Members of the Internet Improvement Board; Minister of Transport, Maritime and Communications
of Turkey; and ICANN's David Olive come together at a meeting in Ankara, Turkey.

David Olive Meets with the Minister of Transport, Maritime and Communications of
 Turkey
David Olive, Senior VP of Policy Development Support and General Manager of ICANN's
regional hub in Istanbul, joined the Internet Improvement Board in a visit with 
Ahmet Arslan, the Minister of Transport, Maritime and Communications of Turkey.
Tayfun Acarer, President of the Internet Improvement Board, spoke about ICANN: "Four
years ago, when ICANN decided to launch new hubs around the world, there was a debate
among countries about where to host the ICANN hub to be launched in our region. 
We worked hard to have this new hub in Istanbul. It is invaluable to our reputation
and contributes to progress in information and communications technologies."
David Olive added to Tayfun Acarer's remarks: "Four years ago with the help of then-minister
Yildirim and Mr. Acarer, we were happy to launch the ICANN regional hub in Istanbul,
and I was employee number one. Today 20 staff members are working out of the Istanbul
hub and I am glad to tell you, 17 are from the talented young Turkish workforce.
 I believe Turkey DNS Forums, which bring Turkish stakeholders together, and the
 .istanbul and .ist top-level domain agreements with the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality,
have been good examples of the positive outcomes of our presence here."

Initial Report on the IGO-INGO Access to Curative Rights Protection Mechanisms Published
for Public Comment
In the domain name space, international governmental organizations (IGOs) and international
non-governmental organizations (INGOs) may encounter difficulties to protect their
names and acronyms against abuse. While the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution
Policy (UDRP) and the Uniform Rapid Suspension procedure (URS) are mechanisms to
 protect the marks of rights holders, not all IGOs and INGOs can use them due to
 the lack of trademarks or issues of jurisdictional immunity. Since June 2014, a
 policy development process working group in the Generic Names Supporting Organization
(GNSO) has been tasked with developing policy recommendations that enable IGOs and
INGOs to effectively access curative rights protection mechanisms. The working group
has published an initial report with a set of preliminary recommendations and conclusions.

GAC Prepares for ICANN58
The leadership of the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) has been working to 
create an agenda in line with the topics raised by GAC members and with meeting 
requests from the ICANN community.In Copenhagen, the GAC plans to meet with the 
Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO), the At-Large Advisory Council (ALAC)
and the ICANN Board. Additionally, the GAC will also dedicate considerable time 
to discussing its implementation of the new ICANN Bylaws and to ongoing discussions
on new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) and intergovernmental organization protections.
GAC internal matters will be tackled throughout the week as well. All GAC working
groups will meet and update the GAC on their work in plenary sessions. Lastly, the
GAC will lead two cross-community discussions: a session on domain name system (DNS)
abuse mitigation, proposed by the GAC Public Safety Working Group, and a session
 on how to better engage in ICANN, proposed by the GAC Underserved Regions Working
Group.
Within the next month, you will find the final GAC schedule on the ICANN58 website

the GNSO nominated Howard Eland, Scott McCormick, Rao Naveed bin Rais and Norm Ritchie

revocation and retirement of country code top-level domains (ccTLDs). The focus 
will be on delineating and scoping the issues that need to be addressed through 
PDPs and on working methods. The drafting team's results will be included in an 
issue report. The report will be presented to the broader community at ICANN58, 
and then to the ccNSO Council for decision-making. The first meeting of the drafting
team took place on 11 January 2017.

Results of IANA Functions Customer Survey Now Available
In January 2017, ICANN published the results of an annual survey that measures the
perception of satisfaction among IANA functions customers regarding the services
 they receive. In the survey, which accounts for transactions completed between 
September 2015 and August 2016, 94 percent of respondents reported being "satisfied"
or "very satisfied." Notably, 99 percent of respondents reported being satisfied
 with the accuracy of their transactions. Customers also identified accuracy as 
the most important measure of performance for the fourth consecutive year. View
