RE: [gnso-ppsc] Action Items and notes from Today's call

["Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

 

I am pleased to welcome Greg Ruth and Tony Harris to the PPSC group.  They 
should be on the mailing list by now.

 

We have a good deal of work ahead of us.  I want to remind everyone about the 
deadlines in the notes below.  I will be contacting the PDP Drafting Team 
separately and hope that the Working Group Drafting Team will make progress as 
well.  Remember we have the 2 separate mailing lists now for the different work 
teams.

Finally, we need to know if anyone has any comments on the overall PPSC charter 
as soon as possible.


Thanks.

Subject: [gnso-ppsc] Action Items and notes from Today's call

 

All,

 

I know the call was recorded and it is my assumption there may be a transcript 
of the call.  However, in order to not lose momentum, I wanted to send around 
some notes I took during the call on the immediate action items.  These are my 
informal notes and should not be considered official minutes.  Please add any 
items I may have missed.

 

1.       Attendees on the call:

a.       Jeff Neuman (RyC)

b.       Avri Doria (NCA)/GNSO Council chair 

c.       Mike Rodenbaugh (CBUC) 

d.       J. Scott Evans (IPC) 

e.       Konstantinos Komaitis (NCUC) 

f.        Alan Greenberg - (ALAC)

g.       Liz Gasster and Marika Konings (ICANN staff); 

h.       Glen de Saint Géry (GNSO Secretariat)

 

2.       Chair / Alternate Chair

a.       Jeff Neuman elected as PPSC Chair

b.      J. Scott Evans elected as PPSC Alternate Chair

 

3.       Role of Alternates

a.       General consensus was that we encourage as much participation as 
possible and therefore alternates may be selected from any 
constituency/supporting organization/advisory committee.

b.      Where there is a "consensus call", if both the primary and alternate 
reps are on the call (or present at a meeting), only the primary may cast a 
response to the "consensus call"

c.       If only one rep is on the call where there is a "consensus call", then 
that rep may cast a response to the "consensus call".

d.      Please note the absence of the word "vote" as we are trying to move 
away from using that term.

e.      Also note that PPSC shall operate by consensus only unless a full 
consensus of the PPSC decides on another approach.

 

4.       Regular Meetings of the PPSC

a.       We initially decided that 20:00 UTC time on Wednesdays worked for all 
of the participants on the call.

b.      Initially, the calls would occur once every other week

c.       Next call scheduled for Wednesday, December 10, 2008 at 20:00 UTC.

 

5.       Work Teams

a.       Participants on call believed that we should stick with the 
recommendation of GNSO Council to establish two working teams:  PDP Team and 
Working Group Team with the PPSC members ensuring that work remains coordinated.

b.      Rationale was related to the large quantity of work in short time 
frames, the encouragement of a diversity of participants, and that differing 
expertise may be needed on the two separate groups.

c.       Although draft notes on the charters for each of the teams are on the 
Wiki, participants on call agreed that definitive charters for the teams were 
needed.   Participants on the call divided themselves into two drafting teams 
to begin that work.

d.      PDP Drafting team:  Jeff Neuman, Mike Rodenbaugh and Alan Greenberg

e.      Working Group Drafting Team:  J Scott Evans, Konstantinos Komatis and 
Avri Doria.

f.        ACTION ITEMS

                                                               i.      Need to 
hear from Registrar and ISP Constituencies on which drafting teams they would 
like to serve on ASAP.

                                                             ii.      Need to 
complete working team charters by December 10, 2008 meeting.

                                                            iii.      Mailing 
lists will be set up for each of the drafting teams.

                                                           iv.      In addition 
to charter, Drafting teams should also discuss milestones, time frames, etc. 
keeping in mind what needs to be accomplished by June transition date and what 
may be longer term action items.

g.       Notes:

                                                               i.      It is 
anticipated that the drafting team members may also serve on the actual work 
teams once established, but this is not required.

                                                             ii.      It is 
also anticipated that we will open up the work teams to additional interested 
members of the community.

                                                            iii.      Work 
Teams once established should operate by consensus only unless otherwise 
approved by full PPSC membership.

 

6.       PPSC Charter 

a.       The PPSC Charter is set forth in the October 16, 2008 Final Report of 
GNSO Improvements Implementation Plan (and also on the main PPSC Wiki Page).

b.      ACTION ITEM:  PPSC members should read the Charter and make any 
comments/ suggestions by no later than December 10, 2008.  If there are any 
comments, it is expected that such comments will be raised/addressed at the 
December 18, 2008 GNSO Council meeting.

 

7.       Miscellaneous

a.       Jeff and Liz to draft formal invitation to GAC to get its participation

b.      Liz/Jeff/Avri to figure out overall timeframes in order to have Council 
and Board address substance by June transition (which also needs to keep in 
mind relevant public comment periods).

 

Thank you to everyone for participating.  Again, these are my informal notes so 
please fill in anything I missed.
