I would be happy to join the DT for NCSG if there is no objection, or if someone else wants to volunteer. Best, Rafik ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Glen de Saint G?ry Dear All, As you may know, the GNSO Council agreed to form a Drafting Team during ICANN52 to start planning for the new ICANN meeting strategy which will be implemented in 2016 (see https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/recommendations-25feb14-en.pdf). In order to ensure co-ordination amongst all parts of the GNSO that are involved in participating in and organising meetings, each Stakeholder Group / Constituency is invited to contribute one member to this drafting team (ideally this is someone who is familiar with the current meeting schedule and requirements for your respective groups). Of course, it is the expectation that any recommendations that may come out of this drafting team will be shared with the GNSO for input before being finalised. Existing Council volunteers for this effort are Tony Holmes, Bret Fausett, James Bladel and Volker Greimann. Please let the GNSO Secretariat know by 13 March at the latest whom from your respective groups would like to join this effort.

As you know, new gTLD auction proceeds have been building up and there is no current plan in place for the use or allocation of these funds. In order to commence discussions on a plan for the use of new gTLD auction proceeds, the GNSO would like to form a working group to develop recommendations on this topic. As such, I am reaching out to you to see whether there is an interest to form a cross-community working group on this topic. Note, should there not be sufficient interest to form a cross-community working group at this stage, the GNSO plans to form a GNSO working group on this topic which will be open to anyone interested to participate in. Regardless of which approach is chosen, it is the GNSO?s expectation that any work on this topic will be conducted through an open and consultative process allowing everyone interested to participate and provide their perspectives. In order to determine the interest from the different communities in this topic, I would like to ask you to provide an initial response to me by *14 March 2015* at the latest. Based on the feedback received, the GNSO Council will initially discuss how to proceed at its meeting on 19 March 2015.

My submission was one of the group that Steve Crocker commented on (saying they have received suggestions) in Singapore. From prior experience part of the task/trick is to prevent this from turning into a "swamp". Who is that guy who is always saying "what are the core values here?" :-) Sam L.

I think you make a good point. I don?t see any harm in having constituency representatives forwarded. One thought that comes to mind is that NCUC and NPOC have their own meetings on CD, and might want to be represented in this discussion. This does not mean that NCSG would also not want to be represented on the SG level. NCSG has its own meetings on CD as well as the PC meeting during the traditional weekend prior to the meeting?s beginning. Other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

However, I listened to the transcript and quite frankly I think I would have gone right bonkers had I been on the call. Michele Neylon and Volker Greiman did not actually need our help. However, I really think that since we now have a genuine data protection authority among us now in the form of Joy (cheers and clapping!) (my credentials have long since faded, I am afraid, since I left the OPC in 2007) we should try to draft Joy to join this committee. Monthly calls only. I would be happy to support and brief her, but we need her to tell these guys just exactly how crazy this procedure is. Members of the PPSAI have heard me threaten that the only way to resolve this issue is to crowd source a global appeal to federal courts in numerous jurisdictions, if ICANN will not accept the word of a data commissioner that WHOIS practices violate DP law. Nevertheless, they were sticking to that line in today's call, backed up by the NTIA, who helpfully suggested that ICANN should ask the GAC for an opinion. They are actually talking still about ICANN hiring a privacy counsel to offer an opinion (in place of the questionable authority of a DP authority. IPC position is that if DPAs cannot actually enforce the law (ie no criminal sanctions, no ability to enforce) then registrars should not be off the hook.....unbelievable, i need to listen to previous transcripts just to be sure I got that right....we should import that logic into PPSAI with respect to copyright and trademark enforcement. I digress... As Michele kept saying, it hurts my head. I am not trying to hurt Joy's head too, but I think it would be delightful if she would participate and sort them out. Kind regards, Stephanie.

