Dear NCSG-EC:

Below is some additional information from the organization US-Ignite to clarify possible concerns raised in the Dec. NCSG-EC meeting regarding whether it is currently in operation and whether it is a purely noncommercial organization.  

Thanks,

In the meantime, its financial affairs are being handled by OneEconomy, an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable institution.   It has public members (the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science Foundation) with more public members pending.  Participants include the cities of Chattanooga, Tennessee, Cleveland, Ohio, Lafayette, Louisiana with additional cities pending.   US Ignite also expects to have industry participants as well who will be announced in the spring.

> I hope you are all enjoying a productive start to the new year.  As previously promised, attached please find a new checklist survey designed to gauge your GNSO Stakeholder Group (SG) or Constituency?s interest in receiving the various available GNSO Toolkit menu services for the ICANN 2013 Fiscal Year (FY13)(starting 1 July 2012). 
>  
> The purpose of the checklist survey is to help build a data set that will allow Policy Staff to contribute to the ICANN FY13 budget development process and otherwise develop staff resource plans for FY13.  It will also help us to organize any necessary follow-up planning discussions for those potentially challenging menu service items (e.g., web presence support, organizational record-keeping and membership contact lists which have been delayed by the longer implementation time of the GNSO web site effort)that will require further community/staff discussions and collaboration.
>  
> The GNSO Toolkit menu is a separate activity from the other budget framework discussions you may be having with the ICANN Finance Team. While some are still under development, the GNSO Toolkit menu services reflect core budget categories that the Policy Staff has taken ownership of and that we plan for in the budget effort as continuing services from year to year.
>  
> Glen needs to have each SG and Constituency?s completed form in hand by COB on 20 February to confirm each community?s desire for specific services in the upcoming fiscal year.  This mid-February date will give Policy Staff the opportunity to fold all the requests into the FY13 budget planning process and to specifically identify or designate potential resources where appropriate.
>  
> The checklist template has been created to provide for a consistent response format, but please feel free to provide expanded comments or additional thoughts for specific menu items when you transmit your completed responses to Glen.
>  
> We have also provided space in the survey for you to comment on the Staff provision/implementation of the various service menu items that you are currently receiving.  This will help us to assess and improve the effectiveness of the existing services.
>  
> This process may be new for some of you, and Glen and I are happy to give you background information. Please send a note to Glen and me if you have questions about any specific part of the checklist. We are also happy to join you for a telephone discussion as well. I have also attached a copy of the original GNSO Toolkit Implementation Plan/Report for your review and background information.
>  
> Finally, there is always room for improvement in the checklist template, so any comments or suggestions you have for improving the information collection process are also most welcomed.

Dear Executive Committee Members:

Since we only have received 1 new membership application since our December NCSG-EC meeting (forwarded to this list 3 Jan), we probably don't need to hold the January EC meeting via teleconference.  Instead we can discuss and decide on the membership application via the email list.   So this is a suggestion to cancel the January teleconference.  Would anyone prefer that we do not cancel the NCSG-EC teleconference on 26 January?  I'm happy to go forward with it as planned if anyone would prefer, but given the lack of other new membership applications in January, we don't have much to consider at this moment.   What do others think?

Thank you,
Robin

Agreed, Klaus.  Let's cancel this week's NCSG-EC teleconference.  I'll cancel the telephone bridge that was planned.  Let's continue to use this list to work through any membership applications that come in the meantime (or any other EC matters).

Thanks,
Robin

Hello Heidi,

Thanks for the email.  Yes, NCSG would like to have a discussion with At-Large in Costa Rica.  I think the time proposed below however may conflict with the GNSO Council meeting, where most of our members will need to be at that time.  Perhaps we could try an alternative time-slot?  

We'll come up with a couple substantive policy issues to propose for the agenda in the coming days.  

Thanks again!
Robin
