Hi,

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HxHazNZLX9l-67vnWisps6-NpBJebrGDCgg60HRlpOs/edit

I still intend to add an overall comment and the end after reviewing the
wiki files on the discussion, but for the sake of time I believe it is
better to send the google docs with the main part of the commentary.

Cordially,


elojodepajaro <https://linktr.ee/elojodepajaro>

*Item 3: Consent Agenda (0 minutes)*



*Item 4: COUNCIL VOTE - GNSO Council Committee for Overseeing and
Implementing Continuous Improvement (CCOICI) Recommendations Report on
Review of the Statement of Interest (SOI) Requirements (10 minutes)*



The GNSO Framework for Continuous Improvement Pilot was initiated in June
2021 to determine whether the framework, as outlined here
<https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/continuous-improvement-oversight-implementation-framework-29jun21-en.pdf>,
could serve as an approach for dealing with the various projects that are
focused on improvements to GNSO processes and procedures.



The CCOICI tasked <https://community.icann.org/x/NAAiCw> the GNSO Statement
of Interest (SOI) Task Force to address the following questions:




   1. Is the original objective of the SOI, as stated in the BGC WG Report,
   still valid? If not, why not and what should the current objective be?
   2. Based on the response to question 1), is the requested information to
   be provided as part of the SOI still fit for purpose? If not, why not, and
   what would need to be changed to make it fit for purpose?
   3. Are there any further measures that should be considered from an
   enforcement / escalation perspective, in addition or instead of those
   already included in the requirements?



The Council Committee for Overseeing and Implementing Continuous
Improvement (CCOICI) submitted to the GNSO Council for consideration its
Recommendations Report following its review of the Recommendations Report
submitted to the CCOICI by the GNSO Statement of Interest Task Force based
on their review of the GNSO Statement of Interest (SOI) Requirements as
well as their review of the input received in response to the public
comment forum. During the meeting in August 2023, Manju Chen presented an
overview of the CCOICI Recommendations Report

on the SOI Requirements

Here, the Council will vote on the CCOICI Recommendations Report

*Item 5: COUNCIL VOTE - Charter for Registration Data Request Service
(RDRS) Standing Committee to help inform the next steps on the SSAD policy
recommendations (10 minutes)*



On 13 September 2022, ICANN org published a WHOIS Disclosure System
(System) Design
Paper
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/whois-disclosure-system-design-paper-13sep22-en.pdf>
based
on the "proof of concept" approach outlined by the Small Team.



The GNSO Council informed the ICANN Board on 17 November 2022
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/ducos-to-sinha-17nov22-en.pdf>
that
the Council unanimously accepted the Addendum to the Preliminary Report
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2022/correspondence/ducos-to-gnso-council-07nov22-en.pdf>
(Addendum)
prepared by the Small Team and supported the implementation of the System.



On 27 February 2023, the ICANN Board directed
<https://www.icann.org/en/board-activities-and-meetings/materials/approved-resolutions-special-meeting-of-the-icann-board-27-02-2023-en>
ICANN org to ?proceed to develop and launch the System as soon as
possible?. The ICANN Board also ?directed ICANN org to continue to engage
with the Phase 2 Small Team throughout the development and operation of the
System, and ensure periodic publication of the collected usage data, once
operational".



On 15 March 2023, GNSO Council instructed
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/minutes/minutes-gnso-council-15mar23-en.pdf>
the small team to continue working with ICANN org on the implementation of
the System as well as ?provide the Council with a recommendation on the
approach and format through which, following implementation of the system,
data should be reviewed and analyzed to help inform subsequent decisions on
how to proceed with the SSAD recommendations?.



On 8 September, the small team shared with the GNSO Council the proposed
charter
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IFmCY1xEtWy7IoyM-uSYiRkzFkc0jLdM/edit?pli=1>
for a Registration Data Request Service (RDRS) Standing Committee to help
inform the next steps on the SSAD policy recommendations.



Here, the Council will vote on the charter for the Registration Data
Request Service (RDRS) Standing Committee



5.1 - Presentation of motion <https://community.icann.org/x/sYXxDg>
(Sebastien Ducos, Chair of EPDP Phase 2 Small Team)



5.2 - Council Discussion



5.3 - Council Vote (voting threshold: simple majority)



*Item 6: COUNCIL VOTE -  SubPro Clarifying Statement on Registry Voluntary
Commitments (RVCs) and Public Interest Commitments (PICs) (20 minutes)*

During its informal session at ICANN76 and the subsequent Council meeting,
the Council discussed and agreed
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/minutes/minutes-gnso-council-15mar23-en.pdf>
to
task a small team of interested councilors to review the recommendations
that the Board placed in a pending status and suggest to the full Council
how the underlying concerns that caused the pending status can be best
addressed (i.e., a limited triage exercise).

Since ICANN76, the Council SubPro Small Team has met several times and has
completed a comprehensive review of the issues chart, with Board member
input on why the Board placed specific recommendations into a pending
status. The Council discussed the main output of that triage effort, the
proposed paths forward for each pending recommendation, during an
Extraordinary Meeting on 4 May. During that meeting, the Council agreed to
further task the small team with taking interim steps (e.g., provision of
clarifying information, developing speaking points) in order to support the
Council?s dialogue with the ICANN Board on 22 May
<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=240617931>. The
Council debriefed after the dialogue with the ICANN Board and discussed
next steps.

