>>>>> In Brief
>>>>>
>>>>> The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks
>>>>> volunteers to serve on a PDP Working Group to establish a policy framework
>>>>> for a next-generation gTLD Registration Directory Service (RDS) to replace
>>>>> WHOIS (Next-Gen RDS). The GNSO Council approved the WG's charter
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201511> on 19 November
>>>>> 2015, tasking this PDP to address concerns with WHOIS by creating a new
>>>>> policy framework capable of balancing diverse interests to meet today's
>>>>> needs for gTLD registration data.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> *What This Team Will Do*
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> The PDP WG will use a 3-phase process defined in the approved charter
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/whois-ng-gtld-rds-charter-07oct15-en.pdf>to
>>>>> (1) establish gTLD registration data requirements to determine if and why a
>>>>> next-generation RDS is needed, (2) design policies that detail functions
>>>>> that must be provided by a next-generation RDS to support those
>>>>> requirements, and (3) provide guidance for how a next-generation RDS should
>>>>> implement those policies, coexisting with and eventually replacing WHOIS.
>>>>>
>>>>> This PDP WG will provide the GNSO Council with policy recommendations
>>>>> regarding the issues identified in the Final Issue Report
>>>>> <https://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/final-issue-report-next-generation-rds-07oct15-en.pdf>
>>>>> [PDF, 1.4 MB] and as defined in the charter approved by the GNSO
>>>>> Council
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/whois-ng-gtld-rds-charter-07oct15-en.pdf>
>>>>> [PDF, 628 KB]. Specifically, this PDP WG is tasked with analyzing the
>>>>> purpose of collecting, maintaining and providing access to gTLD
>>>>> registration data and considering safeguards for protecting that data,
>>>>> determining if and why a next-generation RDS is needed to replace WHOIS,
>>>>> and creating policies and coexistence and implementation guidance to meet
>>>>> those needs.
>>>>>
>>>>> During the first phase of this PDP, the PDP WG will, at a minimum,
>>>>> attempt to reach consensus recommendations regarding the questions detailed
>>>>> in the PDP WG’s charter. The PDP WG’s output will then be submitted to
>>>>> the GNSO Council for approval of its recommendations regarding IF and WHY a
>>>>> next-generation RDS is needed to replace WHOIS before moving to the next
>>>>> phase. If the WG concludes a new policy framework is needed, this output
>>>>> should include requirements to be addressed by that new framework and any
>>>>> next-generation RDS. However, if the WG concludes the existing WHOIS system
>>>>> can adequately address requirements, the WG’s output should confirm this
>>>>> and identify any necessary changes to the WHOIS policy framework.
>>>>>
>>>>> After Phase 1, if the GNSO Council confirms that a new policy
>>>>> framework and next-generation RDS are required, the PDP WG will then
>>>>> proceed to Phases 2 and 3, recommending a new consensus policy framework to
>>>>> satisfy requirements for a next-generation RDS established in Phase 1,
>>>>> along with any necessary coexistence and implementation guidance. Further
>>>>> detail regarding this 3-phase process and questions to be considered can be
>>>>> found in the PDP WG’s charter.
>>>>>
>>>>> *How This Team Will Work*
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> ICANN WGs use transparent, open processes. The meetings of this PDP WG
>>>>> will be recorded, and the recordings will be 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 WG's wiki
>>>>> <https://community.icann.org/display/gTLDRDS/Next-Generation+gTLD+Registration+Directory+Services+to+Replace+Whois>.
>>>>> The PDP WG is expected to follow the GNSO Working Group Guidelines
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf>
>>>>> [PDF, 350 KB] as well as the GNSO PDP Manual.
>>>>>
>>>>> *How to participate *
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> There are two ways to volunteer:
>>>>>
>>>>> Individual Members – anyone interested cann 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 tthat 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 Interest (SOI
>>>>> <https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/New+SOIs>).
>>>>>
>>>>> Mailing list observers – for those who are merely interested in
>>>>> monitoring thhe 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.
>>>>>
>>>>> In addition, there will be opportunities to provide input through
>>>>> public consultations and public comment processes that the PDP WG is
>>>>> expected to organize.
>>>>>
>>>>> *How to Join*
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> If you are interested in joining the WG as an individual participant
>>>>> or mailing list observer, please fill in the sign up form
>>>>> <http://goo.gl/forms/bb65iIznLv> or send the Word document
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/gnso-pdp-next-gen-rds-wg-sign-up-04jan16-en.docx>
>>>>> [DOCX, 72 KB] filled in to the GNSO Secretariat <[log in to unmask]>
>>>>>
>>>>> All members and observers will be listed on the PDP WG's wiki page.
