(6) Final Report of the Freedom of Interpretation Working Group (direct wording of the resolutions)
(6.1) Support Framework of Interpretation. The ccNSO Council expresses its final support for the "Framework of Interpretation" to provide more accurate and detailed analysis of the existing policies for the delegation, transfer and revocation of country code Top Level Domains.
(6.2) Submission of the Framework of Interpretation and recommendations to CWG Stewardship and CCWG Accountability: The ccNSO Council will provide the Framework of Interpretation as an input to both the CWG-Stewardship and CCWG-Accountability working groups, with the request that the Framework and relevant recommendations from the report be incorporated into their work, including into the Service Level Agreement that will be included in the proposal for the IANA Transition Plan.
(6.3) Submission of the Framework of Interpretation and recommendations to ICANN Board of Directors. The ccNSO Council empowers its Chair and Keith Davidson, former chair of the FOIWG, to recommend the Final Report of the FOIWG to the ICANN Board of Directors, if they consider that the terms of the GAC Communiqué are compatible with such recommendation. The ccNSO Council also recommends that ICANN adopt the Framework of Interpretation and adopt the document as the specific guidance on the interpretation of the existing, applicable policies. With that in mind, the ccNSO Council recommends that certain previous documents including the GAC Principles 2000 (which the GAC has superseded in 2005), ICANN's ICP1 and News Memo 1 should be archived and considered no longer used by ICANN or IANA staff. The ccNSO Council urges ICANN and IANA staff to apply the Framework in the near future, and the Council stands ready to assist IANA staff with that work.
(7) The ccNSO Council adopted the assignment of roles and responsibilities of Council members after the workshop on Sunday 8th Feb.

ccNSO Report January 2015
- ccNSO Internet Governance Coordination Committee: At the Council meeting, I was appointed as an observer on the ccNSO IG Coordination Committee - IG issues for ccTLDs are an interest area for me and I appreciate the support of the Council for my membership of this committee;
- ALAC-ccNSO meeting in Singapore (Tuesday 10th Feb, 7.15am-8.15am). Their proposed topics include: Setting a fixed time for future meetings, CWG Stewardship: progress to date, Decision making processes, outreach efforts? and CCWG Accountability: progress to date. More details as the Council minutes become available.
- ccNSO Newcomer Webinar- 27 January @ 8:00 UTC and 20:00 UTC. To introduce newcomers to the ccNSO and ICANN world
- ccNSO Council mtg Agenda (22 January 1200UTC) to include updates on : Internet Governance Update (Jordan Carter); IANA Stewardship Transition Process (CWG-Lise Fuhr; ICG-Keith Davidson; ISTACC-Byron Holland); Enhancement ICANN's Accountability Process (Matthieu Weill); Appointment of members to the Review Guidelines Committee and of the ccNSO IG Coordination Committee; Name Collision issue; Feedback on the Top 5 ICANN Enterprise Risks for the Board Risk Committee; Council Schedule for the Singapore meeting (including meeting with ALT on Tuesday am); and Councillors' updates.
- Meeting documents from 11 Dec Council meeting available http://ccnso.icann.org/about/council/minutes.htm (minutes still to be confirmed)
- Current email discussions:
- Patrick Myles flagged in his GNSO report the topic of ICANN revenue produced by the new gTLD auctions - a CCWG appropriate?
- Chris Disspain recently raised gTLDs wanting the CWG Accountability Group to have a role in determining an Appeals process for registry operators and governments (In the case of ccTLDs) to deal with delegation and "redelegation" decisions. Don't they recognise the new policy that the Freedom of Interpretation WG (FOIWG) spent more than 3 years developing? (Cheryl to comment?)
- Olivier began the year with a request for ccTLDs who were not members of ccNSO - I raised the spreadsheet which Ron, Dev and I partially coordinated, of ALS, ccNSO and GAC members from each country. Not all countries have all 3 organisational members. RALO coordination is required to complete the details in the spreadsheet but then it would be helpful to be able to attach it to something meaningful where the information could be accessed and made useful.
ccNSO Report 15 December 2014
- ALAC staff's suggested times for the ALAC-ccNSO joint meeting are to be proposed to the next Council meeting. The suggested times are Sunday evening, or Tuesday morning (before the start of the ccNSO meeting). A proposal for a topic or topics TBC before then as well. Katrina will consult with Byron and Keith.
- ccTLD feedback is being sought for a range of topics to be considered by the Triage team for presentation to the Council. The topics are being considered include: Translation and Transliteration of Contact Information; auDA's alternative proposal to the CWG; IDN TLDs - LGR Procedure Implementation - Maximal Starting Repertoire Vn 2 (refer to https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-3-2014-12-15-en; IGO/INGO Access to curative rights protections WG; and.. Country and Territory Names within the .BMW and .MINI TLDs
- Draft ccNSO meeting schedule for Tues 10 and Weds 11 Feb 2015, http://ccnso.icann.org/meetings/Singapore52/agenda.htm
- ccNSO Council meeting held on 11 December 2014 (2am Cook Islands)
- Jordan Carter, ccNSO co-Chair of the CCWG-Internet Governance reported that due to the attention focused largely on the IANA stewardship and Accountability processes there is little action for other WGs. They are currently fleshing out ideas with other co-Chairs for their first call and a work programme, and for Singapore meeting
- CWG Accountability report by Lise Fuhr - "There seem to be concerns regarding the Independent Appeals Panel and delegation and re-delegation of ccTLDs. Furthermore the relationship between Contract co. and the Root Zone Manager has been raised as an issue too. Overall within the cc-community there seem to be concerns about the rushing of the proposal because of the deadline of January 30 and concerns about the accountability group not being on the same track since they haven’t really started yet."
