On audio only: none
Notes/Action items:
1. Notify/advise GNSO Council that there are community concerns about this PDP progressing too quickly (e.g., GAC, ALAC, CCT Review Team)
2. Quick Look Mechanism: Staff confirmed that it was applied to all three of the most recent GNSO PDPs, including this one. See: http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gac-quick-look-mechanism-19feb16-en.pdf.
3. Go out initially to the SOs/ACs on the overarching issues, but not getting into each of the separate work items/sub groups. Move forward on those after processing the overarching issues. Issues: Could result in more comment periods, but should provide more focused responses. No objections to this approach.
4. Walk Through of Subjects/Issues -- Clarification Questions:
Work Stream 1 -- Process/Support/Outreach
a. Alan Greeberg: Was there ever a reconciliation of the money taken from the reserve? If there is a deficit does this need to be added to the applicant fees? Answers: Jeff Neuman believes that ICANN staff feels that it is still in that process. Carlos: A presentation was given to the CCT Review Team. Action Item: Get the presentation that was provided to the CCT Review Team and ask for more data if necessary/desired.
b. Jannik Skou Thomsen Trampedach: Clarification To Chairs: To what degree is this group supposed to provide "detailed" implementation guidelines rather than addresing a principle frameworks with suggestions for "things/issues" to change/implement. Example: Is job done by suggesting we need categories of strings with requirements fit for each categories ? Or are we supposed to suggested exact criteria for each category (GEOs/Brands/cultural/non for profit TLDs etc?
Answer: Jeff Neuman: Previously we provided high-level principles, but not implementation details. Perhaps more guidance is needed, but it depends on how deeply we get into criteria. Since 2007 the GNSO developed policy & implementation guidelines. Avri Doria: There is a formal procedure for doing that implementation oversight work.
Work Stream 2: Legal/Regulatory -- Clarification Questions:
a. Khaled: With whom will the registry be signed and what is the jurisdiction/controlling law? And what is the mechanism for the applicant to decide?
b. Rubens Kuhl: Can we invite ICANN Legal to join the PDP to help address these questions? Jeff Neuman: Yes, we can and it would be very beneficial to have ICANN Legal staff join. Karen Lenz and Christine Willet have also offered to help out and participate.
Action Items:
Before we start with Work Stream 3 we address any further clarifying questions on Work Streams 1 and 2.
Next meeting: 28 March at 1600 UTC.
