1. Protocol Council Members thoughtfully analyzed the At-Large Study Committee Draft Report
on ICANN Membership. The PSO PC has not reached consensus on comments to the ALSC document.
That is why ETSI representatives and IETF representatives submitted their respective comments.
ITU-T representatives did not provided any additional comments. W3C representatives did not
provide comments. The comments sent to the ALSC can be viewed at the following address:

2. The issue of SRS (shared registry system) was brought to the consideration of the
Protocol Council and it was decided to further study this issue and to discuss it again.
3. The issue of ccTLD Support organization was raised by Mr. H. Schink, Director of the
ICANN Board. There were no objections for the creation of such organization.
ETSI representatives stressed that as long as the number of seats allocated to PSO on
the ICANN Board were not going to decrease, any new Supporting Organization is welcome.
4. PSO-PC Report for the ICANN Meeting was discussed. Protocol Council Members tasked the
secretary to contact Mr. S. Lynn, CEO of ICANN, in order to ask him for some clarifications
concerning the procedures and matters to be included in the report. The secretary was tasked to
prepare a draft of the report on the PSO-PC activities and to submit it to the
Protocol Council Members for their consideration.
5. Security issues in the Internet were discussed. It was decided to ask each organization to
report to PSO-PC on the activities in the security field. After this step, Protocol Council will
decide on the further actions.
6. The issue of a Nominee to the ICANN Internationalized Domain Names Committee was discussed on
the suggestion of Mr. S. Lynn, who sent the Note to PSO-PC, asking whether PSO-PC was interested
to propose its candidate to this Committee. The secretary was tasked to ask Mr. Stuart Lynn for
some clarifications on the procedures of elections and nominations. The Protocol Council will
need some more time to take its decision. ETSI representatives proposed their candidate,
Mr. Roberto Laorden, member of the Board of CORE (Council of Registrars) and member of the
ICANN Group on Evaluation of new gTLDs.
7. Mr. Fabio Bigi is going to take his retirement at the end of this month.
He will ensure his functions of Protocol Council Member until the new representative of TSB
will be appointed. All Protocol Council Members expressed their warm friendly feelings and
whished Mr. Fabio Bigi all the best.
8. The next teleconference was scheduled on Friday, December 7, at 15h00 CET.
