Transfer Policy Review Policy Development Process (TPR-PDP) - (N/A)
GNSO-TPR WG recommendations to Change of Registrant Data (Rec #25-28)
Steinar's recommendation is in favor of eliminating Section II from the Transfer Policy; instead, the working group recommends that a standalone “Change of Registrant Data” policy MUST be established, existing outside of the revised Transfer Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, the working group is not recommending a new PDP to establish this standalone policy; instead, the working group is recommending the Change of Registrant Data Policy be created as part of the implementation of these policy recommendations.

The ICANN Board directed the ICANN organization (org) to initiate a community consultation on Public Interest Commitments and Registry Voluntary Commitments (PICs/RVCs) to ensure that the draft framework for implementing recommendations related to PICs/RVCs is consistent with the ICANN Bylaws.
This is the second in a series of Public Comment proceedings that will seek input from the ICANN community on proposed language for the Applicant Guidebook (AGB) for the New gTLD Program: Next Round. Specifically, ICANN org is looking for input from the community on whether the proposed language is consistent with the relevant outputs from the Final Report on the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process. It should be noted that the proposed language has been developed in collaboration with theSubsequent Procedures Implementation Review Team.
The CPWG and At-Large community has decided not to comment on this proceeding.
Three new Reference LGRs for Balinese script, Thaana script, and Inuktitut language, as well as two updated Reference LGRs for Myanmar script (Full Variant Set) and Spanish language are being released for Public Comment. ICANN org seeks feedback from the broader community on these new and updated Reference LGRs.
Does the CPWG and At-Large community wish to comment on this proceeding?
Public Comment the proposed renewal of the .COM Registry Agreement (.COM RA). The current .COM RA between ICANN and Verisign, Inc. (Verisign), the registry operator for the .COM top-level domain (TLD), was established in 2012 and is set to expire on 30 November 2024. The renewal proposal is the result of bilateral discussions between ICANN and Verisign. The proposed renewal agreement for the .COM RA is based on thecurrent .COM RA, as amended byAmendment 1(2016),Amendment 2(2019), andAmendment 3(2020) and incorporates important concepts from the Base RA, including both recent amendments to the Base gTLD Registry Agreement (Base RA), bringing these enhanced obligations to the largest TLD.
Does the CPWG and At-Large community wish to comment on this proceeding?
ICANN org seeks community input and comments on the ccNSO proposed policy pertaining to the (de-)selection and validation of Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) country code Top Level Domains (IDNccTLDs), including the (de-)selection and management of variants of the IDNccTLD (Part A of the Board Report).
Does the CPWG and At-Large community wish to comment on this proceeding?
Proposed Internet Coordination Policy 2 (ICP-2) Version 2 Principles document represents the first major step in the ASO AC’s work of revising ICP-2. It sets forth the core principles that the ASO AC believes should be captured in the next version of ICP-2. The ASO AC hereby submits these principles to the Internet community for feedback. The document arranges draft principles by topic. The text of each principle is preceded by a short name that can be used for ease of reference. Definitions of capitalized terms can be found in the Glossary at the end of the document.
The draft ICANN Community Participant Code of Conduct Concerning Statements of Interest (“Code”) is the first step in addressing ICANN community requests to better guide ethical and transparent participation within the ICANN community. The draft Code embraces the reality that ICANN’s multistakeholder model is vibrant because of the variety of interests that are present within community deliberations, while expressing an expectation that those interests are clearly and fully disclosed among participants. ICANN is seeking community inputs on the draft Code, including the Enforcement Guidance set forth within the Code.
Key questions:
Does the ICANN Community Participant Code of Conduct Concerning Statements of Interest adequately address the issue of setting clear expectations for community disclosures of interests?
Are there items you believe are missing from the Code or that should be removed from the Code, and why?
Are there other ethical issues you wish to see addressed as part of the broader ICANN Community Ethics Policy?
