[CWG-DT-Stewardship] Update from the GNSO and draft call for observers for your review

Fri Sep 5 12:47:49 UTC 2014

Of course, nothing would prevent interested GAC members to join before that
time as observers. If any of those observers are later selected as members,
they can just be listed as such. Staff's idea was to try and schedule a
first meeting of the CWG early October via conference call to allow for some
initial introductions as well as discussions around the agenda for the F2F
meeting in Los Angeles  do you all think that is feasible or should the
first meeting happen in LA?

Best regards,

Marika

I don¹t think the GAC is as advanced as us. I spoke briefly to Heather today
and mentioned that the first meeting of the CWG would be on the Monday at
ICANN 51.  I did not get the impression that they would have their
representatives chosen, or even the charter approved by then.  I did
emphasize the importance of having someone from the GAC at the meeting to
signal solidarity.  She well understood the point but would not commit
beyond saying that she would do what she could.  You probably know that he
term as chair will end in Los Angeles and the GAC is currently running a
process to choose her successor.

Hi Allan,

Marika and I discussed timing.

Currently most SO and Acs are looking for volunteers ( either as member or
observer).

Sending out a call for observers independent of this process may cause
confusion, hence the idea to send out this general call for observers post
closure of call for embers/observers from the SO and Acs ( sometimes
mid-September).

Kind regards,

Bart

Thanks for the update Marika.  Heather Dryden, chair of the GAC, just sent
Byron and Jonathan a message on where the GAC stands on the CWG.  In it she
said that ³At this point I can express GAC¹s sincere interest in pursuing
the matter, meaning that the GAC leadership will present a proposal
regarding the Cross-Community Working Group for adoption by the GAC,
followed by appointment of GAC participants. I will keep you posted on these
developments from the GAC side in a timely manner.²

So I think this completes the roundup of where the participating communities
stand.  I take it that the October 13 meeting is now fixed.  Now it¹s up to
the participating SO/AC¹s to finish the process of selecting members.  How
would you foresee the call for observers you have prepared being
distributed?  It would be useful for it to go out rather quickly so that the
word might get out.

Dear All,

For your information, the GNSO Council adopted the CWG charter during its
meeting today (see resolution below). The GNSO has requested that GNSO
Stakeholder Groups provide the names of members for the CWG by 15 September
at the latest and has recommended that the chairs of the DT serve as the
interim chairs of the CWG until the CWG has had the opportunity to select
its leadership. 

In order to prepare for the call for observers, we've prepared the attached
draft call that we would suggest is posted and circulated once most of the
chartering organisations have appointed their members (we understand that
the SSAC has already adopted the charter and the ALAC vote is finishing
tomorrow). If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to
share.

As your respective organisations identify their members for the CWG, please
provide the information to Grace so that they can be added to the mailing
list. We hope it will be possible to schedule a first meeting of the CWG in
early October so the group can discuss whether or not it would like to meet
in Los Angeles, and if so, what the agenda should be and what materials
should be prepared, if any.

As you'll have noted from the announcement that Grace just shared, the ICG
has requested that all formal responses are expected to be submitted by 31
December 2014.

We hope this is helpful.

Best regards,

Marika

Adoption of a Charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA
Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions

Made by: Avri Doria

Seconded by: Amr Elsadr

Whereas,
1. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has
requested that ICANN ³convene a multistakeholder process to develop a plan
to transition the U.S. government stewardship role² with regard to the IANA
Functions and related root zone management.
2. On June 6 2014, ICANN proposed the creation of an IANA Stewardship
Transition Coordination Group (ICG) ³responsible for preparing a transition
proposal reflecting the differing needs of the various affected parties of
the IANA functions.²
3. It was determined that the transition proposal should be developed within
the directly affected communities (i.e. the IETF for development of
standards for Internet Protocol Parameters; the NRO, the ASO, and the RIRs
for functions related the management and distribution of numbering
resources; and the GNSO and ccNSO for functions related to the Domain Name
System). These efforts would inform the work of the ICG, whose
responsibility would be to fashion an overall integrated transition proposal
from these autonomously developed components.
4. Following distribution of an invitation to participate, a drafting team
(DT) was formed with participants from the ccNSO, GNSO, SSAC and ALAC to
develop a charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA
Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions.
5. The DT delivered the proposed charter for consideration to the ccNSO,
GNSO, SSACC and ALAC (see [include link to proposed charter]).
Resolved,
1. The GNSO Council approves the Charter [include link] and appoints
Jonathan Robinson as the GNSO Council liaison and member to the CWG.
2. Each GNSO Stakeholder Group will identify one member for the CWG by 15
September taking into account the charter requirement that best efforts
should be made to ensure that members:
* Have sufficient expertise to participate in the applicable subject matter;
* Commit to actively participate in the activities of the CWG on an ongoing
and long-term basis; and
* Where appropriate, solicit and communicate the views and concerns of
individuals in the organization that appoints them.
* 
* 3. The GNSO will collaborate with the other SOs and ACs to issue a call
for observers to join the CWG, each in accordance with its own rules.
* 
* 4. Until the CWG selects its co-chairs for the CWG, the GNSO Council
recommends that the co-chairs of the Drafting Team shall serve as the
interim co-chairs of the CWG.
