*Item 4: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - Update on the Council Committee for
Overseeing and Implementing Continuous Improvement (CCOICI) Pilot (20
Minutes)*
Over the course of several months in 2021, the GNSO Council discussed how
it could best approach the GNSO’s work that is focused on structural,
procedural, and process improvements, and specifically not policy
development. Notably, this work is impactful to the GNSO community more
broadly, and not just the GNSO Council. Given concerns about workload and
the efficacy of the approach to this portfolio of work, the GNSO Council
resolved <https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions/2020-current#202106>
on 16 June 2021 to initiate the project as a pilot and to reevaluate after
the conclusion of the pilot. The pilot consists of two areas of focus: a
review of the Working Group Self-Assessment and a review of the GNSO
Statements of Interest (SOI) requirements .
The CCOICI has been meeting since September 2021, first working on
establishing the assignment form for the GNSO SOI Task Force. That Task
Force has now been established and had its first meeting on 7 February
2022. The Task Force is tasked with making recommendations to the CCOICI
following its review of the existing SOI requirements. The CCOICI
concentrated on its other assignment, a review of the Working Group
Self-assessment requirements, starting in October 2021. The CCOICI is
concluding its work on this assignment and will provide the Council with an
overview of the proposed changes and next steps.
Here, the Council will receive an update on the CCOICI and consider any
potential next steps.
4.1 – Update on CCOICI (Olga Cavalli, Chair of the CCOICI)
4.2 – Council discussion
4.3 – Next steps
*Item 5: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - Update on GNSO Council Implementation of
Workstream 2 (WS2) (20 Minutes)*
While the CCOICI remains in pilot status, one of the projects originally
envisioned to be part of the framework was the implementation of WS2
recommendations that are not SG/C specific. In 2020, the GNSO Council
sought to better understand the specific items that it would be tasked to
complete and performed an analysis
<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/attachments/20210120/54a46f27/WS2AccountabilityRecommendations-GNSOPrioritization-0001.pdf>
(circulated
<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2021-January/024396.html> on 20
January 2021) of the recommendations and considered which might result in
tasks for the Council to complete. Since then, ICANN org has devoted
additional staff resources to help assist the community to understand which
recommendations may result in work for each of the respective Supporting
Organizations and Advisory Committees, and of particular interest to the
GNSO, each of the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies (which for the most
part, are entirely separate from work the GNSO Council will undertake).
The Council received a brief update on WS2 from ICANN org during its
September 2021 meeting. The Council will receive a more detailed update
here, to better understand the level of progress it has already made via
already completed work (e.g., the development of guidelines and templates
to support the GNSO as a Decisional Participant in the Empowered Community)
and the limited set of remaining WS2 tasks.
Here, in addition to getting further clarity on remaining items to
implement WS2 at the GNSO Council level, the Council will discuss the best
path forward to complete the remaining work (which could potentially
include the CCOICI, based on its current trajectory of work).
5.1 – Update on the GNSO Council’s Implementation of WS2 (ICANN org staff)
5.2 – Council discussion
5.3 – Next steps
*Item 6: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - ICANN73 Planning (40 minutes)*
With ICANN73 approaching, the GNSO Council will discuss its upcoming
meetings, which includes a public Council meeting, a wrap-up meeting, and
several bilateral meetings. The Council will first receive a brief update
from GNSO Support staff, then proceed to prepare for its discussions with
the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC), the ICANN Board, and the
At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC).
- GAC - Anticipated topics are likely to include the Operational Design
Phase (ODP) for the System for Systemized Access/Disclosure (SSAD, DNS
abuse, and the ODP for New gTLD Subsequent Procedures (SubPro).
- ICANN Board - The GNSO Council will have suggested topic(s) by 17
February, The Board has suggested the following topics:
- *What are your key priorities for ICANN work in 2022, how do these
priorities help achieve ICANN’s common objectives as expressed in the FY
2021-2025 Strategic Plan, and how do you see Community, Board and org
moving forward together on a way to achieve these?*
- *If any, what suggestions would you have to enhance ICANN’s
effectiveness and efficiency with regards to the process of
implementation
after adoption of a PDP or Review recommendations?*
- ALAC - Anticipated topics are the ODP on the SSAD, ODP on SubPro, DNS
abuse, and modifying consensus policy.
Here, the Council will prepare for ICANN73, including for its bilateral
meetings .
6.1 – Introduction of topic (Council leadership)
6.2 – Council discussion
6.3 – Next steps
*Item 7: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - Status Update on Select Strategic Planning
Session Action Items (10 Minutes)*
The GNSO Council completed its fifth GNSO Council Strategic Planning
Session (SPS), which took place in a virtual format in October and November
2021. The report
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2021/presentation/gnso-council-sps-meeting-report-01dec21-en.pdf>
from the SPS is available on the GNSO Master Calendar. In the Wrap up &
Conclusion section of the report, there are a collection of focus areas and
action items. While some of those action items represent ongoing
adjustments in the way the Council fill function, others require specific
activity. Council leadership would like to recognize and share some of the
progress made on two of those action items.
- Action Item 1: Council leadership to develop a first draft of a
proposed “Council Commitments” for Council consideration.
- Action Item 6: Council leadership to explore possibility to set up a
regular informal Q & A session with ICANN CEO for GNSO Council, either as
part of future SPS or intersessionally. / Action Item 12: To check on the
progress of the implementation of these action items as well as allow for
updates to be made, a post-SPS meeting will be scheduled in the 4-6 month
timeframe after this meeting*.*
- Action Item 11: Council leadership to set up an informal conversation
with Becky and Matthew to obtain their feedback on the SPS discussions as
well as their suggestions on how the Council can best engage with the ICANN
Board on this topic. Following this conversation, Council leadership to put
forward proposed next steps for Council consideration.
Here, the Council will review Action Items 1, 6, 11 and 12 from the SPS.
