RE: [jig] Draft of motion

["Edmon Chung" <edmon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Avri for the draft.

Hi Everyone,

hearing no further concerns about the motion, will pass it on to the respective 
councils to extend the mandate of this group.


==============================

Whereas

The Joint ccNSO/GNSO IDN Working Group (JIG) was created by mutual charters of 
the ccNSO (http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/jiwg-charter.pdf) and the GNSO 
(http://gnso.icann.org/resolutions/#200907); and 

Both the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Implementation Plan and the new gTLD process have 
been approved by the Board of Directors, bringing into effect the JIG charter 
condition: Upon adoption of either the IDN ccTLD Fast Track Implementation Plan 
or the new gTLD process by the ICANN Board of Directors, the WG will be closed, 
unless both the ccNSO and GNSO Council extend the duration of the JIG WG.; and

The JIG identified 3 issues of common interest: 1. Single Character IDN TLDs; 
2. IDN Variant TLDs; and, 3. Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs;  and 

The JIG has delivered a first report  on Item 1  “Implementation of Single 
Character IDN TLD” to the ccNSO council and the GNSO council on date1; and

The GNSO Council and the ccNSO Council approved the report on April 7, 2011 and 
May 10, 2011 respectively; and 

The final report  on the first item of interest was delivered to the ICANN 
Board on May 11, 2011; and

Two issues of common interest remain from the JIG charter; and

The JIG WG has discussed and proposed the following target timeline for 
completion of the remaining items of common interest:
        • 2011 Jul/Aug: Stocktaking & Development Initial Report for #3 (Public 
comments Sep 2011)
        • 2011 Sep/Oct: Completion of Initial Report for #2 (Public comments 
Nov 2011)
        • 2011 Nov/Dec: Completion of Draft Final Report for #2 (Public 
comments Feb/Mar 2012)
        • 2012 Jan/Feb: Completion of Draft Final Report for #3 (Public 
comments Feb/Mar 2012)
        • 2012 Mar: Finalization of Final Report for #2
        • 2012 Apr: Finalization of Final Report for #3
        • 2012 May-Oct: Implementation Follow up

Resolved

The JIG Working Group is extended through 2012 to complete work items Two (2.  
IDN Variant TLDs) and Three (3. Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs ) from the 
original charter.


==============================

I have updated the dates and also made a couple of minor edits.  Also it seems 
the final paragraph was more of an explanation, so would propose to have the 
above motion for the councils' consideration.

Am cc-ing Ching and Stéphane so one of them can consider to make the motion for 
the GNSO Council.  For the the ccNSO council, we will have Jian work with that.

Edmon

Hi,

At the last meeting Edmon asked me to draft a motion that could be passed to 
the GNOS council.  That initial draft can be found at:

The text at this point reads (note some dates need to be filed in yet):

Resolved

The JIG Working Group is extended through 2012 to complete work items Two (2.  
IDN Variant TLDs) and Three (3. Universal Acceptance of IDN TLDs ) from the 
original charter.

In all other respects, the conditions of the original charter will remain in 
effect for the Working Group until it completes its work.
