jorge cancio (GAC): (06:03) Hi all
Brenden Kuerbis: (06:04) Hello all. Congrats CLO!
Seun Ojedeji: (06:05) Hello everyone
Lise Fuhr: (06:07) Sorry for the noise - there are ongoing construction in the building
Avri Doria: (06:09) i object
Avri Doria: (06:09) to closing a path of communications.
Lise Fuhr: (06:10) @Avri it is not closing it but use it with care and thinking of the difficulty of following too many paths
Grace Abuhamad: (06:10) The link to the documents ais here: https://icann-community.icannatlassian.orgnet/wiki/displayspaces/gnsocwgdtstwrdshp/pages/98471767/Client+Committee
Avri Doria: (06:10) i do not see why this is a chair's decsion to make.
Avri Doria: (06:12) always blaming things on non english speakers, some of who read better than speak. in my expereince.
jaap Akkerhuis (SSAC): (06:13) Read Only
Avri Doria: (06:13) i give up.
Lise Fuhr: (06:14) @Avri don't give up - we have noted your view and the chat is not closed
Grace Abuhamad: (06:17) The link to the documents ais here: https://icann-community.icannatlassian.orgnet/wiki/displayspaces/gnsocwgdtstwrdshp/pages/98471767/Client+Committee
Elise Lindeberg GAC: (06:19) thanks :)
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (06:21) I think the OTI affilkiate model seems to have very broad acceptance now
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (06:21) *PTI
Brenden Kuerbis: (06:23) Agree with Greg. 2 against PTI if I recall correctly, and a handful for more separation of PTI. The overwhelming majority support PTI.
Grace Abuhamad: (06:25) You can see the meeting notes from the April high intensity here: https://icann-community.icann.orgatlassian.net/wiki/spaces/gnsocwgdtstwrdshp/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=52896582/98472951/IANA+CWG+Meeting+39+14+April
Greg Shatan: (06:27) The concept Jonathan was encouraging is to use the chat in service of the oral discussion and not as an unrelated second stream.
Avri Doria: (06:28) it only becomes a second stream when the chairs cut offf disussion prematuruely. sometimes it take a while for the typed chat to wind down.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (06:29) At a minimum, when discussing a thread in the chat that is no longer the current live topic, it is helpful to address the person who the chat is directed to.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (06:30) There are time lags in ability to respond to comments and questions in the chat.
Paul Szyndler: (06:30) As one of the "infamous 2", I note that we placed a caveat on our comments, acknowledging that "the stakeholder community may agree to the CWG's proposal regarding an affiliate separate legal entity". In other words, we are happy to engage with the majority position
CLO: (06:35) here via AC only
Grace Abuhamad: (06:36) In sum, composition issue with IFRT
Avri Doria: (06:39) oops too late
Grace Abuhamad: (06:40) we can come back to your question Avri.
Avri Doria: (06:40) no need, i will wait for the next time around.
Grace Abuhamad: (06:40) ok
Donna Austin, RySG: (06:43) This was a concern for the RySG/RrSG
Grace Abuhamad: (06:43) NTIA Q&A: http://www.ntia.doc.gov/other-publication/2014/iana-functions-and-related-root-zone-management-transition-questions-and-answ
Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (06:43) Question to you all: are we taking these statistics as exact science? for example, when there is opposition to one of the points proposed, what percentage of silent "agree with proposal" do we derive from those results? Commenters are more likely to write comments about what they disagree with than what they agree with?
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (06:44) @OCL Sample size is small, I think these are just informative
Gary Hunt - UK Government: (06:45) Please can we have this presentation as a download? Thanks...
Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (06:45) understood Bernie. thanks. I just think there is more worth in a qualitative than quantitative analysis
Keith ccNSO: (06:45) I'm not sure that using percentages are useful in this way. It might be better to have the actual numbers of responses were "for" or "against"
Elise Lindeberg GAC: (06:46) +1 Olivier
Bernard Turcotte - Staff support: (06:46) Will add this next time
Greg Shatan: (06:47) If this is the "sample," what is the "population"?
Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (06:47) btw it is not a criticism, just a concern I have. You and other staff have done a great job
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (06:47) @Lise was speaking purely from a matamatical statistics perspective, the comments are qualitative not quantative
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (06:47) Johnathan stealing my thoughts
Greg Shatan: (06:48) In other words, do we think that this is not indicative of the larger stakeholder population?
Greg Shatan: (06:49) I do not think that, and I think that calling this a "sample" is not correct from the point of view of statistics.
Alan Greenberg: (06:49) Re multi-year reserve. Not 100% that this is something that must be in our proposal. But should be responsibly considered.
Gary Hunt - UK Government: (06:50) Maybe worth stating both percentages and real numbers. Also worth stating what the 'silent' component is.... the latter result would be open to interpretation!
Greg Shatan: (06:51) Neutral jurisdiction worked well for FIFA. Until it didn't.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (06:52) @ Gary: Bernie sent the presentation to the list a couple hours ago.
Brenden Kuerbis: (06:52) It may be helpful for CWG to provide some justificiation for why U.S. jurisdiction is adequate. Perhaps this will ameliorate the concerns.
Alan Greenberg: (06:53) Neutral = coe name for Switzerland
Alan Greenberg: (06:53) coe is code name for code
Donna Austin, RySG: (06:53) or could be code for non-US jurisdiction
Greg Shatan: (06:54) Home of cuckoo clocks, chocolates and secrets.
Martin Boyle, Nominet: (06:54) @ Greg: and of FIFA?
Greg Shatan: (06:54) Indeed.
Staffan Jonson: (06:55) However, I believe that e.g. CRISP comment should be read between the lines
Mary Uduma: (06:56) @AtFF +1
Mary Uduma: (06:57) @stffan +1
Keith ccNSO: (06:57) Apologies for leaving early - I have another meeting now
Lise Fuhr: (06:57) Bye Keith
Avri Doria: (07:01) many people have difficulty extrapolating an implementation from the fundamentsl.
Grace Abuhamad: (07:02) Please mute your lines
Elise Lindeberg GAC: (07:02) will it be possible to identify in the slides who is behind the responses /statistics
Greg Shatan: (07:03) +1 to Elise's request - a scoresheet would be helpful.
jorge cancio (GAC): (07:03) +1 Elise (we may identify submissions shortly e.g. by numbering them)
Gary Hunt - UK Government: (07:04) Chuck: I don't I received the Presentation... even checked my Spam filter! Bernie, please can this be sent to me again?
Elise Lindeberg GAC: (07:04) it should be possible to do quite easy
Grace Abuhamad: (07:04) Gary -- I'll post it to the Wiki now and post link
Mary Uduma: (07:05) Is it possible to have a sense of percentage of silent responses?
Gary Hunt - UK Government: (07:05) Thanks Grace!
Stephanie Duchesneau: (07:05) thank you guys!
Stephanie Duchesneau: (07:05) a lot of work clearly went into this
Seun Ojedeji: (07:05) thanks
Gary Hunt - UK Government: (07:05) Excellent presentation... well done!
Staffan Jonson: (07:06) Excellent, Thanks
CLO: (07:06) Yes very helpful presentation... Thanks Bernie
Bernard Turcotte - Staff support: (07:07) Welcome
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:07) +1 Chuck and I think we may need a public comment on our final proposal.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:08) Thanks Lise.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:09) Was adding my feelings to his fundamentals
Avri Doria: (07:09) i think the SOAC that have to approve have the option of tailoring comments to their votes if they wish.
Avri Doria: (07:10) i.e if the GNSO feels it needs a comment period before voting, it can call one.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:10) +1 Avri
Avri Doria: (07:10) likewise with ALAC or anyo of the others.
