[CWG-Stewardship] Final response from DT-M regarding public comments

[Martin Boyle]

I struggle to imagine why the ICANN Board (any more than the PTI Board) would want to initiate an SIFR, in particular without the support of the community.  Worse, I would feel that there would be a “cunning plan” somewhere behind such a decision and that leaves me seriously questioning why we would want this process to be triggered in such a way.  No support for an SIFR, no overriding ICANN (or PTI) Board to ignore interests of the community.
If someone can see possible reasons, I’d like to hear them.  Then any trigger route could be defined (and limited) more carefully.

But what would the thresholds be?  And, currently an SIFR comes as a result of other mechanisms being exhausted as well as the IANA probems resolution process.

The Special IFR would be triggered by a supermajority vote of each of the ccNSO and GNSO Councils according to their normal procedures for determining supermajority.

Would we require a supermajority of only the Board, or in addition to the ccNSO and GNSO.  And as a result of the mechanisms being exhausted?  I would assume so.

Good catch Avri and good question. Can anyone think of a  reason why the

ICANN Board should not be able to request an SIFR?

Hi,



I am part of DT-M and partly responsible for this.



But.  It has a cost, which I did mention on the DT-M list:



There is currently no mechanism defined for the Board to initiate a SIFR.



Should there be?

Here is DT-M's final proposed response to comment review tool item #

246 regarding AFRALO's suggestion that the PTI Board be allowed to

initiate a SIFR directly:  *"DT M carefully considered the

recommendation to allow the PTI Board to initiate a Special IFR but

decided against that while at the same time noting that the PTI Board

could request that the ICANN Board consider doing so."*







If there are any questions, please let me know.
