<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><<Motion
for Whois Studies Funding for FY11.doc>> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In our Council meeting on 1 April I encouraged Councilors and their
respective SGs and Constituencies to develop and propose specfic
recommendations for funding of Whois Studies in the FY11 budget but no such
recommendations were submitted. Recognizing that the Draft ICANN Budget
has to be posted not later than 17 May and our next Council meeting after the
one on 21 April is not until 20 May, three days later, I decided that we should
try to make a recommendation in our meeting on 21 April. To facilitate
that possibility I asked Liz to draft the attached motion (also pasted below).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Because of the lateness of the motion we would need to first approve an
exception to the 8-day GNSO Operating Procedures Requirement for motions before
we could act on this motion. Also note that the motion has a placeholder
for the amount to be budgeted for Whois Studies. My personal opinion is
that it would be good to fund at least two studies in FY11 and even better if
we could fund three if they are ready to go, thereby avoiding very lengthy
delays for at least two and maybe three studies. Based on the estimates
provided for two of the studies, a minimum of $300,000 would be needed and it
might be wise to add a 10% buffer on to that, making it $330,000. If we
decided to budget for three studies, one of which we do not have any cost
estimates for, we could bump the amount up to $500,000.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In a year of limited financial resources, we cannot guarantee how much will
ultimately be put into the budget but we can should in my opinion at least make
a recommendation for consideration by the community and ultimately the ICANN
Board.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style='margin-left:108.0pt'>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Please discuss this motion with your SGs and Constituencies before our
meeting on Wednesday so that we can act on it using whatever amount we decide
at that time if possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Discussion on the list is encouraged and, if anyone is willing to second it
without the amount inserted, that is welcome as well. If anyone would
rather see an amount inserted, we can insert one that can later be amended.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Chuck <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Motion for WHOIS Studies Funding for FY11 <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Whereas: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In October 2007, the GNSO Council concluded that a comprehensive, objective
and quantifiable understanding of key factual issues regarding the gTLD WHOIS
system would benefit future GNSO policy development efforts (<a
href="http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/">http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/</a>)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Before defining the details of studies, the Council solicited suggestions
from the community for specific topics of study on WHOIS. Suggestions were
submitted (<a href="http://forum.icann.org/lists/WHOIS-comments-2008/">http://forum.icann.org/lists/WHOIS-comments-2008/</a>
) and ICANN staff prepared a 'Report on Public Suggestions on Further Studies
of WHOIS', dated 25-Feb-2008 (<a
href="http://gnso.icann.org/issues/Whois-privacy/Whois-study-suggestion-report-25feb08.pdf">http://gnso.icann.org/issues/WHOIS-privacy/WHOIS-study-suggestion-report-25feb08.pdf</a>
).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>On 5 November 2008 the GNSO Council formed a drafting team to solicit
further constituency views assessing both the priority level and the
feasibility of the various proposed WHOIS studies, with the goal of deciding
which studies, if any, should be assessed for cost and feasibility. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The Drafting Team determined that the six studies with the highest average
priority scores should be the subject of further research to determine
feasibility and obtain cost estimates. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>On 4 March 2009 the GNSO Council requested that Staff conduct research on
feasibility and cost estimates for those six WHOIS studies and following that
assessment the Council would decide which studies should be conducted (<a
href="http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/#200903">http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/#200903</a>)
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>On 23 March 2010, staff provided its analysis to the GNSO Council of costs
and feasibility for the first two study areas, and will continue to work on the
remaining areas<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Resolved, that the GNSO Council recommends that at least (insert US dollar
amount) be included in the ICANN Budget for FY 2011.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Resolved further, that the GNSO secretariat communicate this resolution to
the ICANN Chief Financial Officer and the Board Finance Committee.<o:p></o:p></p>
