      Second-Level Reference Label Generation Rule: Armenian, Cyrillic, Greek, Latin CPWG

      ICANN has developed four additional script-based reference Label Generation Rulesets (LGRs) for the second level in consultation with the relevant script communities. This aims to improve the transparency and consistency of the Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) table review process and to facilitate the registry operations of gTLDs. ICANN org seeks for feedback from the broader community on these LGRs.


      NomComRIWG Proposed Changes to Bylaws and Standing Committee Charter OFB-WG

      Four (4) recommendations from the Nominating Committee Review require amendments to the ICANN Bylaws.

Note: NomComRIWG is the Nominating Committee Review Implementation Working Group.


      Final Report from the EPDP on Specific Curative Rights Protections for IGOs CPWG

      The ICANN Board seeks input on the GNSO Council’s June 2022, supermajority adoption of the EPDP Team’s Final Report on Specific Curative Rights Protections for International Governmental Organizations (IGOs). The inputs received will help inform the ICANN Board’s deliberations as they consider the GNSO’s adopted recommendations.


      Improved GNSO Stakeholder Group and Constituency Charter Amendment Process OFB-WG

      The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) charter revision process has been updated to reflect the continuous evolution of the ICANN community, ongoing implementation of Specific Review recommendations, and the review role of ICANN Board. These improvements will streamline charter revisions and allow GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies to continue their focus on policy development.


      Technical Check Review CPWG

      For IANA-managed zones, most notably for the root zone, a suite of technical conformance tests are conducted as part of the process of evaluating change requests. IANA expects to conduct a general community consultation on the scope and definition of these tests to inform future evolution of its operational practices. The current tests were defined based on a prior community engagement exercise.


      Initial Report on the ccNSO PDP Review Mechanism CPWG

      The ccNSO Policy Development Process (ccPDP) working group tasked with developing a review mechanism for decisions pertaining to the delegation, transfer, revocation, and retirement of ccTLDs, will publish its Initial Report to seek community feedback. This ccPDP is the second part of the third ccNSO PDP. The first part, on the retirement of ccTLD, was concluded in September 2021.
