#ICANN84: the churn of GAC reps continues - 32 new GAC reps joined GAC since #ICANN83 in June.
Note: constant turnover of GAC reps means there's always a need for capacity-building. It also means many newbie questions get asked in GAC sessions that otherwise would be deep dives on policy issues.

V. GAC Consensus Advice to ICANN Board The following items of advice from the GAC to the Board have been reached on the basis of consensus as defined in the ICANN Bylaws: 1. Policy Development Related to DNS Abuse a. The GAC advises the Board: To urge the GNSO Council to undertake all necessary preparations prior to ICANN84 towards starting targeted and narrowly scoped Policy Development Processes (PDPs) on DNS Abuse issues, prioritizing bulk registration of malicious domain names and the responsibility of registrars to investigate domains associated with registrant accounts that are the subject of actionable reports of DNS Abuse.
RATIONALE Before new strings are added to the DNS as a result of the next round, further work on DNS Abuse is needed to stem the increasing cost to the public of phishing, malware, botnets, and other forms of DNS abuse. Furthermore, the GAC encourages PDPs that are targeted and clearly scoped to achieve results according to shorter timelines. The GAC appreciates the wealth of proposals for further policy work recently expressed by different parts of the community and maintains they all deserve attention. The GAC supports multistakeholder action to achieve Consensus Policy outcomes and encourages, for the time being, prioritization of specific issues such as malicious use of bulk registrations. Given this timeline, the GAC encourages progress on commencing narrowly-scoped PDPs between ICANN83 and ICANN84.
The #ICANN83 GAC Communique has been put to bed! There is only one piece of consensus advice, regarding DNS abuse. There will now be a 72-hour review period before the Communique is published officially.

Proposed #ICANN83 GAC Communique draft consensus advice text on DNS Abuse Policy Development parked for now, so GAC members have more time to review it. GAC moves to draft text (and there is a lot text there!) in the "Issues of importance to the GAC" section.
![[Topic Leads: EC, JP, US]
1. Policy Development
a. The GAC advises the Board:
To direct the GNSO Council to develop and publish an issues report, prior to
ICANN84, addressing the following: the bulk registration of malicious domain names; and the ability of registrars to investigate domains associated with registrant accounts that are the subject of actionable reports of DNS Abuse.
RATIONALE
Before new strings are added to the DNS as a result of the next round, further work on DNS Abuse is needed to stem the increasing cost to the public of phishing, malware, botnets, and other forms of DNS abuse. Further, the GAC strongly supports a significant shift and "step-change" in how PDPs are conducted at ICANN and encourages policy work that is targeted and clearly scoped to achieve results according to shorter timelines.

🔐Na reunión de #ICANN xa estamos entrando en materia: falamos de mellorar a seguridade para todas, complicando as cousas para quen suplantan identidades de empresas ou persoas na rede. #ICANN83 🔐
The team from ICANN staff, has worked very hard with good faith to produce an application program that is available and understandable to any qualified applicant. They have been very true to the policy in the implementation design and kept the notion of equitability in mind and were very receptive to community comments. And yet, I am concerned. Not about the implementation's intent, nor necessarily its design. But rather, I am concerned about the implementation itself. It is not easy, even for some of us who are experienced with ICANN, its lingo, and its way with forms. Those handling the process, are not well trained in the variety of ways things are named and done in the global non profit and service worlds. They do not seem to be flexible in understanding the varieties and features of a deserving applicant. Those who should meet the intent of the policy, but do not have identities, names, or processes that are not Western, i,.e California look alikes, face difficulty. Those processing also do not seem willing or capable of doing the research necessary to understand responses. They reject with statements that the applicants knows are patently false. Perhaps researching answers to understand them is not their inclination nor their job, but they respond with answers, sometimes containing false statements, that need an ICANN translator to understand. ASP applicants need as much assistance with the application for ASP as they will need for the TLD application itself. This does not seem to be available to them. Additionally I am concerned about outreach - there are too few even trying to apply for ASP.
#ICANN83 GAC is meeting with ALAC (At-large Advisory Committee). @avri.bsky.social says she's been helping someone fill out the new gTLD Applicant Support Program form, & even as a longtime ICANN insider, found it confusing; very concerned about targeted groups of applicants giving up completely.
#ICANN83 GAC Chair, following up on community concerns re USA's statement yesterday: "The GAC is not intending to stop the next round of gTLDs [...] I heard many weird questions in that regard, so again, to my knowledge, I have not heard a single GAC member stating anything related to that concept."

I'm participating online from Brisbane, meaning I can enjoy being up close & personal with the local wildlife before the meeting day starts, e.g. this hungry baby cockatoo begging anyone (bird or human) nearby to feed it!
If you're at the #ICANN83, visit our booth. We will be happy to introduce you our main projects #FRED, #KnotDNS or #KnotResolver and you can also take a photo with us. See you at the CZ.NIC booth! #ICANN

I happen to find myself at #ICANN83 this week. Happy to talk to you if you are there too.
#ICANN83 session on #WSIS20 is just beginning. ICANN community perspectives on WSIS can be a little niche (focused mostly on ICANN and IGF), so it'll be interesting to see if this session manages to address the wider context of WSIS.
Excited 🤩 Strategic agreement made Shreedeep Rayamajhi!! Stay tuned for the #DNForum updates!! Helmuts
