Using the guidance in the CPIF as well as in the Predictability Framework they will make a recommendation as to whether this is (a) an issue that should go through the GNSO, (b) should be an issue worked out between Applicants and ICANN Org, (c) should be worked out by ICANN Org alone, or (d) follow some other process. If this standing IRT recommends option (a), then the GNSO will decide whether it should be a full pdp, expedited pdp, GGP or something else.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>It would help if others weigh in.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Thanks.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><b><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#0F9347'>Jeffrey J.

Mostly agree with the tweaks but I honestly still do not understand the notion that “implementation phase ends when the program is launched”. That was not at all what was discussed in the Policy and Implementation Working Group. In fact, there are provisions that call for reconvening of IRT. So the main question I am trying to address in order to avoid a conflict between the GNSO Input, Guidance, and Expedited PDP processes is: When does this Predictability Framework kick in? In fact, the case studies done by P &I WG were virtually all post-launch of the 2012 program if “launch” is tied to receiving applications. The intent of GNSO Input, Guidance, and Expedited PDP framework was that it exists well beyond launch. That is why I have always been confused by this discussion and the lack of correlation between the two remedies. So I call Predictability Framework a fourth mechanism because you call policy number 1, implementation number 2 and Predictability Framework number 3.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>The policy and implementation Working Group determined through its case studies that when issues arise during implementation (including after launch, e.g. name collisions and RPM issues), it is fruitless to try to determine whether the issue involved is either policy or implementation, but that the remedy is to make sure that if enough people believe the issue involves some controversy, we need find a way to get it back to the GNSO. (This work actually all resulted from your letter to the Board objecting to the implementation of the Strawman Solution without coming back to the GNSO for advice.) Staff commented they wanted direction and didn’t want to be in the middle of this controversy. In fact, it was Marika who pointed out that nobody should waste time trying to determine whether the issue was a policy issue or an implementation issue. (You will recall Fadi said it was implementation.) This particular issue may have been pre-launch but many other case studies we reviewed were not pre-launch. So to my mind, your examples in the chart are confusing because several of them would clearly be covered by GNSO Input, Guidance, or Expedited PDP procedures which can easily kick in post-launch.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>But – to answer the question about “fourth”:</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=1><li class=MsoNormal style='color:#1F497D;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo1'><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Policy</span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:#1F497D;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo1'><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Implementation (which we have seen can involve policy issues)</span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:#1F497D;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo1'><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>CPIF – including GNSO Input, GNSO Guidance, and GNSO Expedited PDP procedures where issues arise (GNSO determines how serious the issue is)</span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:#1F497D;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo1'><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Predictability Framework – but several of the items in the chart actually fit in an existing CPIF process. (this is why I say “fourth”) I don’t think calling this “changes to operations” actually creates a different category from those that were considered by the Policy & Implementation Working Group. “Changes to operations” is just another word for “implementation” as nearly as I can tell. In other words, there are already existing mechanisms to deal with many of the examples given in the chart – as enumerated in Item 3. If there are Items we want to back out of the CPIF existing mechanisms or if we truly believe there is a timing difference, that needs to be further illuminated. </span></span><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><o:p></o:p></span></li></ol><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Yes – this was discussed on many calls and the Report should reflect those discussions.
