CLOSED ACTION ITEMS

  1. ALAC to formally assign the following two Danny Y. comments to gTLD WG, chaired by Evan, during its 26 July meeting (as recommended by ExCom).
    1. Comments
      1. “The ALAC needs to start its work on the ‘robust’ objection vetting process called for by the Guidebook (3.3.2).  Can we count on receiving senior ICANN Policy Staff support in this 
      2. “Different topic, but related to Staff Support requests -- from the Guidebook (3.3.2) Funding from ICANN for objection filing fees, as well as for advance payment of costs is available to the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC). Funding for ALAC objection filing and dispute resolution fees is contingent on publication by ALAC of its approved process for considering and making objections. At a minimum, the process for objecting to a gTLD application will require: bottom-up development of potential objections, discussion and approval of objections at the Regional At-Large Organization (RALO) level, and a process for consideration and approval of the objection by the At-Large Advisory Committee.  Will need senior policy staff to develop a robust process
    2. Staff to put the additional piece of work on the wiki as a sanction/chartered objective for the new gTLD workgroup.
    3. ExCom to consider the following AC Room chat comment from Danny Younger (it possibly should be asked of ICANN COO):  “The ALAC needs to start its work on the ‘robust’ objection vetting process called for by the Guidebook (3.3.2).  Can we count on receiving senior ICANN Policy Staff support in this endeavor?”
