[CCWG-ACCT] IANA Contract Extended

[Thomas Rickert]

All,
please note the suggested time-line is based on our current work plan with a bit of wiggle-room for implementation in 2016. Hence, our work remains unaffected by this announcement.

Best
Thomas

As for implementation post-Dublin, absent a preliminary signal from NTIA along the lines of ‘right track’ – and I’m not certain how they could do that, given the politics and procedures – is there risk of pursuing a recommended track or tracks and having it/them “rejected” or altered down the road?  Apologies if I have missed a previous discussion on implementation.