One can listen to parts of the audio from ICANNXX and find it a lot like the audio from ICANNXX-1. For that once a year would be enough. And some of us have no problem with that aspect of the meeting proposal, but don?t want the middle meeting, which is supposed to be the SO/AC focussed meeting, to have less actual time for SO/AC work. I?d love a middle meeting that is somewhat shorter than the current, by dumping the opening ceremony, public forum in whole or part, the big picture sessions etc. and that by skipping a lot of the business focussed items, social events, etc allows us to focus on getting work done. The real problem is that ICANN has a large number of people who attend but have very little to do with SOAC work, and that makes the meetings, especially the big plenary sessions, very big. The real problem is size, not length, so I don?t know why they are being so defensive on length. > Lastly, with a shorter non-SC agenda and reworking the shorter schedual there are opportunities for SGs to get more work done, deal across SGs in more productive ways, and -very important- have greater engagement with their constituencies in the new meeting regions. Indeed, and thats all fine. The problem is that rather than a meeting schedule that has a shorter non-SO/AC agenda allowing more time for SOAC work, we have a meeting that has a shorter non-SOAC agenda, and a shorter SOAC agenda too.

Many come away with a feeling that it was ritual and that all the board is doing is looking accessible..and little more. There is little evidence to counter that impression. Some come away bruised. I spent 30 minutes with the highly esteemed medical professor who "confronted" the board on .health in Los Angeles. He walked out of there bruised and confused. There of course those who confront the board as "part of their job", i.e., some commercial and non-contract people at the event, and others doing it as career capital. Fine, but it all falls short on the "voice of the local folk" part. This would work if we (the SG's) better engaged the "local folk" prior to the meetings and prior to the public forum. ICANN underestimates the extent to which it is a "walled city" from the outside. After Singapore I was in Bangkok and looking at DNS awareness and issues in Myanmar and Laos. There should/could have been targeted pre-Conference outreach there. ICANN has little presence there, little evidence of effort, or of any impact. Last year, in Buenos Aires, the only major local coverage of ICANN was basically a pre-conference Sunday Clarion article based on an interview with me. The CEOs local appearances are seen more as PR than outreach. For Buenos Aires this time, are their pot boiler DNS issues in Latin America? As far as the NPOC constituency group members are concerned, there are, but they don't view "a chance to confront the Board" as even a card in their DNS strategy deck of playing cards for dealing with the issues.

Rafik volunteered to do this. I would appreciate views on this, including if others feel there is another candidate who would be willing and appropriate for consideration. I would like to make clear that it is the duty of the PC to make this appointment on behalf of the full NCSG, and not on behalf of any of its constituencies. I suggest that NCUC and NPOC take up the matter of their own appointments directly with staff, if they so wish. This discussion certainly has value, and perhaps can be taken up on another thread. I think it would be ideally take place on NCSG-DISCUSS, not here. Thanks.

