Hi Philippe and everyone: 

In response to your requests for thoughts on the Board consultation and the letter received from the Board this past Friday, I have drafted some ideas for a statement in response. 

I welcome edits and questions. 

Given the timing, I am just sharing these same thoughts with the CPH EPDP members now also. 

Depending on the level of support this receives. It could be read on behalf of the Council and if not, the CPH or CPH EPDP team, and if not, just me. 

I hope it is clear and helpful

Best regards,

Kurt

> 1. The Council resolution called for a specific analysis: "Noting some of the questions surrounding the financial sustainability of SSAD and some of the concerns expressed within the different minority statements, the GNSO Council requests a consultation with the ICANN Board as part of the delivery of the GNSO Council Recommendations Report to the ICANN Board to discuss these issues, including whether a further cost-benefit analysis should be conducted before the ICANN Board considers all SSAD-related recommendations for adoption." 
>  
> The resolution doesn't request an "ODP"; it requests analysis of sustainability and cost-benefit. 
>  
> 2. The Board responded and stated, essentially, “we welcome the consultation and will create a methodology (the ODP) to address the issues raised.”
>  
> 3, The Council wrote: great, here are the items we think are necessary to accomplish the analysis of sustainability and cost-benefit (and listed the items in Philipp’s email below).
>  
> 4. Now Maarten has responded, "well, an ODP doesn’t cover those things."
>  
> In other words, the Council did not ask for an “ODP,” it requested analysis of financial sustainability and cost-benefit. The Board invented an ODP and then said, it does not apply to the request of the Council. 
>  
> In addition, the comment of the Council on the ODP draft was that there be transparency throughout the ODP process. In this most recent letter, the Board essentially states, we will have this consultation now and another when the ODP is complete. With that statement, I think we should pointedly discuss transparency, especially as one of the approaches that might lend itself well to SSAD is a phased or agile-like implementation.

> Again I apologize for the not-well-thought out blurt. I will attempt to draft a statement on behalf of the CPH for the meeting and can consult with any of you over the weekend on it.

> The Board also would like to remind the Council that the purpose of the ODP is to assess the operational impact of the SSAD-related policy recommendations on ICANN org and to inform the Board of these impacts prior to the Board's consideration of the policy recommendations. The ODP is not intended to determine whether the concept of the SSAD accounts for the cost and effort required to implement the proposed system. We believe this specific question has been addressed by the Council in approving the recommendations and forwarding them to the Board.
