Responding now to your second message (or was it first?). Comment in line in [brackets].<br><br>Speaking now as a co-chair:<br><br>*If the small group believes this is a final version ready for full WG consideration, the next step would be to have that discussion and see if it satisfies the same criteria to become a WG recommendation that was applied for the Initial Report (we are long past the point for further Final Report consideration/inclusion of proposals from individuals, or even groups of individuals)<br><br>[Thanks Phil. Unfortunately, because the deadline of this Friday was not disclosed on the last call and only came out today when Staff mentioned it, the co-chairs (assuming you are speaking for the other two - it's not clear) seem to have put us in a pickle where there is not time to take a roll call of the small group prior to tomorrow's call. But for reasons noted below, I don't think that is an issue. What can be said is that what I sent around today is the result of a small group call, a WG call, and two days on the list. All of the comments were helpful improvements and there weren't many comments. To now suggest the proposal might not be considered is quite the surprise! Importantly, I don't know of any written rules or procedures for small groups that require some sort of small group vote before something comes back to the full WG for discussion. Where can I find that? Surely if such a rule existed the time for that to happen was prior to our last call when this was discussed by the full WG (however briefly due to your intervention asking that it be given only a small amount of time) and proposed changes were made as a result. Even if such a rule exists, and again I can't find it in the GNSO Operating Procedures, surely the ship has sailed on it. Instead of finding ways to block further consideration of work products discussed in small group, in the full WG, and on the list for days, let's find a way to have the WG look over what was done here and get to a conclusion.]<br><br>*If the proposal receives the requisite level of support vs. opposition to be considered a WG recommendation, the co-chairs will discuss and determine, in consultation with support staff, whether it should be put out for 21 days public comment under the standards contained in the GNSO WG Guidelines<br><br>[Great news! This comment makes me believe that you will in fact give this the air time it needs tomorrow.]<br><br>I believe that is the correct procedure, but I'm sure that staff will chime in if it's not.<br><br>[I'm not sure if this comment refers only to the last bullet, if so I agree. If it refers to both bullets, I don't fully agree for the reasons noted above.]<br><br>I would also note that it is possible that when the co-chairs and liaison confer with staff for our next planning meeting scheduled on the morning of Wednesday, September 9, we may opt to submit a short-term (likely 30 day) Project Change Request to Council regardless of what happens with this PDDRP proposal. Staff has already alerted us to concern that any unexpected delay in the Final Report review or Consensus Call last steps could make it impossible to meet our current deadline, and submission of a PCR by September 14th is our last opportunity to make the request as a safety measure.<br><br>[Thanks for letting us know this. Sounds like a short extension is needed.]<br><br>Rest assured that the co-chairs are all dedicated to the proposition that the Final Report will be delivered to Council prior to Thanksgiving (which, for non-US members, is November 26th).<br><br>[I will miss the calls and email, but a quiet Thanksgiving, especially after all that 2020 has turned out to be, sounds lovely.]<br><br>Best,<br>Paul<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#97999B'>To receive regular COVID-19 updates from Taft, </span><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#A22831'><a href="https://secure-web.cisco.com/1gHEugF09GVCWBFD32miQqcdQyj2By3GsToR7r1LTn77kUeYmfkt1tqQSkgfRrMY9nD5F2jQNGAtiZx-beBxuo7tOIcjVWk3My2TBzWw-pJIwo9DHytw9VuPdHdYcOTeYgjDQCnY4UXSy3YGQ_TExT1g0rPEhInbG9t_ZX2g3BxhoriCwcZ3bHW23esAnk4a9jCUby2fr_12gMtqE9UAcl38LOc3I4e1qV8d7pmBuBlQGs80yF__5H5QUtdTHqqXRpUVEJiArkEzrlKXWqMYGyA/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.taftlaw.com%2Fgeneral%2Fsubscribe"><span style='color:#A22831'>subscribe here</span></a></span><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#97999B'>.

