<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Thanks Grace. Based on the ICG decisions in Dublin, it appears that they will not be performing an oversight role of the implementation of the CWG Stewardship
recommendations. I think that means that we may need to update our implementation action item spreadsheet to remove the ICG as one of the responsible parties for certain action items. I also think that the CWG may then be the responsible party in places
where we listed the ICG.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

decided to keep its mailing lists active until 30 September 2016 to enable the community to continue to contact them, if needed. It is also seeking feedback from the threeIANA operational communities (names, numbers and protocol parameters) to see if they
would like ICG to play a role during the implementation of the IANA Stewardship Transition. The ICGwill not hold any more face-to-face meetings and will only hold conference calls on an as-needed basis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
