CWG update & joint statement
- Chairs' Statement out of F2F (published on 23 January): https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-01-23-en
- Joint Statement published on 26 January: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-01-26-en
- CWG reponse to "Accountability Issues" Document has been sent to Avri for final check before sending
- Response is public and can be passed on
WS1 requirements : organising further work
Two groups (mailing lists are set up):
- WP1: Review & Redress (coordinated by Becky Burr).
- WP2: Community Empowerment (coordinated by Jordan Carter)
Two key deliverables for WP1 and WP2:
- Scoping document based on WS1 requirements coming out of Frankfurt
- Identification of key underlying issues to discuss such as composition, decision making methodologies (threshold, consensus, ...), standing ground, standards of review, cost, delays, ...
- When those are defined, then the group can move to developing list of questions for legal advice detailing expected requirements, and asking for proposed mechanisms, in the form "how can we... ?"
Action: send out Call for Volunteers. Please send a note to Grace if you would like to volunteer.
Legal Advice
- Legal Advice subteam also has a mailing list and has started to work based on CWG document.
- The timeline that we are working with is very aggressive. In Frankfurt, we discussed that we would get initial response from ICANN legal as we develop our questions document.
- No deviance from the path discussed in Frankfurt.,
- CCWG will attempt as an ideal to use the same firm as used by the CWG, although scoping documents will be different.
- So as not wait for the firm to be selected, or wait for the scoping document to be finalized, the first step is to ask for advice from ICANN legal team on a board set of initial questions to help the CCWG understand if it is on a useful track. This will be checked by the external firm..
Contingencies : organising further work (inc. feedback from Board committee)
- Agreed on a list of 21 contingencies. Agreed to provide additional analysis to these by responding to a list of questions, after discussion of an appropriate lists if questions.
- Request to the Board Risk Committee of the contingencies they use as part of their risk management, a communication has been received from the committee. Comparison shows a couple of items to be updates.
Next steps to answer the various questions:
- Are there existing remedies in place ? How robust are these remedies ?
- Could addressing the contingency be achieved through amending existing accountability mechanisms or is creating new ones necessary ?
- How relevant is the threat to the transition of the IANA stewardship ? ie how does the transition affect the likelihood of the threat, or the severeness of the consequences ?
Reframe the questions and ask whether contingencies from Board Risk are either in WS1 or WS2 based on our Charter.
Action: Add a specific contingency part to the communication materials that we'll edit in Singapore.
Timeline update
Berry Cobb explains timeline
40 days of Public Comment
Outreach plan for Singapore
Adam Peake presents
- Slide deck or briefing document?
- Sent a summary of mailing list discussions sent to the CCWG list
- Please let Adam know if you would like a briefing document and we'll see how we can assist.
Action: prepare a short summary and slide deck that CCWG can share during next week's meeting and use for Singapore.
Action: Adam to talk to GAC Chair and Staff Support to address timing.
AOB
- Timing of F2F in March (Kavouss)
Closing remarks
- Outstanding progress in Frankfurt, but still a lot to do in short time.
- Press on with various work groups
- Elaborate documents and build on susbstance
- Next Call: 12:00 UTC on Tuesday 3 Feb

Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (13:08) Welcome
Greg Shatan: (13:11) Well stated, Thomas.
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:12) Much appreciated !

Grace Abuhamad: (13:17) ?
Grace Abuhamad: (13:17) I also unsynced it

Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (13:20) thanks!
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:23) Will the notes reflect what Mathieu just stated? I got interrupted
Grace Abuhamad: (13:23) working on it :)
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:23) cool, thanks Grace
Steve DelBianco: (13:31) Just joined. Sorry to be late.
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:32) @Steve : Welcome !
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:33) Why is ICANN providing initial advice? I thought we were getting external advice
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (13:34) +1 jordan
Edward Morris: (13:34) +1 to Jordan. ICANN legal is certainly not a disinterested party.
Steve DelBianco [GNSO - CSG]: (13:35) Just getting on, but I hope I am not hearing that we are asking ICANN Management to comment on our draft requirements/mechanisms!
