3. The GNSO Council recognizes that further work needs to be done in relation to IDNs, in particular IDN variants and universal acceptance of IDNs and asks the JIG to put forward suggestions on how to deal with these issues and deliver these suggestions to the GNSO Council by the ICANN Singapore Meetings in March 2014.
2. Motion on the Final Report joint DNS stability and security analysis Working Group
Made by: Mikey O’Connor
Seconded by: Osvaldo Novoa
Whereas
1. The joint DNS Security and Stability Analysis working group was established by the participating Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees ALAC, ccNSO, GNSO and NRO to better understand the security and stability of the global domain name system (DNS) in 2011.
2. In October 2011 the ICANN Board of Directors established the Board DNS Risk Management Framework Working Group (DNS RMF WG), with the objective to oversee the development of a risk management framework and system for the DNS as it pertains to ICANN's role as defined in the ICANN Bylaws.
3. At the time the DSSA published its draft Report Phase 1 (August 2012), the DSSA went into hibernation to avoid overlap with the work of the Board DNS RMF and noted and informed the participating SO’s and AC’s that in order to reflect the changed environment and working method, the charter of the DSSA would need to be updated to reflect these changes.
4. The co-chairs of the DSSA WG have send a letter to the chairs of each of the participating stakeholder organizations to submit the Final Report and the work products contained in it (available at: http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/dssa-final-08nov13-en.pdf) .
5. The DSSA recommends the acceptance of the Final Report and further recommends that the Final Report be disseminated to the ccTLD’s for their consideration.
6. Upon adoption of the Final report of the DSSA, and notification of adoption to the co-chairs of the DSSA, the working group will be closed.
Resolved
1. The GNSO Council adopts the Report submitted by the co-chairs of the DSSA WG, as the Final Report of the DSSA WG in accordance with section 2.4 of its charter.
2. The chair of the GNSO Council is requested to inform the co-chairs of the DSSA WG of adoption of the Report by the GNSO Council.
3. The chair of GNSO Council is also requested to inform the chairs of the other participating SO’s and Ac’s (ALAC, ccNSO and NRO).
4. Finally, the GNSO Council thanks and congratulates all, and in particular the co-chairs of the WG: Olivier Crepin-LeBlond ( ALAC), Joerg Schweiger (.DE, ccNSO), Mikey O’ Connor (GNSO), James Galvin ( SSAC) and Mark Kosters (NRO) and all volunteers and staff who helped with this effort.
