Re: [bc-gnso] FNOI - NTIA - IANA Contract

["Marilyn Cade " <marilynscade@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just so we all on the same page of understanding this critically important 
public notice, I will add this to the BC agenda for Singapore. 

It is not a gTLD/GNSO policy issue but has significant implications for ICANN 
in governance/success,  thus  the officers will  join me in assessing how best 
to address this issue, inform BC members broadly to help understand 
implications, including geo political issues, and how ICANN can best pursue its 
interest in retaining the IANA. 


It is both a technical and geo political issue. We will work to give the BC 
members facts, perspectives and dialogue. Whether the BC drafts comments is a 
separate issue and I am cautious on that front, but given governance issues, 
the BC will have a discussion in Singapore and thereafter, shortly after 
Singapore. 

If members want to discuss it bfly tomorrow on our call, raise it under AOB.

Mike,
 
I think that language is rather clear and unambiguous, thus not much need for 
speculation. 
 
Best regards,
 
Michael

There will no doubt be speculation as to whether the following language puts a 
new hurdle in the new gTLD process:

 

As such, the Draft SOW includes, in paragraph C.2.2.1.3.2, a requirement that 
delegation requests for new gTLDs include documentation demonstrating how the 
string proposed reflects consensus among relevant stakeholders and is 
supportive of the global public interest.
