At ICANN57 in Hyderabad, SO/AC leaders (including the chairs of several GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies) met with ICANN staff to discuss the selection process for appointments to the forthcoming Security, Stability & Resiliency (SSR) Review Team (SSR-RT-2). It was agreed that selection of the final slate of Review Team members should be a collective effort by all SO/AC leaders, and that each SO/AC would develop its own internal guidelines for selecting its representatives for consideration (up to a maximum of 3 per SO/AC). The group also discussed how independent experts should be appointed to the Review Team. The current slate of applicants can be viewed at https://icann-community.icannatlassian.orgnet/wiki/x/xRqsAwgojJBQ. At the Council’s 1 December meeting, Susan Kawaguchi and Ed Morris confirmed that they were working on a proposed set of criteria and a uniform process for selection of GNSO representatives to all future Review Teams. The draft document (https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gnso-appointments-procedure-13dec16-en.pdf) was circulated to the Council on 13 December 2016. Here the Council will discuss the proposal, and confirm its deadline for selecting the GNSO’s representatives on the SSR-RT-2 using the new, agreed criteria and process.
