>>
>> The second independent review of the GNSO commenced in 2014. The
>> Final Report of the independent examiner was published on 15
>> September 2015 (see
>> https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/gnso-review-final-15sep15-en.pdf)
>> and contained 36 recommendations in the areas of: participation &
>> representation, continuous development, transparency and alignment
>> with ICANN's future. The GNSO Council adopted the GNSO Review
>> Recommendations Feasibility and Prioritization analysis
>> (see:http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/review-feasibility-prioritization-25feb16-en.pdf)
>> on 14 April 2016 with the modification of Recommendation 21, that the
>> council recommends staff working with the GNSO to institute methods
>> of information sharing of highly relevant research related to gTLDs
>> to help the GNSO community members increase their knowledge base (low
>> priority).
>>
>> On 25 June, the ICANN Board accepted the Final Report from the
>> independent examiner, taking into account the GNSO Working Party's
>> Feasibility and Prioritization Analysis of the GNSO Review
>> Recommendations, adopted with modifications by the GNSO Council. The
>> Board adopted thirty-four (34) recommendations of the Final Report
>> (i.e. all recommendations excluding recommendations 23 and 32).
>> Furthermore, the Board requested that the GNSO Council convene a
>> group that oversees the implementation of Board-accepted recommendations.
>>
>> Per the motion <https://community.icann.org/x/BAObAw>adopted on 21
>> July 2016, the GNSO Council adopted the Charter
>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gnso-review-charter-11jul16-en.pdf>of
>> the GNSO Review Working Group and directed staff to send a Call for
>> Volunteers for the Working Group.