I have listened to the recording, and I can see I missed an interesting meeting. I would like to offer my views on why the procedure and the remedies discussed are off the mark. I am not a lawyer, but I did spend ten years in the Canadian government working on the privacy standard which we attempted to take to ISO, and the law which passed parliament and is in force today (PIPEDA). During that period (the 1990s) I did considerable research on how to legislate privacy for the private sector, particularly in a federal jurisdiction, and had the opportunity to hold workshops with data protection authorities to discuss powers and what provisions work better than others, to consult with the European Commission, and converse with privacy scholars. It is this experience that I hope might make my remarks useful to the discussion. I also served two years as the Director of Policy and Research in our federal DPA's office, and spoke many years ago on WHOIS issues on behalf of the office at the Vancouver meeting. Still, remember that my remarks are those of a non-lawyer and therefore an amateur. 1. On the issue of whether a data protection authority is legitimate....that is an excellent question. Unfortunately for those wishing to harmonize, different jurisdictions may have authority...in the Canadian context, it is hard to predict whether or not a provincial data commissioner might think they have jurisdiction. Where there is none, the federal commissioner assuredly would. I have written a textbook on our law, but I would not be brave enough to offer a view on that, and I believe it is likely the matter would have to be settled in Court. With respect, I doubt you will get an authoritative answer from our GAC representative, so I don't think that is a fruitful avenue to explore as I am sure this will be true for many countries. I really don't think ICANN should put users in the postion of having to take matters to Court to prove a point, and I believe this is where that question would have to be resolved. 2. In some countries matters relating to the domain industry might be covered under other laws than data protection law, a point that was made yesterday. Many of those laws could not necessarily be interpreted reliably until they go to Court, so I believe you are in the same situation there. The fact is, ICANN matters with respect to privacy and constitutional rights (against search and seizure) have essentially not been litigated. Are you embarking on a policy route that will ensure the matters do get litigated? 3. On the issue of enforcement powers....if I understand the argument here, some parties believe that if a DPA simply writes a letter indicating that in their opinion the requirements imposed by ICANN violate the DP law, this is not sufficient unless the official writing the letter has the power to enforce that opinion. Unfortunately, not all data protection commissioners have binding powers. Many new laws are "light touch", where states have decided to see whether organizations will fall in line with the new laws in this relatively young area of law, before loading on criminal sanctions and powers to stop commercial activity. Some DPAs are more like Ombudsmen than judges. Some DPAs have the power to take a matter to the Court to request enforcement: this is the case in Canada with the national law. You are therefore pushing end users who are aggrieved to take registrars to Court. Volker Greimann made the point yesterday that if ICANN is going to put registrars in legal jeopardy in this way, they should cover the liability. In my view, he is missing a whole area of financial risk that goes far beyond the Court costs. IF end users crowd source class action or cases for higher courts to settle this matter and stop what they might regard (rightly or wrongly, it does not matter) as surveillance, it will certainly be the registrars who pay...not just in legal costs and potential damages, but in loss of customer trust and damage to their brands. If I were a registrar, I would find this totally and utterly unacceptable. 4. Just to be clear, on the matter of whether a letter from a DPA without enforcement powers is enough.....an end user/registrant who received such an opinion would be well armed to take a civil action against the registrar in question, at least in my jurisdiction. Tort law increasingly is being used in privacy invasion cases. This would probably be cheaper and easier than fighting it through the higher courts. Damages are often higher too. 5. I don't actually understand, given what I know about how data protection law works, how this procedure could have been accepted in the first place. I would suggest that before ICANN attempts to fix the procedure, they need to consult broadly with data protection authorities. The Article 29 group sent a letter giving an authoritative opinion for Europe. Many of the DPAs who form that group are legally constrained from offering such an opinion precisely because they have binding powers.....so you have put registrars in a catch-22. ICANN will not accept a letter from a group that is mandated by the Directive that sets the standard for data protection law in Europe, because they are not actually the body that enforces law, and demands instead that authorities who have enforcement powers send them a letter. DPAs with enforcement powers are likely to be constrained from offering an opinion, precisely because they have binding powers and the status of a judge. These are matters well understood in the data protection authority community, why don't you talk to them? A cynic might be forgiven for suspecting that this Catch 22 was engineered precisely to prevent registrars from abiding by data protection/constitutional requirements, precisely because those who are familiar with DP law easily can spot that Catch 22. I fear that the letter the registrars are going to get is a summons to Court...but as I said before, I am not a lawyer and I do not pretend to understand European law. I doubt that this is helpful, but I did want to get it on the record. IF you do ask for public comments on this procedure, you may get more informed opinion. iF you don't, please don't assume that the matter ends there. Privacy advocates do not have this matter on their radar at the moment, but post-Snowden irritation with business cooperating under the table with law enforcement is at a very high level. I would suggest that you do not want 500 comments from irate global experts; it may put registrars in more jeopardy. I will turn my attention now to providing comments on the draft text. Once again, my apologies for missing this important discussion.

As far as the NPOC constituency group members are concerned, there are, but they don't view "a chance to confront the Board" as even a card in their DNS strategy deck of playing cards for dealing with the issues. >>> >>> Sam >>> >>> >>> On 2015-03-05 8:44 AM, Edward Morris wrote: >>>> Save the public forum, which I'd prefer be held even in the shorter meeting (folks in smaller cities should have the chance to confront the Board...happy with a smaller public forum at those meetings restricted to residents of the region), I agree with David's comments. >>>> >>>> Ed >>>> >>>> Sent from my iPhone >>>> >>>> On Mar 5, 2015, at 1:39 PM, David Cake > wrote: >>>> >>>>> >>>>> On 5 Mar 2015, at 9:25 pm, Sam Lanfranco > wrote: >>>>> >>>>>> Also, IMHO this is neither as bad or as complicated as it looks at first glace.

