Re: [gnso-rap-dt] Updated Registration Abuse Policies workshop programme

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

It occurred to me after our call that we did not consider SSAC participation in 
the workshop, despite their activities in this area and their request for 
collaboration. It might be appropriate to invite them to participate in the 
last panel discussion on 'what role for ICANN' like the group has done with the 
other constituencies and ALAC. If there are no objections, I would propose I 
contact Steve Crocker to discuss whether he or another SSAC representative 
would be available and interested to participate.

With best regards,

Marika

Dear All,

Following our call today, please find attached the updated programme for the 
Registration Abuse Policies workshop. For those of you that were not able to 
participate, please note that the only changes that were made relate to 
speakers and time allocated to the first topic. We would like to post the 
background information and topics as soon as possible on the Mexico City 
website, so if there are any concerns in relation to the content, please share 
this with the list as soon as possible.

As you will have noted, Mike Rodenbaugh has shared the draft programme (without 
names of speakers) with the Council to inform them before their call tomorrow 
about the programme. On the call tomorrow, Mike will use the opportunity to 
reach out to the ISP, NCUC and ALAC constituencies to put forward a 
representative to participate in the workshop. ICANN staff will follow up on 
this invitation. In addition, some small edits were made to the questions 
raised by Chuck (see below). If there are any concerns about these edits, 
please share your views with the list.

Those of you presenting are invited to share any slides or speaking notes for 
this workshop beforehand with the group to avoid duplication and ensure all 
important issues are addressed. I will work with Glen to see if we can identify 
a 15-30 minutes slot on Sunday 1 March (possibly during one of the break) to 
sit down and quickly run through the programme.

Thanks,

Marika


 1.  Is the additional research supposed to be done before the WG finishes its 
work? This will be for the WG to determine as it depends of the scope and size 
of the research that needs to be undertaken.
 2.  Is the WG supposed to finish its work in 90 days after Mexico City or 
simply report on progress then? If the WG is not finished by then, it is the 
expectation that the WG would present its progress together with the expected 
end date of its work.

3. Is the WG supposed to attempt to make a recommendation to the Council on 
whether to initiate a PDP or not? More specifically, the WG is expected to make 
a recommendation about which registration abuse policy issues, if any, are 
appropriate for a PDP.
