For now I would like to state that I believe it is good that the list is back up, and I am looking forward to finding ways for us to make the most out of this group. Best, On 19 Sept 2023 10:39, Carolina Caeiro wrote:
Hi Michele, Thank you for this message, we are excited to hear you've subscribed to the list and we greatly appreciate your feedback. In reaction to your question, we drafted the action plan to have a text to work from. The action plan is not written in stone, and as a matter of fact, we are actively looking for inputs and intend to update it to reflect the contributions from the group. In terms of the contents of the plan, our intention was precisely to focus on constructive, positive conversation: how can we do better, address governance gaps, and reinforce forms of multi stakeholder cooperation on DNS related issues. As much as these conversations play out in other spaces, we find the DC has much to contribute to ongoing IGF discussions as well. Having said this, it would be great to know whether you have any specific elements or language that you would like to see reflected in the plan so we can discuss those here in the list. Many thanks, Carolina

Carolina et al
I’ve added myself to the new mailing list as I am curious to see where this group is going.
I am, however, a little confused as to why the group was not consulted in the drafting of the “work plan” before it was made public.
With respect to the work plan, why is it so focussed on the negative? There are already plenty of fora for more interminable discussions around “abuse”, cyber security threats (which are much broader than the DNS) and other elements.
Regards
Michele

I have sent this email at a time that is convenient for me. I do not expect you to respond to it outside of your usual working hours.
*From: *Carolina Caeiro <carolina.caeiro@oxil.co.uk> *Date: *Monday, 18 September 2023 at 15:51 *To: *dc-dnsi@lists.dnsrf.org <dc-dnsi@lists.dnsrf.org> *Cc: *Smith, Nikolis <nsmith@verisign.com> *Subject: *Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues - Reactivating the group + updates
Dear all,
It is a pleasure to resume contact with all members of the Dynamic Coalition on DNS Issues.
This is Carolina Caeiro from the DNS Research Federation and Nik Smith from Verisign. Nik and I have been collaborating on reactivating the work of the DC-DNSI over the last couple of months.
As the WSIS+20 process approaches, we believe it is important for the IGF to continue featuring conversations on the role of the DNS in Internet governance and explore how the Internet community can strengthen multi stakeholder responses to address issues that involve the DNS.
We are reaching out to invite you to join the conversation!
We have *updated the work plan for the DC-DNSI*. You can access the text here <https://www.intgovforum.org/en/content/dynamic-coalition-on-dns-issues-dc-dnsi>. We are happy to take any feedback you may have on the proposed lines of work, either through the mailing list or if you’d like to contact us directly.
We have *secured a spot in the agenda of the forthcoming IGF*. Our session entitled *"Closing the Governance Gaps: New Paradigms for a Safer DNS" is tentatively scheduled for Monday October 9 from 17:00 to 18:30 Kyoto time (UTC+9)*. You may find the session description here <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2023-dc-dnsi-closing-the-governance-gaps-new-paradigms-for-a-safer-dns&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1695035071339233&usg=AOvVaw35tHtlcUO9xIaC7sKpmx7Q>. The goal is to have a conversation about existing and emerging governance gaps in combating DNS-related online threats and explore concrete actions needed to bridge those gaps from across the Internet ecosystem. This will be a great opportunity for the community to provide input and feedback on the proposed action plan for the coalition.
Here are some concrete actions we would appreciate from the members of this mailing list:
·*Confirm your continued interest in the DC-DNSI.* We would like to update the list of participating stakeholders, so if you would like to continue participating in the Dynamic Coalition, please subscribe to the new mailing list here <https://lists.dnsrf.org/postorius/lists/dc-dnsi.lists.dnsrf.org/>.
·*Give us input on the proposed action plan. * You can do this via email to the mailing list, individual emails to the points of contact, or at the IGF session itself. Depending on the appetite of the group, we may organise an interim meeting ahead of the IGF in Kyoto.
·*Join the session at IGF 2023.* We have a diverse set of speakers, and would love to have as many members of this mailing list to join the conversation. We will be circulating scheduling details once the final IGF agenda is confirmed.
We are excited to reactivate the work of the DC-DNSI and facilitate conversations among the members of this group.
We look forward to your feedback.
Warm regards,
Carolina & Nik
