[PC-NCSG] fw: [council] Final Issue Report on New gTLD Subsequent Procedures

Sat Dec 5 13:14:00 EET 2015

Hello everyone,

Thanks Ed for sending the final report. Maybe it would be interesting to us
all on the list if we can map the parallel tracks of discussion that relate
to the new gTLD program assessment, so we can decide the best way to
intervene:

a) Competition, consumer trust and consumer choice review (CCT). This
review about the new gTLD program is part of the Affirmation of Commitment
mandatory periodic reviews.
Status: self-nominations for the review team have been made. SO/ACs are
deliberating on endorsements. The decision on the composition of the team
will be made by CEO and GAC chair.  See:
https://www.icann.org/resources/reviews/aoc/cct

b) Potential GNSO policy development process on new gTLD subsequent
procedures. The final issue report (shared by Ed) was sent to the GNSO and
this will probably trigger a policy development process.

c) Implementation review and other assessments/metrics being produced by
ICANN. These process has been going on for some time and several documents
have been produced. Although they do not have a policy nature, they
will probably feed parallel discussions (CCT and the GNSO PDP). For
example, see a draft report produced by ICANN staff on implementation
review, which is under public comment until December 7th.

Although the goals and mandate of the three processes are different, they
will have points of overlap, so I think it is useful to look at the whole
landscape, although, as Policy Committee, our focus would lie more
naturally on the second one.

Lastly, the Cross Community Working Party on ICANN's corporate and social
responsibility to respect human rights (*CCWP-HR*) has created subgroups to
perform different tasks. *Subgroup 4* will be dedicated to "Providing input
to PDP new gTLDs from a human rights perspective". We had our first call
yesterday. If you would like to join this group, please do so at:
https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/cc-humanrights4
In any case, I am facilitating the work there and will keep the information
flowing both ways.

Best wishes!
Mar?lia
