Public Comment Proceedings seek to gather opinions on proposals initiated by a working group or department. Public Comment is a mechanism that gives the ICANN community and other stakeholders an opportunity to provide input and feedback. It is a key part of the policy development process (PDP) and the Multistakeholder Model. It is meant to allow for the refinement of recommendations before further consideration and potential adoption. It is also used to guide the implementation, review, and operational activities of ICANN. All comments and email addresses are displayed in the archive for each proceeding and are visible to the public.[1]
Public Comment Proceedings apply to the following categories
- ICANN or community governance documents, such as the ICANN Bylaws, operating procedures, and community charters
- Policy recommendation reports (draſt, initial, and final) of potential, ongoing, and completed policy development processes
- Organizational reviews and specific review recommendations
- Implementation plans for policy and specific review recommendations
- Cross-community working group recommendations
- ICANN org base agreements with registry operators and registrars
- Documents that impact community policy, recommendations, or advice
Public Comment is the default mechanism for gathering feedback from ICANN members and the general public; however, alternative options include consultations and surveys, which gather input from more targeted audiences. These avenues must be approved by the ICANN Executive Committee.[2]
