STATUS UPDATES
Date | Phase | Type | Status Updates |
| Closed | Phase Update | Matt Larson sent a letter to Rod Rasmussen advising that SAC070 is complete (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/larson-to-rasmussen-13jan21-en.pdf). SAC070 Recommendation 6 Notes: Recommendation 6 encouraged those parties working on universal acceptance, such as the UASG, to explicitly include the use of a PSL and actions related to a PSL as part of their work. As the UASG considered the SSAC advice in its document UASG007, ICANN notified SSAC of this recommendation's closure on 08 August 2017.|

| Phase 5 | Phase Update | The ICANN organization understands recommendation 6 of SAC070 as encouraging those parties working on universal acceptance such as the UASG to explicitly include the use of a PSL and actions related to a PSL as part of their work. On 24 June 2017, the ICANN Board accepted this advice and directed the ICANN organization to implement per the ICANN organization's recommendation (https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2017-06-24-en#2.b). Based on the implementation recommendations, IC ANN has determined that Recommendation 6 is now closed, as the UASG considered the SSAC advice in its document UASG007 (https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/56990805/UASG007-version-8-2016-05-05.pdf) | ||||
| Phase 4 | Phase Update | ICANN has implemented this advice as follows: Scorecard of implementation recommendations: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolution-implementation-recommendations-ssac-advice-documents-08jun17-en.pdf Based on the implementation recommendations, ICANN has determined that advice items 4a and 6 are now closed, as the UASG considered the SSAC advice in its document UASG007 (https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/56990805/UASG007-version-8-2016-05-05.pdf) If you do not agree that the advice is complete, reply to this email with the word NO in the first line. Please provide clarifying comments on the second line. | ||||
| Phase 4 | Phase Change | Now in Phase 4: Implement | ||||
| Phase 3 | Phase Update | The ICANN organization understands recommendation 6 of SAC070 as encouraging those parties working on universal acceptance such as the UASG to explicitly include the use of a PSL and actions related to a PSL as part of their work. On 24 June 2017, the ICANN Board accepted this advice and directed the ICANN organization to implement per the ICANN organization's recommendation (https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2017-06-24-en#2.b). | ||||
| Phase 3 | Board Update | Resolved (2017.06.24.19), the Board adopts the SSAC recommendations outlined in the document titled "Implementation Recommendations for SSAC Advice Documents SAC062, SAC063, SAC064, SAC065, SAC070, and SAC073 (08 June 2017) [PDF, 433 KB]", and directs the CEO to implement the advice as described in the document. SAC070 Recommendation 6 proposed solution: The UASG, in their comprehensive Introduction to Universal Acceptance (UASG007), already recommends that TLDs are validated, where necessary, from authoritative tables including http://www.internic.net/domain/root.zone and http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alphaby-domain.txt. In this same section of the document the UASG also references SAC070. The UASG does not recommend the use of the Mozilla PSL because the UASG does not have confidence that the Mozilla PSL is authoritative. Should it become authoritative the UASG will consider including the Mozilla PSL as a source for validation.

| Phase 3 | Phase Change | Now in Phase 3: Evaluate & Consider | ||||
| Phase 3 | Phase Update | There is outstanding work on this advice item, and it will be addressed through the BAR pilot process. ICANN staff understands recommendation 6 of SAC070 as encouraging those parties working on universal acceptance such as the UASG to explicitly include the use of a PSL and actions related to a PSL as part of their work. | ||||
| Phase 2 | AP Feedback | SSAC confirmed the understanding. | ||||
| Phase 2 | Board Understanding | UPDATED UNDERSTANDING 28 APRIL 2016: ICANN staff understands recommendation 6 of SAC070 as encouraging those parties working on universal acceptance such as the UASG to explicitly include the use of a PSL and actions related to a PSL as part of their work. | ||||
| Phase 2 | AP Feedback | The SSAC disagrees with ICANN’s understanding on 4a, 5 and 6. We offer the following explanation: Recommendation 6: please pass this message on to the UASG, and please provide communications if the UASG needs clarifications, and please coordinate this function with the UASG. | ||||
| Phase 2 | Board Understanding | The recommendation appears to recommend that a (not necessarily the Mozilla) PSL be involved in the Universal Acceptance program. It is not clear what role a PSL would play, a role would be needed before determining how to make use of the PSL. | ||||
| Phase 1 | Phase Update | SSAC published SAC070: SSAC Advisory on the Use of Static TLD / Suffix Lists: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/sac-070-en.pdf. |