Avri Doria: (07:13) very hard to hear
Grace Abuhamad: (07:14) Gary and all -- the review tool and the presentation are uploaded here: https://community.icann.org/x/7ArxAg
Grace Abuhamad: (07:16) document is uploaded and unsynced
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:19) Q: Do that issues not need to be solved so that we can provide a timelines to ICG/NTIA
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:19) *implementation issues that is
Andrew Sullivan: (07:24) My understanding of the ICG's plan is that they're not going to "throw out" anything, but send stuff back if they have an issue
Mary Uduma: (07:25) True Andrew.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:26) Yup that was the distinction between the two that I think we need to look at, ones that affect our timeline to NTIA and ones that are more administrative
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:41) Is it normal procedure to give responses in that manner?
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:42) I would see the 'responses' as something internal, maybe just a generic statement from the chairs saying that we have recieved comments and will assess their input
Marika Konings: (07:43) @ James - staff's experience is that commenters are interested to see how their comments have been dealt with and what impact these had on the report.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:44) I wouldnt support putting a draft response document to the public forum, if its draft its just that.
Marika Konings: (07:44) it also is aligned with the concept of transparency and accountability.
Brenden Kuerbis: (07:45) Agree with James
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:46) @ James: There is not way that it can be posted as more than a draft before the June 4.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:47) Then IMO we should issue a more formal response letter, referring to the draft response document on the wiki or the list. Not release it as a standalone communication
Avri Doria: (07:48) i think it should be done transparently, but not published in an official sense.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:48) +1 Avri
Grace Abuhamad: (07:48) Transparent already because it's posted here for anyone to access: https://community.icann.org/x/7ArxAg.
Avri Doria: (07:48) snapshot can be be avaialble on the website, e.g.
Grace Abuhamad: (07:48) So we point people to the Wiki page?
Mary Uduma: (07:49) @ Grace +1
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:49) Like Alan said, we make it clear that it is not yet official and final.
Avri Doria: (07:49) with lots of caveats about the partial nature of the document.
Brenden Kuerbis: (07:49) James suggestion makes sense to me, a brief communication explaining the context and caveats
Grace Abuhamad: (07:50) Would anyone like to draft the "disclaimer" for the document
Grace Abuhamad: (07:50) ?
Avri Doria: (07:50) and the indication that many repsonse have been contributed by the chairs & staff. and while they are perfect in every way, they may not correspiod to the consensus of the group.
jaap Akkerhuis (SSAC): (07:50) Just put a link to the wikiwith an explanation in front of it?
Avri Doria: (07:50) yes, Jaap
Brenden Kuerbis: (07:50) @avri yes, that should be clear
Mary Uduma: (07:51) Yes Jaap
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:51) Chairs statement with a link to the draft on the wiki is perfectly transparent and shows that we are assessing the responses
Avri Doria: (07:51) or written across every page.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:51) @ Jonathan: Note that the DTs may need most of next week to finish their public comment responses.
Avri Doria: (07:52) good idea Holly
Brenden Kuerbis: (07:52) Good suggestio Holly
Donna Austin, RySG: (07:52) Agree with Chuck's commenton DT
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:52) Great suggestion
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:52) @ Holly: The response column is what is at issue.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:53) Agree with Greg on response column.
Avri Doria: (07:54) that generic thanks yoou might be inappropriate before the discussion has been held.
Brenden Kuerbis: (07:55) To Greg's point. E.g., a debatable comment "PTI is an entity for the operation of IANA naming services only."
Greg Shatan: (07:55) The generic thank you is somewhat gratuitous. They really don't add anything and can be deleted.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:55) @ Avri: Disagree.
Holly Gregory (Sidley): (07:55) That was my reaction Avri
Alan Greenberg (ALAC): (07:55) Some truth in Avri's grumpy self!
Greg Shatan: (07:55) "Your call is very important to us."
Greg Shatan: (07:56) The assignments are more important, since they show our work.
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:56) Regardless of whether we have finsished reviewing the comments or not, we are still thankful for the input.
James Gannon [GNSO-NCSG]: (07:56) "We have begun to work on responses, our first draft is available at XXXX"
Mary Uduma: (07:57) Thanks and bye
Holly Gregory (Sidley): (07:57) This has been an excellent kick-off to our intensive
Cheryl Langdon-Orr: (07:57) ok talk soon then
Chuck Gomes (RySG): (07:57) Thanks all.