- CCWG use of Country and Territory Names - the co-Chairs of this CCWG requested the ccNSO and the GNSO councils not to object to the submission proposed by the CCWG as part of the public comment process of the GAC sub-group on Geographic Names. The council agreed to not object.to the statement stating t the use of country and territory names in new gTLD strings. The submission is as follows:
Dear GAC Sub-Working Group,
We are writing to you on behalf of the Cross Community Working Group (CWG) on the use of Country and Territory Names. The intension of this input is to direct your attention to the on-going work of this CWG as we believe a constructive exchange between your group and ours will contribute to our respective deliberations and also be beneficial to the wider community by facilitating the development ofcomplimentary policies. The CWG is open to members from all SO/ACs and we would therefore encourage members of the GAC sub-Working Group to join our effort. A broad membership will ensure that the CWG drafts a practical, feasible and workable policy framework that will lead to an effective policy, which will hopefully be acceptable to all Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and serving the interest of all of ICANN’s stakeholders.
We would like to take this opportunity to clarify the scope of the CWG, as it diverges from the GAC’s Sub-working group for protection of geographic names in next rounds of new gTLDs, and we feel it is important that both you and the wider community are aware of these differences. The CWG has been chartered to reviewthe status of country and territory names under current ICANN policies, guidelines and procedures. Furthermore, the CWG has been asked to provide advice regardingthe feasibility of developing a consistent and uniform framework – for country and territory names as top-level domains – that could be applicable across the respective Supporting Organization and Advisory Committees. Finally, should such a framework be deemed feasible, the CWG should provide detailed advice as to the content of said framework.
We would like to stress that our work is limited to representations of names of countries, territories and their subdivisions listed on or eligible to be listed on theAlpha-2 code International Standards for country codes and codes for their subdivisions (ISO 3166-1). All other geographical indicators are considered out of scope. Moreover, our work is limited to top-level domains; second or other level domains are also outside of the scope of the CWG’s work.
Based on the specificity of our mission, we feel it appropriate to point to the far-reaching scope of your Report on ‘The protection of geographic names in the new gTLDs process’. According to the Final Report of the ccNSO Study Group (ccNSO Study) on the Use Country and Territory Names developing a comprehensive list of all geographic names, as you propose, could lead to more impracticalities than benefits, not least because of the ‘incredible level of complexity associated with any attempt to definitely categories country or territory names, especially when such an effort includes multiple languages or scripts.’
1 The goal of the CWG is to provide a framework for policy development across the country code and generic top-level domain space. Consequently, we are cautious about the proposal of the GAC Sub Working Group to amend the Applicant Guidebook prior to the conclusion of the CWG’s work, as there could be eventual conflicts that might affect the implementation of any effective policy regarding country and territory names as top-level domains. Furthermore, we would strongly advocate coordination of the work of our respective groups as much as possible to avoid discordant recommendations. Please note that our CWG has been chartered by the GNSO Council and the ccNSO Council
2 its membership includes participants from the ccNSO, GNSO, ALAC and the GAC. The ccNSO and GNSO Councils have both been made aware of thiscommunication effort; however, it is important to emphasize this does not represent a formal position of either Council.
In addition, we consider it beneficial to convene a joint face-to-face meeting between the GAC Working Group and our Cross Community Working Group during the forthcoming ICANN 52 Meeting in Singapore. We would suggest a working lunch meeting on Monday, 9 February 2015 and hope this aligns with your agenda. Of course, we would be very happy to consider any alternative time you might suggest.
We hope that you will find our comments useful to your work and are optimistic that this marks the beginning of a fruitful work relationship between our respective groups. We remain at your disposal for any questions or clarifying follow-ups you might have.
Yours sincerely

ccNSO Report 18/11/2014
- Thomas Rickert is the new GNSO liaison to the ccNSO
- Documents delivered in preparation for the ccNSO Council meeting 20 Nov 1200UTC: ALAC Liaison Report, cNSO Activity Update, CCWGCharter
- With Don Hollander's resignation as General Manager of APTLD, their Board is advertising through the ccNSO system for a replacement.
- ccNSO have a Secure Email Communication for ccTLD Incidence Response (SECIR) working group that is looking at a working version of the SECIR services online as soon as possible. The SECIR services will be based on DNS-OARC’s OPS-Trust platform, as proposed to and approved by the community at ICANN51 in LA
(01/11/2014)
Regional organisations have sent out a survey to ccTLD managers - members and non-members - to provide the CWG reps with as wide a view as possible on their expectations of the IANA stewardship transition and how IANA should be structured in the future. A webinar is taking place on Tuesday November 4th at 8 - 9 AM UTC (Adobe Room: https://icann.adobeconnect.com/cwg-istp/) to provide an overview whats currently happening and to give everyone some background to the survey and allow for questions. Current discussion on the ccNSO email list have raised several questions already from the community which will add grist to the mill.
the Council voted for a Co-Chair for the Drafting Team Charter of the ccWG Accountability - Mathieu Weill (.FR)
Although a meeting evaluation for the LA meeting was taken, the results are unfortunately as individual responses rather than an aggregated analysis which would have been interesting. ALAC doesn't seek an evaluation from its members of what went well, and what could be improved at face-to-face meetings. Could be something to look at.
