LOS ANGELES – 13 November 2020 – The Generic Names Supporting

Names and Numbers (ICANN) is seeking a neutral chair for the remaining 
Phase 2A work of the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on the 
Temporary Specification for Generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) Registration 
Data.

Candidates interested in serving in this role should review the

their application. The document details the role description, required

There will be no compensation associated with the role of the EPDP Team 
chair; however, travel associated with any face-to-face meetings may be 
supported by the ICANN org. Please note that face-to-face meetings are 
currently paused due to pandemic travel restrictions.

Expressions of Interest should be submitted to 
EOI-EPDPTeam-chair at icann.org 
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/Y0d0e0dNg0028002PRC0zE2>. By submitting 
your personal data, you agree that your personal data will be processed 
in accordance with the ICANN Privacy Policy 
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/HC002020Nge8eE00P2R00Ad>, and you agree to 
abide by the electronic Terms of Service 
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/v0080NeB0dPECgf2R022000>.

      Background on EPDP Phase 2A

The two remaining topics that are part of Phase 2A will be:

  * Legal vs. natural persons
  * Feasibility of unique contacts to have a uniform anonymized email
    address

Instructions for the EPDP Team to address the issues of Phase 2A:

 1. Legal vs. natural persons: The EPDP Team is expected to review the
    study <https://newsalerts.icann.org/v0080NeC0dPECgg2R022000>
    undertaken by ICANN org (as requested by the EPDP Team and approved
    by the GNSO Council during Phase 1), the legal guidance
    <https://newsalerts.icann.org/XdP0ghR0N000Ee082022CD0> provided by
    Bird & Bird LLP, as well as the substantive input provided on this
    topic during the Public Comment forum on the addendum
    <https://newsalerts.icann.org/V8Ri000de20E200CP02gEN0>. The Team
    will then answer:
     1. Whether any updates are required to the EPDP Phase 1
        recommendation on this topic ("Registrars and Registry Operators
        are permitted to differentiate between registrations of legal
        and natural persons, but are not obligated to do so
        <https://newsalerts.icann.org/a0200P022C0800jEFRNe0gd>.", Rec.
        #17, EPDP Phase 1 Final Report
        <https://newsalerts.icann.org/a0200P022C0800jEFRNe0gd>)
     2. What guidance, if any, can be provided to registrars and/or
        registries who differentiate between registrations of legal and
        natural persons.
 2. In relation to the feasibility of unique contacts obtaining a
    uniform anonymized email address, the EPDP Team is expected to
    review the legal guidance
    <https://newsalerts.icann.org/eN08GE02000RCe0202kPg0d> and consider
    specific proposals that provide sufficient safeguards to address
    issues flagged in the legal memo. Groups that requested additional
    time to consider this topic, which include the At-Large Advisory
    Committee (ALAC), Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC), and
    Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC), will be
    responsible to come forward with concrete proposals to address this
    topic. This consideration is expected to address:
     1. Whether or not a uniform anonymized email address for unique
        contacts is feasible and, if feasible, whether it should be a
        requirement.
     2. If feasible but not a requirement, what guidance, if any, can be
        provided to contracted parties who may want to implement uniform
        anonymized email addresses.

For clarity, the GNSO Council is not directing any particular outcome on 
either topic. As manager of the policy development process (PDP), it is 
sharing its expectations for which questions should be addressed as part 
of the EPDP Team's deliberations.

Consistent with the Policy Development Process Manual 
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/Y0d0e0lNg0028002PRC0HE2>, the GNSO Council 
does expect that all the required steps are followed in the 
consideration of these issues. These steps may include further Public 
Comment on an initial report as well as a final report that would be 
considered an addendum to the EPDP Phase 2 Final Report.

Additional information about the EPDP is located in the Annex-A1 of the 
ICANN Bylaws <https://newsalerts.icann.org/SR0E2d08P000NCg0200e2mI> and 
EPDP Manual <https://newsalerts.icann.org/L202ER0020Je0Cn8g0P0d0N>.

      About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global 
Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an 
address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That 
address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN 
helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. 
ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public benefit corporation 
with a community of participants from all over the world.
