The GNSO is one of the chartering organizations for the Cross Community Working Group that was tasked to develop a proposal on Naming Related Functions for the IANA Stewardship Transition (CWG-Stewardship). A draft proposal was published for community comment on 1 December 2014, with a revised timeline and update provided for discussion at ICANN52 in Singapore. The CWG-Stewardship’s updated proposal was subsequently published for public comment (ending on 20 May), following which its Final Report was submitted on 11 June 2015 to all its chartering SO/ACs for discussion during ICANN53. The aim is that an approved final proposal will then be submitted to the IANA Stewardship Coordination Group (ICG) for consolidation with the other proposals from the Numbering Resources and Protocol Parameters communities, for submission to the NTIA.

In discussions around the IANA stewardship transition, the broader topic of the impact on ICANN's accountability was raised, given ICANN’s historical contractual relationship with the United States government. The community concerns indicated that existing ICANN accountability mechanisms do not yet meet some stakeholders’ expectations. Considering that the US Government (through the NTIA) has stressed that it expects community consensus on the transition, this gap between the current situation and stakeholder expectations needed to be addressed. This has been done through the chartering of a Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability – CCWG-Accountability, of which the GNSO is a chartering organization.
