RE: [gnso-dt-wg] today's domain tasting call
Thanks Liz. Subject to comments of this group by COB Thursday, I propose the following motion for a vote by Council on March 6th: Whereas, the GNSO Council has discussed the Issues Report on Domain Tasting and the Final Outcomes Report of the ad hoc group on Domain Tasting; Whereas, the GNSO Council resolved on 31 October 2007 to launch a PDP on Domain Tasting and to request Constituency Impact Statements with respect to issues set forth in the Issued Report and in the Final Outcomes Report; Whereas, the GNSO Council authorized on 17 January 2008 the formation of a small design team to develop a plan for the deliberations on the Domain Tasting PDP (the "Design Team"), the principal volunteers to which had been members of the Ad Hoc Group on Domain Tasting and were well-informed of both the Final Outcomes Report of the Ad Hoc Group on Domain Tasting and the GNSO Initial Report on Domain Tasting (collectively with the Issues Report, the "Reports on Domain Tasting"); Whereas, the Design Team has met and agreed on a Draft Motion [attached] to be set out for public comment and for Constituency Impact review; The GNSO Council RESOLVES: 1. The Draft Motion shall be posted for 21-day public comment on March 7, 2008. 2. Each Constituency shall have 21 days from March 7, 2008 to update its Constituency Impact Statement with respect to this motion, if it so chooses. The deadline for amended Statements shall be March 28, 2008, and this deadline shall not be extendible. 3. ICANN Staff shall provide a summary of any public comments and/or amended Constituency Impact Statements to the Council, via submission of a Final Report with respect to this PDP, by April 4, 2008. 4. The Design Team shall then meet and confer with respect to the Final Report, in order to consider any public comments and/or amended Constituency Impact Statements and to consider any suggested amendments to the Draft Motion, and shall recommend a Final Motion to be considered by Council for vote in its scheduled meeting April 17, 2008. 5. It is the intention of the GNSO for the Staff to produce a Board Report on this PDP for consideration by the ICANN Board, so the Board may vote on any recommendations of the GNSO with respect to this PDP, at the scheduled ICANN meeting in Paris in June, 2008 Thanks, Mike Rodenbaugh -----Original Message----- From: owner-gnso-dt-wg@xxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-gnso-dt-wg@xxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Liz Gasster Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2008 4:56 PM To: gnso-dt-wg@xxxxxxxxx Subject: [gnso-dt-wg] today's domain tasting call All, so far we have the following plan - please modify as appropriate: Mike Rodenbaugh is updating language (originally supplied by Jeff) for a revised motion for Council and public consideration. Our drafting group will propose that the draft motion be considered on the following time schedule: Council approves timeline and terms of reference for constituency statements (based on pending draft motion) on March 6. Staff posts request for public comment and constituency statements (including financial impact of measure specified in motion on each constituency, if adopted) by March 7, with a 21 day deadline, March 28. Staff prepares summary of public comments and constituency statements into a "final report" by April 4 and submits to the Council. Drafting group finalizes motion for Council consideration by 10 April, based on public comments and constituency impact statements Council acts on motion at 17 April meeting Assuming the motion is adopted, the hope of the drafting group is that the process could continue to assure Board adoption in Paris. Steps would include: Staff prepares Board report (within 5 calendar days) - by April 23 Then 30 days needed for Board to receive in advance of Paris - what else is needed? Liz to determine ASAP. Thanks! Liz Attachment:
