<DIV>Thanks Milton,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri'; COLOR: #000000">your
suggestion to break the work into the three IANA parameters categories should be
discussed with respect to the “communities of interest” who should deal with
these parameters. I guess these communities are to be created as “communities”
since they may be filled by parts of other existing structures. This could be a
task for the ICG.</DIV>

<P class=MsoPlainText>Draft charter for the IANA Stewardship Transition
Coordination Group<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>V 2.1 (July 16, 2014)<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>The IANA transition coordination group (ICG) has one
deliverable, a proposal to the U.S. Commerce Department National
Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) regarding the
transition of NTIA’s stewardship of the IANA functions to the Internet
community.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>The group’s mission is to coordinate the development of a
proposal among the communities affected by the IANA functions. The IANA
parameters fall into three categories: domain names, number resources, and other
protocol parameters. While there is some overlap among these categories, each
poses distinct organizational, operational and technical issues, and each tends
to have distinct communities of interest and expertise. For those reasons it is
best to have work on the three categories of IANA parameters proceed
autonomously in parallel and be based in the respective communities of
interest.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>The coordination group has four main tasks:<o:p></o:p></P>

</SPAN></SPAN>Liaison<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>Members of the ICG will ensure that the communities from
which they are drawn are working on their part of the transition plans. This
involves informing them of requirements and schedules, tracking progress, and
highlighting the results or remaining issues. The role of a coordination group
member during this phase is to provide status updates about the progress of his
or her community in developing their component, and to coordinate which
community will develop a transition proposal for each area of overlap (e.g.,
special-use registry)<o:p></o:p></P>

style='FONT: 7pt "Times New Roman"'>
</SPAN></SPAN>Assessment<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>When the group receives output from the independent groups
it will discuss and assess their workability, assess their compatibility and
interoperability with the proposals of the other groups, and verify their levels
of support in the respective communities. The ICG might at some point detect
problems with the component proposals. At that point the role of the ICG is to
communicate that back to the relevant communities so that they (the relevant
communities) can address the issues. In assessing consensus, the coordination
group will rely to some extent on its members to reflect to the rest of the
group the support levels within the member's own community, but the group is
also authorized to engage in independent assessments, such as public notice and
comment periods. <o:p></o:p></P>

style='FONT: 7pt "Times New Roman"'>
</SPAN></SPAN>Assembling and submitting a complete proposal<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>The assembly effort involves taking the proposals for the
different components and verifying that they fulfil the intended scope, meet the
intended criteria, that there are no missing parts, and that the whole fits
together. The ICG will then develop a draft final proposal that achieves
consensus within the ICG itself. The ICG will then put this proposal up for
public comment involving a reasonable period of time for reviewing the draft
proposal, analyzing and preparing supportive or critical comments. The ICG will
then review these comments and determine whether modifications are required. If
not, and the coordination group agrees, the proposal will be submitted to NTIA.
If changes are required to fix problems or achieve broader support, the ICG is
authorized to make minor amendments in consultation with the affected
communities of interest. If, in the ICG’s opinion, broad public support for the
proposal as articulated by the NTIA is not present, the parts of the proposal
that are not supported return to the liaison phase. <o:p></o:p></P>

</SPAN></SPAN>Information sharing<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoPlainText>The ICG should serve as a central clearinghouse for public
information about the IANA stewardship transition process. Its secretariat
should maintain an independent website, under its own domain, where status
updates, meetings and notices are announced, proposals are stored, the ICG
members are listed, etc. <o:p></o:p></P>