Good to know that now, although now it is quite difficult to try to reconvene with short notice on a holiday weekend. Even so, since the only change that was made from the call was the addition of the work "significantly" before where "higher" appears, and since Marc introduced language to deal with the question of whether or not registries sell domain names ("or otherwise making available for registration"), and since we don't really have time to reconvene the small group, I suggest we simply put this back on the agenda for tomorrow's call. Small group members can either support it or not on the call as can working group members. Ultimately, the small group can't dictate an outcome either way, so missing a deadline to discuss the very reasonable addition of "significantly" and seems like process over substance. Toward that end, attached is the latest version for discussion tomorrow.<br><br><br><br>Thanks!<br><br><br><br>Best,<br><br>Paul<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>To receive regular COVID-19 updates from Taft, subscribe here [taftlaw.com].

They wouldn't likely be able to make a decision on whether to include a new Public Comment Period until the WG has decided what to do with the final language from the Small Team. The PCR must be filed by the Document and Motion deadline of Monday, 14 Sept, so it has to be finalized next week, the earlier the better. So, unfortunately there really isn't much time. I hope that's more explanation for why we'd need to get this done on Friday in order to have it in front of the WG on Tuesday.<br><br><br><br>Kind regards,<br><br>Julie<br><br><br><br>From: "McGrady, Paul D." <<a href="mailto:PMcGrady@taftlaw.com">PMcGrady@taftlaw.com</a>><br>Date: Wednesday, September 2, 2020 at 5:22 PM<br>To: Julie Hedlund <<a href="mailto:julie.hedlund@icann.org">julie.hedlund@icann.org</a>>, BECKHAM Brian <<a href="mailto:brian.beckham@wipo.int">brian.beckham@wipo.int</a>>, "McAuley, David" <<a href="mailto:dmcauley@Verisign.com">dmcauley@Verisign.com</a>>, Zak Muscovitch <<a href="mailto:zak@muscovitch.com">zak@muscovitch.com</a>>, Greg Shatan <<a href="mailto:gregshatanipc@gmail.com">gregshatanipc@gmail.com</a>><br>Cc: Ariel Liang <<a href="mailto:ariel.liang@icann.org">ariel.liang@icann.org</a>>, "<a href="mailto:kathy@dnrc.tech">kathy@dnrc.tech</a>" <<a href="mailto:kathy@dnrc.tech">kathy@dnrc.tech</a>>, "Corwin, Philip" <<a href="mailto:pcorwin@verisign.com">pcorwin@verisign.com</a>>, Mary Wong <<a href="mailto:mary.wong@icann.org">mary.wong@icann.org</a>><br>Subject: RE: [GNSO-RPM-WG] [Ext] RE: Small Group for proposed amendments to TM-PDDRP<br><br><br><br>Thanks Julie. I don't think we need to cram this in on Friday. If the co-chairs reach a decision that it needs to go out for public comment then we will need a change request no matter what. If the co-chairs decide that it does not need to go out for public comment, we have plenty of time. So, I think we should try to schedule this for next week after the holiday when people are more likely to be back at their desks, especially David M. who has been very helpful getting this refined.<br><br><br><br>Best,<br><br>Paul<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>To receive regular COVID-19 updates from Taft, subscribe here [taftlaw.com].

However, I think we may be jumping to the conclusion that the proposed amendments to the TM-PDDRP that are designed to prevent circumventing the mandatory RPMs imposed by ICANN or restricting brand owners' reasonable use of the Sunrise rights protection mechanism would need to be put out to public comment. The WG has already settled on Sunrise Recommendation #2 which is essentially the same idea:<br><br><br><br>"Sunrise Recommendation #2 The Working Group recommends that the Registry Agreement for future new gTLDs includes a provision stating that a Registry Operator shall not operate its TLD in such a way as to have the effect of circumventing the mandatory RPMs imposed by ICANN or restricting brand owners' reasonable use of the Sunrise rights protection mechanism."<br><br><br><br>Also, the idea of improvements to the TM-PDDRP came directly from public comment.

You will therefore not need to wait for there to be a full draft report to exercise this option (though staff advises that any such items should be consolidated and posted as a single public comment proceeding and not on a piecemeal basis)."
