Summary:
*Tasks 1 and 2: Scott Pinzon, Ken Bour, and Chris Chaplow presented their proposal for how to enhance GNSO.icann.org. They based their ideas on the business requirements previously approved by the CCT, supplemented by the results of 17 in-depth interviews and 230 survey responses from users of gnso.icann.org and icann.org. According to the research, the top three most common tasks of visitors to gnso.icann.org are: 1) Trying to find a specific document; 2) Managing tasks by using the GNSO calendar; and 3) Trying to learn the latest developments on a policy issue. Scott and team then presented seven wireframe pages indicating how the site could be reorganized to optimize for those three tasks. Additionally, they shared ideas on how the site could become friendlier to newcomers and reflect the human side of the GNSO community. The chair and co-chair endorsed the proposed approach as work product of the CCT, and are now seeking opportunities to gain further input from GNSO constituencies.
