*Item 3: Consent Agenda (0 minutes) *
- None
*Item 4: COUNCIL VOTE - Adoption of the Final Report on Expedited PDP on
the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data (40 minutes)*
On 11 May 2018, ICANN released the Temporary Specification
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/approved-with-specs-2013-09-17-en#consensus-temporary>
on gTLD Registration Data, which served as the main agenda topic for the
subsequent Board Workshop in Vancouver. This proposed Temporary
Specification provides an interim solution until the community completes a
policy development process on the temporary specification which is expected
to complete within a one year period.
On 17 May 2017, the ICANN Board approved
<https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2018-05-17-en>
the proposed Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/gtld-registration-data-specs-en>,
which establishes temporary requirements for how ICANN and its Contracted
Parties will comply with both ICANN contractual requirements and the
European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
On 12 June 2018, the Council held an Extraordinary Council Meeting to
discuss next steps on addressing the Temporary Specification. There, the
Council agreed in principle that an EPDP was the right way to address the
issue and took steps to draft the charter and prepare for EPDP initiation.
On 19 July 2018, the Council voted to initiate an EPDP on the Temporary
Specification
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/temp-spec-gtld-rd-epdp-initiation-request-19jul18-en.pdf>,
as well as to adopt the EPDP’s charter
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/temp-spec-gtld-rd-epdp-19jul18-en.pdf>
.
The EPDP Team held its first meeting on 1 August 2018 and on 21 November
2018, the EPDP published its Initial Report for public comment
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/epdp-gtld-registration-data-specs-initial-2018-11-21-en>.
After taking into account public comment received, the EPDP Team has worked
to deliver its Final Report <https://community.icann.org/x/u4E2Bg>to the
GNSO Council for its consideration. Due to the unique circumstances
concerning the deadline for implementation, and in order to minimize the
transition period, the EPDP Leadership and Team informally recommends that
discussion around implementation deliverables be initiated immediately.
This preliminary work will inform the deliberations of the formal
Implementation Recommendation Team upon Board approval of the Policy
Recommendations.
Here, the Council will vote to adopt the Final Report of the EPDP Team.
4.1 - Presentation of motion (Rafik Dammak)
4.2 - Council discussion
4.3 - Council vote (voting threshold: Supermajority)
*Taking this action is within the GNSO’s remit as outlined in ICANN’s
Bylaws as the GNSO ‘shall be responsible for developing and recommending to
the Board substantive policies relating to generic top-level domains and
other responsibilities of the GNSO as set forth in these Bylaws’
(Art.11.1). Furthermore, this action complies with the requirements set out
in Annex A: GNSO Policy Development Process of the ICANN Bylaws.*
*Item 5: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - Expedited PDP on the Temporary Specification
for gTLD Registration Data - Phase 2 Work (15 minutes)*
As noted in the charter
<https://community.icann.org/display/EOTSFGRD/EPDP+Team+Charter> for the
Expedited PDP on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data,
work on a System for Standardized Access to Non-Public Registration Data
can only commence after the work on a series of gating questions are
complete. With the EPDP Team’s delivery of its Final Report to the GNSO
Council, the work on the gating questions can be considered to be completed
and the work on the System for Standardized Access to Non-Public
Registration Data, or otherwise known as phase 2 of the EPDP, should be
allowed to commence. However, per the EPDP Team Charter, beginning that
work is dependent upon non-objection of the GNSO Council (which is captured
and granted in the resolution language for item 4 of this agenda). As part
of the resolved clause, “...The Council does request that the EPDP Team, as
a first step, develops its work plan for phase 2 and, furthermore,
identifies whether the GNSO Council should consider any updates to the EPDP
Team Charter to facilitate the EPDP Team’s work.”
The Council recognizes that suggestions to update the structure of the EPDP
Team and any changes to the Charter are best delivered by the EPDP Team.
However, the Council believes that it is constructive to have a preliminary
discussion on the subject to see if there are any areas that Councilors
believe will require revision for phase 2.
Here, the Council will have preliminary discussions on possible changes
needed for phase 2 of the EPDP.
5.1 – Introduction of topic (Council leadership)
5.2 – Council discussion
5.3 – Next steps
*Item 6: COUNCIL UPDATE – Status of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP
WG (20 minutes)*
On 17 December 2015, the GNSO Council resolved to initiate the PDP on New
gTLD Subsequent Procedures, which was tasked to consider and analyze issues
discussed in the Final Issue Report on New gTLD Subsequent Procedures and
Applicant Guidebook to determine whether changes or adjustments to the
existing policy recommendations are needed. The Charter
<https://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/new-gtlds/subsequent-procedures-charter-21jan16-en.pdf>
was subsequently adopted on 12 January 2016 and the WG began meeting in
February of that year.
Given the broad scope of the topics captured in the WG’s Charter, the WG
established four sub teams to help streamline its work. The WG
published an Initial
Report
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/gtld-subsequent-procedures-initial-2018-07-03-en>
on those subjects in July of 2018. The WG also considered several topics
that it believed did not undergo adequate deliberations and in October of
2018 published a Supplemental Initial Report
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/new-gtld-subsequent-procedures-supp-initial-2018-10-30-en>
on those additional subjects.
In addition, the WG convened Work Track 5, which is dedicated to the
singular topic of geographic names at the top-level. WT5 published its
Supplemental Initial Report in December of 2018. The WG is in the midst of
considering the extensive public comment received to its three reports and
will begin substantive discussions shortly. The WG hopes to be able to
conclude all aspects of its work and deliver a single Final Report to the
GNSO Council.
Here, the Council will receive a detailed update from the WG’s Co-Chairs,
Jeff Neuman and Cheryl Langdon-Orr.
6.1 – Presentation of topic (WG Co-Chairs, Jeff Neuman and Cheryl
Langdon-Orr)
6.2 – Council discussion
6.3 – Next steps
*Item 7: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (15 minutes)*
7.1 - ICANN64 Planning
7.2 - Lessons learned from the Council public comment formulation for the
ICANN Draft FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Five-Year Operating Plan
Update and the ICANN Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2021-2025
7.3 - Public Comment: First Consultation on a 2-Year Planning Process
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/two-year-planning-2018-12-21-en>
