My sincere apologies, I didn't read my calendar and thought it was an hour later.

I will catch-up and do any follow-ups once the transcript is released.

Again, my sincere apologies.

Christa

Hi,

As announced, our first meeting is schedule for Tuesday 16 August at 15UTC.
You should have all received an invitation already.

The meeting will last 1 hour and as this is the first meeting, I will be chairing, hopefully for the last time.

The Agenda for this first meeting:

0) Review Agenda

 1) Discuss SOI and the like - All participants in the  group must submit SOI, preferably before the first meeting.  For the most part, members of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures group will have already done so, but anyone who has not done so is requested to take care of this.

2)  Pick Leadership for the Track 1 Sub Team.  This can be one person or several who share the responsibilities, it is up to the group.  The requirement is for at least one person to take on the task.

Responsibilities include:

  *   Coordinating the efforts of the Sub Team
  *   Communicating the status of the Sub Team to the rest of the
    leadership team and the full WG.  This includes participating in a
    weekly leadership call to keep the work moving and coordinated.
  * Working with staff and the WG co-chairs as needed to get the work
    done, which includes developing the content for the full WG meetings
    and WG reports.
  * Acting with neutrality toward the Sub Team participants and the
    issues being dealt with within the group in the effort to help the
    group come to consensus on preliminary recommendations.  All
    recommendation will be brought to the full group for discussion and
    possible approval as PDP WG recommendations.

I suggest that there be a discussion on this list before the meeting where anyone who wishes to volunteer speaks up. Also feel free to nominate those who you believe would be good in the role.  Note that that 2 co-chairs of the WG have disqualified themselves from this role.

A list of Sub Team participants can be found at <https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60493239>

The decision on Sub Team  leadership is the first consensus decision the group needs to make.

3) Discussion on Sub Team meeting schedule.  The current plan it to rotate all the Sub Team meetings between two time slots: 15UTC and 20UTC across all
5 days of the week.  Each team will be expected to meet at least every other week, but will be able to meet more often if the Sub Team decides it is necessary.  While scheduling outside these two time bands is theoretically possible, the current schedule of other meetings makes that challenging. It is also possible to add a third time band or to stick to a single 1 time slot as the Sub Team decides.

4) Walk through the work items for the Sub Team.  These are found at <https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=60490732>

Among the first tasks of the Sub Team will be to decide:

  * how they want to work through the issues,
  * to look at prioritization of issues
  * to refine the schedule currently posted for these activities. The
    current schedule is found at:
 
<https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/58001972/Policy%20Developm
ent%20Next%20Phase%20New%20gTLD%20-%20FY16-FY17%20Gantt%20Chart%20%282%29.pd
f?version=1&modificationDate=1464724382000&api=v2>

In this first meeting we will only talk through the work items for clarification, the work will start in earnest with the next meeting, but it would be good to keep these issues in mind.

One note: Among the items on this Sub Teams list is:

  * Accreditation Programs: As there appears to be a limited set of
    technical service and Escrow providers, would the program benefit
    from an accreditation program for third party service providers? If
    so, would this simplify the application process with a set of
    pre-qualified providers to choose from? Are there other impacts that
    an accreditation program may have on the application process?


As this conversation already has been discussed a bit in the full group as an issue that might be able to proceed in parallel with the work of the PDP WG, the group is invited to consider taking this up early in its schedule.

5) AOB - if there is time.
 

 Thanks and talk to you then

avri
