Subject: [gnso-osc-ccc] Sydney meeting 


Greetings team members –

 

For those of you in Sydney, I trust you had safe travels.  From the looks of 
the rain, it seems we’re definitely here for winter.

 

Tomorrow’s meeting is scheduled for 11:15-12:30, Sydney time.  Glen has sent 
remote participation details for those of you not in town.

 

Our agenda, I believe, will be the following – please let me know if you have 
additions:

 

1.      Call to order
2.      Roll call
3.      Subgroup updates

        a.      Tasks 1 and 2: Website requirements and document management 
(Steve, Chris, and Ken) See Draft Business Requirements 
<https://st.icann.org/data/workspaces/icann-osc/attachments/osc_communications_team:20090610185237-1-24891/original/Bus%20Rqmts%20Template-GNSO%20Website%20(CCT%20v1.1).pdf>
 
        b.      Task 3 -- Soliciting meaningful feedback (Helen and Zbynek)
        c.      Task 4 -- Improve Coordination with ICANN Structures (Mason)

4.      Discussion points since last meeting

        a.      Main Discussion Points:
                1. Ken Bour explained that v1.0 of the Business Requirements 
document was reviewed and analyzed by Marc Salvatierra of Corporate Affairs. 
Marc made a number of excellent suggestions and language changes that were 
reviewed by the CCT Sub-Team and a new Version 1.1 has been published that 
incorporates Marc's edits.
                2. The new Business Requirements v1.1, if not previously 
submitted to the OSC, is recommended for distribution at this stage.
                3. Ken agreed to send a letter thanking Marc for his assistance 
on behalf of the CCT. (Sent to Kieren McCarthy, General Manager-Corporate 
Affairs, on 10 June.)
                4. Steve Holsten asked about next steps and Ken described the 
essence of a conference call (held on 03 June) that included Kieren McCarthy, 
Marc Salvatierra, Rob Hoggarth, and Ken Bour. Kieren and Marc are from ICANN 
Corporate Affairs, which has the overall responsibility for all web content. 
Tentative results from the call include:
                --The GNSO Website Replacement Project will fall under the 
auspices of Corporate Affairs.
                --Funding and budgeting, as appropriate, will be worked out 
between Corporate Affairs and Policy Development.
                --Rob Hoggarth, Senior Policy Director, will act as the 
Project’s primary Sponsor.
                --Marc Salvatierra and his team (including Drupal 
sub-contractors) will provide the technical and programming skills/resources 
needed to develop the new online presence using the Business Requirements 
document (v1.1) as a baseline.
                --Corporate Affairs will be responsible for 
recommending/deciding all technical infrastructure and design parameters 
essential to preserving this project’s consistency and interoperability within 
ICANN’s architectural guidelines and principles.
                --Marc’s team will work collaboratively and interactively with 
the CCT to prototype designs, information architecture (e.g. taxonomy), and 
navigation.
                --Ken will make arrangements to spend 1-2 days in Marina del 
Rey in early July (to be confirmed) with Marc for the purposes of jointly 
developing a high level tactical plan, including rough timetable, for the work 
in Phase I. Ken will take responsibility for conveying that plan, once approved 
by Corp Affairs and Policy Staff, to the CCT.
                5. Ken noted that the next phase of this project will begin in 
earnest post-Sydney in the mid-July timeframe pending completion of the 
planning step.

 

5.      All other business
6.      Adjourn

 

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

 

Mason