Because the session on Universal Acceptance was on at the same time as the Council meeting, Don Hollander provided a report which included some important issues for the ccNSO.
There was an action item for the ccNSO council to make sure that papers that it has approved are monitored on a regular basis as they flow through the rest of the ICANN community.
- ICANN has started development work on a roadmap with some ideas, but no execution.
- Their plans include:
- Developing some presentation decks and related collateral that different members of the community can use locally.
- Going to software development conferences to raise the issue.
- Planning for a help-desk where problems associated with Universal Access can be received, recorded, and forwarded to the relevant party.
- None of these initiatives are actually in place.
- Mozilla has maintained a Public Suffice List for some time. This list is used by many applications to validate top and 2nd level domain space. IANA appears to be providing a CSV file with a copy of TLDs for validation. While ICANN update this four times a day, Mozilla – which maintains the Public Suffix List through a volunteer effort – keeps their file update once a month or so as volunteer time becomes available.
- The JIG report, which was a cooperative agreement between the ccNSO and the gNSO, remains unadopted by the Board.
- A comment was made that ICANN was looking to raise Universal Acceptance to the same level as IPv6 and DNSSEC, yet both those initiatives have been underway for nearly two decades.
- There is a group outside of ICANN who are keen to see Universal Acceptance sorted and APTLD will be building a ‘coalition of the willing’ to identify paths to solution – with a possible meeting in Morocco in conjunction with ICANN52.

4. Cross-Community Working Group on the IANA Stewardship Transition - The Chair noted that theGNSO had adopted the charter of the Cross-Community Working Group on the IANA Stewardship Transition, that the ALAC is in the process of selecting members, that SSAC about to call for volunteers and that the GAC had expressed interest to participate in this group. He further noted that he had written a letter with the GNSO chair Jonathan Robinson suggesting that the timeline that had been set for this group was unrealistic. He also noted that he would initially act as interim co-chair together with Jonathan but that the intent is to select another ccNSO co-chair once the group has been formed. He finally noted that observers had been given a significant status in the group, and even though they would not be able to vote they would be welcomed participate actively in the work of the group. He encouraged anyone interested in this work to join as an observer. The Chair noted the receipt of a letter from Peter Van Roste urging the Council to be inclusive and transparent in the selection process of the Working Group members and suggested that instead of the Council selecting all candidates, the regional managers could come together and chose one of the five. The Council agreed that the selection meant to be made on the special Council meeting the same day should focus on selecting four of the candidates whilst the fifth candidate would be presented by the Regional Organisations within a few days, and that no final Council approval of the fifth candidate would be necessary. Lesley Cowley suggested that the Council and the Regional Organisations could have a separate discussion on to improve collaboration in the future. Peter Van Roste welcomed the suggestion and noted that the Regional Managers would do their best to put forward a candidate within the next few days. Peter also agreed with Lesley’s suggestion and noted that some work in this respect is already ongoing.

He noted that the next face-to-face meeting would take place during the Los Angeles meeting and that observers are welcome to join the meetings. He further noted that a request for proposals for the IANA Stewardship Transition had been issued by the group. He noted that the deadline for submitting proposals, 15 January 2015, could be difficult to keep in some cases. Keith noted that he would submit a more fulsome written report on the progress of the ICG on the Council email list. Don Hollander suggested that the ICG should also look at administrative issues. Keith welcomed Don to raise this issue with the group at the Los Angeles meeting. Action 98-05: Keith Davidson to provide a written report on the progress of the ICG on the Council email list, including links to various important documents.
7. Update ccNSO Coordination Committee - The Chair reported that the members of the coordination group would be appointed ex-officio.

ccNSO Activity Summary - August 2014
*(26 Aug) NOTE: There is concern being raised in ccNSO Council emails about ccNSO only having one seat on the Accountability Coordination Group (while gNSO gets 4). It is viewed as a very top-down approach and the appointment process of the experts group is also worrying. They are interested in other SO/AC views. Evan?
1. Notes from the ccNSO meeting held 21 August 1200UTC (no meeting in July)
a. ccNSO Council Elections 2015.
Councillors whose term concludes in March 2015 include, Vika Mpisane (Africa), Young Eum Lee (Asia Pacific), Katarina Sataki (Europe), Margarita Valdes (Latin America), and Byron Holland (North America). The ccNSO has appointed an election manager for the ccNSO Council Election Process 2015.
b. ccNSO Board member selection
The seat is currently held by Mike Silber who term ends in 2015. An election manager has been appointed for the ccNSO Board Election Process 2015. One member asked if candidates for both elections could be questioned by the members before the election. Byron confirmed that this would encourage robust dialogue so that the process is more useful to its community.
c. ccNSO member to the NomCom
The ccNSO appointed Juhari Juselius for another term on the NomCom.
d. Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions
The ccNSO resolved to adopt the charter for this ccWG including a friendly amendment that has been attached. Byron is to inform the chairs of the other SOs and ACs. There was quite a bit of discussion about whether it would be possible for a ccTLD which was not a member to take up one of the 5 seats offered to the ccNSO. Byron explained that there will be a selection process but even if non-member ccTLDs are not selected for the formal seats, that they can still participate as observers, and there will be other mechanisms that will also enable them to participate, such as via a webpage and World email list. ccTLDWorld@ICANN.ORG which the staff will establish. The Council will select its five members at its next meeting.
e. Council Coordination Group on IANA Stewardship Transition
The Council adopted the charter as proposed for the creation of the IANA Stewardship Transition and Accountability Coordination Committee. ccNSO staff will create a webpage and other means to encourage engagement of the broader ccTLD community in the two processes.
f. Email vote for candidate for ICANN leadership training.
