[Gnso-newgtld-dg] - Informational Materials

[Steve Chan]

Dear DG Members,

Staff committed to sending additional materials that may inform the work of
this group. Please review at your earliest convenience.
* In response to a GNSO Council resolution inviting the New gTLD Program
Committee of the ICANN Board to provide input to the current and future gTLD
application procedures, the ICANN Board passed the following resolution
available here 
(https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2014-11-17-en#2.
b). Contained within that resolution is Annex A, which highlights areas for
possible policy work. Staff recommends reviewing Annex A as it may spur
discussion on issues missed by this group and the expansion or updating of
already captured issues
(https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/resolutions-annex-a-17nov14-en.
pdf). 
* As there was some confusion about the process to request that the GNSO
Council initiate an Issue Report, please consult the information available
here: http://gnso.icann.org/en/node/31379/#Identification. As Marika
mentioned on the call on 8 December, there is a set of information that is
expected to be provided to allow the GNSO Council to make an informed
decision. Within the PDP Manual, there is recommended format for a request
for an Issue Report, which would certainly not prevent the DG from providing
information beyond the recommended elements (template on page 2 -
http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-16dec11-en.pdf).
Please feel free to discuss on list.

Best,



Steven Chan
