WEBINAR: Cross Community Working Group (CWG) On IANA Naming Related Functions: Briefing on 2nd Draft Proposal for Public Comment

Following the request of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), an agency of the U.S Department of Commerce, for ICANN to "convene a multistakeholder process to develop a plan to transition the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the IANA Functions and related root zone management, a Cross Community Working Group (CWG-Stewardship) was formed with the purpose of developing a consolidated transition proposal for the elements of the IANA Functions relating to domain names.

The CWG-Stewardship held briefing webinars on the first draft proposal on 3-4 December 2014, and subsequently received nearly 60 public comments. Following the close of the public comment period, the CWG-Stewardship reviewed the comments and continued to work at an intense pace to prepare its transition proposal, through more than 30 teleconferences, a working session at ICANN 52 in Singapore in February, a face-to-face meeting in Istanbul in March and, most recently, during a two-day meeting block with over 12 hours of conferences to converge on the 2nd draft proposal.

With the aim to submit its final proposal to the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) by the close of ICANN 53 in June, the CWG-Stewardship highlights the importance of broader community input of their draft, for which the group has received independent legal counsel for structural considerations and external expertise to bolster operational sections.

The CWG-Stewardship will hold two identical webinars at different times to facilitate participation across time zones. The webinars will take place on:

24 April from 06:00 – 07:30 UTC (time zone converter here)
24 April from 14:00 – 15:30 UTC (time zone converter here)

The webinars will be run in an Adobe Connect room.

Cheryl Langdon-Orr: (01:28) :-) :-) :-)

Grace Abuhamad: (01:41) Public Comment Input Template: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/cwg-stewardship-input-template-pdf-22apr15-en.pdf

Grace Abuhamad: (01:41) There is also a Word version posted

Grace Abuhamad: (01:42) the Email to submit comments: comments-cwg-stewardship-draft-proposal-22apr15@icann.org

Susan Payne - Valideus: (01:45) Could you explain again the make up of the PTI - did you say it is a whooly owned subsidiary of ICANN? Will the Board members of the PTI be a subset of the iCANN Board, or independent?

Anupam Agrawal: (01:46) Is PTI ging to be a seperate legal entity?

Stephen: (01:47) You are proposing that ICANN staff compose the board of PTI?

Jian-Chuan Chang (KNET): (01:48) +1 to Stephen

Jian-Chuan Chang (KNET): (01:48) same concern for me

Olivier Crépin-Leblond: (01:48) I have downloaded the presentation. Are slides 10 & 11 supposed to exist?

Grace Abuhamad: (01:49) Slides 10&11 are background slides

Grace Abuhamad: (01:49) not used in webinar today

Olivier Crépin-Leblond: (01:49) ah ok - thanks. - We'd need to tag them as such

stanley shan: (01:49) I think the post transition structure,the relationship between PTI and ICANN is a littlle bit like Guam(or some other U.S Unincorporated Territory) and United States.This PTI keepls close cooperation with ICANN,but not directely by ICANN

Olivier Crépin-Leblond: (01:49) the slide deck islikely to be shared

Jia He: (01:50) Does the portocal and IP functions will be also seperated from ICANN and into the PTI?

Julie Z: (01:50) Thank you. seems that CWG proposal is very different from the other two communities about setting up a new entity PTI and several new mechanisms, will CWG deal with the inconsistency, will CWG try to sell this concept to the other two communities?

Patrik Fältström - SSAC: (01:53) The process we use in ICG is this (as Lise said, but let me be specific): *If* ICG do find incompatibilities, ICG will ask the operational communities to resolve those.

Julie Z: (01:56) Thank you Patrik, the problem will then go back to the operational communities.......

Patrik Fältström - SSAC: (01:58) Julie Z: The important thing to know is that ICG will NOT resolve issues, and that is one of the reasons the OC's have been working so hard (as Jonathan now describes) to minimize risk for such incompatibilities.

Julie Z: (02:00) thank you

Jonathan Robinson: (02:00) Thank-you. Good questions.

Patrik Fältström - SSAC: (02:02) While discussing multi stakeholder, we should separate question on this process be multi stakeholder and how multi stakeholder the solutions are.

Patrik Fältström - SSAC: (02:02) NTIA specifically required the process that leads to a solution tomulti stakeholder.

Grace Abuhamad: (02:06) We call them "implications" to match the ICG RFP text

Patrik Fältström - SSAC: (02:08) Very well done! Thanks!

Sébastien: (02:08) Thanks

Cheryl Langdon-Orr: (02:08) good call thanks Lise (and Jonathan), thanks everyone...

Yaovi Atohoun: (02:08) Thanks
