Zoom Chat Transcript:
13:59:40 Bernard Turcotte to Everyone: hello all
00:48:18 Mike Rodenbaugh: We can look at the order and track language from there
00:54:15 Mike Rodenbaugh: Why are we deleting the examples?
01:00:47 David McAuley (Verisign): I guess I don't see the filing fee as something that ICANN would set - it should, however, protect against oneropus fees that bar a claim from starting
01:00:55 David McAuley (Verisign): onerous
01:02:45 Mike Rodenbaugh: ICANN has, in almost every case, has argued that the IRP panel cannot issue any binding order. There can be no debate about that.
01:03:31 Mike Rodenbaugh: We should confirmation from ICANN Legal about whether and to what extent they require covenants not to sue in other contexts.
01:03:37 David McAuley (Verisign): I think it is a semantic issue - the panel cannot order ICANN what to do but it can, IMO, essentially force ICANN to remedy a breach of bylaws or articles - that can be huge
01:04:09 Greg Shatan: MIke, are you referring to IRPs under the "new" bylaws, or only under the prior bylaws?
01:04:10 Mike Rodenbaugh: “Essentially force” does not equal “recommend”. Which is all the panel can do.
01:04:29 David McAuley (Verisign): their declarations are enforceable and binding
01:05:18 Sam Eisner - ICANN Org: The panel is not authorized to issue specific relief. The panel is empowered to identify if there was a Bylaws issue
01:05:30 Sam Eisner - ICANN Org: That is specified in the Bylaws
01:11:20 Mike Rodenbaugh: I think there was support from Kavouss on the list. And I am fairly confident that Malcolm and. Kristina might agree if they were here…. So the issue should be put to the list specifically?
01:12:20 David McAuley (Verisign): I agree we need to give all members a chance to weigh in on this.
01:18:46 David McAuley (Verisign): A lot of work in these strawman proposals along the way - many thanks Susan.
01:20:53 Mike Rodenbaugh: Unsurprisingly, I might blame ICANN rather than Susan…. Not seemingly a very high priority of Org.
01:21:03 David McAuley (Verisign): I support an informal get-together if possible
01:21:31 Mike Rodenbaugh: I also support
01:21:54 Greg Shatan: By "ground," do you mean "beach"?
01:22:29 Brenda Brewer - ICANN Org: When I learn of deadlines, I will let you know, Susan
01:22:57 Mike Rodenbaugh: +1 David
01:23:04 Brenda Brewer - ICANN Org: Happy to reserve an IRP-IOT Plenary for ICANN77…
01:23:49 Greg Shatan: Please no 6 hour meetings unless it is F2F.
01:29:02 David McAuley (Verisign): Thanks Susan, Bernie, Brenda, and all.
01:29:02 Mike Rodenbaugh: Thank you Susan!!
01:29:24 Bernard Turcotte: bye all
