[CWG-Stewardship] [client com] Draft: Summary of Legal Structure for CWG Proposal

[Seun Ojedeji]

To Client committee,

Kindly find a few comments/questions below:

1. The existing IANA naming functions department, administrative staff and
related resources, processes, data and know-how would be legally
transferred into PTI
I don't think there is "IANA naming function department" but there is "IANA
functions department" So i propose the following:

The IANA naming functions, related administrative staff and resources,
processes, data and know-how would be legally transferred into PTI from the
exiting "IANA functions department"

2. The IANA portion of the ICANN budget would be subject to

I think it may be useful to be more specific about the IANA budget
referred. So the wording below may be useful:

The IANA portion of the ICANN budget *related to naming* would be subject
to.......

3 .....conducted by a multi-stakeholder body, independent from ICANN

There is no section of the document that describe what independent in that
statement meant. If it mean independent of ICANN board then it should be
clearly stated.

4. The strengths of this proposed structure are as follows:
Isn't item c on also a weakness in practical sense considering that ICANN
is the source of funding of IANA?

5. The weaknesses of the proposed structure are as follows:

I think introduction of new entity/structures creates accountability
concerns which i think should be included as a weakness. Also the running
cost of those structures should be included as a weakness (overall the
end-user bears the cost)
Last but not the list, the overall statement seem to miss mention of the
formation of the charter/bylaw for the PRF?

Regards
