Hi all,



As we have discussed previously, there is an ICANN bylaw requirement that
the community establish a nomination process for members of the IRP
Standing Panel. The GNSO needs to determine how we will contribute to this
effort. Our Standing Selection Committee (SSC) is one option that seems
purpose-built for such an appointment, and I believe there is some support
for that among our SG and Cs. I’m teeing this up for follow-on work after
ICANN 69 concludes, but also flagging it because it’s time-sensitive.  Mary
will be available to answer any questions on next steps, and the Terms of
Reference are attached.



Thanks and regards,

Keith

*Subject: *UPDATED FOR YOUR REVIEW: Terms of Reference for Community
Representatives Group to nominate the IRP Standing Panel



Dear community leaders,



I apologize for adding to the number of emails you are no doubt receiving
as we move into the ICANN69 Community Week. However, we thought you would
prefer to receive this update sooner rather than later, so that you can
inform your respective groups and factor in the need to initiate your
internal processes to select members for the Community Representatives
Group into your overall planning and current activities.



Please therefore find attached the updated, proposed Terms of Reference
(ToR) that will guide the work of the Community Representatives Group to
select a slate of nominees for the Independent Review Process (IRP)
Standing Panel. We have included the additional criteria suggested by Donna
as well as cleaned up the document to reflect previous feedback from
various groups. As the first action will involve constituting the Community
Representatives Group, I will also highlight the fact that we have noted
your collective preference that the Group be kept small, comprise an odd
number (at least 7, but not more than 15, members), be as diverse as is
feasible, and possess certain skillsets in the aggregate. The updated ToR
also notes that the Group will seek to act by consensus, select its own
Chair, and maintain confidentiality of its deliberations while maintaining
as much transparency as is practicable (e.g. publication of the final ToR,
the Group members’ Statements of Interest and other relevant documents).



Assuming that the updated ToR reflects your understanding of the agreements
reached and general expectations of the role and tasks for the Group, we
suggest issuing a call for Expressions of Interest for potential Group
members soon. I will be happy to assist with drafting that call, and if
appropriate can send you a draft for your approval before ICANN69 concludes.



Thank you all again for your very helpful feedback and time.



Best regards,

Mary (on behalf of the ICANN org team assisting with this effort)

Hi Mary



Sorry for being late with my input. I support the proposal as captured as a
result of our last call and add a few criteria for consideration.



*Proposal for final community leaders’ discussion and decision: *

The Community Representatives Group should be a small, lightweight,
odd-numbered group of between 7-15 members, who [in the aggregate] have
[the following agreed] expertise and who, as far as possible, represents a
diversity of stakeholders and interests across the ICANN community. The
size of the group is less important than the skillsets/expertise of the
members on the group.

*Suggested non-exhaustive list of expertise which the Group should possess
in the aggregate: *

(1) experience in selecting Board members (or similar officers or
appointees with fiduciary duties) or service on a nominating committee for
such selections (note: does not have to be ICANN’s Nominating Committee;
experience in academic departments could meet this expertise);

(2) experience working with recruitment firms and managing vendors;

(3) relevant organizational and process experience (i.e. ability to
understand and evaluate the standing panelist criteria and responses, which
includes legal and arbitration experience) and

(4) understanding of the Independent Review Process and its role as an
ICANN accountability mechanism/relationship to ICANN bylaws (something like
that)

(5) ability to work in a small team across multiple timezones

(6) must be able to commit considerable time and effort to the selection
process over a short but concentrated time period



Thanks



Donna

*Subject:* Follow up: Community Representatives Group for nominating IRP
Standing Panel



Notice: This email is from an external sender.



Dear community leaders,



Thank you for your time and input during the calls and regarding the draft
Terms of Reference circulated previously, concerning the formation of a
Community Representatives Group to select a slate of nominees for the IRP
Standing Panel. Please find attached the following for your further
consideration:



   1. *Updated draft Terms of Reference*, incorporating input received to
   date (most recently from the GAC) as well as two comments from ICANN org on
   the GAC’s questions about the role of the Empowered Community and document
   disclosure – basically:

·        while the EC may be a Claimant in an IRP, the formation and
selection of the Standing Panel is not an EC action; and

·        requests for document disclosure will be handled in accordance
with ICANN org’s Documentary Information Disclosure Policy (DIDP).

   1. *Notes from the 2 September call* where the composition and criteria
   for appointment to the Community Representatives Group as well as a
   possible timeline were discussed.
   2. *The list of criteria and requirements for IRP panelists* that were
   published along with the call for Expressions of Interest.



*Next steps as captured in the action items from 2 September*



For community leaders:

   - Please review and provide comments on:


   - The *proposal* that emerged on the call, as regards the Community
      Representatives Group (viz. “The Community Representatives Group
should be
      a small, lightweight, odd-numbered group of between 7-15 members, who [in
      the aggregate] have [the following agreed] expertise and who, as far as
      possible, represents a diversity of stakeholders and interests across the
      ICANN community. The size of the group is less important than the
      skillsets/expertise of the members on the group”; and
      - The type of *expertise* which the Community Representatives Group
      should possess in the aggregate (three of which, identified on the call,
      have been captured in the notes).


   - If your group wishes to provide input or additional comments on the
   draft Terms of Reference, we will be grateful if you are able to do
so by *18
   September* if at all possible.



For ICANN org:

   - Following receipt of additional input on the updated Terms of
   Reference (if any), we will prepare and circulate a consolidated and
   updated document and timeline.
   - Once a draft Statement of Work (SOW) is available as regards
   appointment of the external expert, we will circulate the draft SOW to this
   group as well.



Thank you. Please let me, Sam (Eisner) and Liz (Le) know if you have any
questions. We look forward to your continued discussions and will be happy
to assist in any way we can to facilitate your decisions.



Cheers

Mary
