| TG2 | Technology Task Force ; | At-Large Workshop on “TOR and alternative naming mechanisms to the DNS” held at ICANN Singapore 2014

29 | The ALAC should implement an automated system for tracking topics of interest currently being discussed among the various RALOs, and accessible by everyone. | ALAC |
| TG5 |
| The TTF looking to syndicate RALO topics across all RALO wiki pages using the Confluence’s wiki capabilities. To better get content ensure regular updates from RALO chairs and secretariats in a form suitable for sharing, a template form for RALO chairs to use to standardise when submitting updatesstandardise the information collected from RALOs is being developed

31 | ICANN and the ALAC should investigate the use of simple tools and methods to facilitate participation in public comments, and the use of crowdsourcing. | ALAC; | ICANN GSE Staff |
| TG5 |
| The TTF is to review tools such as Liquid Feedback ( http://liquidfeedback.org/ ) The TTF is currently evaluating Loomio (https://www.loomio.org/) an online tool for collaborative decision-making

39 | ICANN should encourage “open data” best practices that foster re-use of the information by any third party. | ICANN Staff |
| TG5 |
| A significant amount of information produced by ICANN and At-Large over the years is already public however, its not stored in an organised way, (wikis, websites) making information hard to locate and to re-use. http://gcn.com/articles/2014/02/07/open-data-best-practices.aspx Abide to the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act Resource http://opendatafoundation.org )
