I must say that I find this level of bureaucracy totally unreasonable.
This is not someone from outside the organization trying to get ICANN to
reveal some secret, it is a properly chartered ICANN CWG trying to
understand its task mandated by the Board. <br><br>

I believe that any such document must be shared with the CWG, if only
with the Co-Chairs or some specific sub-set of the CWG who of course must
sign an appropriate confidentiality document and perhaps get clearance
for what they share (with an appeal process in the case of a
disagreement).<br><br>

Hi Avri,<br><br>
This was an action item for the staff from the call on 25th November. I
believe they have already put in a request for the document with the IANA
staff. Maybe Grace or Marika can update us on the request.<br><br>
&quot;<b>ACTION staff : Ask IANA staff to share details on 7.3 that might
be available for the public and/or online</b>&quot;<br>

Section C.7 in the current contract addresses issues of continuity of
operations - particularly C.7.3, according to which ICANN should have a
transition to a &quot;successor <br>

As someone whose ICANN 'job&quot; is supporting/defending the needs of
Internet users, I will point out that security and stability of the IANA
functions is of paramount importance for the ALAC as well. <br>
I look forward to the seeing how that can be assured in a potentially
disruptive switch of the IANA operator where it may be that there is no
continuity of either staff or systems. <br>

I largely agree with Christopher. I think we are creating complexity
where it does not necessarily need to be, but as we are here I want to
reiterate a few comments I made on the RFP 3 call earlier today, and
these comments come from a gTLD registry operator perspective: <br>
·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Operational stability
and reliability of the IANA service is imperative to the business
operations of registry operators and as such this should be a critical
consideration in any discussions. <br>
