[council] Feedback requested - CCT Review GNSO Requirements

[Marika Konings]

Dear All,

As also mentioned in the chat, it would be helpful to know whether the Council supports the GNSO Council Requirements as set out on page two and for your convenience also copied here below so that staff can reach out to the candidates looking for GNSO endorsements to provide this information so that it can be received well in time for the next GNSO Council meeting. With regards to the time commitment which was flagged as one of the items to be discussed, I checked with my colleagues and they estimate that the following is required:

  *   Weekly meetings of around 1-2 hours each
  *   F2F meetings at ICANN meetings
  *   Possibly 1-2 F2F meetings (total) outside the ICANN meetings during 2016
  *   As the RT gets ready to publish its Final Report, activity may increase to about 5 hours a week, but that may only be for a couple of weeks.
  *   The hope is that the Final Report is published by the end of 2016, although it could take longer to get through all the issues

In light of that, maybe the requirement could be revised as follows:

An attestation that the applicant is able and willing to commit an estimated average of two hours per week during the review period, which may increase to 5 hours per week towards the final stages of the project, in addition to participating in face to face review team meetings.

Please share any comments or edits you may have as soon as possible as we would like to get back to the candidates as soon as possible to collect this information if the Council agrees that this required information for the endorsement process.

Best regards,

Marika

Dear All,

On behalf of Volker Greimann, please find attached the original process that GNSO Council used for its endorsements for the ATRT2 as well as a modified version that has been developed by Wolf-Ulrich Knoben that the Council may wish to consider for the purpose of the CCT endorsements. Specific items that will need to be discussed by the GNSO Council have been highlighted in yellow.

Best regards,

Marika
