> ( see report
> <https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/GNSO+Liaison+Report%2C+post-Oct+2021#May2023E-Show_Jun2023B> ).
> During that meeting, Council agreed to further task the small team with
> taking interim steps (e.g., provision is clarifying information, developing
> speaking points) in order to support the Council’s dialogue with the
> ICANN Board on 22 May <https://community.icann.org/x/y4lXDg>.
> - The important thing to note here is that this Council dialogue with
> the ICANN Board SubPro caucus and/or ICANN Board is ongoing as the goal is
> to try and resolve as many of those 38 pending recommendations as possible
> without resulting in the ICANN Board rejecting them. This inevitably
> necessitates rather regular updates because information may change quickly.

>
> *Action by ALAC Liaison*To assist in formulating ALAC positions on the 38
> Pending Outputs (if any) in time for the pre-ICANN77 ALAC-GNSO Bilateral.
>
> *2. Closed Generics*
>
> - The GNSO-GAC-ALAC Closed Generics Dialogue is expected to deliver a
> draft framework, if agreed, around or just after 31 May 2023. It should be
> noted that this draft framework is meant to draw some boundaries on how to
> introduce closed generics in the next round and it will have to go through
> a GNSO policy development process to produce actual consensus policy, which
> is expected to take 18 months.
> - GNSO Council leadership has proposed that EPDP be the policy
> development mechanism to take the framework forward, and although not
> confirmed, will likely be cross-community in nature. The proposition of an
> EPDP drew some apprehension from several councilors.
> - So far, the Dialogue has adopted Chatham House Rule so we will not
> know the actual contents of the framework until it is released circa end
> May.
> - However, I understand that the framework will likely include some
> reference to application questions, evaluation, post delegation - registry
> agreement aspects, and can be easily morph into a charter for the policy
> development process.
>
> *3. DNS Abuse*
>
> - Council ran out of time at its call, so the adoption of the
> Council's Small Team on DNS Abuse's next output i.e. feedback on bulk
> registrations
> <https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/draft/draft-dns-abuse-small-team-findings-15may23-en.pdf> will
> be done on Council's mail list by around 5 Jun.
>

> *Action by ALAC Liaison*To assist in formulating ALAC positions on the 38
> Pending Outputs (if any) in time for the pre-ICANN77 ALAC-GNSO Bilateral.
>
> *4. EPDP Phase 2 - Registration Data Request Service (RDRS)*
>
> - The EPDP Phase 2 Small Team has formulated success criteria for RDRS
> but these are not set in stone. They need to remain flexible as and when
> the RDRS is implemented and tested so they can be adjusted to meet market
> needs.
> - The small team has pushed back against the Board's suggestion to
> have a policy process to compel mandatory adoption of usage of the RDRS by
> registrars.
>
> *5. Registration Data Accuracy*
>
> - Seeing no progress on this, Council will defer consideration of this
> till the June meeting. This is also in light of some work being attempted
> at the European Union level with a survey and a report but the meeting for
> that had just been cancelled.
> - Some councilors expressed concern with indefinite delay / inaction
> on this area of work.
>
> *6. Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) EPDP*
>
> - This EPDP has submitted a project plan which identifies all its
> charter questions that will impact the next Applicant Guidebook (AGB),
> along with considerations to ensure a consistent solution on IDN Variant
> TLDs with the ccPDP4 on IDN ccTLDs, and a timeline by when the IDNs EPDP
> will deliver relevant recommendations to the GNSO Council (this was 1 of 4
> requests made by the Board, as a result of the adopted *ICANN Board 16
> March 2023 Resolution
> <https://www.icann.org/en/board-activities-and-meetings/materials/approved-resolutions-regular-meeting-of-the-icann-board-16-03-2023-en#section2.a>*
> ,
> - In short, the EPDP has analysed their Phase 2 charter questions and
> found no significant efficiency if it were to further break down Phase 2
> work in order to deliver some recommendations which would impact the AGB
> and Registry Agreement update. Adding any additional public comment
> process would prolong the project timeline unnecessarily. As such, the
> expected timeline is, conservatively:
> - Phase 1 Final Report: 10 Nov 2023
> - Phase 2 Initial Report: 18 Apr 2025
> - Phase 2 Final Report: 24 Oct 2025
> - In the meantime, the EPDP will continue to find ways to achieve
> greater efficiencies through more preparatory work, considering
> foundational issues, and securing more sessions at ICANN F2F meetings and a
> dedicated F2F meeting in Nov-Dec 2023, while bearing in mind the need to
> minimize churn/burnout/drop in participation. As it is, this EPDP is
> already meeting 2 hours per week and already seeking ICANN org GDS input on
> draft recommendations and implementation guidance as deliberations go on
> instead of waiting until the ICANN Board approves them.
>
> *7. Nominating Committee rebalancing*
>
> - Council will set up a small team to consider Council's response to
> the issue of NomCom rebalancing.
