Thank you Liz,
To re-cap, I posted a revised timeline and Marilyn did as well. In order
to assist with the version control issue, I have attached both of those
documents to this e-mail. I hope that will be helpful. I am available
most of this week at my office number, so please do give me a call and
whenever you can and we can work on it.
I am available Monday the 28th for a brief teleconference.
In addition to the votes on the minutes and the time line/work plan,
there is also the outstanding issue of my memo to Bruce. I sent that
e-mail last week and requested a mover and seconder for it. I will
excerpt that part from the e-mail and re-send it today. I would
appreciate it if you would kindly manage the voting process. Thank you
Best Regards,
Maureen

To deal with version control which is always problematic, I will sift
through all the postings that addressed work schedule issues, speak with
Maureen as soon as I can and then send around a clean version.

Liz, I do not want to agree to a work plan that I have so many concerns
about. I saw that philip sheppard also asked abt the practicality of
some of the suppositions.
Is there a redrafted version incorporating the changes, in square
brackets, so that thr TF and chair can lok at what a modified wk plan
would look like?
It makes no sense to force a motion when there is not agreement. I
suggest staff provide a revisd version, especialy noting the comments
received, perhaps as options, and then Have a sht call chaired by
Maureen. If she can dial in next week, we could perhaps have the call on
Monday late in the pm fot those members of the tf who are overlapping,
early mid day for North America.

Colleagues
Further to the 10 August 2006 conference call and subsequent postings to
the list, I wanted to confirm that I had received one further suggestion
of expert written materials and only one set of comments on the
Preliminary Taskforce Report.
I have looked at all the postings which relate to a revised work plan
and would appreciate very much a final version of that that is agreed by
the group.
I had suggested that it would be helpful for one of the TF members to
propose a motion on the final version and get that seconded, via email,
so that I am clear about the expectations of the group.
In addition, we also need two motions, again to be approved by email,
that confirms the minutes of the two previous meetings.
I am conscious that many members of the TF are busily preparing for the
Amsterdam meetings but I am reluctant to let the work of the group slip
through this week.
Kind regards.
Liz

similarly. Right now, the report summarizes two or three of the statements, but
merely acknowledges the others. The report h as to be more than a listing of
submissions. Added value is needed in the body of the report to add in
substance. I have been tied up all day on business activities and

options may exist, so I noted that the location is TBD. AT&T will
provide the space without charge, and they have installed an overhead audio
bridge that supports desk mikes, similar to what we have used recently. That
means most of the structural planning support is taken care of. I believe we

Committee on Strategy recently held a 5+ hour outreach session and had some
excellent inputs from parties who would not have spent time drafting written
submissions, but from whom we learned a good deal. The earlier WHOIS TF
used sub groups to do pieces of work and then share with the rest of the fuller

I?ve seen some questions to date and realize that the TF can work as a sub
committee of interested parties to take the final set of submitted questions
from all TF members and help to organize them into logical categories, with
staff supporting this effort. It is possible that some TF members can use
an additional day or two for submitting questions. Given how the work is
progressing, using this approach will supplement the limited staffing resources
but also not require all TF members to participate. Since the call would be to
do really an administrative organizing task, I would suggest that it doesn?t
need a chair, but can be a voluntary working group. ] the output of questions
will be posted to the fuller TF for final edits and return with 72 hours.

Contract Issues</SPAN></FONT></B><FONT color=black><SPAN style="COLOR: black">:
Another example of ICANN?s [bottom-up policy making] processes not
working
is its disregard to date of the GNSO policy making process regarding contract
issues. The GNSO has a Task Force on contract issues for registry
renewals. As noted, ICANN recently has posted for public information
proposed renewal agreements for the biz, org and .info domain registries, all
of
which contain automatic renewal provisions similar to those in the .com
agreement. Thus, instead of waiting for the outcome of the GNSO policy
recommendations, ICANN staff has moved forward to try to reach agreement on the
same issues being considered by the GNSO, thereby effectively circumventing
that
process. This raises particular concern with regard to the .org Registry
Agreement, which does not expire until 2009.</SPAN></FONT><FONT

</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></SPAN></FONT><![endif]>The biz and .info agreements do
not
expire until 2007 and .org expires in 2009. There is no need to rush into
signing these agreements when important policy issues are being considered by
ICANN?s policy arm. This is especially true because according to the
terms
of the proposed registry agreements, they cannot be altered by subsequent
consensus policies in most, if not all, of the issues being considered by the
Task Force. So you are rushing to enter into essentially permanent
contracts that contain policy issues being considered by the Task Force that
can?t be changed by Consensus Policy. A highly questionable endeavor if
you believe in ICANN?s core values.<o:p></o:p></P>