Steve DelBianco [GNSO - CSG]: (13:36) NTIA Secretary Strickling gave remarks at my panel today in Washington. See http://www.ntia.doc.gov/speechtestimony/2015/remarks-assistant-secretary-strickling-state-net-conference-1272015
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (13:36) The group consensus was to obtain external advice.
Avri Doria: (13:36) i thought we were piggybacking on the CWG legal requests. - not ICANN legal
Keith Drazek: (13:36) +1 Avri
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:36) Getting access to ICANN advice or ICANN's perspectives is going to be useful, but I have to say that great caution will be required to make sure that nothing that comes from that influences or shapes the requests for advice
Avri Doria: (13:36) obviously ICANN legal is going to be doing this as well, i assume.
Matthew Shears: (13:37) + 1 Jordan, Jonathan
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:37) @robin, did _you_ conduct a consensus call on the issue?
Rudi Daniel: (13:37) +1 Jordon
Keith Drazek: (13:38) I have no problem with ICANN legal giving its views. In fact, I welcome it. But ICANN legal should not be the gating resource. We should rely on independent expertise to validate anything we're hearing.
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (13:38) There was no agreement to utilize ICANN legal team - indeed the majority of views expressed said to NOT do that.
Matthew Shears: (13:38) Robin is correct
Keith Drazek: (13:38) Also, if done sequentially, it raises concerns about timing.
Phil Buckingham: (13:38) Jordan +1 Keith +1 what s the budget , what is the process to appoint external legal adavice
Samantha Eisner: (13:39) There seems to be a presumption that ICANN will return with inputs that are opposed to the needs of the group, but there is a possibility that the information that we provide can actually take some issues off the table (in a positive way) so that we can identify those issues that further inputs are needed on
Bruce Tonkin: (13:39) I am assuming here that the CWG on naming for IANA transition has yet to identify external legal advice?
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:40) @Bruce : correct
Matthew Shears: (13:40) correct
Thomas Rickert (co-chair, m, GNSO Council, eco Association): (13:40) There is no exclusivity
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (13:40) +1 Avri
Bruce Tonkin: (13:40) I believe the chairs of CWG and CCWG are working with ICANN staff to identify an appropriate external legal resource.
Keith Drazek: (13:40) @Samantha...that would certainly be welcome.
Matthew Shears: (13:40) @ Bruce - that would make a lot of sense
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:40) @sam, "fixation" more than "assumption"
Bruce Tonkin: (13:41) There are two steps - finding firms with a partner with the right balance of skills in non-profit governance in ZCalifornia law, and also diing a conflicts check to endure that the partner is not already advising significant companies in the industry - ICNAN as wellas major registrars and registries etc.
Keith Drazek: (13:41) +1 Bruce
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:42) @ebw - it is about avoiding opportunities for the subject of the discussion to improperly frame the discussion, from my point of view
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (13:42) It is rather frustrating that we are moving forward with a plan that the group did not support (non-independent advice)
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:43) @Robin; we are still seeking this independent advice
Edward Morris: (13:43) @Samantha. As I'm sure you are aware in politics as in life perception is often more important than reality. ICANN legal could be professional, impartial and perfectly correct in your advice history suggests some will not recognize it as such. Best to get independent external advice from the start.
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:43) but it will come very late
Phil Buckingham: (13:43) Bruce -thanks for clarification .
Becky Burr: (13:44) Does the CWG have independent legal advice with California law expertise?
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:45) not yet
Avri Doria: (13:45) not waiting makes sense. but i think there is no doubt that we also need external and that this needs to be done as soon as possible. the idea of 'if we need it' was confusing to me.
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (13:45) not yet @Becky
Thomas Rickert (co-chair, m, GNSO Council, eco Association): (13:45) Agreed, Avri!
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (13:45) agree Avri
Edward Morris: (13:45) +1 Avri
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (13:45) Sorry for the confussion
Thomas Rickert (co-chair, m, GNSO Council, eco Association): (13:45) If we need just refers to the initial exercise, not for the other track with the f"full lregal advice...
