From: Byron Holland, CSC Chair

FOR: All Community Leaders

INFORMATION SHARING
As chair of the Customer Standing Committee (CSC), I am providing you with
our June 2019 monthly findings
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001f6esFs8oxOlBvT0z-20Q1AcjTiCJd5Y_uSEgpLD9Ax7P70Zv4wbfp6I7waSOXycMUc-Sha0Xtklw3rNC0_bFJSVHSQvPoK75v1SZENIbh2X0-aHKpBX6GraH62sspg5FXU4zvJrOxfK4MXX_12CCsrNmL-lOSvxbumzMFX7G0Szn3U-N15RQAosPxbQRZ28Gctq40nx6nBk9C7r9rocvGufs0XscOueLggovePQ_zN58CxJG3UuCpA==&c=o0bivGboOSDzHL0_nDYhClbsAAzpBOZENtdoq4hqQYAYFCzxzSKgew==&ch=_QUm66X-EySQA42a4mEe-ab5NgjskSS-YqZiby4qVT44WV_xRSEMVg==>
on the performance of Public Technical Identifiers (PTI). I am pleased to
inform you the CSC has concluded that PTI’s overall performance over June
2019 was “Excellent” - PTI met the service level agreement at 100% for the

performance, can be found here

REMINDER: Submission Deadline for NCAP Study 1 RFP Extended
Executive: David Conrad, Chief Technology Officer (CTO)

FOR: All Community Leaders

INFORMATION SHARING
On 9 July 2019, the ICANN org opened an RFP to select a contractor to
research and write Study 1 of the Name Collision Analysis Project (NCAP), a
project overseen by SSAC at the request of the ICANN Board. Very few
organizations indicated their intention to bid on this work, so the ICANN
org decided to extend the deadline for proposal submission to Friday, 23
August. More information
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001f6esFs8oxOlBvT0z-20Q1AcjTiCJd5Y_uSEgpLD9Ax7P70Zv4wbfpzkfNU2sy8D9bWMlJDez9egNtQyH2E9Ic8plAFszDc8wciJhJLw4oQzsHF27ERDE-_3HJFlHgJV2I66D5rWDKGXn32pDt_zMJCSi76YvVHuGrm5th2L3M1BfJFeDLrJGWk7kAqM57MK3&c=o0bivGboOSDzHL0_nDYhClbsAAzpBOZENtdoq4hqQYAYFCzxzSKgew==&ch=_QUm66X-EySQA42a4mEe-ab5NgjskSS-YqZiby4qVT44WV_xRSEMVg==>.
All community leaders are encouraged to share this information with any
organizations they believe might be interested and capable of performing
the work.

The review will start with gathering community input via a survey about
several aspects of the NextGen at ICANN Program, including its purpose, goals,
processes, and synergies with the ICANN academic community.

The survey
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001f6esFs8oxOlBvT0z-20Q1AcjTiCJd5Y_uSEgpLD9Ax7P70Zv4wbfp6FwG9LDpwMXoEU-oGkvgQce64C7YbVQdo7qQg38r1wItfsgSxD8ELGuJSDYHwT84JwX2Lh7A_TiYFiMxRb64IByIOMP5CcmJHOS894MTPRtypl3mSf1_HQq8pqe3xi5zYXubXq6jCxarpSMNALtjAFcp2NUZmUTAakXkRNfR5uEp-SuRv1-xTVKrGO1b06-YEHbBgrjngIU&c=o0bivGboOSDzHL0_nDYhClbsAAzpBOZENtdoq4hqQYAYFCzxzSKgew==&ch=_QUm66X-EySQA42a4mEe-ab5NgjskSS-YqZiby4qVT44WV_xRSEMVg==>

intended for all ICANN community groups; individuals are encouraged to work

REMINDER: Planning Assumptions for Subsequent Procedures for New gTLDs
Executive: Cyrus Namazi, Senior Vice President, Global Domains Division

FOR: All Community Leaders

INFORMATION SHARING
In December 2015, the GNSO initiated a Policy Development Process (PDP) to
determine if changes to existing policy recommendations are needed before
the next round of gTLDs. The PDP Working Group expects to publish its final
report with its recommendations by December 2019. These recommendations may
lead to procedural changes for subsequent rounds of gTLD applications,
which ICANN org must implement and manage. In the course of our preparatory
work toward the planning and implementation of the new policy, ICANN org
has compiled a number of fundamental operationally focused assumptions to
help with the preliminary planning and operational readiness of the
organization. These are working assumptions informed by the current work of
the Subsequent Procedures PDP Working Group. Depending on outcome of the
PDP Working Group and community input, the assumptions may be updated.
These assumptions have been shared with the ICANN Board, as well as the PDP
Working Group and other parts of the community. ICANN org has held
discussions and/or received input from the Subsequent Procedures PDP
Working Group, GAC, ALAC, and RSSAC. ICANN org plans to summarize the
community input received on the operational planning assumptions and share
with the ICANN Board at its September workshop. Any community input
received by Friday, 30 August will be included in the summary.

LOOKING AHEAD: Publication Support Deadlines
Executive: David Olive, Senior Vice President, Policy Development Support

FOR: All Community Leaders

INFORMATION SHARING

Design Deadline
If you require design assistance for an ICANN66 publication, all text,
images, layout, and publication
type/size requirements (i.e. newsletter, 1-pager, tri-fold, etc.) are
due Friday,
23 August. Due to budget
constraints, please keep in mind that all materials, new or updated, need
to be evergreen.

Translation Deadline
If your ICANN66 publication requires translation, please provide the final
material(s) by Friday, 6 September. This ensures that there is enough time
to translate the publication by the print deadline. If your materials
require design assistance (outlined above), please note that the final
materials will have to be complete, including the edit/approval process, by
this deadline in order to be translated.

Print-Only Deadline
If you only need your ICANN66 publication printed (meaning your publication
is ready to send directly to the printer and needs no translation or
design/layout modifications), please provide the file along with the
quantity you want printed and dimensions of the publication by Friday, 20
September.

Please work directly with your Policy support staff to submit these
requests to chantelle.doerksen at icann.org and liana.teo at icann.org.
