Hi Amr,

I thought you volunteered for drafting/collecting comments :)


> 2. Policy and Implementation WG initial report (
> https://www.icann.org/public-comments/policy-implementation-2015-01-19-en)
> - PCP closes *March 3rd*.

please add the response to curative rights working group questionnaire
http://mailman.ipjustice.org/pipermail/pc-ncsg/2014-December/002154.html ,
unfortunately nobody volunteered for that.

I?m on both these WGs, and serving as GNSO council liaison to both of them.
> I?m willing to coordinate/draft responses to both of them.

> II. Other Open Public Comment Periods of possible interest:
>
> 1. WHOIS Accuracy Pilot Study Report (
> https://www.icann.org/public-comments/whois-ars-pilot-2014-12-23-en) -
> PCP closes *Feb 27th*. This is probably something we might find
> interesting, and may want to write something up on. Anyone on the PC
> willing to take a lead on it?
>
> III. Board Risk Committee Request for Feedback on Top 5 ICANN Enterprise
> Risks - Rafik sent an earlier message about this to the PC list, as did
> Bill to the NCUC list. The deadline to submit feedback is *Feb 5th*, so a
> bit pressing.

at least I have to submit 5 topics myself, any input would be helpful.

> IV. There are ongoing discussions regarding the ?public interest? context

> 1. On one hand, there is the review of the PICs and its review process.
> There seems to be a suggestion to create a working party (I guess similar

+1, for reference

> 2. On the other hand, there is the definition of ?public interest? in the
> ICANN context, it?s relevance to the ICANN by-laws and the ongoing work of

Bill talked about working on paper when we have the discussion in NCSG
list, not sure if he will do it or not.
for topics with the board, please propose that in NCSG list in the related
thread.

I would like to add:
- working on counter-proposal on VC election process. I think Avri
volunteered for that.
- GNSO review: we are supposed to receive one-pager position from CSG. we
may need to follow-up with the statement made during NCPH meeting @David
any update on the latest version?

Best
