Notes/ Action Items 1. Welcome/Agenda Review/SOI Review: No SOI updates 2. Feedback on Working Document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BRzHr2FxSTYHX1I8F3FHSt6Bo1cvJsKyWX8WZXRUXAo/edit -- Being developed by staff under the direction of the Work Track co-leaders. -- Intended to summarize perspectives and key points raised in Work Track discussions and on the Work Track mailing list. -- Document does not attempt to evaluate the level of consensus in support of the different ideas and positions. -- Once the co-leaders have held consensus calls, information about consensus level will be added to the document. -- Document is a work in progress and will continue to evolve. Additional content will be added as discussions continue. -- Not a public document at this time. It is for the WT 5 members to review and comment. Slide 6: Structure of the Working Document -- Change the name of the document: “Working Document Toward Preliminary Draft Report of WT5”. -- Concerns/objections about some input to the document and number of WT members expressing opinions. -- Economize on space devoted to 2007. -- Structure: The questions that we are addressing is what are the terms and conditions for removing protections, or allowing protections subject to terms and conditions. -- Document seems more like the preparation for a preliminary report, rather than a preliminary report itself. Premature to think we are in the state of preparing a preliminary report. More like a document zero. -- Troubling to hear that the policy decisions of the Supporting Organization (GNSO) charged with developing recommendations are a waste. Slide 7: Structure of the Working Document -- The high-level structure mirrors sections of the Subsequent Procedures PDP Working Group Initial Report: a. What is the relevant 2007 policy and/or implementation guidance (if any)? b. How was it implemented in the 2012 round of the New gTLD Program? c. What are the preliminary recommendations and/or implementation guidelines? d. What are the options under consideration, along with the associated benefits / drawbacks? e. What specific questions are the PDP WG seeking feedback on? f. Deliberations g. Are there other activities in the community that may serve as a dependency or future input to this topic? 3. ICANN62 Planning Update: Two Cross Community Sessions planned: -- Session 1: Monday 25 June from 15:15-16:45: Background, Progress and Timeline, Validation of Preliminary Outcomes, Brainstorm Session - Looking for solutions within the existing geographic names process -- Session 2: Thursday 28 June from 15:15-16:45: Recap of Monday Session Two Discussion Topics (TBD) -- GAC Communique drafting is on Wednesday afternoon: https://62.schedule.icann.org/meetings/699454 -- 15:15-16:45 27 June -- How will these cross-community sessions be organized and what is the format? 4. Discussion of Potential Areas of Agreement - Geographic Names in the AGB other than city names: Slide 12: Geographic Names: 2012 Applicant Guidebook -- Non-objection letter has helped a lot and not sure why we should change it. -- The Working Document is a compilation of views, not a consensus document. -- How to reconcile these views? [general discussion of views for or against consent/non-objection, as also expressed on the email list and/or stated previously] -- Third bullet on slides 12 -- the link in page 28 of the document does not resolve to the "Composition of macro geographical (continental) regions, geographical sub-regions, and selected economic and other groups" list. 5. Discussion of City Names - time permitting: Slide 14: City Names -- Don't see the logic of comparing the size of the city. -- Arbitrary thresholds for cities don't help us. Cities change/move. -- Should not be liberal in giving out pre-emptive rights. -- Import to look at the principle of being respectful of local laws and policy for what is a city in each country. 6. AOB (5 mins): None. |
