My  personal opinion is that it would be OK to publish with a 40 day 
comment period and then extend if that was felt to be important / necessary and 
that this will not be confusing.

Thoughts / input will be helpful, especially if we are to publish the report by 
31 August.

Thanks,


Jonathan

Bret,

Thanks, great question and hopefully the information below is beneficial to the 
Council's consideration of the 3 day hold, as well as the discussion around the 
extended public comment period. Regarding next steps and timing, here is the 
relevant language from the PDP Manual:

The Staff Manager is responsible for drafting a summary and analysis of the 
public comments received on the Issue Report and producing a Final Issue Report 
based upon the comments received. The Staff Manager should forward the Final 
Issue Report, along with any summary and analysis of the public comments 
received, to the Chair of the GNSO Council for consideration for initiation of 
a PDP.

The summary and analysis and the Final Issue Report are expected to be 
delivered to the Chair of the GNSO Council within 30 days of the closing of the 
public comment forum, though the Staff Manager may request an extension of that 
30-day time for delivery.

Without knowledge of the level of public comment that will be received, it is 
difficult to estimate how long the summary and analysis and Final Issue Report 
will take to prepare. However, assuming 30 days, here are the three timelines 
expanded to include the next GNSO Council meeting, as long as the document and 
motion deadline is met. I would note, these are are the first, and not only, 
opportunities for the Council to consider the initiation of a PDP:

  *   Publish 31 August -> 40 Day Public Comment -> Close 10 October -> 9 
November PC Analysis & Final Report -> 9 November Documents & Motions Deadline 
-> 19 November GNSO Council Meeting
  *   Publish 3 September -> 40 Day Public Comment -> Close 13 October -> 12 
November PC Analysis & Final Report -> 7 December Documents & Motions Deadline 
-> 17 December GNSO Council Meeting
  *   Publish 3 September -> 60 Day (for instance) Public Comment -> Close 2 
November -> 2 December PC Analysis & Final Report -> 7 December Documents & 
Motions Deadline -> 17 December GNSO Council Meeting
These are all estimates of course, and in the case of the first bullet, 
dependent on everything executing according to plan to be able to precisely hit 
the documents & motions deadline. Substantial public comment and substantive 
changes to the Final Report could ultimately derail these timelines.

Apologies for the lengthy response, but I hope this answers your questions.

Best,
Steve

Thanks Steve. Great news on the progress.

On the timelines, can you remind me what happens after the close of the comment 
deadline? How do we get from the close of the public comment period to Day 1 of 
the PDP working group? How many Council meetings/votes between close of comment 
period and starting the hard policy work?

Dear Councilors,

Staff is on track to be able to deliver the Preliminary Issue Report on New 
gTLD Subsequent Procedures for public comment by the end of August, as 
discussed on the previous GNSO Council meeting. However, I wanted to note that 
during the meeting, the possibility of providing for an extended public comment 
period was also discussed, which would keep it open through the ICANN54 
meeting. This topic is expected to be on the agenda for the next Council 
meeting, scheduled for 03 September and as such, it may make sense to delay the 
publication of the report by approximately 3 days to allow for discussion 
during the meeting and a decision to be made, to avoid confusion from possibly 
amending the comment close date. The impact appears to be minimal:

  *   Publish 31 August -> 40 Day Public Comment -> Close 10 October (note that 
this is a Saturday)
  *   Publish 3 September -> 40 Day Public Comment -> Close 13 October
  *   Publish 3 September -> 60 Day (for instance) Public Comment -> Close 2 
November
Staff is leaning towards waiting the three days and immediately putting in the 
request to publish the Preliminary Issue Report after a decision is made, but 
wanted to be sure there were no strong objections to this approach.

Best,
