* Item 1: Approval of the Agenda
http://www.dnso.org/dnso/notes/20021219.GNSOteleconf-agenda.html
* Item 2. Change of constituency names from the old DNSO constituencies
to new GNSO.
No action needed as this is covered in the section 5 of the Transition
Article of the New bylaws.
From: http://www.icann.org/minutes/minutes-appb-15dec02.htm
"The Generic Names Supporting Organization ("GNSO") shall commence
operations upon the adoption of this Transition Article, and the
following six DNSO constituencies shall automatically become
constituencies of the GNSO, initially under their existing charter:
a. The commercial and business entities constituency of the DNSO shall
become the Commercial and Business Users constituency of the GNSO.
b. The gTLD registries constituency of the DNSO shall become the gTLD
Registries constituency of the GNSO.
c. The ISP and connectivity providers constituency of the DNSO shall
become the Internet Service and Connectivity Providers constituency of
the GNSO.
d. The non-commercial domain name holders constituency of the DNSO
shall become the Non-Commercial Users constituency of the GNSO.
e. The registrars constituency of the DNSO shall become the Registrars
constituency of the GNSO.
f. The trademark, other intellectual property and anti-counterfeiting
interests constituency of the DNSO shall become the Intellectual
Property Interests constituency of the GNSO.
Notwithstanding the adoption or effectiveness of the New Bylaws, each
GNSO constituency described in paragraph 2 of this Section 5 shall
continue operating as before and no constituency official, task force,
or other activity shall be changed until further action of the
constituency, provided that each GNSO constituency shall submit to the
ICANN Secretary a new charter and statement of operating procedures,
adopted according to the constituency's processes and consistent with
the New Bylaws, no later than 15 July 2003."
Louis Touton added that the intention of changing the names was to
reflect the Blueprint.
Item 5. Budget committee motion:
In accordance with Section 5 (clause 1) of the Transition Article of
the new bylaws (http://www.icann.org/minutes/minutes-appb-15dec02.htm):
"The Domain Name Supporting Organization shall cease operations upon
the adoption of this Transition Article, except that the Names Council
of the Domain Name Supporting Organization may act for the limited
purpose of authorizing the transfer of any funds it has collected to
the benefit of the Generic Names Supporting Organization.",
The assembly convened as the DNSO Names Council for the DNSO Names
Council to approve the transfer of funds to the GNSO.
Cary Karp proposed the motion seconded by Ken Stubbs:
The GNSO budget committee is delegated the responsibility for
authorizing payment for DNSO and GNSO expenses to the same extent as
was the DNSO budget committee.
As to DNSO funds held by ICANN, they are to be transferred and to be
used for the benefit of the GNSO, provided that all DNSO obligations to
the DNSO are paid.
Roger Cochetti clarified that what was being transferred from the DNSO
to GNSO was not only all the funds but that it included any credits,
debts or other assets of value that the DNSO had.
Cary Karp made a friendly amendment, seconded by Ken Stubbs.
* The DNSO transfers to the GNSO every attribute of its financial
identity.
Motion carried unanimously.
Decision 1: Transfer every attribute of the DNSO's financial identity
to the GNSO.
Names Council meeting formally concluded.
This was the last meeting ever of DNSO Names Council.
Bruce Tonkin declared the last meeting of the DNSO Names Council closed
at 8:35 Melbourne time, December 20, and 22:35 (CET) December 19, 2002.
