*_Meeting Summary:_*
After roll call by Gisella, Ken Bour (acting for J. Scott who was
unable to attend) summarized the activities of the "Charter
Guidelines" and "Operating Model" sub-teams that took place between 6
May and today. He noted that, in the confusion after the last
conference call, only the "Charter Guidelines" sub-team actually met
(4 June) and, in a productive flourish, managed to complete its
outline. On 9 July, Ken posted a revised document outline that
reflects the consensus decision-making of that sub-team. Ken
accepted the group's invitation that Staff perform the initial
drafting work. As of 9 July, although a few sub-sections have been
started, there is much work remaining to be done. The newly
constituted "Charter Guidelines" outline is partitioned into three
major sections which can be viewed on the WIKI at:
https://st.icann.org/icann-ppsc/index.cgi?wg_team_charter. For the
benefit of the entire group, Ken walked through the revised outline
briefly and described the sub-team's process in resolving issues and
coming to consensus on the structure.
As the last chair of the "Operating Model" sub-team, Subbiah then led
a discussion as to how best to attack that outline. It was decided
to use time in Sydney, but to start with Roles & Responsibilities
(Section 2.0) on the current call. After about 30 minutes of
discussion, the group managed to complete the first sub-section (2.1),
"Introduction and Team Formation." Ken agreed to incorporate the
decisions made, clean up the outline for that section, and post to the
WIKI (completed 12 June, 1100 EDT) along with a new participant note
to explain the changes made.
The following Action Items were discussed and should guide the WG
Team's activities in the coming weeks.
*_ACTION 1:_* "Charter Guidelines" Sub-Team
Document: "Working Groups: Implementation and Charter Drafting
Guidelines (WG-ICDG)"
WIKI: https://st.icann.org/icann-ppsc/index.cgi?wg_team_charter
*Tasks:*
1) Review newly constituted outline and brief section
explanations -- provide comments
2) Staff: Begin drafting text to replace the explanatory
statements with actual guidelines
*_ACTION 2:_* "Operating Model" Sub-Team
Document: "Working Groups: Operating Model Guidebook" (WG-OMG)
WIKI: https://st.icann.org/icann-ppsc/index.cgi?wg_team_model
*Tasks:*
1) Between now and Sydney, add any additional
questions/clarifications on the current outline
2) Provide further review/input to Section 5.0-Products & Outputs
3) Prepare to resolve outstanding issues so that the outline can
be cleaned up during Sydney (*)
/(*) Based on the amount of time it took to complete Section 2.1,
there are potentially many hours of work involved in perfecting the
outline. Subbiah suggests that this sub-team meet at other times
during Sydney, as schedules permit, to continue this work. /
Pending approval by J. Scott, we are hoping to make arrangements to
have both sub-teams meet separately during Sydney to continue working
on their respective outlines.
A newly revised schedule appears below:
*_Revised "Rough" Schedule of Activities:_*
10 June WGT Conf Call:
Review progress and status of
document outlines from both sub-teams
21 June (TBD) Sub-teams meet in Sydney, AU (separately?)
Finalize "Operating Model" outline
and continue building "Charter Guidelines" draft language
July Sub-teams complete drafting activity
(dates/schedule TBD)
