Dear Colleagues, <br>
<br>
In anticipation of our call, I want to share two items of relevance
for the contingency discussion. <br>
<br>
1) Questions for "repurposed" WA4<br>
<br>
In Frankfurt we agreed to further investigate on the contingency
list by providing answers to several questions on each contingency.
There was discussion about the phrasing of the questions. Below is a
proposal attempting to merge the Charter deliverable questions with
our discussion :<br>
<div>
<ul>
<li><font face="Calibri">How relevant is the threat to the
transition of the IANA stewardship ? ie how does the
transition affect the likelihood of the threat, or the
severeness of the consequences ? </font></li>
<li><font face="Calibri">Are there existing remedies in place ?
Are these remedies robust ? </font></li>
<li><font face="Calibri">Could addressing the contingency be
achieved through amending existing accountability mechanisms
or is creating new ones necessary ? </font></li>
</ul>
2) Input from the Board Risk Committee<br>
<br>
You may remember we had requested communication from the Board
Risk Committee regarding the list of contingencies that they
consider in the course of their mission, which includes overseeing
Icann's risk management framework. <br>
<br>
Thanks to Bruce Tonkin, our Board Liaison, as well as the members
of this Committee, we have now received communication of this
list. I have attached the document. <br>
<br>
Our group should now be able to check whether the list contains
contingencies we should add. <br>
<br>
Looking forward to discussing this on our upcoming call. <br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Mathieu Weill<br>