</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></SPAN></FONT><![endif]>There are, indeed, policy issues
being considered by the Task Force. Whether ICANN should enter into
registry agreements with automatic renewal provisions, for example, is a policy
decision. Whether a dominant registry operator should pay ICANN more,
less, or the same in a per-name fee than a non-dominant registry operator is a
policy decision. Whether price caps are appropriate for registries
without
market power is a policy decision. Cognizant of the fact that ICANN?s
policy arm is specifically looking at policy issues, why would you recommend
that ICANN enter into agreements with provisions that can?t be changed via
Consensus Policy without waiting to see the results of the process? It?s
baffling. <o:p></o:p></P>

and effort into assisting the PDP process by providing legal advice to the Task
Force to facilitate the process so it is completed in a timely manner, rather
than working on circumventing the process by pushing the premature execution of
permanent contracts and impeding the progress of the Task Force. How
about
recommending some independent experts or materials to provide advice on
antitrust and other issues? How about providing information to Task Force
members in a timely manner when requested? Cooperating with the Task
Force
to help reach consensus would make ICANN a better, stronger, and more capable
organization. Is that such a pipe dream?<o:p></o:p></P>

from a process that started in mid-2005 following the introduction of the
revised registry agreement form in the sTLD discussions and following the
introduction of the revised 2005 version of the .NET Agreement. These
discussions started well in advance of the idea for the contractual conditions
pdp launched during the revised .COM agreement public comment

negotiating and finalizing the sTLD agreements during this time, as
well.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

the TF and the GNSO have been aware of the negotiations relating to these
agreements for quite some time. The expriation of these gTLD

have been discussed in various forums and the terms of all gTLD agreements

discussion dating back to the beginning of ICANN and that there is a disparity

contractual agreements. It is also my understanding that the issues being
discussed in the current pdp are unlikely to be resolved in a time frame that
would permit such policies or advice as might arise from this pdp to impact a
negotiation on these particular agreements. In following the work of the
task force it appears that it will be difficult to reach a consensus, and if
such consensus were to emerge, the policy or advice must then be reviewed
and approved by the board, and then implemented by
staff. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

not
seek to place limitations on the negotiations of specific agreements.
Also, I would also caution, once again, against the use of a pdp process to
impact specific agreements. The appropriate process to raise concerns
about the posted agreements is the current public comment process for those
agreements.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

responsible for developing policy for GTLDS, then we really have to have an
understanding that there will be consultation between the GNSO Council and the

disappointed, and concerned, to see that we seem to have an apparent
disconnect between activities related to drafting and proposing new versions of
existing registry agreements as posted by the ICANN General Council and the
work
of the TF PDP 06. Since there is a policy development process underway,
approved
by consensus vote of the GNSO Council, directly relevant to policies in
existing
contracts with registries, I believe that registry agreements should be
redrafted only after the conclusion of the PDP and following its
recommendations. I am concerned to see a posting of three registry
agreements, one of which does not lapse until 2009, without any acknowledgement
of the pending work of the GNSO Council.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>

on the GNSO Council call last week, and will post further to Council regarding
Council?s position on its role in developing and determining GNSO policy which
is then recommended to the Board. Ignoring Council?s role essentially means
that
our work and indeed our role is irrelevant to ICANN. I find it hard to believe,
as I review the strong endorsement given by ICANN?s senior management to the
importance of bottom up policy development, that that would be intentional
outcome of any activities presently underway. However, it can be an
unintentional, and harmful outcome.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>

Overall, we need to get this TF on a regular working schedule. If we look at
how
frequently we have met, we see broad gaps. That may signify that we need
additional resources, and so tomorrow, I suggest that we give consideration to
recommending retention of not only independent experts, but also possibly
additional consulting resources to augment existing staff resources. That may
be
the most practical approach to ensuring that this important policy area is
completed by the end of ?06, as originally conceptualized. We can then expect
ICANN to advise us quickly of resource availability to achieve the needed
support to the TF.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Liz, thank you for
this
draft work plan. As I noted in my email earlier today,
</SPAN></FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial
color=navy><SPAN style="COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I have reviewed my
notes from the Aug 10 task force teleconference and the MP3 recording, and I
have added some elements to the work plan and altered the timeline to reflect
the TF’s discussion. I have also considered the points that have been
raised by
some of the task force members in emails over the past few days.
<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal

class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I do understand that
the dates you have proposed reflect the PDP guidelines as they stand, and the
importance of working within the PDP guidelines, according to the bylaws.
However, it is my view that the preliminary Report does not contain the
information we need to move forward within the timeframes set out in the
guidelines and bylaws. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal
style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"><SPAN
class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">My understanding, and
an understanding that was also voiced on the call by other TF members, is that
the PDP guidelines call for only two reports, a Preliminary Report and a Final
Report, and in between those two reports, the TF meets and votes on the
Preliminary Report. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal
style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"><SPAN
class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">As I read the
guidelines, there is an anticipation and understanding that the Preliminary
Report will contain all of the input and materials needed to enable it to also
contain analysis and conclusions. What we have in this particular
preliminary Report for TF Feb 06 reads much more like initial thinking.
Analysis
and conclusions are absent.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal
style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"><SPAN
class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I realize that Liz has
repeatedly asked the TF for additional input, and in particular for specific
input from the Constituencies. As well, some TF members have asked that
resources be allocated in order that we may solicit expert advice on some of
the
questions raised in the Terms of Reference.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal

class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Consideration of the
guidelines and bylaws is what is driving the work schedule that has been
proposed. I continue, nonetheless, to believe that it is
counter-productive to place process before content and to adhere to a process
if
the content is missing. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal
style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"><SPAN
class=apple-style-span><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=3><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">While Staff has worked
diligently to provide us with a Preliminary Report, the reality is that it does
not give us enough content to move ahead to the Final Report, so we have asked
for additional iterations of it. This in itself compromises the
guidelines, which call for only 2 reports, Preliminary and final, as I noted
above.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
