[Ws2-hr] Proposed Agenda August 15 19:00 UTC

Tue Aug 15 18:59:49 UTC 2017

I support the proposed text.

Couple of points: 1) The UNGP is a framework (not a mechanism) the scope 
of which goes far beyond what is in the bylaws, as was mentioned 
previously in this list and as has been discussed at considerable 
length; 2) the text rules out nothing - it merely says that ICANN the 
org will decide which tool to use (if ICANN the org were to decide to 
use the UNGP framework it would make that decision, not this WG); 3) no 
particular mechanism or tool is prescribed, nor should it be - that is a 
position the WG has been pretty clear on from the start of these 
discussions when trying to delineate between interpretation and 
implementation; 4) the suggestion of remedy or remediation has not been 
discussed nor, as far as I am aware, has it been called out in the 
public consultation submissions, and were it even agreed (and I do not 
support its inclusion) it is far beyond the remit of this group to make 
such a determination.

Really sad to see such little accommodation to the input from three engaged Governments in the multistakeholder effort. Seems it will be difficult to explain internally how not even a mention to the universally accepted standard is included as a potential guideline for ICANN Org...

Whether and, if so, what mechanism to choose is solely up to ICANN the organization to decide. No such assessment should directly or indirectly impact gTLD policy formation or execution without being fully consistent with existing processes and protocols.  The results of the organization's analysis should be reflected in its annual reporting"
