<p>Hi Julf,</p>
<p>Here are some documents as background to the three points raised
below:</p>
<p>1) Our Community Comments of February with deep concerns about
Registry Voluntary Commitments and the proposed ICANN Framework
that features "enforcement," but not a systematic process for
ICANN Org <i>to review and reject </i>proposed unacceptable
RVCs. NCSG has shared a six point guide for how ICANN might review
RVCs. What does Sally think? I should add, as you know, that we
are very concerned that ICANN not accept any "voluntary
commitment" unless they are clearly within the scope of ICANN's
2016 Bylaws, and thus not involving content, unduly impeding
competition for who can register domain names, nor bypassing the
Multistakeholder Model (comments attached).</p>
<p>2) Funding for engagement and mentorship opportunities. No docs,
just being told there is none there. Is that true? What can we do
about it?</p>
<p>3) Our Applicant Support Program comments. How do we make the
ASP Handbook more readable and the entire ASP program more
approachable?

<br>
<br>
There is much to discuss with Sally! Registry Voluntary
Commitments and our concerns that they will be used to undercut
ICANN's Bylaws and Multistakeholder Process. I will send
additional materials to you (and NCSG) from our comments in
February shortly.
<br>
<br>
Also funding from ICANN for recruitment and engagement activities.
Amounts seem to have gone to near zero, and yet, we need
volunteers in ICANN more than ever. Where and how will we get
them?
<br>
<br>
Plus, readable and accessibility of the Applicant Support Program,
its Handbook, and its application processes, per our recent
comments. (I'll send this shortly too).
<br>
<br>
Best and tx,
<br>
<br>
Kathy
