GNSO<br></div><b>Betreff:</b> [council] Re: Second Milestone Report of the JAS
CWG<br></font><br></div><div><div></div><div>
<div></div>Hi Rafik, Carlton,
<div><br></div>
<div>Having read the JAS WG report, I want to congratulate you and the group
on the impressive amount of work that has been achieved.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I have several questions which I thought I'd put to the list so that they
might benefit any discussion we might have on this during our next Council
meeting. These are to help my personal understanding of the report and what
the group is recommending.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>On page 3, it says that the group is responding to requests from its
charters and the Board and the GAC. Should we understand by this statement
that the group has been taking input directly from the Board and the GAC, on
top of its chartering organisations?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>On page 4 it says "This WG is comprised of members who support these aims
and are committed to lowering the barriers to full participation in the gTLD
program by a truly global and inclusive community." As co-chairs, do you feel
the group's membership was representative of a sufficiently diverse set
of views, opinions and approaches?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Page 6 says that one criteria for eligibility is "Service in an
under‐served language, the presence of which on the Internet has been
limited". This is further explained in 3.1.2. But I don't understand what the
metrics for these criteria are? What makes a language under-served and how can
we measure if its presence on the Internet is limited?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Page 9, section 3.3 goes back to my earlier question about where and from
whom the group has been getting input. Here it says that the group had agreed
on one set of recommendations (govs not entitled to support) but are now
working to change those after the GAC has asked them to. Do you, as co-chairs,
feel comfortable with this?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Page 12, section 4.2 Do you not feel the deferment of DNSSEC is not in
keeping with ICANN's mission of ensuring a stable and secure Internet? As
DNSSEC is such a clear security feature, would it not be better to seek
(financial) support for applicants that find the cost of implementing it too
high, rather than suggesting they need not implement it upon start-up (with
the risk that it may then be years before they actually do implement
it)?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>On the same section, what does the group mean by "relaxed VI rules" in
the light of the latest Board resolution on VI?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks for any help or any answers you can provide and once again, I
would like to thank you for the hard work you have both put in to this
group.</div>
<div> <br>
<div>
<div>Stéphane</div>
