Affirmation of Commitment Reviews Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer
Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) | Call for Volunteer Members: Representing ICANN
Advisory Committees and Supporting Organizations; and Serving as Independent
Experts


16 August 2013

Volunteer applications due by 1 October 2013


Overview


In line with the
<https://www.icann.org/en/about/agreements/aoc/affirmation-of-commitments-30
sep09-en.htm> Affirmation of Commitments (AoC) requirements, and as
<https://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/documents/resolutions-18jul13-en.htm#
2.b> directed by the ICANN Board, ICANN invites interested individuals to
apply for volunteer Review Team Member positions - either in representation
of a Supporting Organization or Advisory Committee, or as an Independent
Expert - to serve on the Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice
Review Team (CCT-RT). The Review Team will work in two phases:

*       Phase One will occur as soon as the Review Team is appointed, and
involves evaluating various metrics to be collected by ICANN as proposed by
the GNSO Council, ALAC, and others, as appropriate, and developing
recommendations for the set of metrics to be collected by ICANN in
preparation for the upcoming review of the New gTLDs, as described in Phase
Two. 
*       Phase Two will occur after new gTLDs have been in operation for one
year, and involves examining data to assess the extent to which the
introduction or expansion of gTLDs has promoted competition, consumer trust,
and consumer choice. Additionally, the Review Team will evaluate the
effectiveness of the application and evaluation process, as well as the
safeguards put in place by ICANN to mitigate issues involved in the
introduction or expansion of new gTLDs.
*       Once the proposed metrics are delivered to the Board at the
conclusion of Phase One, the Review Team's work will be suspended until the
new gTLDs have been in operation for one year. In the interim, ICANN will
develop the systems and collect the metrics approved through this process.
*       The composition of the Review Team will be confirmed at the start of
Phase Two, but is expected to comprise the same members from Phase One.
Because of the phased approach and the extended duration of the work for
this review, Review Team members may be replaced as appropriate.

Candidatures are to be submitted to  <mailto:rtcandidatures@xxxxxxxxx>
rtcandidatures@xxxxxxxxx by 1 October 2013 - 23:59 UTC.