Thomas Rickert (co-chair, m, GNSO Council, eco Association): (13:45) full that is
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (13:46) Exactly @Thomas
Phil Buckingham: (13:46) absolutely Avri
Matthew Shears: (13:46) + 1 avri
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:47) i've made my comments on the main mailing list.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:47) As long as we can definitely cross-check any ICANN advice with in dependent advisors and as long as we are vigilent, I can live with this.
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (13:47) yes, it was the "if we need it" reference that concerned me. I would hate to think we have to make a case that specific advice should be challenged before seeking external advice on the issue.
Bruce Tonkin: (13:47) I would assume that to the extent that the group does get advice from the ICANn legal team - that the advice has appropriate references in law - ie the advice should be able to be indepdendently veried by checking the same sources.
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (13:48) @Robin sorry for the confussion I didn't transmit the messsage accurately :(
Avri Doria: (13:48) Bruce thee may be various competeing sources and interpretations.
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:48) @bruce, that would be the norm.
Becky Burr: (13:48) Sam - is ICANN comfortable opining on this stuff knowing that we are seeking separate legal advice?
Becky Burr: (13:49) I think this is potentially problematic
Avri Doria: (13:49) Becky, i would hope so. why wouldn't they?
Edward Morris: (13:49) I hope folks realise that on some of the questions we raise there may be no definitive agreed upon black letter law s
Bruce Tonkin: (13:49) Hopefully Avri there are only one set of laws in California :-) I guess there could e legal case law that has some different interpretations by different judges - btut hopefully any solution is not r
Becky Burr: (13:49) because they could be forced to deal with conflicting legal advice
Edward Morris: (13:50) agreement
Becky Burr: (13:50) which in turn could create some liability exposure
Avri Doria: (13:51) Yes, Bruce, that is my point, legal advice is laws of california plus legal case precendence. and interpretations may vary as well as which pecendents are indeed precedents.
Becky Burr: (13:51) there is one set of laws but i guarantee that the precendent will require careful interpretation and may support many different interpretations
Avri Doria: (13:51) Becky, does this mean that start out ass being in adverservial postion with the CCWG?
Greg Shatan: (13:52) +1 to Becky.
Becky Burr: (13:52) not sure i understand Avri.
Avri Doria: (13:52) sorry can't type 'as' when typing quickly
Edward Morris: (13:53) I've already spent a little time on WEstlaw looking into some of this, Avri - we will find some conflicting opinions on some of our major questions concerning organisational structure. Big reason we need competent, specialised external legal advice.
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (13:53) exactly
Becky Burr: (13:53) If I was ICANN's General Counsel I would want the ability to maintain the confidentiality of attorney client communications and attorney work product
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (13:54) +1 Steve
Avri Doria: (13:54) and this committee is part of the client. unless we are in an adverserial relationship.
Bruce Tonkin: (13:56) Steve - I think you are misinterpreting the meaning of that statement in the list of risks.
Greg Shatan: (13:56) There's not enough room in this chat to explain all of the reasons why legal advice on a particular question of legal interpretation under the law of a single state (e.g., California) can vary radically..
Becky Burr: (13:56) the "adversarial" positioning is confusing me. I am pretty sure that ICANN will not consider legal assistance provided to this committee to be legal advice to the corporation
Phil Buckingham: (13:56) Steve +1 alarming
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:57) That is an astonishing thing to say. Well done picking it up, @Steve.
Keith Drazek: (13:57) +! Steve, that's significant scope creep for ICANN. It's not responsiblel for implementing the NetMundial principles or a global IG framework.
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:57) icann sent us a list of enterprise-wide risks, drafted at some prior time, and not in response to the ccsg-accountability.
Keith Drazek: (13:57) Did we lose the Adobe Chat?
Greg Shatan: (13:57) Becky, I expect that this will need to be clarified when engaging counsel.
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:57) so some of the items are not useful.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (13:57) @KeithD - it does explain a number of things - the coalition, 1net, NetMundial, NMI, etc.
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:58) excited rhetoric and outrage aren't useful.
