| ALAC: Advice to the ICANN Board on Subsequent Procedures (R-09C) | AL-ALAC-ST-0421-02-01-EN (R-09C) | Phase 2 | Understand |
Description:
Thus, we believe there should be a ban on private auctions. Also, by mandating ICANN only auctions, the proceeds of any such ICANN auctions can at least be directed for uses in pursuit of public interest, such as was determined through the CCWG on Auction Proceeds.
STATUS UPDATES
| Date | Phase | Type | Status Updates |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 2 | Phase Update | As noted at the joint Board-ALAC session at ICANN75, the Board greatly appreciates the ALAC's responses to the Board's questions. The Board continues to review and consider the ALAC advice, to determine whether, in addition to informing the Board’s deliberations, there are actionable items that may require Board action before (or after) the Board takes action on the SubPro policy recommendations. The Board anticipates that this exercise will be completed in the first half of 2023 and that a response to the advice would come at the time of action on the SubPro Final Report – or shortly thereafter. |
| Phase 2 | AP Feedback | The ALAC reiterates that its Advice of April 16 April 2021 in respect of this topic is clear. We are instead unclear on the Board’s question and wish to refer the Board again to our said Advice. |
| Phase 2 | Clarifying Question | The Board would like to note that, in the Applicant Guidebook to the 2012 round, it states: “Applicants that are identified as being in contention are encouraged to reach a settlement or agreement among themselves that resolves the contention.” The Board would like to clarify whether the ALAC advice is intended to state a preference for resolving contention via the ICANN auction, and if so, what kind of parameters would the ALAC set around that? |

| Phase 1 | Phase Update | Acknowledgment sent to ALAC |
