<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">The CWG-Stewardship meeting in Istanbul was comprehensive and productive. Lise and I chose to wait until after this meeting to respond to your note because we wanted to share with you the outcome of this meeting. In our Chairs’
<a href="https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-03-29-en">Statement</a>, you will see that the group made significant progress on both the operational and structural components of the names proposal, through the Design Team working methodology and retention
of independent legal counsellors. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">In terms of our timeline, we have moved our public comment launch date to 20 April, with a final submission to the ICG anticipated for the ICANN 53 meeting in Buenos Aires. We have adjusted our timeline per request by our chartering
organizations in order that they have enough time to ensure consensus support for the names proposal within their respective communities and using their specific processes.
<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">We recognize your concerns regarding the possibility that our proposal might affect the numbers community and we are very open to discussions with you and the CRISP team in advance of our submission to ICG. However, we have not yet finalized
a proposal and our legal advisors are working with us to analyse the implications of the so called internal model. Therefore, our suggestion at this stage is to have a call with you and Alan to give an overview of where we are and consider any possible implications
for the numbering community. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">We remain available to respond to any questions you or your community may have, and appreciate your interest in and support for the names community as we all work to achieve a successful IANA Stewardship Transition.

Subject: Request for Communication with CWG-Stewardship on Naming Related Functions</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">Dear Jonathan and Lise,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">I am writing to you as Chair of the Consolidated RIR IANA Stewardship Proposal (CRISP) team, responsible for preparation of the numbers community's response to the ICG's Request for Proposals.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">It was helpful to have the update on the CWG for Naming Related Functions progress at the session in Singapore, including the revised timeline of the process proposed by the CWG-Names, with a CWG-Names proposal submission in June later
this year. This revised timeline increases the need for collaborative and constructive work in the ICG as well as between all three stakeholder communities to progress efficiently with the timeline. We remain positive that a proposal satisfactory to all parties,
can be produced through this process.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">The ICG's decision to seek proposals from the three separate affected communities reflects the distinct needs, mechanisms and historical development of these three communities. At the same time, developing a proposal that satisfactorily
addresses stewardship of all the IANA functions is a priority for all parties.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">With this in mind, I would like to request that the Chairs of the CWG-Names communicate directly to the Chair and Vice-Chair of the CRISP team, regarding any proposals or developments that might affect the numbers community in advance,
and not wait for the final submission to the ICG.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">This level of direct communication and collaboration will allow all communities to consider the impact and potential compatibility issues among the proposals ahead of the ICG consolidation process, consult appropriately within their
communities, and, if necessary, develop appropriate responses efficiently, rather than wait for inputs from the numbers community after the ICG consolidates proposal from all the operational communities. Such bottom-up consideration by all communities will
be essential to the authority and success of any final proposal to the NTIA.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">I look forward to hearing of your continued progress, and to work collaboratively with you to achieve a successful outcome for all, of the IANA Stewardship transition.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">Kind regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">Izumi Okutani, Alan Barrett<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">CRISP Team Chair, Vice-Chair<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoPlainText">___________________<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></span><style><!--
