October 2018 CCNSO Update

ccPDP on retirement working group Face to Face Meeting - 20 October 2018

The working group held its face to face meeting on 20th October 2018 in Barcelona. The meeting was a continuation of the sessions held on 27 September 2018. During the session members continued with various mindmap exercises that sought to address among other things issues such as the time required by a Registry to complete a retirement process as well as what would happen if a country that had previously retired its ccTLD decided to revert to its old name hence requiring the old country name code to be restored to the root.

ccNSO Study Group on use of Emojis as SLD Face to Face Meeting - 20 October 2018

The study Group had a face to meeting in Barcelona. During the meeting , participants felt that there was need to avoid dwelling on negative aspects of using emojis as TLDs and pay more attention on positive aspects. The Study Group requested for more time from the ccNSO council to enable it consolidate views from a cross section of members and present its final report in Kobe Japan. Overall, the SSAC maintained the same point of view they had in the previous meeting that Emojis should not be allowed as SLDs due to their confusing similarity.

ccNSO Strategic and Operational Planning Commitee Face to Face meeting - 21 October 2018

The Strategic and operational planning commitee met ICANN's Finance team and reviewed the FY 2018 Finance Highlights. Notable issues were a reduction in the number of Staff and the fact that ICANN had put in place austerity measures that enabled it to operate below the projected budget leading to a profit.

The session also delved into ICANNs Financial year 2020 operating plan and budget process which covered the process overview and deliverables, planning structure, document overview as well as the proposed timeline and key dates. Members of the commitee sought to know how the Community will be involved in the process.

The ICANN Multi Stakeholder and Strategic Initiatives  team gave an update on the ICANN Strategy Plan 2021 - 2025. The team outlined the process that will be following during the Community Consultation phase. Participants encouraged the team to review comments that were made by different consituencies on the current strategic plan . Members noted that the Strategic trends exercises that were conducted in Panama yielded very usefull output which should be considered. Members also requested the tean to avopid requesting for comments during Holiday seasons.