One thought that comes to mind is that NCUC and NPOC have their own meetings on CD, and might want to be represented in this discussion. This does not mean that NCSG would also not want to be represented on the SG level. NCSG has its own meetings on CD as well as the PC meeting during the traditional weekend prior to the meeting?s beginning. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Other thoughts would be appreciated. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Thanks. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Amr >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> On Mar 4, 2015, at 2:51 PM, Sam Lanfranco > wrote: >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> All, >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> I replied before I saw Glen's message with the "...invite to contribute one member". >>>>>>>>> For clarity, is that one from NCSG, or one from each of NCUC and NPOC...the wording is unclear (maybe only to me) "each Stakeholder Group / Constituency is invited to contribute one member" >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> In any event here could be a background NCSG dialogue on an NCSG/NCUC/NPOC position on the idea. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Sam L. >>>>>>>>> _______________________________________________ >>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG mailing list >>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG at ipjustice.org >>>>>>>>> http://mailman.ipjustice.org/listinfo/pc-ncsg >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> _______________________________________________ >>>>>>>> PC-NCSG mailing list >>>>>>>> PC-NCSG at ipjustice.org >>>>>>>> http://mailman.ipjustice.org/listinfo/pc-ncsg >>>>>>> >>>>>>> ********************************************************* >>>>>>> William J.

We did both attend the f2f in Singapore, though it was somewhat frustrating as some important discussions with the GAC putting forward their detailed reasons for their advice to the group had not been received in time, and we ended up breaking early. This group is proceeding quite slowly as a lot of quite complex legal discussion is involved, and we want to get it right. We are definitely still keen to get any input. Kathy is a better person than me to advice on the work of the group so far, as I?m not a lawyer.

This update attempts to address all questions raised in Singapore; you will find suggested new text highlighted in red. Three placeholders were also inserted for EP-WG members to answer unaddressed questions on cost assessment, input timing, and GNSO decision points. In addition, the entire document has been reorganized to better decompose and explain complex steps and phases, presenting them more sequentially. This reorganization is not intended to add new material, except as highlighted in red. Rather, the reorganization moves and expands existing material to make the framework easier for the community to digest. Please consider whether this updated draft covers questions raised in Singapore and does a sufficient job of communicating your proposed framework for an RDS PDP. Please also consider how to complete the three placeholders for unaddressed questions. Your feedback on this draft will be the subject of next week?s EP-WG call, along cost analysis input from James and Chris, and any other business that should addressed at this juncture. A meeting notice with agenda will follow from Charla.

This update attempts to address all questions raised in Singapore; you will find suggested new text highlighted in red. Three placeholders were also inserted for EP-WG members to answer unaddressed questions on cost assessment, input timing, and GNSO decision points. In addition, the entire document has been reorganized to better decompose and explain complex steps and phases, presenting them more sequentially. This reorganization is not intended to add new material, except as highlighted in red. Rather, the reorganization moves and expands existing material to make the framework easier for the community to digest. Please consider whether this updated draft covers questions raised in Singapore and does a sufficient job of communicating your proposed framework for an RDS PDP. Please also consider how to complete the three placeholders for unaddressed questions. Your feedback on this draft will be the subject of next week?s EP-WG call, along cost analysis input from James and Chris, and any other business that should addressed at this juncture. A meeting notice with agenda will follow from Charla.

No matter how desirable this may seem to some, it will be very impractical for community members (including but not limited to the NCSG) to keep track of everything in scope running simultaneously. We should insist on an alternative to this. Those are my thoughts. Thanks.

Whether it is a CWG or a GNSO WG, I will volunteer to be involved. avri On 12-Mar-15 08:11, Amr Elsadr wrote: > Hi, > > I?ve unintentionally neglected this discussion, but would like to pick > it up again.

You diligence in reviewing the report and providing feedback is greatly appreciated! To address concerns regarding the timeline, we have worked with Staff and Westlake to adjust the timeframe for next steps. I have attached a Word document which details the adjusted time frame and also dropped in below a graphic showing the timeline modified to respond to community concerns. *Please continue to provide redlines, letters or responses through March 20^th *, so that Westlake can take this into consideration when revising their report. You can send this through the list or post on the wiki. All comments will be provided to Westlake. When delivering the next version of the report, we have asked Westlake to be clear in stating its rationale for any comments which they _do not_ take incorporate into their report. The next version will be provided as Draft 0 and circulated on April 24^th . Please note dates for subsequent calls and meetings to respond to Draft 0 are included on the attached timeline and schedule. I hope you will agree this is helpful in providing additional time to gather and provide feedback in a meaningful way. I look forward to continuing to work with you and welcome your feedback. I wish you all a Happy Spring and look forward to talking again in May! * * * * *jennifer c.

