<H1><B>Call for Volunteers: GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP) Working
Group on New gTLD Subsequent Procedures</B></H1><BR><BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>In Brief</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks
volunteers to serve on a PDP Working Group (WG) to develop recommendations
for New generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) Subsequent Procedures. The GNSO
Council approved the <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/igo-ingo-crp-access-charter-24jun14-en.pdf">WG's
charter</A> [PDF, 603 KB] on 21 January 2016, tasking this PDP to
determine whether changes or adjustments to the existing policy
recommendations on the Introduction of New Generic Top-Level Domains are
needed.<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>What This Team Will Do</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>The New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP Working Group (WG) is tasked
with calling upon the community's collective experiences from the 2012 New
gTLD Program round to determine what, if any, changes may need to be made
to the existing <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/new-gtlds/pdp-dec05-fr-parta-08aug07.htm">Introduction
of New Generic Top-Level Domains</A></I> policy recommendations from 8
August 2007. As the original policy recommendations as adopted by the GNSO
Council and ICANN Board have "been designed to produce a systemized and
ongoing mechanisms for applicants to propose new top-level domains", those
policy recommendations remain in place for subsequent rounds of the New
gTLD Program unless the GNSO Council would decide to modify those policy
recommendations via this PDP. The work of this PDP WG follows the efforts
of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Discussion Group (DG), which
identified a set of issues/subjects for a future PDP WG to consider in
their deliberations and recommend whether to:
<DD>Clarify, amend or override existing policy principles,
recommendations, and implementation guidance;
<DD>Develop new policy recommendations;
<DD>Supplement or develop new implementation guidance. <BR>
<DD>As part of the PDP WG deliberations, the PDP WG should consider at a
minimum, the subjects detailed in the Final Issue Report. These subjects
have been organized in groupings suggested by the DG that may facilitate
deliberations on related subjects. However, additional work methods, such
as those described in the Final Issue Report, or other methods identified
by the PDP WG may be more appropriate to undertake the work.<BR><BR>
<DD>In addition to the work of the PDPWG, a number of new gTLD review
efforts are underway which may have an impact on the work of this PDP WG.
Therefore, this PDP WG should not be limited to the issues identified by
the DG and should take into account the findings from the parallel efforts
external to the PDP WG.<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>How This Team Will Work</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>ICANN WGs use transparent, open processes. The meetings of this PDP WG
will be recorded, and the recordings will be made available to the public.
The mailing list for the PDP WG will be archived publicly. The group will
collaborate using a public workspace for draft materials and all final
work products and milestones will be documented on the <A
href="https://community.icann.org/display/NGSPP/New+gTLD+Subsequent+Procedures+PDP+Home">WG's
wiki</A>. The PDP WG is expected to follow the <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf">GNSO
Working Group Guidelines</A> [PDF, 349 KB] as well as the <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-24jun15-en.pdf">GNSOPDP
Manual</A> [PDF, 260 KB].<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>How to Participate</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>There are two ways to volunteer:
<DD>Individual Members</B> – anyone intterested can volunteer to join the
PDP WG as a WG member, regardless of whether they are members of the ICANN
community. Members are expected to actively contribute to mailing list
conversations as well as meetings – it is anticipated that the PDP WG will
at a minimum meet on a weekly basis via teleconference. Members are
expected to provide essential input to the process. Members will be
required to provide a Statement of Interests (<A
href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/New+SOIs">SOI</A>).
<DD>Mailing list observers</B> – for those who arre merely interested in
monitoring the WG's conversations, there is the possibility to sign up as
a mailing list "observer" which offers read-only access to the mailing
list. Mailing list observers will not be permitted to post, will not
receive invitations to the various meetings or calls of the WG and will
not have to complete a Statement of Interest. At any point in time, a
mailing list observer can join the WG as a member simply by informing the
GNSO Secretariat. <BR>
<DD>In addition, there will be opportunities to provide input through
public consultations and public comment processes that the PDP WG is
expected to organize.<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>How to Join</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>If you are interested in joining the WG as an individual participant
or mailing list observer, please fill in the <A
href="http://goo.gl/forms/FRNZ4pSQl9">sign up form</A> or send the <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/new-gtlds/subsequent-procedures-pdp-27jan16-en.pdf">PDF
document</A> [PDF, 76 KB] filled in to the <A
href="mailto:gnso-secs@icann.org">GNSO Secretariat</A>.<BR><BR>
<DD>All members and observers will be listed on the PDP WG's wiki
page.<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>Next Steps</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>In its motion, the GNSO Council directed that this call for volunteers
be circulated as widely as possible in order to ensure broad
representation and participation in the WG. This call will remain open
until the PDP WG convenes for the first time. At this juncture, it is
anticipated that the PDP WG may convene online in late February 2016.
Following that, regular online meetings will be scheduled in accordance
with the PDP WG's work plan, which it is expected to develop as one of its
first tasks.<BR><BR>
<DD>
<H3><B>Further Information and Preparation</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>For those interested in volunteering for this effort, you are strongly
encouraged to review the following materials prior to the first meeting of
the PDP WG.

<DD>
<H3><B>Background</B></H3><BR><BR>
<DD>In 2005, the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) began a
Policy Development Process (PDP) to consider the introduction of new
gTLDs. The two-year PDP process resulted in a set of 19 GNSO policy
recommendations for implementing new gTLDs. In order to implement the
policy recommendations of the GNSO, a number of draft Applicant Guidebooks
(AGBs) were developed by ICANN staff in consultation with the community.In
June 2011, ICANN's Board of Directors approved the final AGB and
authorized the launch of the New gTLD Program.<BR><BR>
<DD>The New gTLD Program application window opened on 12 January 2012 and
a total of 1930 complete applications were received. The first set of
Initial Evaluation results were released on 22 March 2013, followed by the
first set of new gTLD delegations on 21 October 2013.<BR><BR>
<DD>All applications have now completed the evaluation process and as of
mid January 2016, there are nearly 900 gTLDs delegated and approximately
450 applications still proceeding through the remaining steps of the
program. Although the 2012 round is ongoing, efforts to examine the round
have already begun, which included the creation of the <A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/inactive/2015/non-pdp-new-gtld">GNSO
New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Discussion Group (DG)</A>. The DG was
created by the GNSO Council to discuss the experiences gained from the
2012 round of the New gTLD Program and to identify subjects that might
lead to changes or adjustments for subsequent application procedures. The
DG prepared its final deliverables, which included a set of subjects that
it anticipated would be analyzed in detail in the context of an Issue
Report. On 24 June 2015 the GNSO Council passed a resolution requesting
the drafting of a Preliminary Issue Report on New gTLD Subsequent
Procedures.<BR><BR>
<DD>In accordance with the PDP Rules, the Preliminary Issue Report was
published for public comment on 31 August 2015. Following review of the
public comments received, the Staff Manager updated the Issue Report
accordingly and submitted the Final Issue Report to the GNSO Council for
its consideration. The GNSO Council officially initiated the PDP on New
gTLD Subsequent Procedures on 17 December 2015, followed by adoption of
the PDP WG's charter on 21 January 2016.<BR><BR>
