we have meeting in Tuesday 23rd June with the ICANN board and as topics list :
- Does the board have any plans for new/revised/additional naming policy pr programs outside of the new gTLD program?
- Does the board feel that the IANA functions should remain within ICANN in perpetuity, if so should the community not have the right to periodically review the performance of the IANA and if required seek bids rom alternate providers?
- When performing its work, what situations does the board feel it it exercising its fiduciary responsibility, and does the board take into account the community input when making such decisions., has the board received formal guidance on the boundaries if their fiduciary responsibility with regards to the IANA transition?
- On the topic of ‘Public Interest Commitments’ how does the board feel that PICs interact with existing bottom up policy making at ICANN. Does the board feel that there may be a conflict between PICS and multistakeholder policy development. How does the board plan to enforce PICs, specifically in the case where there may not be community agreement over the actions contained in the PIC?When will the community be given the opportunity to review the PICs process in a bottom up manner?
- On the topic of gTLD auction proceeds, does the board plan to accept the community suggestions via the CCWG current being chartered or will the board unilaterally decide the uses for the sequestered funds? In the case of a unilateral decision what will be the boards basis for the decision, and what inputs will the board be soliciting apart from the CCWG initiated by the GNSO