Because of the delay in getting a quorum at the Council meeting, the 90 minute limit was reached before all matters could be discussed. The selection of the two candidates for the ICANN leadership training will be voted on by email.
g. Date of next ccNSO Council meetings
- 25 September 1200UTC
- 15 October 1500 Local, Los Angeles time
- 20 November, 1200UTC
2. Meeting between ALAC and ccNSO in Los Angeles
Because of lack of time at the Council meeting, it was decided that Ron, Katrina and I will coordinate logistics and content for the next group meeting. This is still being finalized via Heidi and the staff. Content wise, possibly a presentation of IANA perspectives, as well as an update on the ALAC-ccNSO joint database project proposed at our last meeting.
3. ALAC-ccNSO Joint Database project
Discussions with Dev and Ron about progress updates relating to the ALS-ccNSO-GAC coordination for each country which is a member of any of these organisations. The current spreadsheet is listed on https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q8OAE8PcV4pwW05PwfXxfd4Rf06T_QYxL0qH745YZYU/edit?usp=sharing with an expectation to deliver the LACRALO model of coordination as @ https://community.icann.org/display/lacstrtgy/Existing+ICANN+Stakeholders+from+LAC+region
4. ccNSO WG on Country Names
I listened to the recording of the last meeting held by the group on 15 July which was mainly an introduction to the previous WG output which was the report on the Use of Country and Territory Names. Cross-Community Working Group on Use of Country/Territory Names Transcript

ccNSO Liaison Report for ALAC - July 22
The period since London has been taken up with the selection of the Coordination Groups members. Fortunately the robust process used by the ccNSO (outlined below) prevented any arguments raised by a non-member about their non-representation in the final Coordination selection. The selection of the final four was made by a multilateral group of ccTLD managers, including a non-ccNSO member. Apart from that, things have been fairly quiet. The monthly ccNSO Council meeting was cancelled. A survey was sought from members about their favourite session. The results are here.
The London meeting began with the Joint ALAC-ccNSO Leadership meeting (Report is below) where the main action item that resulted from this was the establishment of a database by Dev, Ron and myself linking ALSes with their ccTLDs. This database could be extended later to include GAC representatives as well. A start has been made on the database. During the London meeting I attended the first day of ccNSO presentations but unfortunately was ill on the second day and missed the ccNSO council meeting. The resolution below was the Councils initiation into the Coordination Committee selection process which resulted in the final decision (Report from the ccNSO Selection Committee on IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group) on 11 July.
London ccNSO Meeting Day Two - Draft Resolution from the ccNSO Council meeting - Weds 25 June
The ccNSO Council resolves to establish a 5 members Selection Panel to select the 4 members on the IANA Stewardship Transition Process Coordination Committee. At least 4 of the members of the selection committee shall be from the ccTLD community. The selection committee will include at least two members of the ccNSO Council, including its chair, one member of a Board of a regional TLD organization and one non-ccNSO member. Its task is to review the applications and select the 4 ccTLD members of the Coordination Committee to the ccNSO Council by (date to be determined) prior to a special meeting of the ccNSO Council on (date to be determined). In its review and selection, the committee will take into account and be guided by the criteria for selection included in the call for nominations.
The chair of the ccNSO is requested to seek members and nominate the members of the selection committee as soon as possible and send it to the Council for final approval by 26 June noon UTC. Interviews of candidates may be conducted. Members of the Selection Committee are not eligible as candidates for the Coordination Committee
London cNSO Meeting Day One - Tuesday 24 June 2014
Board meeting
- Update of Framework of Interpretation WG Delegation and Revocation Paper (final ? meeting on Thursday). Paper interprets existing policies and guidelines although it recognises that there are things not covered by this framework. The GAC has been involved since the group began (6 years ago). The Board Chair strongly recommended that people are made aware of what is in the report (Possible ALS training/webinar?)
- Other matters discussed related to strategic and operational planning; and the next steps IANA Stewardship Transition Process and Enhancement to ICANN's Accountability Process.
Internet Governance
- Several speakers presented IG in relation to ccNSO activities - a primer for ccTLDs on IG and the ITU (.ca); IG for sustainable development (.cn); and the Impact of Free Trade Agreements on Internet Policy in Latin America.
- A panel of speakers were interviewed about their perspectives on enhancing ICANN's Accountability Process. The panel included a ccTLD manager, and representatives from Verisign, RIPE, ICANN and ISOC
GAC meeting
- Heather and Byron shared their group's contributions to the IANA Transition process. Because the ccNSO is creating a cross-community working group to inform the process, Byron invited the GAC to be a member of this group. Heaither explained that the GAC is deciding as to whether they need to contribute to the Coordination Group, but are prepared to provides some comments as inputs to the paper that the ccNSO is producing.
- A member of the GAC asked if a ccTLD that was not a member of the ccNSO would be offered a seat on the Coordination Group. Byron assured them that the members selected would meet geography and skills criteria.
