<br>
On Mon, Apr 06, 2015 at 11:04:14AM +0200, Lise Fuhr wrote:<br>
&gt; Please see the attached initial discussion draft of the two models from our legal counsel.<br>
<br>
Thanks for this.  I&#39;ve read it.  I have some questions.  Questions for<br>
Sidley are listed, and then some observations for our own discussion<br>
(which needn&#39;t take up Sidley&#39;s time) follow when appropriate in<br>
square brackets.<br>
<br>
In I.A, particularly in numbers 4 and 6, I can&#39;t tell whether the<br>
assumption is that there are new agreements between PTI and the RIRs,<br>
and PTI and IETF.  I think the fact that PTI is a new legal entity<br>
means that new agreements would be required.  Is that correct?  [The<br>
reason I ask this is because there is a possible risk of things coming<br>
apart if the other operational communities need to be engaged in a new<br>
negotiation.  If PTI just takes the existing agreements and does a<br>
global search and replace for ICANN with PTI, that&#39;s nice, but it<br>
doesn&#39;t solve everything.  For instance, the IETF would have to<br>
publish a new version of RFC 2860.  It&#39;s worth remembering that every<br>
grievance everyone has with an existing document comes into play once<br>
the document is opened for editing.]<br></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;display:inline">​</div></div><div><div class="h5"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
By way of comparison, in II.B, does using Functional Separation permit<br>
ICANN to continue working under its existing MoUs?  I&#39;d assume yes,<br>
because AFAIK none of the existing agreements specify the internal<br>
arrangements of how ICANN delivers the service.  [Notwithstanding<br>
Milton&#39;s point about getting it &quot;right&quot;, given the timeline there is a<br>
significant advantage to not having to negotiate, I think, no?]<br>
<br>
III.C talks about CSC.  In the case of a full legal separation with<br>
independent governance, would the CSC be needed at all?  Presumably<br>
the arrangements between PRI and their customers would be a<br>
contractual one, and as such the management of such contractual<br>
disputes ought to be via those contracts, and not through an extra<br>
body.  Or is the point that the way such a contractual arrangement<br>
would solve such disputes ought to be along the lines of the CSC?<br>
<br>
In III.D.2 there is a question about &quot;ultimate accountability over<br>
ICANN&#39;s stewardhip&quot;.  I&#39;m not entirely sure which cases this applies<br>
to.  If there is a legal separation, how is this question relevant for<br>
CWG?  Under the legal separation described, PTI becomes the new IANA<br>
functions operator.  If there&#39;s full independent governance of PTI,<br>
for instance, isn&#39;t ICANN&#39;s stewardship completely gone -- it has only<br>
responsibility for policy, and not for IANA operation at all, right?<br>
Is that part of the point of this question?<br>
<br>
On III.I, I&#39;m not sure what the difference is between CSC and IRP.<br>
Why are both things needed?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
