Thanks Tony for the summary.
 
On JAS:
 
I'm just in co-ordination with Thomas to provide for an ISPCP comment

put to the list for last coordination shortly.
 
On council meetings: the next meeting will be tomorrow.

	Betreff: [ispcp] Summary and actions from ISPCP conference call
13 July 2011
	
	

	The following represents a summary of the main discussion points
and actions from the ISPCP conference call held on 13 July 2011

	 

	*         New Constituencies

	Attention was focused on ICANN's approval of the NPOC
constituency which was now part of the NCSG. It was noted that
discussions were taking place within the NCSG with regard to future
elections of GNSO Councillors and that the current rules would see that
result decided by a single vote majority of all NCSG members. That
approach facilitates capture by a Constituency with the highest number
of members and has the potential to block access to Council by
representatives from smaller Constituencies, in this case the NPOC. The
opinion of the ISPCP is that no single Constituency should hold more
than a set level of seats.

	Tony Holmes was requested to raise this issue with the CSG
Executive.

	Note: This action has been followed up and the CSG are now
discussing whether/how to pursue this.

	*         ATRT Update

	As a member of the ATRT Committee, Olivier Muron reported that
he was not aware of any recent developments with regard to the ATRT
since the Singapore meeting.

	Attention was drawn to the discussions led by the ISPCP on ATRT
progress which had taken place during the CSG session with the ICANN
Board in Singapore. The ISPCP had raised concern over the perceived lack
of action. In particular the ISPCP was concerned over the lack of
precise details showing how the community would be able to interact as
staff progressed improvements on 'public comment periods' as this had
the ability to impact the work of the Constituency. 

	As nothing appeared to have changed since the Singapore meeting,
Tony Holmes was requested to follow-up this issue with Denise Michelle.

	Note: Since the ISPCP call ICANN staff has notified the
community they are setting in place a focus group to facilitate input.
For the CSG representatives on this group will be Marilyn Cade and
Jonathan Zuck, with feedback to the ISPCP agreed.

	*         GNSO toolkit

	The ISPCP concluded their key preferences from the GNSO toolkit
list as;

	*         Providing grants/Funding for Constituencies to provide
their own administrative support

	*         Web site hosting and content maintenance

	*         Assisting in conducting elections for Officers

	Tony Holmes was requested to inform Rob Hoggarth. 

	In addition its was requested that Rob Hoggarth is invited to
attend the ISPCP meeting in Senegal in order to discuss ISPCP web site
requirements in more detail.

	Note: This action has since been completed.

	*         Budget

	Following the discussion between the CSG and the ICANN Board on
budget issues in Singapore the CSG decided to set in place a small team
(2 per Constituency) to consider the budget and operational plan in more
detail. This will form an on-going task within the CSG. For the ISPCP
Tony Holmes and Jaime Wagner will represent the Constituency. 

	Note: The CSG have been informed and this work is expected to
commence shortly.

	Whilst the GNSO Council are also due to discuss budget issues
the ISPCP will only support their consideration of issues that are
specific to the policy work of the Council.

	*         GNSO outreach task force

	Olga Carvelli will be leading the GNSO Outreach Task Force and
has requested volunteers from all Constituencies. Tony Harris has
volunteered to cover this for the ISPCP and Thomas Rickert will be the
alternate. 

	Note: The Chair of this group has since been advised.

	*         JAS 

	Council delegates advised that the report from the JAS wg has
still to be agreed by the GNSO despite its submission to the Board.
Thomas Rickert reported that he had reviewed the JAS proposals on behalf
of the ISPCP (as agreed in Singapore) and had sent a message to the
ISPCP mailing list, advising the Constituency should generally support
the ideas set out within the report, but additionally state the IPv6
requirements should not be waived. The JAS report currently takes no
position on this. ISPs will be involved with back-end providers that
would use IPv6 and this needs to be encouraged to ensure operational
stability. On financial stability, Thomas proposed that needy applicants
should only be required to demonstrate financial stability for 6-12
months or the barrier to entry would be too high, and that ICANN needed
to offer support to needy applicants if they faced bankruptcy in order
to ensure operational  and technical stability. In addition ICANN could
also assist with the provision of legal advice, but any such action
should be undertaken by 3rd parties.

	*         GNSO Council meetings

	The next GNSO Council meeting is planned for July 25. At the
date of this call no meeting was planned for August.

	*         Elections

	Election are required to be held for the ISPCP Council seats
prior to Senegal

	In addition the ISPCP needs to appoint a new delegate to the
2011-2012 Nominating Committee and reappoint CSG Executive officers.

	Following Senegal an election will take place for the
Constituency Chair

	Secretary to arrange.

	*         IANA contract

	Alain Bidron introduce a draft response to be submitted by the
ISPCP on the recent announcement regarding the IANA contract. Comments
should be submitted to the list (copied direct to Alain) by 20th July to
enable submission by the 29th July deadline.

	*         Date of next Constituency call was agreed as Wednesday
17 August at 14.00 UTC