ALAC/ccNSO Leadership Meeting - Sunday 22 June 2014
Discussion focus areas:
identifying and strengthening opportunities for collaboration between the ALAC/At-Large and ccNSO communities
- identifying immediate, medium term and long-term activities
- possible individual ccTLD and local ALS cooperation
Action items:
- Short Term - Ron, Maureen and Dev to work on a database matching ccNSO members and ALSes and sharing data
Other possible activities:
- ICANN database offering IANA information in a more enduser-friendly access to information about ccTLDs, contact details in case of complaints, etc
- a survey of ALSes to identify what they know and what they would like to know about ccTLDS and how they work
- an education programme that will enhance ALS (160+) understanding of what ccTLDS (150) do and how they might be able to collaborate
Discussion:
- Because each ccTLD works independently, based on their own laws and legislation, ccNSO is not involved in universal policy development (cf ALAC)
- Their independence of each other, based on their own setups, creates a non-competitive organisation which encourages the sharing of best practice.
- Agreement re: consolidating information about ccTLDs and making this information more accessible and useful for end-users.
- Beran sought advice re redelegation process. FOIWG paper on delegation and revocation- even after 5 years still not ready for publication - advised to check with Becky Burr and Cheryl Langdon Orr.

ccNSO Report to the ALAC - 27 March 2014, Singapore
1. The joint meeting of the ALAC and ccNSO Council was held on Monday March 24. Olivier and Byron were delayed at an ICANN meeting regarding IANA, Katrina and I began the meeting, and then provided the participants with the overviews of our respective organisations. There were seen to be some commonalities that we can work on for the future, and these will be raised in future meetings of the coordinating committee (Katrina, myself, Cheryl and Ron). The time factor involving unforeseen circumstances did not allow for our planned discussion about internet governance but as the ICANN meeting has been overrun with this as a topic, it did not seem necessary by either group.
2. Unfortunately the Tuesday March 25 ALAC schedule was quite busy with important topics which kept me from the ccNSO programme, which included:Working Group updates: FOIWG; ICANN Meeting Strategy ; Name collisions; Internet Governance Sessions: NTIA Updates; Developments in Asia (with presentations from China, Korea and Singapore; and an interesting multistakeholder panel on perspectives related to the globalisation of IANA which I did attend); Meetings with external groups : ICANN Board, GAC, IANA and NomCom.
3. On Weds March 26, I was able to attend a programme that was packed and interesting.. and included:
a) Security: Patrick's presentation was as per the ALAC version; An update on the survey related to a Contact Repository - which would deal with major DNS incidents relating to ccTLDs - would be quite expensive to run; Ryan Tan presented on how .sg is dealing with identity theft; The NZ internet Task force (NZITF) - Barry Brailey - a not-for -profit working on improving cybersecurity - $50 membership fee - they organise workshops as well as draft guidelines and support research - and participate in NetHui (invite to PacINET?); Result of malware mining in national domains (a survey in Russia). Interesting bit- Whowas? which gives information about identified malware domains.
b) ccTLD News from: Finland esp the government's proposal to develop a Information Society Code; Calzone.org which tracks calendar information about any TLD applications from the time they are registered with ICANN;where are they sitting in the registration process?; CNNIC has become national hub of TLDs in China in the new gTLD era (Sun Xiantang). interesting bits - 18.44 million domain names in Chinese market; 10.83 million are registered with .cn; 74.17million on IPv4; CNNIC is involved in outreach - growing information about ICANN, also in internet governance research and keen to collaborate and share research findings;Growth through building a brand (.co - Crystal Peterson) 28k registrations in 2010, now 1.6m registrations; Business strategy based on creating awareness; building relationships with customers; .co membership (engaging with partners and business customers - with access to webinars, events, etc);.nz Marketing (Jay Daley):explained the strategy used to promote the .nz brand
c) Regional Organisations Updates: AFTLD - Africa internet Summit in May; planning to build an observatory for ccTLDs; and to hold a Domain Name Summit; APTLD - focus is on education, information and advocacy; also including DNSSEC deployment, justice sector engagement, security; IDNs, market development, registrar relationships; internet coordinator and training coordination. Mtg schedule; Malaysia last month; Oman - May 11-14; India - August; Pacific - Brisbane, September; Unfortunately I missed the other updates due to a meeting with my mentee, Gunela Astbrink.
