[gnso-ppsc-pdp] For your review - updated version of PDP-WT Final Report

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

Please find posted on the wiki 
(https://community.icann.org/display/gnsoppsc/Next+Meeting) an updated version 
of the Final Report. This version includes the proposed language to address the 
Board vote (see section 8 on page 45-46 of the pdf) and transition / 
applicability (see section 13 on page 46-47 of the pdf). We also would like to 
raise the following issues:

 *   Recommendation 22 – Clarification in scope: this recommendation originally 
said that 'this information would be required in the request for an Issue 
Report' which is no longer consistent with recommendation #4, so the suggestion 
would be to change this to 'this information should be included in the request 
for an Issue Report'. Also, as a point of clarification, we would suggest 
adding a footnote to clarify that the Office of the General Counsel will 
formally opine on the issue of scope as part of the Issue Report.
 *   Recommendation 30 – Implementation, impact and feasibility:  The list of 
items identified here – as well as the language used to describe them (“privacy 
and other rights”;“operations” – whose operations are being discussed?; 
scalability of what?; feasibility to whom) are quite vague and could be the 
subject of great debate among WG members. In addition, WG members might lack 
the expertise to carry out such an impact analysis. Also, including this as 
part of the Initial Report (see section 5.10) might be premature as based on 
input received during public comments, the WG might decide to change or modify 
recommendations which would make earlier research obsolete. Maybe it would be 
more appropriate to include the task of impact analysis as part of the 
Implementation Review Team (recommendation #43) which could work together with 
ICANN Staff to conduct such analysis if/when deemed appropriate. Instead 
Working Groups could be encouraged to provide their views on impact / 
feasibility to the extent possible, but would not be required to do so.

With best regards,

Marika