At https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/summary-risk-management-process-23jan15-en.pdf you will find the staff?s own construction of what these risks entail. There are some areas of connection to things we?ve said here and some disjunctures. Why staff should be doing this rather than the community is a whole other question. We are supposed to provide 5. If we come to agreement on just 5 then Rafik can submit them on behalf of NCSG. If we identify more than 5 we want to highlight than NCUC and NPOC can provide additional listings. Either way, the process needs coordination. In our prior conversation, people listed the following points. 1. The first, overarching risk is if staff and leadership think of ICANN as an corporation with ?enterprise risks? rather than a community-driven global governance mechanism with global public responsibilities and associated risks. 2. There?s a risk that once the tie to the US government is severed ICANN will be found guilty of being a monopoly under antitrust/competition law in California (Cartwright Ace), the USA (Sherman), the EU (TFEU 101-109) or in some other jurisdiction. 3. There?s a risk of a lack of confidence in the domain name system as adequately protecting consumer security and privacy leading to widespread adoption of alternative mechanisms. 4. There?s a risk of over reliance on commercial gTLD profits as driving ICANNs planning and growth, leading to planning that is not focussed on ICANNs core mission. 5. There?s a risk of alternative, external, policy discussion outside ICANN community due to lack of engagement - for example, ICANNs fate being part of US congressional politics is an example of this form of risk. Please compare these to the staff list, see if there?s tweaks/additions to suggest, and we can go from there. We have two weeks.

One of my complaints about ICANN as a corporation is that it acts too much like a "walled city" and pays too little attention to what is going on with regard to its perceived remit, but taking place outside it walls. Much of its "outreach" involved recruiting engagement within the walls, as opposed to joint awareness raising, and its engagements frequently involve turf defense. As an example, ICANN is probably the best example of a multistakeholder process attached to governance. However, given the number and scope of stakeholder constituencies within the Internet ecosystem, some of the actual constituency structures within ICANN are very anemic and stand on a very thin constituency base. Given this state of affairs ICANN, again as a corporation, seems oblivious of what is going on in the multistakeholder area outside its walls. For example, there is universal skepticism around how the World Economic Forum approaches its own narrow notion of multistakeholderism within the WEF, and how it uses "expertise". ICANN ignored those concerns when it teamed up with WEF. There is a grave risk there. There are political and business players out there who go so far as to argue that some form of multistakeholder process is a replacement for democratic processes. That is most evident at the moment in the pending trade agreements where much of policy (including intellectual property and probably Internet governance issues) takes place in a non-transparent black box outside democratic political processes. I see an enterprise risk here, where ICANN is put in a box because of its association with (and silence about) collaborators who have very different takes on what they mean by multistakeholderism, how they use expertise in policy and implementation processes, and -in some cases- how they view democracy. In some quarters this leaves ICANN with a label identifying it as a self-serving elite and also leaves the non-contract stakeholder groups at risk, no matter how hard they work or dedicated they are, as been seen as part of a self-serving elite. However ICANN as a corporation responds to these corporate risks, the non-contract stakeholder groups need to respond not out of anger, but with renewed collaborative outreach. For one, making sure that there is not a wedge between multistakeholder processes and democratic processes. Sam L.

In it, I?ve tried to consolidate the excellent feedback provided from last week?s NCSG webinar. There is some text that can?t be read on page 4 of the document, so I?m adding it here. You can only find it if you save the whole document as free text. This text is particularly important because it includes a somewhat contentious issue we discussed last Tuesday. > Support of the GNSO Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) is provisional to the same > change in voting threshold being required for initiation of the process as the GGP, and for the same reasons. Additionally, Annex E #4 of the report states that "At the request of any Council member duly and timely submitted and seconded as a motion, the Council may initiate the EPDP by a Supermajority vote of the Council in favor of initiating the EPDP. A motion which fails to carry a Supermajority vote of Council may be resubmitted at the same Council meeting as a motion to > initiate a GNSO Guidance Process". In the event that a vote confirming the initiation of an EPDP > fails, it would be necessary for the voting threshold required to initiate a GGP be a supermajority > vote in favor, also for the reasons mentioned above. > > Furthermore, the NCSG believes that an EPDP should not be used to reopen a policy that had > previously been deliberated upon, and rejected. To reconvene a discussion on a previously rejected policy, an issue scoping phase of a PDP (not included in the EPDP) should be included to scope the policy issue in order to determine wether or not there are new circumstances that have been recognized that require that a policy issue be revisited and reversed. This additional criteria for applicability does not conflict with those already being recommended in Annex E of the report. For clarification, we had agreed to include input addressing this issue in the ?Principles? section of the report. I was, at the time, in agreement on this. However, on review of the report, I found this difficult to do considering that the principles are very general in their nature, and do not specifically address any of the new processes being suggested by the WG. I hope the language I added addresses this in a satisfactory manner, but please let me know if there are any thoughts to the contrary. Thanks.