4. ccNSO COUNCIL MEETING - 4-5pm March 26 (summary)
- New ccTLD member introduced to ccNSO - Indonesia (.id)
- IANA Functions Transition Process - a draft statement will be circulated to the Council prior to the public Forum meeting; it was moved that a Process Coordination Committee be formed consisting of Byron Holland, Keith Davidson and Becky Burr to coordinate the ccNSO efforts to participate in the IANA Functions Transition process and to coordinate the ccNSO with other efforts aimed at including the broad ccTLD community in the process. Other members of the ccTLD community may be invited to participate in the work of the committee. (voted on and passed)
- Closure of the Joint IDN Working Group (JIG) and Next Steps for Certain IDN-related issues. This group was chartered by the ccNSO and the GNSO Councils in 2009 to discuss issues of common interest to the two supporting organisations in relation to Internationalised Domain Names (IDNs), in particular, IDN top-level domains (TLDs). The charter was extended in 2010 after the adoption of the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Implementation Plan. The JIG found three issues of common interest - single character IDN TLDS, IDN Variant TLDs and Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs. The JIG was tasked to deliver suggestions on how to deal with these issues for the Singapore meeting. The ccNSO Council decided that due to the ongoing community work at ICANN on these issues, the JIG may now be closed, but that the ccNSO Council will continue to monitor the various community-based efforts to resolve the issues raised by the JIG and evaluate the need for further policy or policy related work on a periodic basis. (voted on and passed)
- Adoption of a charter for a Cross Community Working Group - to develop a framework of Operating Principles for future Cross-Community Working Groups. Becky Burr was appointed as the ccNSO liaison to the CWG that will develop the final framework. Next steps may include a call for volunteers for the CWG. (voted on and passed)
- Adoption of a charter for a Cross Community Working Group - to develop a framework for the Use of Country and Territory Names as TLDs (UCTNWG). Following on from the ccNSO Study group on the Use of Names for Country and Territories published in Sept 2013, a recommendation of the study group was to further review the current status of representations of coutnry and territory names, as they exist under current ICANN policies, guidelines and procedures. The ccNSO Council proposed that the WG include participants from other SOs and ACs. Paul Szyndler was appointed as Interim ccNSO co-Chair to the CWG to advise on the feasibility of a framework and to develop such a framework if deemed feasible (voted on and passed)
- Election Review Committee Final Report - The Secretariat is requested to look into the possibilities of developing a new voting system; to update ccNSO election guidelines relating to the nomination process; and to continue its activities on awareness raising campaigns (voted on and passed)
- Council Updates (Keith): Members should read through the script on NCUC's Friday meeting for some good background on the IANA topic; Meeting Strategy working group completed work; FOIWG winding up; NETMundial - ccNSO should continue with its membership; ICANN Learn update (Hong); Regional updates (were part of today's programme); Liaison updates (none available as yet)
8. Election of ccNSO Council Officers: Byron Holland was re-elected as the Chair of the ccNSO Council; Vice Chairs - Katrina Sataki and Keith Davidson; Roles and Responsibilities of Councillors - the assignment of tasks were adopted; Roelof Meijer was thanked for his work on the Council. Nigel Roberts is the new Council member
9. Date of next meetings: 7 April 1200 UTC, 22 May 1200 UTC and 25 June 1600 local London time
5. Cross-Community Working Group to develop a framework for the use of Country and Territory names as TLDs. An impromptu introductory meeting was held on Thursday 8am. The purpose was to provide some background for those who may not have been involved in the original study, and to set a timeframe for the appointment of cross-community representatives to the working group, ALAC has already appointed their reps (liaisons to the ccNSO who were part of the original study group) and the gNSO say that they can get their representatives selected soon. ccNSO will have to wait until the next Council meeting to confirm its reps, so that it is assumed that the next meeting of the group will probably not take place until just before London.
ccNSO Report to the ALAC - 25 February 2014 1500UTC
1. As you can see below, the ALAC-ccNSO Coordination Team has met and established a schedule of events for our joint meeting, which will held on Monday, March 24, This will be a lunch time meeting and the main focus will be on creating some understanding about each other's organisational structures, roles and responsibilities. Also to look at whether there is any overlap within our communities.
2. There were two FOIWG meetings but I was only able to make one of them. The focus of the first meeting (on Feb 6, below) was the discussion of ALAC's feedback to their Revocation Report. Very briefly, they believed that most of ALAC's queries were outside of the brief of the working group because we tended to ask about issues relating to the way that IANA operates which is not this WG's function ..

ccNSO Liaison Report to ALAC - FOIWG Meeting Feb 6
Of particular interest to the ALAC was the discussion about the ALAC statement on the Revocation report
The WG acknowledged the ALAC's positive response to the report. There were four areas that were highlighted for discussion by the WG.
- ALAC's suggestion for the FOIWG to clarify the type of "independent body" (in 4.3.7.3.) that would qualify for the appeals process in the case of revocation
- The WG understands this to be an implementation-operational detail that should be dealt with in accordance with national laws, involving local stakeholders and the rights expressed within the existing ccTLD Registry (refer 2.2.1), and therefore beyond the scope of the WG.
- ALAC's request that IANA maintain reports on cases of re-delegation etc .
- Any IANA functions contract implementation issues or procedures relating to this contract, are also outside of the scope of the WG (refer Section A. Introduction and Objective)
- The reference in the ALAC Statement recommending factoring the GAC Principles into guidelines relating to situations relating to revocation where the IANA operator is required to work with local governments to ensure that the ccTLD continues to operate efficiently, until a replacement manager takes over.
- Although GAC principles are not binding on managers, the FOIWG executive is looking into further clarification of this area.
- ALAC noted concern about whether the IANA operator is empowered to act where there is a case for revocation from a local government, backed by local law, but where there are no operational or behavioural issues on the part of the incumbent ccTLD operator.
- This scenario is beyond the scope of the WG. This is an internal issue and there is no policy statement in RFC1591 relating to this situation, RFC 1591 states " the IANA tries to have any contending parties reach agreement among themselves, and generally takes no action to change things unless all the contending parties agree; only in cases where the designated manager has substantially misbehave would the IANA step in." (refer to 2.1.1)

5) Final Report joint ccNSO-GNSO IDN Working group
Background (presented by Young Eum)
The JIG (Joint ccNSO/GNSO IDN Working Group) was formed by mutual charters between the ccNSO and GNSO councils, and extended (ccNSO: http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/minutes-council-23aug11-en.pdf | GNSO: http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/#201107) to complete its work on the 3 identified issues of common interest between the ccNSO and GNSO.