Bruce Tonkin: (13:58) My understanding of the Board at least is that we are focussed on ensuring that ICANn itself has true broad participation from the multi-stakehodler activity. Theis is why we have established offices in multiple locations etc. In any case I will take you feedback back to the Baord in Singapore to get that statement clarified.
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (13:58) Share Steve's concern - we need to see that letter reference to IG eco-system failure. ICANN is but one component in the system - an important one but there are other entities and processes. ICANN does not lead.
Matthew Shears: (13:59) As a player in the Internet governance ecosystem ICANN does have a role along with many other entities in the distributed Internet governance ecosystem
Matthew Shears: (13:59) but not the core of it
Samantha Eisner: (13:59) For analyzing the stress tests, isn't it important to state why this stress test would be settled differently if the IANA functions contract was still in place?
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (13:59) @sam: yes.
Avri Doria: (14:00) Samantha, makes sense.
Avri Doria: (14:00) but the 'deus ex machina' bachstop accountabilty mechanism will often be the answer.
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (14:00) dont think that's relevant. ianac
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (14:01) iana is impetus, not model
Edward Morris: (14:01) +1 Samantha
Avri Doria: (14:01) i.e the beleif that at the end of the day, NTIA will reign ICANN is if need be.
Becky Burr: (14:01) yes, although outside of the IANA functions context we are talking about a far more amorphous "traditional stewardship" role that applies to accountability generally
Avri Doria: (14:02) wrong reign, perhaps freudian slip.
Becky Burr: (14:02) which is why the community insisted on an accountability work stream that went beyond accountabiilty for competent provision of IANA functions
Becky Burr: (14:03) good one Avri
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:04) ICANN rukes OK (but not UK).
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:04) sorry 'rules' !
Alice Munyua: (14:04) Share concerns regarding the reference to net mundial multi stakeholder principles as widely accepted.
Bruce Tonkin: (14:06) Agreed @Mark.
Steve DelBianco [GNSO - CSG]: (14:07) @Kavous -- if all we do is to answer the question, I agree with you
Izumi Okutani (ASO): (14:08) I'm good with Kavous's suggestion. Keep the question and seperate from how we handle that.
Pedro Ivo Silva [GAC Brasil]: (14:08) @Alice - "broad consensus" was reached at NETmundial. Not every stakeholder agreed to the final Statement, but my understanding is that we have using parts of it as reference for some concepts, e.g. "check and balances". I think it is helpful to refer to that document.
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (14:09) +1 Steve. why do we keep redeligating this?
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:09) Agree with Pedro.
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (14:09) relitigating
Matthew Shears: (14:10) Isn't it actually how our propsals for WS1 and WS2 approaches would be able to account for the contingencies if they are deemed appropriate or relevant?
Phil Buckingham: (14:10) Quote does not extend to business contuinuity measures .what about LOC COI re TLD Registry failure huge financial risk
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:13) When will materials be available? We need to get all GAC members comfortably up to speed.. No pressure but....
Pedro Ivo Silva [GAC Brasil]: (14:13) +1 Mark
Avri Doria: (14:15) and we can make it full screen to see better.
Julia Wolman, Denmark, GAC: (14:17) +1 Mark. Also important that the material is easy to understand with key issues and questions for the community to consider
Pär Brumark (GAC, Niue): (14:18) +1 Mark
Keith Drazek: (14:18) 15 days prior
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:24) is there an expectation of a face-to-face meeting April or May?
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (14:24) Yes and yes
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:24) Mathieu - is that April *AND* May?@
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (14:25) tentatively yes : one to finalize proposal for public comment, one to take comments into account before submitting final proposal
Mathieu Weill, ccNSO, co-chair: (14:25) up for discussion of course
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:26) what are the green dots again?
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:26) CO approval times (10 days for this?) are potential real risk.
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (14:26) @Robin tentative f2f meetings
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:26) I see the legend now, thanks.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:27) Can this be circulated in a useful format for us to look at more closely, and can we also get a table of dates too?
