In Brief


The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks volunteers to
serve on a Drafting Team that will be tasked to develop a charter for a
Working Group to address issues that have been raised in the context of the
recent discussions on policy & implementation that affect the GNSO (see
<http://gnso.icann.org/en/correspondence/policy-implementation-framework-08j
an13-en.pdf> Staff Discussion Paper and
<http://beijing46.icann.org/node/37133> session in Beijing). The Drafting
Team is expected to submit the proposed Charter to the GNSO Council for
approval.


What This Team Will Do


The Drafting Team is expected to develop a Charter on the basis of the
<http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf>
GNSO Working Group Guidelines taking into account the Staff Discussion Paper
as well as the discussions that took place in Beijing. At a minimum, the
GNSO Council expects that the subsequent Working Group would provide
recommendations on the following:

1.	A set of principles that would underpin any GNSO policy /
implementation related discussions
2.	Recommendations on a process for providing GNSO "Policy Guidance"
3.	A framework for implementation related discussions related to GNSO
Policy Recommendations and
4.	Further guidance on how GNSO Implementation Review Teams are
expected to function and operate.


How This Team Will Work


ICANN Working Groups use transparent, open processes. The meetings of this
DT will be recorded, and the recordings will be available to the public. The
mailing list for the Drafting Team will be archived publicly. Drafting Team
members are expected to submit Statements of Interest (SOI). The group will
collaborate using a public workspace. The Drafting Team is expected to
follow the
<http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf>
GNSO Working Group Guidelines.


How to Join


The GNSO Council invites interested parties to provide names of expected
participants who can then be added to the DT mailing list. The DT will be
open to anyone interested to join. Community members who wish to be invited
to join the group should contact the
<mailto:gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxx?subject=Application%20to%20Join%20Policy%
20%26%20Implementation%20DT> GNSO secretariat (
<mailto:gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxx> gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxx).


Background


Mainly as a result of discussions stemming from implementation related
issues of the new gTLD program, there is increased focus on which topics
call for policy and which call for implementation work, including which
processes should be used, at what time and how diverging opinions should be
acted upon. In order to facilitate these discussions, ICANN Staff developed
a draft framework for community discussion that identifies a number of steps
and criteria that might facilitate dealing with similar questions in the
future. The paper identifies a number of questions that the community may
want to consider further in this context, as well as a couple of suggested
improvements that could be considered in the short term. While developing a
bright-line rule as to what is policy or implementation may not be possible,
the hope is that by developing clear processes and identifying clear roles
and responsibilities for the different stakeholders, it will become easier
to deal with these issues going forward and allow for broad participation
and involvement. Following several discussions by the GNSO Council on this
topic, the GNSO Council has now decided to form a drafting team to draft a
Charter for a Working Group which will be tasked to provide concrete
recommendations on how to address some of these issues from a GNSO
perspective.
