Seun,

One of the points that I believe was strongly supported by the IOTF members is that the terms of the RZERC charter should be relatively light so that the group itself has reasonable freedom to decide much of its own processes and procedures.  I think many of your suggested edits may be more prescriptive than necessary for this committee, keeping in mind that it is not a decision-making body but rather an advisory body.

That said, I am sure your suggestions will be considered.

Chuck

Dear Co-Chairs/all,

Looking at the acronym "RZERC" makes me feel I probably may have been lagging behind with happenings within the CWG. ;-)

Just a few clarification question/comments:

- What is RZERC(I assume it's an acronym) as the charter does not seem to include description.

It stands for the Root Zone Evolution Review Committee



- I did a quick find on the ICG proposal and don't see reference to "RZERC", what part of the ICG (to be specific CWG) proposal is this implementing?

The name is new. The committee is described in paragraph 155 of the CWG proposal. 1155 of the ICG proposal I think.



- I note that review of charter every 5 years is indicated, but there seem to be no room to modify the charter in situations requiring urgent need.

The 5 years is a mandatory review.



- There is no process of replacing members indicated.

There is similarly no process for formally naming them. It is up to the appointing body (they all come from somewhere specific).



- What part of the ICANN(or perhaps it's going to be applicable to PTI ) bylaw recognises the formation of the RZERC

ICANN. The RZERC advises the ICANN Board and can act as an advisor to other groups as necessary (such as IANA itself)



- Is the RZERC a new ICANN AC?

It is an advisory committee, but not an Advisory Committee in the sense of the ACs defined in the Bylaws. The Board has the responsibility of approving substantive changes in the RZ architecture and operation. The RZERC is a resource it uses to do the analysis.



- Who funds the activities of the RZERC?

To the extent that it needs funds, ICANN.



- Renumeration of the group is not explicitly indicated in the charter; is this a volunteer group or a paid group?

They are paid double what I am paid and tripple what you are paid.



- What will be the connection between RZERC and PTI board (since they will be more closer to IANA than ICANN board post-transition) since it seem this group reports/works with ICANN board?

No connection. The PTI Board oversees the physical operation of PTI. The ICANN Board, replacing NTIA, is responsible for RZ issues as per the previously mentioned section of the CWG/ICG reports.