Additionally, Annex E #4 of the report states that "At the request of any Council member duly and timely submitted and seconded as a motion, the Council may initiate the EPDP by a Supermajority vote of the Council in favor of initiating the EPDP. A motion which fails to carry a Supermajority vote of Council may be resubmitted at the same Council meeting as a motion to >> initiate a GNSO Guidance Process".

To reconvene a discussion on a previously rejected policy, an issue scoping phase of a PDP (not included in the EPDP) should be included to scope the policy issue in order to determine wether or not there are new circumstances that have been recognized that require that a policy issue be revisited and reversed. This additional criteria for applicability does not conflict with those already being recommended in Annex E of the report. > > > For clarification, we had agreed to include input addressing this issue in the ?Principles? section of the report. I was, at the time, in agreement on this. However, on review of the report, I found this difficult to do considering that the principles are very general in their nature, and do not specifically address any of the new processes being suggested by the WG. I hope the language I added addresses this in a satisfactory manner, but please let me know if there are any thoughts to the contrary. > > Thanks. > > Amr > > > > > On Mar 6, 2015, at 1:03 PM, Maryam

Anyone else have an opinion on this? It?s on the agenda for tomorrow?s NCSG open policy call, so we?ll probably have a few minutes to discuss it then, but would be good to start getting PC input before this. Also, in case this wasn?t clear, I had also attached a free text version of the document to my original email. It makes the text a little messy, but will allow anyone to go through the missing part in the PDF version. Thanks again.

We now have only one nominee (Rafik), and support to this nomination was provided by Sam, Ed and myself.

Many come away with a feeling that it was ritual and that all the board is doing is looking accessible..and little more. There is little evidence to counter that impression. Some come away bruised. I spent 30 minutes with the highly esteemed medical professor who "confronted" the board on .health in Los Angeles. He walked out of there bruised and confused. There of course those who confront the board as "part of their job", i.e., some commercial and non-contract people at the event, and others doing it as career capital. Fine, but it all falls short on the "voice of the local folk" part. >>>>> >>>>> This would work if we (the SG's) better engaged the "local folk" prior to the meetings and prior to the public forum. ICANN underestimates the extent to which it is a "walled city" from the outside. After Singapore I was in Bangkok and looking at DNS awareness and issues in Myanmar and Laos. There should/could have been targeted pre-Conference outreach there. ICANN has little presence there, little evidence of effort, or of any impact. Last year, in Buenos Aires, the only major local coverage of ICANN was basically a pre-conference Sunday Clarion article based on an interview with me. The CEOs local appearances are seen more as PR than outreach. For Buenos Aires this time, are their pot boiler DNS issues in Latin America? As far as the NPOC constituency group members are concerned, there are, but they don't view "a chance to confront the Board" as even a card in their DNS strategy deck of playing cards for dealing with the issues. >>>>> >>>>> Sam >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> On 2015-03-05 8:44 AM, Edward Morris wrote: >>>>>> Save the public forum, which I'd prefer be held even in the shorter meeting (folks in smaller cities should have the chance to confront the Board...happy with a smaller public forum at those meetings restricted to residents of the region), I agree with David's comments. >>>>>> >>>>>> Ed >>>>>> >>>>>> Sent from my iPhone >>>>>> >>>>>> On Mar 5, 2015, at 1:39 PM, David Cake wrote: >>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>>>> On 5 Mar 2015, at 9:25 pm, Sam Lanfranco wrote: >>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Also, IMHO this is neither as bad or as complicated as it looks at first glace. It does call for rethinking the best SG use of time, including the time leading up to f2f meetings, and we should think through both of those as we plan.

