Notes - new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG - 27 April 2017
1. Start of meeting – roll call
· Roll call will be taken from Adobe Connect
· Reminder, please state name for transcription purposes and keep your microphones on mute when not speaking
2. Welcome & updates to DOIs
· Aim to keep call to 60 minutes if possible
· Reminder, please share any updates to your DOI
3. Response to ICANN Board letter
· Numerous comments received on the mailing list, especially with regards to % to be spent on overhead
· Need to be careful with concrete numbers as it is not clear yet what mechanism would be chosen and what the implications would be with regards to overhead.
· Proposed modification: Several CCWG members/participants did point out, however, that the overhead costs will depend on the actual mechanism recommended [as a result of the CCWG deliberations] and may therefore vary from the 5% recommended by the ICANN Board.
· Board does have understanding that % may vary - critical message is that impact of choices on costs should be factored in so that bulk is not spent on administration/overhead.
Action item #1: Staff to circulate letter with updated language for CCWG final review (1 week review time)
Action item #2: CCWG Leadership to submit letter to ICANN Board following CCWG final review
4. Review of updates approach for dealing with charter questions and associated work plan
· See updated approach and work plan circulated
· CCWG requested to review these documents and provide input on both steps as well as timing
· Timeline for delivery of Initial Report is an artificial deadline - up to CCWG to decide if/when to adjust based on progress made.
Action item #3: Staff to circulate documents (updated graphic and updated work plan)
Action item #4: CCWG to review updated approach for dealing with charter questions and updated work plan
5. Initial run through of charter question 5
· See template for charter question 5 circulated
· Further details may be needed on the selection committees mentioned - may be worth reviewing other responses from same person as it may be further detailed in response to other questions.
· Important to determine order in which questions are to be dealt with
6. Initial run through of charter question 7, if time allows
· See template for charter question 7 circulated
· Confusion over the use of ICANN - ICANN staff, ICANN community? Most of the ccTLDs use community volunteers. Should be contemplated. One of the possible outcomes is volunteers from the ICANN community - add this to the template.
· Adherence to mission will likely have two implications: will limit # of proposals that would get through first gate, would preclude outside group.
· If you use volunteers, there may be an issue of consistency. # of applications is not clear yet, may depend on criteria that are set (e.g. minimum / max. amount to be funded).
· Outsourcing or inhouse - may need further consideration once it is clear what the focus / objective of fund allocation will be.
· Need to look into the creation of a foundation where principal funds are not spent and, instead, invested. The growth is then distributed. This is a unique opportunity for this community and it should maximized for posterity and for the good of the Internet.
· Consider deleting first response as question may not have been clear to person that responded.
Action item #5: Staff to update template with input provided during this meeting and circulate it to CCWG for review & input
7. Confirm next meeting – Thursday 11 May at 14.00 UTC
· Review charter question 7 again in order to determine whether there is a certain hierarchy.
