Unfortunately Paul, ICANN legal has a long history at putting the interests of the corporation over public interests whenever the two conflict.  That is a key reason why the community is demanding new and more effective accountability mechanisms.

Thanks Milton

I sincerely hope that ICANN legal are NOT interfering with how IANA staff deliver technical services to the community. 

What DT-A has done is capture the current performance delivered by IANA as the baseline for any post transition SLE - see the a draft SLE document under discussion attached......  

Currently IANA delivers to the community Name Server updates, DS Record updates, WHOIS updates well within a week - and this includes having NTIA in the loop - so having an SLA that stipulates 21days for such tasks is clearly no longer fit for purpose.

Attached is the statistical analysis of current performance based on IANA's data presented to the CWG in March
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/52891144/DT-A_Statistical-Final.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1426003475000&api=v2

I genuinely believe IANA staff are trying to provide the information (true IANA needs to invest in monitoring the performance of their RZM systems - but that is trivial, two days of a competent programmers time would provide IANA and the community with the required matrices).

It would be a great shame for ICANN legal to prevent the IANA service which is delivered to the community today from being accurately captured by the SLE Group.... time will tell... and I am optimistic we will receive constructive input.

Paul
