[gnso-improvem-impl-sc] SCI Letter to GNSO Council Chair Jonathan Robinson

Hello Anne and everyone,

On the question of friendly amendments, we (staff) suggest that a straw poll
or other indicator of support from the whole SCI be taken, to indicate the
level of support among the SCI for the recommendation for ³clarification of
procedures for identifying and acting on friendly amendments². We make this
suggestion as it does not seem to us that the SCI has fully discussed the
issue, which so far has been on the Council¹s action list: see, e.g.
https://community.icann.org/x/FiLxAg. This can be done via Doodle or other
online means, if approved.

More broadly, I¹d like to note that (as Julie has mentioned), our intention
in suggesting edits to Greg¹s version of the letter, specifically in
relation to the language relating to periodic review, was not to derogate
from the SCI¹s Charter; rather, our suggested edits are also taken from the
Charter, where the periodic review of issues by the SCI is expressly
dependent on the expectation that a ³consistent review plan² first be
developed by the SCI.

Our suggested contemplated actions were also offered in view not just of the
amount of ongoing work that is happening on both CWGs for the IANA
Stewardship Transition and ICANN Accountability, but also to take into
account both the GNSO Review (for which preliminary results are not yet
known) and, perhaps more importantly, the amount of work that the Council
and the GNSO are also undertaking simultaneously. In addition to open public
comment periods for Translation and Transliteration of gTLD Contact Data and
Policy/Implementation, we are expecting an Initial Report (and public
comment period) shortly from the Privacy & Proxy Services Accreditation
Issues WG. We are also anticipating progress in refining the process for and
launch of the Purpose of WHOIS PDP and an Issue Report on Rights Protection
Mechanisms in All gTLDs. In addition to these GNSO-specific projects, the
community is being asked to provide feedback on issues of interest to the
GNSO such as the WHOIS Accuracy Pilot Study and IDN Variants, and it can
also expect public comment solicitations for data and feedback on the rights
protection mechanisms in the New gTLD Program.

Julie and I therefore thought that we might offer suggestions to the SCI¹s
draft letter that acknowledges that the GNSO Council is the manager of the
GNSO¹s policy development process, has perhaps the most comprehensive
overview of the workload of the GNSO, and has already put a couple of
matters on hold. 

Cheers
Mary

> Dear SCI members:
>  
> Per Julie, 
> Attendance for the call tomorrow does not look good so far.  We have not
> cancelled yet.  However, if we can get agreement via the list, that is of
> course desirable.  A new proposed draft is attached.
>  
> Will SCI members please consider the attached draft in lieu of the one
> modified by staff that was sent about 30 minutes ago?   This redline is a
> modification of Greg¹s draft and has the following points:
>  
> 1.      This version lists the current status after the January 15 council
> meeting as to ³friendly amendments² being on hold , but urges council to
> consider assigning the ³Friendly amendments² project to SCI for commencement
> of work after Singapore.  What this would mean is that discussion of this
> topic could take place during the 15 minutes tentatively scheduled for Avri on
> February 7 and Council would decide to either table this again or else to
> refer it to SCI.
> 
> 2.      This draft deletes the previous 10 day waiver rule item to which Avri
> strenuously objected and regarding which Amr disagrees with Greg as to whether
> the question was directly considered by SCI. (We can take up this issue in a
> later call since it is the subject of debate.)
> 
> 3.      This draft adds as Item 2  a reference to the ³Voting Thresholds²
> issue for possible referral to SCI that was also put on hold by Council in its
> January 15 meeting, but notes this is a more complicated topic which it is
> likely that Council will want to continue to defer until after a fuller
> discussion at the Council level.
> 
> 4.       Regarding SCI¹s periodic review responsibilities as outlined in its
> Charter  (Item 3),  the letter notes that even if no direction is received
> from Council at the Singapore meeting, it is still incumbent upon SCI, in
> accordance with its Charter, to work on a plan for periodic review to be
> submitted to Council and that we will do so in light of the upcoming Westlake
> Report.
> 
>  
> Please supply your input as soon as possible.  We would like to avoid
> scheduling another call.

>> Thanks Julie,
>>  
>> I am curious as to why the last draft you sent actually modified language
>> taken directly from the SCI Charter approved by Council in relation to the
>> distinction between ³immediate problems² referred by Council and ³periodic
>> review of all procedures and guidelines².  As a reminder, the bullet points
>> below are taken DIRECTLY FROM THE CHARTER:
>>  
>> ·        On request, for those procedures and guidelines that have been
>> identified as presenting immediate problems
>> 
>> ·        On a periodic timescale for all procedures and guidelines in order
>> to identify possible issues and/or improvements (subject to a clear
>> definition by SCI on which procedures and guidelines should be reviewed)
>> 
>>  
>> Although maximum participation is desirable, I am not sure we will find a
>> mutually agreeable time. I am unavailable all day July 29 and 30 and have
>> Policy & Implementation WG on Wednesday.  Since I am signing the letter as
>> SCI Chair, I would want to be involved in the call.
>>  
>> In terms of reading the current draft, we would definitely need to restore
>> the language as it reads in the Charter.  In addition, I don¹t think that at
>> this point the letter really says anything other than ³SCI is on hold and we
>> want you to let us know as soon as we can start work.²  I have to admit to
>> being baffled as to why the Council would want to put SCI on hold as to the
>> question of friendly amendments.  This is very unlikely to be a subject of
>> GNSO Review.  Is it possible that this was simply a sweeping gesture ­ as in,
>> ³we just don¹t have time to deal with this right now due to ICG deadlines for
>> accountability.²
>>  
>> I see that Avri is currently on the council agenda for 15 minutes on February
>> 7 and would suggest we ask them to move forward on the question of friendly
>> amendments.  SCI work should not stop as a result of the IANA transition.
>> Avri, would you be comfortable asking Council to let us proceed on the
>> subject of friendly amendments? (I think you were the only one who objected
>> to this previously.)
>>  
>> If so, I¹ll send another draft to the list.
