[Gnso-newgtld-wg] [Ext] RE: Proposed Agenda: New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Working Group, 2 May 2017 at 03:00 UTC

Tue May 2 00:39:22 UTC 2017

Dear Anne,

If I am understanding your comment/suggestion properly, staff has attempted to incorporate the issues raised by you and Kristina Rosette in the last sentence of the comments to Recommendation 14. I’ve extracted that sentence for your consideration here: 

“Finally, it would be helpful if the CCT-RT would clarify how the reference to “relationship of content of a gTLD to its name” is consistent with Section 1.1(c) of the ICANN Bylaws.”

If you do not feel that this sentence adequately captures your concerns, you can suggest updated text in the Google doc directly and/or discuss the topic during the upcoming call.

Best,

Steve

Thank you.  Regarding the proposed change to the comments as to Recommendation 14, I think this question would have to be rephrased to ask how the Recommendation fits within the Mission specified in 1.1 (a).  The reason for this is that the big “carve-out” from 1.1 (c) is the “express scope of Section 1.1(a)”:  

So it seems the question in the draft comment to Recommendation 14 would have to be “How is this recommendation consistent with the express scope of ICANN’s Mission as set forth in Section 1.1(a) of the ByLaws?”

The draft comment currently says:

“On the 10 April WG call, members of the CCT-RT provided additional context for this recommendation. According to the CCT-RT members, research findings indicate that end users expect to see a relationship between TLDs and the meaning of the string and/or usage of associated domains. It seems that the spirit of this recommendation is to create incentives to encourage that correlation, so as  to promote user trust.”

Section 1.1(a) of the ByLaws provides:

Section 1.1. MISSION

(a) The mission of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers

(“ICANN”) is to ensure the stable and secure operation of the Internet’s

unique identifier systems as described in this Section 1.1(a) (the “Mission”).

Specifically, ICANN:

(i) Coordinates the allocation and assignment of names in the root zone

of the Domain Name System (“DNS”) and coordinates the

development and implementation of policies concerning the

registration of second-level domain names in generic top-level

domains (“gTLDs”). In this role, ICANN’s scope is to coordinate the

development and implementation of policies:

• For which uniform or coordinated resolution is reasonably

necessary to facilitate the openness, interoperability, resilience,

security and/or stability of the DNS including, with respect to

gTLD registrars and registries, policies in the areas described in

Annex G-1 and Annex G-2; and

• That are developed through a bottom-up consensus-based

multistakeholder process and designed to ensure the stable and

secure operation of the Internet’s unique names systems.