During the ICANN77 Day 0 Session, the Council heard from the members of the
Board regarding the Board?s views on potential ?landing spots? on the
pending recommendations.

During its August meeting, the Council approved a clarifying statement for
a number of pending recommendations, though it removed text in the
Clarifying Statement relating to the enforceability of PICs and RVCs and
holding this over to a future Clarifying Statement, pending further
feedback from the ICANN Board. Additional feedback was delivered to the
small team and subsequently considered.

Here, the Council will vote on the clarifying statement relating to the
enforceability of PICs and RVCs.

6.1 ? Presentation of motion <https://community.icann.org/x/sYXxDg> (Paul
McGrady, SubPro Small Team Chair)

6.2 ? Council discussion

6.3 - Council Vote (voting threshold: simple majority)



*Item 7: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - SubPro Small Team Updated Assignment Form* *(20
minutes)*

During its informal session at ICANN76 and the subsequent Council meeting,
the Council discussed and agreed
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/minutes/minutes-gnso-council-15mar23-en.pdf>
to
task a small team of interested councilors to review the recommendations
that the Board placed in a pending status and suggest to the full Council
how the underlying concerns that caused the pending status can be best
addressed (i.e., a limited triage exercise).

Since ICANN76, the Council SubPro Small Team has met several times and has

During the ICANN77 Day 0 Session, the Council heard from the members of the
Board regarding the Board?s views on potential ?landing spots? on the
pending recommendations.

As the triage exercise is now complete, the Small Team?s assignment form
has been updated to reflect the updated assignment regarding how the
non-adopted recommendations should be handled, e.g., supplemental
recommendation, Section 16, etc. Here, the Council will hear an update on
the proposed updated assignment form.

*Item 9: Cross Community Working Group - Auction Proceeds Response (20
minutes)*



On 17 July 2023, Xavier Calvez sent a written update
<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2023-August/027220.html> on the
progress of ICANN org?s implementation of the Cross Community Working
Group?s - Auction Proceeds (CCWG-AP) Final Report.



The update noted the implementation work will result in the launch of the
ICANN Grant Program at the end of the first quarter of 2024. The program
will distribute the 2012 New gTLD Program
<https://newgtlds.icann.org/en/about/program> Auction Proceeds in line with
the recommendations, as adopted by the ICANN Board
<https://www.icann.org/en/board-activities-and-meetings/materials/approved-resolutions-regular-meeting-of-the-icann-board-12-06-2022-en#2.c>
in June 2022.

As implementation progresses, ICANN org has considered organizing a
meeting, with former members of the CCWG-AP, should any of the former
members be interested and available to participate. This will help to
ensure that implementation preserves the intent of the group?s
recommendations.

Here, the Council will discuss a response to this message. Specifically,
the Council is asked to consider if it is comfortable with former CCWG-AP
members engaging in a conversation with ICANN org or whether the discussion
should be conducted differently .

Here is the draft agenda for the NCPH day in Hamburg.

By then we need to have a clear position on the possible GNSO Holistic
Review (anything from "we are strongly against any rebalancing" to
"we don't think this whole NCPH thing is working, and we should
get rid of it"), and of course have a clear, well-prepared position
with regards to the Board Seat 14 procedure.

         **Please reply no later than Wednesday 1**1 October **2023**

         ICANN78 is right at our doorstep, and the Board and I couldn?t
         be happier about the opportunity to meet with all of you in
         Hamburg from October 21st to 26th.

         This upcoming meeting is not only a chance for us to come
         together and discuss our common interests, but it?s also a
         momentous occasion as we celebrate ICANN?s remarkable 25th
         Anniversary.

         We?re diligently preparing for the upcoming Annual General
         Meeting, and weare equally excited about the celebration that
         awaits. Rest assured,**we will share more details with you soon.

         In the meantime, I want to remind you of the positive changes we
         initiated during our time in Canc?n, which were favorably received:

         1.Tailored questions designed to cater to the unique needs of
         each stakeholder group.

         2.A blog that highlighted key takeaways from the ICANN Meeting.

         3.Summaries of bilateral sessions included in the Policy
         Outcomes Report published after the ICANN meeting.

         In the next few months, we will be suggesting additional
         improvements that we hope will enhance our partnership?s
         performance and transparency, all with your satisfaction in mind.

         Meanwhile though, it is important that we continue listening to
         your specific needs and therefore here isthe question we would
         like to ask_your_Group ahead of our joint session in Hamburg:

           * *Looking forward over the next 3 - 5 years, what are the key
             strategic?issues ICANN and the ICANN ecosystem should be
             addressing in the FY26-30?Strategic plan, and why**? ***

         We look forward to hearing your thoughts on this soon.

         We would be grateful if you could send to Board Operations
         (board-ops-team at icann.org <mailto:board-ops-team at icann.org>)
          ?the questions you would like the Board to address during our
         face-to-face meetings.?Given the finite time available for these
         meetings, please list your questions in order of priority.We
         would also appreciate getting your questions no later than
         *_Wednesday 11 October, 2023_*.

         Looking forward to engaging discussions and shared celebrations
         in Hamburg!

         Best regards,

         Tripti Sinha

         Chair, ICANN Board of Directors
