<p>The Board is deeply engaged in reviewing the CCWG-Accountability proposal and has actively participated in the process. Consistent with our commitment to transparency, we would like to share with the Community the steps in our review process.</p>
<p>Last week, the <abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">
ICANN</abbr> Board submitted <a href="http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15/msg00006.html" target="_blank">
a preliminary set of comments</a> to the CCWG-Accountability Public Comment forum. The Board remains committed to engaging and working with the CCWG on solutions to address concerns raised in its preliminary set of comments.</p>
<p>A subset of <abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">
ICANN</abbr> Board Members and Staff Members have been meeting in Washington, DC on Tuesday and Wednesday this week to further consider the CCWG proposal and commence a review of an impact analysis from
<abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">ICANN</abbr>'s external counsel. As part of this meeting, the group held a call together with the CCWG Chairs. For full transparency and to clarify the basis for the review points and comments,
<abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">ICANN</abbr> will share the impact analysis and publish it in the CCWG Public Comment forum. The Board welcomes feedback from the CCWG on the impact analysis as it finalizes its responses
to the CCWG proposal in the Public Comment forum.</p>
<p>Next week, consistent with the CCWG request, the Board will have an open teleconference with the CCWG to help inform the Board's development of its comments to be submitted into the Public Comment forum before the close of the comment period on 12 September.
Call details will be announced so that anyone in the community may participate.</p>
<p>Finally, in light of the importance of these discussions, we propose that the CCWG-Accountability hold a public meeting in Los Angeles in late September to continue the dialogue with the Board on the CCWG proposal.</p>
<p>As part of the <abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">
ICANN</abbr> community, we will continue to work constructively to help the CCWG finalize the proposal to achieve a successful
<abbr title="Internet Assigned Numbers Authority">IANA</abbr> Stewardship transition and an
<abbr title="Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers">ICANN</abbr> with enhanced accountability. We remain appreciative of the CCWG's valuable work.</p>
