[CCWG-ACCT] report and next steps

[Thomas Rickert]

Dear CCWG-Accountability,

We wanted to inform you that the revisions have been made from the comments that have been received from the lawyers, several community members, and from the 16 February call. These have been incorporated into the sections that were noted. The graphics are being revised and will be placed in the final version of the text per the suggestions that have been submitted to date.

The revised sections have been posted at https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw <https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw> for your final review. We have also posted a documents that tracks all the comments — and subsequent changes made — between the 12 February and 17 February documents.

The schedule presented on the 16 February call that we are following to conclude our current work on Work Stream 1 has been updated.

12 Feb — Report sent by 22:00 UTC to the CCWG Leadership Team and CCWG Legal Counsel for review with all materials posted on the Wiki (https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw <https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw>) for everyone to view.

15 Feb — Report updated (if needed) to incorporate edits from CCWG Leadership Team and Legal.

17 Feb— Report sent to CCWG for 48-hour review (and posted on the Wiki at https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw <https://community.icann.org/x/iw2AAw>).

To ensure that all comments from our CCWG Leadership Team and Legal counsel were accurately incorporated for the full group review period, distribution to the CCWG was updated to 17 Feb. To maintain the 48-hour review period, all subsequent proposal finalization dates have been extended one day. All other dates have been retained.

18 Feb at 17:00 UTC – Minority statements due for incorporation into Final Report.

19 Feb – Final Report sent to Chartering Organizations for consideration and approval.

Once the Final Report is in the hands of your organizations, these are the expected dates for the final steps, as we discussed on the Transition Program Facilitation <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/transition-facilitation-2015-09-23-en> call this past Tuesday:

25 Feb – CWG-Stewardship sign-off letter delivered to Chartering Organizations, then to ICG.

By 9 Mar at the latest – Sign-off on Final Report by Chartering Organizations at ICANN55 in Marrakech (in time for the Board to consider).

10 Mar – Public Board Meeting and hand over from ICANN Board to NTIA.

Based on the updated schedule, minority statements must be submitted no later than 18 February at 17:00 UTC to allow for the final supplemental proposal to be produced and ready for distribution to the Chartering Organizations on 19 February.

If you have any questions about our timeline or suggestions for our process, please let us know how we can assist.

Sincerely,
Mathieu, León and Thomas
CCWG-Accountability Co-Chairs
