[Dt-cwg-auctionproceeds] Notes and Outcomes from Thursday 14 July

[David Tait]

Dear All

 

Please find below the Notes and Outcomes from today’s Auction Proceeds Drafting Team meeting:

 

1. Roll call & Welcome

 Due to low attendance decision taken to focus on process and practicalities rather than substantive issues. [Note, a number of DT members joined the call after the roll call & welcome which meant that there was sufficient attendance to also address substantive issues]

 

2. Review feedback received during Helsinki session & discuss how to address feedback in draft charter

 Notes and outcomes:

 

Generally positive feedback received on the session in Helsinki. Board met to discuss this topic prior to the start of the Helsinki meeting but has yet to share views with the DT in writing.

 

Action items: 

Board liaisons to send written feedback to DT mailing list for circulation and discussion. These comments to then be incorporated into revised comment review tool. Comments will be identified as either Helsinki meeting comments or subsequent emails, DT member or Board comments.

 

Board liaisons to provide feedback on whether Board is planning / willing to commit to a process for considering the recommendations similar to what was done for CCWG-Accountability.

 

Consideration of public comments from Helsinki Meeting:

 

(1) DT View- This is an issue for the CCWG Action- Pass to CCWG to consider.

 

(2) to (5) DT View- (i) DT to specify that lobbying be prohibited to the extent that it protects the tax exempt status of ICANN. (ii) Such a prohibition should be applied generically so as to be applied fairly across the world so as not to be US-centric. Action- DT to include this guidance to CCWG.

 

(6) DT View - DT will give clear consideration to this point. Action - DT to consider in revision process.

 

Action items: Review paused to be continued offline and picked-up again at next meeting. DT members encouraged to review comments and share feedback on the mailing list.

 

3. Identify outstanding items that need further DT consideration (e.g. statement of interest, conflict of interest)

 Notes:

Items for further consideration-

 

(1) Position on adherence to the ICANN mission statement.

(2) How should conflicts of interest be dealt with including mandatory Statements of Interest? At what stage and under what conditions will participation be governed by conflict of interest provisions.

 

4. Discuss timeline for finalizing charter

 Notes:

 

See timeline circulated containing two options: 1) if no issues are identified by ICANN SO/ACs that would prevent adoption of the charter this could potentially allow for the creation of the CCWG prior to ICANN57 with a first meeting taking place at ICANN57, 2) if issues are identified by ICANN SO/ACs that would prevent adoption of the charter, additional time may be needed to address these issues which would allow possible consideration of the charter for adoption at ICANN57. DT may try to aim for option 1, but timetable will need to be monitored to determine if additional time should be required.

 

5. Confirm next meeting & next steps

Notes: 

In order to avoid conflicts with other standing meetings, it has been proposed to adjust the meeting day from Thursday to Wednesday. Meeting length of 90 minutes but with 2 hours blocked out should it be required. Any issues regarding difficulties of times are requested to be raised.

 

Action item:

Doodle poll to be circulated by staff to determine time of the next meeting.