One thought that comes to mind is that NCUC and NPOC have their own meetings on CD, and might want to be represented in this discussion. This does not mean that NCSG would also not want to be represented on the SG level. NCSG has its own meetings on CD as well as the PC meeting during the traditional weekend prior to the meeting?s beginning. >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> Other thoughts would be appreciated. >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> Thanks. >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> Amr >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> On Mar 4, 2015, at 2:51 PM, Sam Lanfranco wrote: >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>> All, >>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>> I replied before I saw Glen's message with the "...invite to contribute one member". >>>>>>>>>>> For clarity, is that one from NCSG, or one from each of NCUC and NPOC...the wording is unclear (maybe only to me) "each Stakeholder Group / Constituency is invited to contribute one member" >>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>> In any event here could be a background NCSG dialogue on an NCSG/NCUC/NPOC position on the idea. >>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>> Sam L. >>>>>>>>>>> _______________________________________________ >>>>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG mailing list >>>>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG at ipjustice.org >>>>>>>>>>> http://mailman.ipjustice.org/listinfo/pc-ncsg >>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> _______________________________________________ >>>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG mailing list >>>>>>>>>> PC-NCSG at ipjustice.org >>>>>>>>>> http://mailman.ipjustice.org/listinfo/pc-ncsg >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> ********************************************************* >>>>>>>>> William J.

Having heard no objections from the rest, I will consider these comments endorsed by the NCSG. I will go ahead and send in our response in the PDF format, as well as copy and paste the answers to the surveymonkey link provided. Thanks again to all.

I shouldn?t send email last thing before going to sleep, I make mistakes. Admittedly it will be at 2am my time, so if a proxy can be organised I?d accepted it gratefully, but I will do my best to attend the meeting.

If you all recall, a PDF version of the NCSG input was circulated and presented during last week?s webinar. A later draft was circulated, in which input provided by NCSG members was added to the answers of the survey questions. This created a problem, because some of the text provided in the file wasn?t viewable because of the insufficient size of the text box. To manage this, I did two things: 1. I copied the NCSG responses to the Web-based survey to ensure that the WG would have access to them in their entirety. 2. I also sent the PDF version with the ?unviewable? text using what I believe to be a secure File Transfer Protocol embedded in the file to the public comment forum. I did this, so that there would be a readily available reference to the NCSG response that anyone could access, and also hoped that the formatting would somehow change to make all the answers viewable. I thought this possible, because there were other submissions on the public comment forum in which the formatting was different. Anyway?, it didn?t work the way I hoped, and this is what we ended up with: http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-policy-implementation-initial-19jan15/msg00003.html The WG had its first call to review the public comment submission yesterday, and the NCSG response is included in the public comment review tool, so there is no need to be concerned about our input not being submitted and considered. However, Marika was kind enough to provide a PDF extract of the NCSG response to the Web-based survey. I?ve attached it to this email. Marika and Mary, could you please arrange to have this file be listed on the public comment forum as the NCSG response to the working group?s initial report, and have the email already posted be removed. The current NCSG submission on the public comment forum appears to be nothing but random lines of code that aren?t really very helpful to anyone who would like to look them up. To be clear, I am asking ICANN Policy Staff to take an action on our behalf. There is no action required on the part of the Policy Committee, but thought it would be a good idea to have everyone on the same page to avoid any confusion. Certainly don?t want anyone to think that staff tampered with our response in any way. The attached version with the amended formatting has already been uploaded to the NCSG Wiki space as well. So thanks to all, and my apologies about all the confusion. Amr -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

At this juncture, EP-WG members are encouraged to raise any further changes to this framework that must be addressed now, before this draft is transmitted to the Board and GNSO Council. *Please raise any suggested changes to this framework via email no later than March 30th*. Charla will be sending out a Doodle poll for your next call to finalize those changes. Once this draft is transmitted to the Board and GNSO Council, a new Draft Issue Report and public comment period will follow. Please note that EP-WG members will still have a chance to review any public comments on this draft framework and make any needed revisions before the Final Issue Report is published.

I do have one question, though. The last call didn?t address the process so much as the framework the PDP would be scoped around. Is there any update on the plans/suggestions for parallelism in tackling the framework when this goes to a PDP? Thanks.
