[council] Meeting Invitation | Modifying gTLD Consensus Policies with ICANN Org, GNSO Council and SG/C Chairs | Wednesday, 04 May 2022 at 13:00 UTC

Wed May 4 10:30:48 UTC 2022

Hi Tomslin: 

Thanks for engaging prior to the meeting!

I think your solution, while complete on paper, might impose an undue or impossible burden on working groups and PDP teams. 

From personal experience, I know the Phase 1 EPDP Team on Registration Data was both spent and had no interest in diving into the conflicts. In hindsight, such a consideration would likely have doubled the Phase I timeline. In addition, an uninterested team will not fashion effective solutions.

I say “impossible” because, the PDP teams might not have the necessary expertise to resolve the conflicts. (I’d say likely not.) Experts on registration data might not be experts on the transfer policy. 

I think there should be flexibility in the process — each one of these instances will be different. The working group should have the flexibility to address the issue if so inclined and capable. The Council should be able to fashion other approaches depending on the situation and (if it makes sense) be able to have that substantive discussion prior to approving the recommendations. 

I hope this is helpful in some way.

Thank you again, 

Kurt

Given that limitation, the Council could not entertain a discussion of the possible collision between the new recommendations and existing policy. Then, according to this draft that we are considering, the instant the Council approves the recommendation, it can discuss amendment of the same recommendations.

The PDP should be amended to allow the Council to conduct substantive discussions in cases where the Council deems they would be efficient and are necessary.
