Hi,

I had asked Elise Gerich the following:

During the CWG meeting, there were some questions (in the context of
service level expectations) related to the current IANA emergency
escalation process.  Is there a document describing the process that can
be shared? Also, what are the expectations about how long it'll take to
get an emergency change pushed through end-to-end (I realize there are a
number of non-IANA variables there)?

Her response is below.  If there are any additional questions, please let me
know.

Regards,
-drc
