Reminder: I hope you all will join in next Tuesday's NCSG Open Policy
Meeting, which is an open discussion between the NCSG Policy
Committee, including the NCSG GNSO Councilors and the entire NCSG
membership.
The meeting is on 12 March, which is 2 days before the next GNSO
Council meeting to help prepare for NCSG's participation in that
meeting. We will also discuss preparations for the Beijing ICANN
meeting next month and review open comment periods and working groups.
Dial-in and remote participation details are below. Also below is a
draft discussion agenda. If anyone needs a dial-out, please let me
know at least 24-hours before the meeting to ensure we have enough
time to make the dial-out happen.
Please join in the discussion. Thank you!
Best,
Robin

B. Discussion Issues (no vote)
1. Policy vs. Implementation
Recent issues highlight an ongoing broader issue regarding the boundary
between policy development and implementation work as well as the
effective
integration of policy development and integration work from the outset.
In addition, the Council is increasingly asked to consider issues for
policy
guidance and may well need to look at the evolution of its own work and
processes to accommodate this type of request.
Recent discussions on the Council mailing list indicate that there is an
interest to undertake further work on this issue. At the same time,
ICANN
Staff has published a paper
<http://gnso.icann.org/en/correspondence/policy-implementation-
framework-08j
an13-en.pdf> that is intended to facilitate further community
discussions
on this topic.
Further community discussion will take place in Beijing and the
inclusion of
this agenda item here serves to keep the issue on the agenda of the
Council
in the interim.

2, Whois Privacy and Proxy Relay and Reveal Study
At the ICANN Meeting in Toronto, Lyman Chapin presented the results
of the
survey
<http://toronto45.icann.org/meetings/toronto2012/presentation-whois-
survey-1
7oct12-en.pdf> that evaluated the feasibility of conducting a future
in-depth study into communication Relay and identity Reveal requests
sent
for gTLD domain names registered using Proxy and Privacy services.
The Council discussed this at its 14 February 2013 meeting but did
not reach
a firm conclusion. Some expressed concern about going ahead with the
study
now, when a lot of other Whois activities are going on, while others
appeared to support moving forward as the study could result in data
that
would help inform ongoing Whois activities.
One possible way forward is that staff is asked to go ahead with the
RFP
for this work and then report back to the Council before going ahead
with
the study? In this way, some of the preparatory work could be done,
which
would allow us to move forward quickly if/when the Council decides to
move
ahead.
3. GNSO Council in Beijing Meeting Planning
The GNSO Council has the opportunity to shape the topics and
substance of the Council's proposed meetings with other groups in
Beijing

discussion agendas in Beijng?
