Transfer Policy Review Policy Development Process (TPR-PDP) - (10 minutes)
Discussion on Recommendation 33 (5 mins)
Recommendation #33 –Request to GNSO for further work on Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy and Potential New Dispute Mechanism - The working group recommends the GNSO request an Issues Report or other suitable mechanism to further research and explore the pros and cons of (i) expanding the TDRP to registrant filers and (ii) creating a new standalone dispute resolution mechanism for registrants who wish to challenge improper transfers, including compromised and stolen domain names. There remains a need for an intermediary mechanism to remedy unauthorized transfers between ToS claw backs and litigation as well as other issues as may be identified by the GNSO.
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.
The PTI Board has developed this draft Strategic Plan with IANA staff and the broader ICANN org to cover 2025 through 2030. The plan defines PTI's strategy in delivering the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions and represents a subset of the ICANN’s strategy. The plan provides an in-depth look at the IANA-related strategic objectives that will help PTI continue to provide secure and accountable management of the Internet's unique identifier systems. Your insights are crucial to ensuring its success and alignment with community needs.

Following the GNSO Council’s approval, the ICANN Board is seeking the community’s input on the Phase 2 Final Report regarding the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) (hereafter “EPDP-IDNs”). The GNSO Council’s approval on all twenty (20) Outputs, including fourteen (14) policy recommendations and six (6) implementation guidance, obligates the Board to adopt the recommendations under the ICANN Bylaws, unless, by a vote of more than two-thirds, the Board determines that the policy is not in the best interest of the ICANN community or ICANN.
This is the third 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.
Over the course of recent Specific Review cycles, the community, Board, and ICANN org identified areas that posed challenges to ability of the Reviews to effectively fulfill their purpose. To address these areas, ICANN org developed a series of process improvements and integrated them into an updated Draft Operating Standards for Specific Reviews. Updates to the Draft Operating Standards are focused on improving Review scope setting/planning, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of Review work, and incorporating best project management practices into the Specific Reviews process.
