RE: [gnso-raa-dt] Proposed agenda for: RAA call details / Monday 03 August 1900 UTC

["Tim Ruiz" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

One motion, three resolutions:

1. Support the set of amendments
2. GNSO/ALAC to draft a registrant rights charter
3. Drafting Team to discuss further amendments to RAA

But the point is, we did not and do not consider these a combined
effort.

Looks like one resolution to me . . . 

20090304-2 

Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) motion 

Motion made by Tim Ruiz
Seconded by Kristina Rosette

Whereas, the Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) has not been
amended since May 2001, and ICANN has undertaken a lengthy consultative
process related to amending the RAA, including several public comment
periods and consultations;

Whereas, the proposed changes to the RAA include important compliance
and enforcement tools for ICANN; The Council wishes to approve the set
of proposed amendments as quickly as possible so that the ICANN Board
may review them, and if approved then implement them as quickly as
possible; and

Whereas,

The Council would like to proceed on the drafting of a charter
identifying registrant rights that registrars would be obliged to link
to, as contemplated in the set of amendments;

The Council would like a specific process and timeline to move forward
with additional potential amendments to the RAA; and

The Registrar Constituency is supportive of these efforts and is willing
to participate on a good faith basis on anticipated next steps.

Resolved:

The GNSO Council supports the RAA amendments as documented in
http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/current-list-proposed-raa-amendments-16dec08.pdf
and recommends to the Board that they be adopted at its meeting of March
6, 2009;

Within 30 days of Board approval of the set of amendments,
representatives from the GNSO community and the ALAC shall be identified
to participate in drafting a registrant rights charter, as contemplated
by the amendments and the current GNSO Council discussions, with support
from ICANN staff. A draft charter shall be completed no later than July
31 2009; and

Within 30 days of Board approval of the set of amendments, the GNSO
Council will form a Drafting Team to discuss further amendments to the
RAA and to identify those on which further action may be desirable. The
Drafting Team should endeavor to provide its advice to the Council and
ICANN staff no later than July 31, 2009.

Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.

Not sure that we even need a Chair for either of these efforts. And they
will not work well unless separated. They are NOT related, it was not
discussed as if they were, and the RrC never agreed that they were a
combined effort. That's why there were two resolutions.

Thanks for this.

My personal suggestion would be for someone who was neither on ALAC 
nor the GNSO Council to chair - as part of the effort to spread the 
work beyond official councils, i.e as part of the new council as 
policy manager effort

I also think we should appoint someone to act as a GNSO council 
liaison(s) to the group. You are already doing several of these, but 
we can discuss that in the next council meeting.

As for non-contracting parties versus contracting parties, one idea 
may be to have 2 co-chairs, with one from each house.

Thanks
