Yes Rosemary, I would consider this to be a friendly amendment, noting that I think you meant the '2nd Whereas' clause instead of the '2nd Resolve' clause.

 

Olga, do you also accept this as friendly?

Hi Chuck

 

NCSG have been looking at the motion re Rec6 CWG

 

Would you regard the following as a friendly amendment?

 

.... change the wording of the 2nd RESOLVED clause, which currently reads:

 

"WHEREAS, numerous stakeholders have expressed concerns about the proposed implementation of the GNSO Council's Recommendation 6 regarding procedures for addressing culturally objectionable and/or sensitive strings;"

 

to (proposed changes in bold) -

 

"WHEREAS, various stakeholders have expressed concerns about the proposed implementation of the GNSO Council's Recommendation 6 regarding strings that contravene generally-accepted legal norms relating to morality and public order that are recognized under international principles of law;"

 

To many of our members as well as NCSG colleagues on this working group, the new wording is a more accurate description of what Rec 6 states, as opposed to a broader concept of cultural "sensitivities" or "objectionable" strings.

 

Cheers

 

Rosemary

It was suggested to me that it would be a good idea to document our support for the community working group that the GAC requested to discuss new gTLD recommendation 6 on morality and public order.  In follow-up to that suggestion, I am making the following motion.

Chuck

Motion To Support A Cross Community Working Group On New gTLD Recommendation 6

WHEREAS, ICANN aims to ensure that the New gTLD Program contains appropriate safeguards to address culturally objectionable and/or sensitive strings, while protecting internationally recognized freedom of expression rights;

WHEREAS, numerous stakeholders have expressed concerns about the proposed implementation of the GNSO Council's Recommendation 6 regarding procedures for addressing culturally objectionable and/or sensitive strings;

WHEREAS, the GNSO Council desires to participate in a joint working group with other interested Supporting Organizations (SO's) and Advisory Committee (AC's) to provide guidance to the ICANN new gTLD Implementation Team and the ICANN Board with regard to the implementation of recommendation 6;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT:

RESOLVED, that the GNSO Council supports the formation of a cross-community working group to provide guidance to the ICANN new gTLD Implementation Team and the ICANN Board with regard to the implementation of recommendation 6;

RESOLVED FURTHER, that Stéphane Van Gelder shall serve as the GNSO Council Liaison for this cross-community working group until 13 September 2010;
