Description 

In late 2019, the APRALO Leadership Team proposed the initiation of an APRALO Policy Platform for 2020. After reviewing input from RALO members to the proposal and in light of the unexpected COVID-19 pandemic, the Leadership Team considers this APRALO Policy Forum to be a modest but useful kickstart to facilitate and coordinate ICANN policy-related discussions at a regional level.

Purpose:

The APRALO Policy Forum seeks to:

  • Facilitate informed, inclusive regional position development on issues within ICANN's remit
  • Support APRALO Leadership's participation as a regional partner to the ALAC Policy Plaftform

Membership:

Open to all APRALO members interested in ICANN policy-related discussions, by subscription to the mailing list. The membership list is published below.

Operation:

To begin with, this Policy Forum will be facilitated using this work space and the apralo-policy@icann.org mailing list which will be moderated by members of the Leadership Team and supported by At-Large Staff. The ICANN Expected Standards of Behaviour will apply.

Item: Call for Public Comments to the GNSO New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Draft Final Report

Purpose: The objective of this Public Comment period is to share the GNSO New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Working Group's draft Final Report and present draft final recommendations and implementation guidance on topics within the Working Group's charter. The draft recommendations and implementation guidance included in this report are the culmination of years of Working Group deliberations and community input that take into account input received through a number of Public Comment periods, including a survey of existing Stakeholder Group / Constituency / Advisory Committee statements from the 2012 round of new gTLDs, a set of dozens of initial questions aimed at getting input on the processes and results of the 2012 new gTLD round, as well as comments on the Working Group's Initial Report and Supplemental Initial Reports. Given that some of the recommendations have been substantively updated since these earlier reports, this draft Final Report is being published for an additional Public Comment period. While the full report is open for comment, the Working Group would like input to focus on areas that have substantively changed since publication of the Initial Report and Supplemental Initial Report and in limited instances, questions that the Working Group has posed to the community for feedback.

Current Status: This draft Final Report is being posted for Public Comment as supported by the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Operating Procedures.

Next Steps: Upon the receipt of this Public Comment period, all comments will be considered by the Working Group, which will adjust the draft Final Report as applicable.

Particular Focus for APRALO: Since the GNSO New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Working Group's Draft Final Report and Working Group charter cover a very large number of topics, and the At-Large Consolidated Policy Working Group (CPWG) has been reviewing the development of the Draft Final Report and in that process, has led to the generation of Scorecards to capture/present key At-Large feedback/comments/responses. Given that the public comment period closes on 30 Sep 2020, it is suggested that APRALO focus on reviewing and commenting on just a few topics of interest/relevance to our region, in particular, these 3 Scorecards:

  1. Universal Acceptance Scorecard v4 settled 27 May 2020
  2. Internationalized Domain Names Scorecard v4 settled 28 May 2020
  3. Applicant Support Program Scorecard v8 settled 13 Sep 2020
