I am pleased to inform you that the CSC has concluded that PTI’s overall performance over November 2019 was “Excellent” - PTI met 100% of the service level agreements over the month of November 2019. 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" title="https://www.iana.org/performance/csc-reports">https://www.iana.org/performance/csc-reports</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>I’m also very pleased to provide you an update on the two outstanding SLA changes:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>1. In accordance with the SLA change procedure: the CSC was informed that PTI has completed implementation of the new SLA: IDN Tables processing times, and is now recording data accordingly. The performance against this new SLA will be presented in the report over December 2019 and presented to us at our (CSC) January meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>2. With respect to the second SLA listed in the CSC Findings report – the ccTLD Creation/Transfer – Validation and Reviews: SLA amendments - the CSC was informed that based on public comment there is no need to adjust the proposed SLA.
