Thank you very much for this information Rinalia.

I believe it would be of great benefit for Jamie to have a look and understand the work Garth has been doing on  this matter.

Maybe we should try to find a time to speak to Jamie on this?


Best regards,


León

I was specifically asking for more than general statements such as “ICANN isn’t transparent” or “ICANN is bad at compliance”. The RySG-IPC Joint submission, which I understand was underway before these recent discussions, includes recommendations that are clear and specific and can be assessed for feasibility, cost and effort. And that’s just what we in Contractual Compliance will do.

In the “Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review Team Draft Report of Recommendations for New gTLDs <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/cct-rt-draft-report-2017-03-07-en>,” the Review Team seeks input on recommendations related to Contractual Compliance. In particular, Recommendation 23 urges ICANN to “Include more detailed information on the subject matter of complaints in ICANN publicly available compliance reports.”  The draft recommendations are now out for public comment. This is an excellent opportunity for community members to provide input just as RySG and IPC representatives have done. (Full disclosure – I am a member of the CCT-RT).

Alternatively, please submit them by email to me at jamie.hedlund at icann.org <mailto:jamie.hedlund at icann.org>. Once the public comment period on the CCT-RT’s closes, we will review all of the input we receive and provide a report on changes that we will undertake as well as a rationale for not undertaking others. Please send us your good ideas!