One of those issues concerns Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs. The JIG published its Draft Final Report on Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs for public comment which closed on 16 August 2013, http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/idn-tld-acceptance-final-25jun13-en.htm). The JIG reviewed the comments received and finalized its report accordingly. The JIG submitted its Final Report to the GNSO Council on 17 November, http://ccnso.icann.org/announcements/announcement-18nov13-en.htm.
Draft resolution: (passed)
The ccNSO Council adopts the JIG Final Report on Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs and its recommendations and will submit it to the ICANN Board for its consideration.
The ccNSO Council thanks the JIG for its work, with special thanks to Jothan Frakes for his contributions in proactively reaching beyond the ICANN community to address issues identified in the report.
The ccNSO Council recognizes that further work needs to be done in relation to IDNs, in particular IDN variants and universal acceptance of IDNs and asks the JIG to put forward suggestions on how to deal with these issues and deliver these suggestions to the ccNSO Council by the ICANN Singapore Meetings in March 2014.
The ccNSO Council requests its chair to inform the chair of the GNSO of the decision of the ccNSO, and the co-chairs of the JIG accordingly, and submit the report to the Board of Directors of ICANN together with the chair of the GNSO, when the report of the JIG is adopted by the GNSO.
6) Final Report joint DNS stability and security analysis working group
Background (presented by Byron)
The joint DNS Security and Stability Analysis working group was established by the participating Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees ALAC, ccNSO, GNSO and NRO to better understand the security and stability of the global domain name system (DNS) in 2011.
In October 2011 the ICANN Board of Directors established the Board DNS Risk Management Framework Working Group (DNS RMF WG), with the objective to oversee the development of a risk management framework and system for the DNS as it pertains to ICANN's role as defined in the ICANN Bylaws.
At the time the DSSA published its draft Report Phase 1 (August 2012), the DSSA went into hibernation to avoid overlap with the work of the Board DNS RMF and noted and informed the participating SO’s and AC’s that in order to reflect the changed environment and working method, the charter of the DSSA would need to be updated to reflect these changes.
The co-chairs of the DSSA WG have send a letter to the chairs of each of the participating stakeholder organizations to submit the Final Report and the work products contained in it (available at: http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/dssa-final-08nov13-en.pdf) . The DSSA recommends the acceptance of the Final Report and further recommends that the Final Report be disseminated to the ccTLD’s for their consideration.
Upon adoption of the Final report of the DSSA, and notification of adoption to the co-chairs of the DSSA, the working group will be closed.
Draft resolution (passed)
The ccNSO Council adopts the Report submitted by the co-chairs of the DSSA WG, as the Final Report of the DSSA WG in accordance with section 2.4 of its charter.
The chair of the ccNSO is requested to inform the co-chairs of the DSSA WG of adoption of the Report by the ccNSO Council.
The chair of ccNSO is also requested to inform the chairs of the other participating SO’s and Ac’s (ALAC, GNSO and NRO).
Finally, the ccNSO Council thanks and congratulates all, and in particular the co-chairs of the WG: Olivier Crepin-LeBlond ( ALAC), Joerg Schweiger (.DE, ccNSO), Mikey O’ Connor (GNSO), James Galvin ( SSAC) and Mark Koster (NRO) and all volunteers and staff who helped with this effort.
7) Final Report Finance working group
Background (Byron heads this group - they've held 13 working meetings plus ICANNmeetings - robust discussion right to the end to achieve best available solution. The have posted the final report with a resolution. Byron acknowledged the work of the WG)
The ccNSO Finance WG was established in October 2010 with a mandate that included:
“a. to discuss with ICANN (i.) the amounts attributed to ccTLDs and (ii) the underlying attribution method(s) to attempt to establish which of those amounts and method(s) are reasonable and may be acceptable to the ccTLD community
b. to discuss with ICANN a methodology for individual ccTLDs to use to calculate a fair and equitable voluntary financial contribution to ICANN and propose such a methodology to the ccTLD community
After a long and intense consultation process of the community the WG and others the WG, finalized its report during the ccNSO meeting in Buenos Aires meeting (November 2013).
The chair of the Finance WG submitted the Final Report of the WG to the Council recommending that the ccNSO Council adopts the proposed Guideline to replace the March 2007 Guideline on Financial contributions. (http://ccnso.icann.org/announcements/announcement-09mar07.htm)
The chair of the ccNSO received a letter from ICANN’s CEO and President expressing his support for the emerging outcome of the discussion on the financial contribution from the ccTLD community to ICANN, and his acceptance of the “ value exchange model” and the associated overall level of the financial contribution and the voluntary nature of the contributions(http://ccnso.icann.org/announcements/announcement-20nov13-en.htm ).
Draft Resolution
The ccNSO Council notes and welcomes the exemplary, long and intensive consultation efforts and process the Finance WG went through, to gather input and feed-back from the community.
The ccNSO Council notes and welcomes the letter from ICANN’s CEO and President on the overall level of the financial contribution and the voluntary nature of the contributions.
The ccNSO Council adopts the proposed November 2013 Guideline for Voluntary Contributions of ccTLDs to ICANN, and request the chair of the ccNSO to inform the CEO and President of ICANN accordingly, once the Guideline becomes effective.
The ccNSO Council requests staff to publish this resolution as soon as possible after closure this ccNSO Council meeting.
