[CWG-Stewardship] DT O recommendations

[Marika Konings]

Dear All,

On behalf of Design Team O, please find attached the proposed
recommendations for inclusion in the transition plan following the
recommended format (short form / long form). As you may recall, the purpose
statement of DT O is:

The costs of providing the IANA services by ICANN under its agreement with
the NTIA are not sufficiently separated from other ICANN expenses in the
ICANN operating plans and budgets to determine reasonable estimates of
projected costs after the IANA stewardship is transferred away from NTIA.
The need for clearer itemization and identification of IANA operations costs
is consistent with current expectations of the interested and affected
parties of the IANA functions, and the broader community as expressed in
ATRT1 and ATRT2, to separate policy development and IANA operations.
Increased detail is provided in the FY16 Draft ICANN Operating Plan & Budget
but it is still not deemed sufficient for estimating the total costs of
delivering the IANA services. As part of the development and submission of a
complete proposal for the transition of the stewardship of the IANA naming
services, the CWG is expected to indicate the information and level of
detail it expects to receive from ICANN in relation to the IANA budget in
the future. 

In addition to the recommendations included in the template, DT O also
recommends that:
* After the work of DT-O is complete, the outcome(s) of this effort may be
found useful to contribute to submissions for the Public Comment period on
the Draft ICANN FY16 Operating Plan & Budget
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/op-budget-fy16-2015-03-18-en> . The
DT-O outcome(s) should also be submitted as a contribution to the
CCWG-Accountability considering their work on the Budget and their specific
request to the CWG-Stewardship for information on this topic.
For your information, DT O worked closely with ICANN Finance on this topic
which provided very useful information with regards to the current IANA
operational spending. The DT has requested that the ICANN Finance Team
provide a report to the CWG as soon as possible containing the most current
forecast of all IANA operating costs for FY 15, itemized to the project
level and below as necessary. The Finance team will aim to provide this
information by Monday end of day Pacific time (in time for discussion during
the second half of the high intensity meetings). An initial version of the
information was provided to DT-O, and it being reviewed for further
clarification based on discussions in DT-O meetings.

Best regards,

Marika
