Review Team<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>6.1. Special Trademark Issues update -
Zahid Jamil (pending review by STI chair)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE>When this update was written the STI had held
four conference calls. Two each on each of the two heads (TM Clearinghouse
& URS) raised by the Board’s letter.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE>Constituencies represented and ALAC have
provided their position statements in regards the issues and the Group is
currently working on a Common Grounds Paper where some issues have reached
agreement. This update will avoid identifying/characterising issues under
discussion or their importance since there may be varying views on these.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE>There is some interest for a possible face to
face meeting to attempt resolution of outstanding issues or at least to meet
once comments are received on the final report of the STI.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE>It has been felt by the STI that the time
allocated for submission of the Final Report is not practically feasible if
consensus on all issues is to be effectively reached.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE>Whereas the GNSO had passed a resolution in
its Public meeting at Seoul on 28th October 2009 stating that “The GNSO STI
review team will provide a final report to the GNSO on or before the GNSO's
council meeting in late November, 2009”. There is consensus within the STI
Review Team that the time available for submission of a final report may not be
adequate in order for the Review Team to submit meaningful and efficacious
report. The Review Team suggests that the next meeting of the GNSO be scheduled
near enough the deadline (14th of December 2009) set by the Board for
submission of the GNSO response, in order to provide the Review Team with
adequate time to effectively complete its review and submit a final report
before the date of the next GNSO meeting to be scheduled before the Board
mandated deadline. However, the STI-RT intends to deliver its report no later
than Monday, 7 December."<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>At our previous meeting, we had established a target date of

Several sets of lists were received and a few other topics were identified on
the subteam B mailing list. Staff prepared a cumulative chart of the topics on
these lists, and most of our November 18 meeting was spent reviewing this
chart. A number of questions were raised, especially regarding items on the
list submitted by a group of law enforcement representatives, and one of these
representatives will be invited to our next meeting to present the joint law
enforcement list and to answer questions. <span lang=EN-US>The date for the

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Renewed "Re-confirmation"
Effoorts for Existing GNSO Constituencies - The seating of the new GNSI Cpuncil
now frees up some ICANN Board resources to address the
"re-confirmation" of the existing GNSO Constituencies. Back in August
of last year, the ICANN Board determined taht if potential new GNSO
Constituencies were going to be subject to a certification process, then it was
appropriate to set up a system by which existing GNSO Constituencies could be
regularly evaluated as well. The Board adopted a concept of
"re-confirming" the charters and operational mechanisms of each GNSO
Constituency every three years (see- </span><a
href="http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/minutes-28aug08.htm)._"><span lang=EN-US>http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/minutes-28aug08.htm)._</span></a><span

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The initial Constituency re-confirmation process was slated
for earlier this year, but the process took a back seat as the Board focused
its efforts on evaluation and approval of the new GNSO Stakeholder Group
structures and approval of the processes and recommended Bylaws changes
necessary for seating the new GNSO Council. Now that the Board has generally
resolved those issues, it has set a deadline of March 2010 for formal
re-submission of any revised re-confirmation proposals by the existing GNSO
Constituencies and has directed the ICANN Staff to assist constituency leaders
in developing those submissions (see - <a

<p class=MsoNormal>The Board is also awaiting charter updates to reflect the
new Stakeholder Group structures from the Commercial and Business Users
Constituency and the Internet Service and Connectivity Providers Constituency

Under Consideration –_ICANN Board members conducted substantial discussions in
Seoul regarding the proposals for four new GNSO Constituencies but took no
formal action.__All four of the proposed new GNSO Constituency charters
(CyberSafety, Consumers, City TLDs and IDNgTLDs) remain “pending.” </span>The

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>_Permanent Stakeholder Group Charters
–_When the Board approved the four (4) new GNSO Stakeholder Group structures
earlier this year it acknowledged that the charters for the Commercial
Stakeholder Group and the Non Commercial Stakeholder Group were to be
transitional/temporary and that permanent charters were to be developed over
the course of the coming year. </span>The Board is already examining some
options being considered by the community for what permanent charters might
look like. Based on discussions in Seoul, the Staff will be working to develop
opportunities for dialogue and further community discussion of these important
matters.<o:p></o:p></p>