In accordance to the rules of the ccNSO (http://ccnso.icann.org/about/ccnso-rules-dec04-en.pdf) , the November 2013 Guideline will become effective seven days after publication of the decision by the Council.
Finally, the ccNSO Council wholeheartedly thanks and congratulates all who participated in the process and in particular the chair of the Finance WG (Byron Holland, .CA) and the members of the Finance WG, and Xavier Calvez (CFO ICANN) and other staff, and all members of the community who were involved in this long and sometimes challenging effort.
9) Next steps to identify potential issues and propose next steps pertaining to cross-community capacity building

Working group reports
a) FOIWG - Keith Davidson - Followup will be the glossary
Topics for interpretation
- Consent - for delegation and redelegation requests ( final report complete)
- Significantly interested parties (SIP) public consultation completed
- Revocation - is currently with public consultation process
- Comprehensive gloassary (in progress)
- Recommendations for IANA reports on del and redel (the WG will begin this work after completing the FOI)
Activities since Durban
Published progress report on activities - met on teleconferences 5 x
Details on Revocation
RFC 1591 identifies three mechanism available to the IANA operation: delegation, transfer and revocation
Under RFC1591, a transfer requires the consent of the incumbent ccTLD manager
Revocation refers to the process by which the IANA operator rescinds responsibility for management of a cctLD from a manager.
If a manager does not consent to a proposed Transfer, the only mechanism available to the IANA Operator is to deal with the situation is revocation.
Revocation does not mean the removal of the ccTLD from the root - the issue is with the management of the ccTLD
Assessing how the ccTLD has carried out the necessary responsibilities, judging the extent of the requirements having been met or not met, might have to be done locally rather than by the IANA Operator who won't have the regular knowledge of this performance.
Substantial misbehaviour - given in detail in the document - it is in public consultation - generally it requires a degree of seriousness, magnitude and persistence.. And compromises the security of the ccTLD.
RFC1591 refers to community support as well - loss of community support is included as an appropriate complaint
b) Country Names Study Group - Paul Szyndler
3 recommendations made
- Cross community working group - to look further into the study
- WG will provide advice of a uniform definition of the framework for all respective SOs or Acs..
- The WG will provide detailed advice as to what the content will be
November 20, 2013. Country reports
Recent Developments of Governmental Movements in Japan – TBC
The Japanese government recently decided to set up an expert committee to create a mechanism for oversight of the management of DNS, including the registry operation, in Japan. The presentation will brief its background and how such mechanism is expected to be.
Current Status and Plans of the registry NIC.VE – Jesus Rivera, .ve
Current status of the registry regarding the functional structure of the nic.ve (organization chart), explanation of the process of Domain Names Registration; Legal framework; relevant cases and procedures for conflict resolution through WIPO; NIC.VE numbers, Statistical Data (Indicators); Some considerations and updates on modernization projects.
EURid co-Funded Marketing Programme Update – Giovanni Seppia, .eu
The Co-funded Marketing Programme has been available to .eu accredited registrars since 28 April 2009. The first evaluation of the Programme took place in mid-2010, upon request of the European Commission. However, at that stage, only a limited number of campaigns had been carried out under the scheme and it was difficult, therefore, to properly assess the value of the Programme for .eu accredited registrars and its impact on .eu registration volumes and awareness of the domain. Over the course of 2010 and 2011, the Programme has taken off considerably. An overview of the campaigns conducted shows that the number of proposals submitted has risen steadily since 2009 to reach 90 proposals so far in 2013. Under the Co-funded Marketing Programme, EURid contributes to the costs of a registrar¹s .eu marketing campaign that meets specific conditions. The Programme has been recently awarded the CENTR Awards for Marketing and Communication.

Panel Discussions Nov 20
Summaries of the comments of some of the speakers.
Sebastian - ISOC - esp re Latin America and Africa - very coordinated
Baher - explained that capacity building is not as coordinated in the Middle East - Not just technical but aso policy related. Howeever, Technical is significant. Collaborate with other I* organisations = responding to the needs of local areas. Train the trainer and similar models are seen as a way to drive things forward and incorporated into development plans.
Paul Wilson - has coordinated the activities of all the RIRs - these are the bodies related to the distribution of IP addresses - work with ISPs - there is a diversity of priorities that come from guidance from our members - based on the relationship with the ISPs. APNIC's founding docs contain a mission to facilitate education around the region - share that mission with RipeNIC and LACNIC - collectively across the RIRs re involved in the training in variousforms - each of the RIRs has two meetings a year and those mtgs serve members and community - org specific content - conference oriented towards professional practices and challenges - do these in collaboration with TLDs, ICANN, RIRs, and NOGs who organise at a regional level cos they are the channels to the ISPs and the source of demand about growth and development within the industry. The mission is to bring this realtime ifnormation into the system.- capacity building in internet infrastructure across the region - technical capacity can make a lot of difference to achieveing an efficient infrastructure within a country within a developing market (professional abiility to lose technical skills to other areas).. The need for capacity building is a definite need in developing countries especially.
The was more of an interview session with Brad White.
Following a security breach Costa Rica, Rosalia was able to advise other ccTLDs should it happen to them. For example:Recommendations
- Have immediate and transparent communication with clients
- Contact ICANN security team for advice and local CERT or CSIRT
- Have a clear media strategy
- Have an internal security incident protocol
- Pre-empt: many security incident experience in the ccTLD community to learn from
