[GNSO-RPM-WG] List of URS Individual Proposals & Suggested Support Levels

[Julie Hedlund]

Dear RPM PDP Working Group members,

 

In preparation for the Working Group meetings at ICANN63, session 1 and session 4, and in accordance with the attached Procedures for URS Policy and Operational Recommendations, staff have reviewed the WG deliberations as recorded in the meeting transcripts and chat rooms, and have produced the attached table with the staff’s suggested levels of support for the individual proposals. The co-chairs believe a good path forward is to allow all WG members to review and, if they wish, comment upon these preliminary designations of support.  For those attending ICANN63, please bring your comments to our first face-to-face (F2F) session on Sunday, 21 October at 15:15-16:45 local time. For those not attending the F2F meeting, please feel free to let us know  your thoughts online. 

 

Staff took its guidance from the following excerpt from Section 7 of the procedures, as agreed to by the WG:

 

“Unless there is substantial material opposition within the Working Group, Sub Team recommendations will be included in the Initial Report for the purpose of soliciting public comment thereon. To be clear, Sub Team recommendations have a rebuttable presumption, subject to WG feedback, of enjoying an adequate level of support to be included in the Initial Report for the purpose of soliciting community input; Sub Team proposals, like those from individuals, will only become Final Report recommendations if they achieve Full Consensus or Consensus.”

 

The Co-Chairs would like the WG to note the following with respect to these suggested levels of support:

 
These are preliminary and subject to review and deliberation by the WG at ICANN63;
WG members are encouraged to provide feedback on the suggested levels of support and in particular as to whether there are any mischaracterizations;
The levels of support and determination with respect to inclusion in the Initial Report will be based on the deliberations at ICANN63, with public comment requested on all proposals that garnered adequate support;
The Initial Report will note for the record individual proposals that failed to achieve adequate support;
The WG will have the opportunity to review the proposals as they appear in the draft Initial Report and propose revisions before the Initial Report is published for public comment.
 

Finally, if WG members have revised proposals they should submit them to the WG list no later than 23:59 UTC on Friday, 19 October so that they may be discussed at the sessions at ICANN63.

 

Best regards,

Mary, Julie, Ariel & Berry

On behalf of the RPM PDP Working Group Co-Chairs