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:27) yes it would be great to get this timeline on the wiki
Matthew Shears: (14:28) yes very useful
Berry Cobb: (14:28) @Mark, yes that is Risk Factor #4 "Not enough time to Approve"
Izumi Okutani (ASO): (14:28) good suggestion Robin - useful to have this timeline on wiki
Berry Cobb: (14:28) @Mark, in the prokject plan this is 3 Business weeks for SO/ACs to approve.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:29) if we have face to face meetings can one be in west coast North America (LA, or SFO, or Vancouver?) or in Asia (SG or BKK or HKG or something)? Or even Dubai? :)
Avri Doria: (14:29) there are 3 face to face meeting, or can my eye not distinguish the two types of green dot.?
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:29) Avri - we already had one
Phil Buckingham: (14:29) Berry Thanks - Jordan +1 this is a very tight critical path !
Avri Doria: (14:29) true, i sometime forgeet where i stand in relation to time.
Keith Drazek: (14:29) That's correct Kavouss, the CCWG will deliver nothing to the ICG. However, the CCWG WS1 efforts are direclty relevant to some of the work of the CWG, so the goal is to sync up those two efforts as needed, both in terms of substance and timing.
Matthew Shears: (14:30) + 1 Keith
Izumi Okutani (ASO): (14:30) + 1 Keith
Berry Cobb: (14:30) @Avri, we already had 1.....2 more are tentatively schedule for end of March and Mid-May
Avri Doria: (14:30) CWG does ot have a complete answer with out CCWG phase 1 results.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (ALAC AP Region): (14:30) exactly @kieth
Matthew Shears: (14:30) It is important that WS1 mechanisms (in place and committed to) are accpeted prior to transition
Matthew Shears: (14:31) meant "agreed"
Jonathan Zuck (IPC): (14:31) +1 Matthew, perhaps even implemented
Izumi Okutani (ASO): (14:31) I agree Matthew
Matthew Shears: (14:31) implemented would be even better
Avri Doria: (14:31) Barry, ok, thanks. so we have no high intensitity online meetings planned.
Keith Drazek: (14:31) It's also critical that the CWG doesn't design something that is contradictory or inconsistent or unecessary in light of the CCWG work. And vice versa.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:32) This is all going to take longer than people want it to.
Berry Cobb: (14:32) 40 days
Bruce Tonkin: (14:32) I am afaid so @Jordan.
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:32) Larry Strickling reminded us today that 30 Sept. isn't really a "deadline".
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:32) I would say the chances of the community "signing off" something in BA is 5%
Leon Sanchez (Co-Chair, ALAC): (14:32) True @Robin
Avri Doria: (14:33) Jordan, interesting number.
Berry Cobb: (14:33) @Avri, none yet for High Intensity, but Chairs discretion if needed.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:33) But that does not mean we should let our work lag, of course.
Alice Munyua: (14:33) very challaenging timelines especially for the GAC
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:33) @ Berry: thanks for clarification - GAC will need to be agile and work fast on turn-around.
Jordan Carter (ccTLD member, .nz): (14:34) Thanks for this presentation tho - it's great to see a chart of this graphical usefulness
Keith Drazek: (14:34) +1 Thanks Berry
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:34) yes, it is a great format for the info. thanks, Berry.
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:34) EXTREMELY useful graph and management tool. look forward to synched version with CWG - mant thnks, Berry.
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:36) is there any news on our request for a room on Saturday afternoon for an informal mtg of participants in this group?
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:38) The Sat before that is (GNSO weekend sessions)
Steve DelBianco [GNSO - CSG]: (14:38) I think we've been informing our sending organizations regularly, with links to CCWG docs. I think SIngapore constituency day gives our sending orgs a chance to tell us what they think about our path/progress
Cheryl Langdon-Orr (ALAC AP Region): (14:38) agree @steve
Eric Brunner-Williams (ebw): (14:39) please provide the meetig times in utc
Mark Carvell GAC - UK Govt: (14:40) @Adam - are you in touch with Thomas Schneider and ACIG about GAC requirements for materials BEFORE GAC reps travel mid-week to start meeting on Saturday and Sunday morning session on stewardship and accountability?.
Robin Gross [GNSO - NCSG]: (14:41) Sorry, I meant Sunday 8 February for an informal mtg - can we get a room?
