WEBCAST NOV 26 - ICANN81 Readout – Highlights & Take-Aways from the Annual General Meeting #icann81 isoc.live/18598
Llegando desde las tierras lejanas de Estambul.
Mucho debate e intercambio de ideas sobre el ecosistema de internet en #ICANN81.

1 cool thing that happened during #ICANN81 was that one of the @ICANN staff was a darling & managed to bring me my copy of #TheftofFire (#TOF by @Devon_Eriksen_) all the way from the US.
This was made possible because @AnEriksenWife did quickly send it, of which I am grateful af.

Just about recovered from #ICANN81
A really great event in one of my favourite cities.
I will post a summary of the "work stuff" later, but for now my biggest takeaway (and delight) was that someone registered istanbul.cat to showcase the.... Istanbul cats!!! 🐈 👏
Following up from #ICANN81 Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) sessions last week, their communique is now out. It doesn't contain any formal GAC Advice (that the #ICANN Board needs to respond to), but it manages to pack in a lot of "Issues of Importance to the GAC"

Die Socken aus der Conference Bag sind parfümiert. Das ist neu. #ICANN81
Und auf diesen Bildern diskutieren wir alle natürlich über eine Reform der Abseitsregel. #ICANN81

#ICANN81 - Document d’information du GAC - Atténuation de l’utilisation malveillante du DNS
Rétrospective et état des lieux de l'ensemble des projets de lutte contre les abus en ligne auprès de l'ICANN

I don’t really like glorifying the number of meetings we had at ICANN and the hours we spent and call it the sign of hard work. No. #icann81
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: the 10-minute break was successful in reaching a solution. Argentina's, as well as Russia's, comments on the #GlobalDigitalCompact will be included in the meeting minutes, under a new section to be added for Communique drafting.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: while the GAC takes a break, a quick update where the rest of the Communique is...
There's no GAC advice or follow-up to previous GAC advice. At all.
Just a number of items under the "Issues of Importance to the GAC".
Don't think this has ever happened before.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: A number of States are suggesting to Argentina that its objection to #GlobalDigitalCompact be included in the minutes of the meeting, rather than the Communique. But Argentina doesn't want this. Chair calls 10 min break to try & resolve this.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: A number of GAC members are saying that the Communique needs to reflect what happened during this week, & it is stating fact that #GlobalDigitalCompact was on the (agreed) agenda for a couple of the week's sessions.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: Not even Russia, which was strongly against adopting the #GlobalDigitalCompact at the UNGA, is insisting on such a footnote. But it says that if such a footnote is included, then they want to be included alongside Argentina as opposing the GDC.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting: there's a lot of pushback against Argentina's request, noting that if a footnote states Argentina's position is included, then it's going to expand into lots of footnotes stating all 183 GAC Member States' positions.
#ICANN81 GAC Communique drafting has skidded off into a very unexpected detour. Despite #GlobalDigitalCompact & #WSIS+20 being on the official agenda of GAC sessions this week, Argentina doesn't want them mentioned, or wants a footnote that states that Argentina doesn't support the GDC.
Some people claim they spotted me working at #ICANN81. I can neither confirm nor deny.

After losing power (again!) I'm back. Don't know for how long, though, with more storms due. But I will be following and tweeting anything of interest from #ICANN81 GAC communique drafting while I still have power and connectivity.
Cute cats being cute.

Final conference day at #ICANN81. The 🐈😸🐱😺 delegation is pulling all the strings in their power. I think they want .cat back from Catalonia.

Couldn't post from #ICANN81 last night as lost power for 7 hrs due to big storms here. Router backup battery doesn't last anywhere near that long, so went spotlighting instead. This sugar glider was still wet 3 hrs post-storm. More storms predicted for tonight, so may be incommunicado again.
There is a WALLET RRtype? I see soooo interesting ways to abuse that ... :( #ICANN81 www.iana.org/assignments/...
Previously at #ICANN81: onboarding NomCom with an amazing group!
I developed the #ICANN Stakeholder Analysis Tool to allow users to explore #ICANN81 stakeholder data by country or region. It covers At-Large Structures, GAC, ccNSO, NCUC, NPOC & more, helping users analyze representation in various ICANN groups worldwide. See bitly.com/ICANNST

#ICANN81 GAC/ASO: for those not aware of RIRs, the most recent RIR, AfriNIC, has had ongoing issues for the last few years, & this plan to update the ICP is related to that.
Latest AfriNIC development: mybroadband.co.za/news/interne...
And if you search Google News, you'll find the whole history
RIR Lifecycle Recognition: A Candidate RIR must meet or demonstrate that it can meet all the requirements of an RIR specified in ICP-2 to be recognized as an RIR. • Operation: An RIR, once recognized, must continually meet all the requirements specified in ICP-2 in an auditable fashion. • Derecognition: An RIR that does not continue to meet all the requirements specified in ICP-2 may be derecognized as an RIR.
#ICANN81 GAC/ASO (Address Supporting Organization) session is all about Proposed Internet Coordination Policy 2 (ICP-2) v2 Principles, out for public comment until Dec 6 www.icann.org/en/public-co...
It updates global policy for creation & decommissioning of RIRs (IP addresses & AS numbers)
