At-Large Advice on SubPro
On 20 October 2021, the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC), together with At-Large topic leads, held a call with the ICANN Board to address its questions related to the ALAC Advice on Subsequent Procedures of 16 April 2021 ("ALAC Advice"). In February 2022, the ALAC submitted its responses. Since, we have not had any further discussion or correspondence from the ICANN Board and wish to ask:
does the ICANN Board require any further clarification on the ALAC Advice and/or the responses to its clarifying questions?
when could the ALAC expect a formal response from the ICANN Board on its advice for consideration and/or further action?
The ALAC would be open to refining its advice if that potentially allows for greater alignment with other SOACs' recommendations/advice towards a stronger community consensus for SubPro. Given this and while noting that the ICANN org SubPro ODP team is expecting to deliver the Operational Design Phase Assessment (ODA) to the ICANN Board on 12 December 2022, we also wish to ask if the ICANN Board will seek:
community input prior to receiving the ODA?
further community input after receiving the ODA?
Operational Design Phase (ODP)
With two ODPs initiated, will the ICANN Board be asking for a review of the concept of the ODP after the SubPro ODP concludes?
Will the ICANN Board be actively involved in such a review and will the ICANN community be invited to participate in such a review?
