ALAC & Board Meeting

Agenda:

Questions from the ALAC to the Board:

1. Geographic Regions and Names:

   1. ICANN’s Geographic Regions were created in 2000 with a Bylaw requirement to review them no less than every three years. In November 2007 (ten years ago), at the request of the ccNSO, the Board initiated a community discussion on the definition and use of regions. A WG was commissioned a year later and in the ensuing seven years, a succession of initial, interim and draft reports were issued culminating in the Final Report issue in October 2015. After a 2 month delay, a Public Comment was initiated which was open for four months and attracted a total of six comments with the report on comments being issued in May 2016. It is now October 2017 and the NEXT Geographic Region Review is scheduled to kick-off a year from now. Can the Board please help us understand the delay and when we will see the report acted on?
      
      
   2. The GNSO PDP on New gTLD Subsequent Procedures is in the process of initiating a Work Track on the use of Geographic Named at the top level. We are expecting widely divergent views to be expressed and even within the ALAC and At-Large we are expecting significant diversity. Although it is conceivable that this process will result in a solution pleasing everyone, it is somewhat unlikely. The fallback of using the last round’s rules is also known to be problematic. How does the Board envisage reconciling the varying views of its SOs and ACs.

   2. Post-Transition ICANN

It is a year since the new Bylaws were put in place, and we are starting to see the CCWG-Accountability WorkStream 2 discussions drawing to an end.

Can the Board and/or its members provide feedback on how it sees the new ICANN unfolding, and what are both the high-points of this process and its results, and the low-points and concerns?

  3. Topic in Reserve: At-Large Review

Based on the status of the Review and its progress through the Organizational Effectiveness Committee and the Board, the ALAC reserves the right to raise the issue during our meeting with the Board.

Questions from the Board to the ALAC:

1. What are the key issues/topics you are currently working on?

2. What are the concerns of your Group re. GDPR and how best to mitigate?
