[DTL] Lets get started!

[James Gannon]

And I'm a glutton for more work so here some text to get us started:

III.A.1.1.1- [Title]

Background / Current State

Currently section C.7.3 of the NTIA IANA Functions Contract defines the requirement for a transition to successor plan. A deliverable to this clause has been provided by ICANN located at https://www.iana.org/reports/2014/transition-plan-201404.pdf

Issues Identified & Rationale for Changes, if any


*         The transition to successor plan is extremely high level and does not provide any operational details with which a transition may be executed.

*         A functional plan outlining the steps and requirements of both parties must be produced to preserve the stability and integrity of the IANA functions during any transition period.

[Reference the current language of the IANA Functions Contract, if applicable]

Proposed Language

N/A


1.       Any transition in the operations of the IANA functions will be performed as per the requirement of the Technical Transition Plan - (Located either as a standalone doc or in an appendix)

2.       The Integrity, Stability and Availability of the IANA functions will be maintained during any transition process.

3.       Both the current and future IANA functions operators will be required to fully engage in the transition plan.

4.       Both parties will be required to provide adequate staff availability to facilitate the transition of operations.


Thoughts?

Hi All,
I have made some further additions to the document, I have copied across the text of the existing planning document so that we can reference and critique it on the document, I have also added Gurus critique which I believe is a good start for us on Phase 1 of the work namely as assessment of the existing documentation.

I have also started adding some generic check summing and sampling criteria for any data transfer, as these are my own perspective I have added them as suggestions before putting them into the document as text, please feel free to critique any additions.

There are 2 items that I would like to get some input from the team on:


*         What should we aim to have ready for Istanbul?

o   Staff have provided a template for what the changes to the text of the draft proposal should be I have a copy below: (Apologies to anyone who is working in plain text emails the word doc is listed on the CWG list)


[Section Reference] - [Title]

Background / Current State

[describe the current state and any relevant background information]

Issues Identified & Rationale for Changes, if any

[Identify the issues, if any, that are the result of the IANA Stewardship Transition, and provide your rationale for any changes that need to be made as a result of the issues identified]

[Reference the current language of the IANA Functions Contract, if applicable]

Proposed Language

[Provide the current language of the IANA Functions Contract, if applicable]

[Provide your recommended language and/or changes to existing language for inclusion in the Statement of Work]




o   I think that we should have some draft text ready for this by Monday if we can, referring out to the overall technical transition plan which we will be producing.

o   I would welcome some draft language to this end if anyone is able to work on that. Currently the Chairs are asking for draft language to be submitted by 18:00UTC Monday.



*         In order to have an idea of what form some of the systems that we are coming up with a plan for I would like to suggest we ask ICANN to provide a generalized non-confidential architecture of IANAs systems to us eg:

o   Historical Requests are currently contained in a MySQL database, Secure Notification System currently runs on a Sendmail based server.

o   Even with this level of detail we can then start looking at broad data migration and verification planning.

Unfortunately as I am only a participant (And don't work somewhere that will spring for flights!) I won't be able to attend Istanbul in person but I have attempted to block out most of the two days on my calendar to attend remotely wherever I can.

I hope that we can keep up a pace of work get some good text into the draft for Istanbul and hopefully keep working on the overall plan to the best of our abilities.

Thanks in advance,
James

And I forgot to mention can we make any changes to the document using the suggestions feature of Google Docs (Change from Editing to Suggesting in top right hand corner) so that we may review the changes/additions as a group before incorporating them.

Hi All,
Apologies for not being able to make the call today, thank you to Matt for stepping in on my behalf.

Now that we have been 'presented' to the CWG on today's call, I think that it's time we begin drafting anywhere we can, even if its based on the little information that we have available to us at this point.

To this end I've drawn up a very broad document for us to begin working with, please bear in mind that this is merely intended to give us a platform to begin our drafting work on and is purely my own personal basis to begin work with. I fully expect the document may look very different by the time we are finished with our work.

I believe I have added all members of the DT with edit permissions, please let me know if I sent the edit invite to the incorrect address or if you did not receive it (First time working with Google Docs)