>>>>>
>>>>> *Next steps*
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> 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 WG
>>>>> convenes for the first time. At this juncture, it is anticipated that the
>>>>> PDP WG may convene online in late January 2015. 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.
>>>>>
>>>>> *Further information and preparation*
>>>>>
>>>>> 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:
>>>>>
>>>>> The Final Issue Report
>>>>> <https://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/final-issue-report-next-generation-rds-07oct15-en.pdf>
>>>>>
>>>>> The approved charter
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/whois-ng-gtld-rds-charter-07oct15-en.pdf>
>>>>>
>>>>> Materials available at the PDP WG's wiki
>>>>> <https://community.icann.org/display/gTLDRDS/Next-Generation+gTLD+Registration+Directory+Services+to+Replace+Whois>
>>>>> such as the EWG Final Report and other relevant information.
>>>>> Background
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> Created in the 1980s, WHOIS began as a service to identify and contact
>>>>> entities responsible for the operation of a network resource on the
>>>>> Internet. Over the years, ICANN's requirements for gTLD domain name
>>>>> registration data collection, access and accuracy have undergone some
>>>>> important changes. Yet, after nearly 15 years of task forces, review teams,
>>>>> and studies, comprehensive WHOIS policy reform remains the source of
>>>>> long-running discussion and debate.
>>>>>
>>>>> In 2012, the ICANN Board launched the Expert Working Group on gTLD
>>>>> Registration Directory Services (EWG) to help redefine the purpose of gTLD
>>>>> registration data and consider how to safeguard the data, and to propose a
>>>>> model for gTLD registration directory services (RDS) to address accuracy,
>>>>> privacy, and access issues.
>>>>>
>>>>> Upon publication of the EWG's Final Report in June, 2014, an informal
>>>>> group of GNSO Councilors and ICANN Board Members collaborated to propose a
>>>>> Process Framework for structuring a GNSO PDP to successfully address these
>>>>> challenging issues. This Process Framework was adopted by the Board in
>>>>> 2015, along with a reaffirmation of its 2012 request for a PDP to be
>>>>> convened to define the purpose of collecting, maintaining and providing
>>>>> access to gTLD registration data. The Board also asked that the PDP
>>>>> consider safeguards for protecting data, using the recommendations in the
>>>>> EWG's Final Report as an input to, and, if appropriate, as the foundation
>>>>> for a new gTLD policy.
>>>>>
>>>>> In preparation for this PDP, a new Preliminary Issue Report
>>>>> <http://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/rds-prelim-issue-13jul15-en.pdf>
>>>>> [PDF, 1.4 MB] was published for public comment
>>>>> <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/rds-prelim-issue-2015-07-13-en>
>>>>> on 13 July 2015. A Final Issue Report
>>>>> <https://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/final-issue-report-next-generation-rds-07oct15-en.pdf>
>>>>> [PDF, 1.2 MB] was subsequently published on 7 October 2015, including links
>>>>> to all public comments received, along with a draft charter for the PDP WG.
>>>>> This draft charter was approved by the GNSO Council on 19 November
>>>>> 2015
>>>>> <https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocouncilmeetings/Motions+19+November+2015>,
>>>>> enabling the formation of a GNSO working group of community volunteers to
>>>>> progress this PDP.
>>>>>
>>>>> More information can be found on the GNSO PDP on Next-Generation gTLD
>>>>> Registration Directory Service (RDS) page
>>>>> <http://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/active/rds> and the WG's
>>>>> wiki
>>>>> <https://community.icann.org/display/gTLDRDS/Next-Generation+gTLD+Registration+Directory+Services+to+Replace+Whois>,
>>>>> including the WG's charter, inputs already provided by all SG/Cs during the
>>>>> public comment period, and an extensive library of foundational materials
>>>>> to inform the WG's deliberations. In addition, the WG will reach out to all
>>>>> SG/Cs for feedback on any items that they believe should be considered that
>>>>> may not have been specifically called out in the approved charter.
>>>>>
>>>>> As this will be a complex multi-phase PDP, all those interested in
>>>>> helping to shape the policy framework for a next-generation gTLD RDS are
>>>>> encouraged to volunteer for this WG. Only with the help of the entire
>>>>> community can this WG achieve its goal of formally defining an appropriate
>>>>> purpose of gTLD registration data and establishing a new policy framework
>>>>> to enable permissible access to that data with improved privacy and
>>>>> accuracy.
