I am pleased to inform you the CSC has concluded that PTI’s overall performance over November 2018 was “Satisfactory” - PTI met the service level agreement at 98.4%. PTI missed 1 service level and that was satisfactorily explained and is not considered an indication of a performance issue. The CSC was informed of no escalations. The related PTI report to the CSC, listing the individual service level metrics along with their actual and historical performance, can be found at:<a href="https://www.iana.org/performance/csc-reports"><span style='color:#954F72'>https://www.iana.org/performance/csc-reports</span></a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: auto;text-align:start;widows: auto;-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;word-spacing:0px'><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: auto;text-align:start;widows: auto;-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;word-spacing:0px'><span style='color:black'>I am also very pleased to inform you that after extensive discussions and hard work the CSC approved and adopted both the Process for Amending the IANA Naming Service Level Agreements and related procedure for Modifying the Process for Amending the IANA Naming Service Level Agreements.
