[Jordan Carter]

Dear all,

Brief replies in line (and noting that the CCWG will be discussing this
this week):

The broad ICANN accountability framework our CCWG is developing is going to
have some kind of relationship with the narrow IANA accountability that the
CWG is developing for the Names community (and that the numbers and
protocols people have developed for their areas).

I am not sure if the CCWG can finalise their proposals before they know
what our Work Stream 1 (pre-transition) conclusions are - and before they
know what the ICANN Board will accept for implementation.

If they do try and finalise before our WS1 work is done, then they risk
having made wrong assumptions about our conclusions and recommendations and
so might, by accident, create problems for IANA accountability.

I think we might need to allow time in the process to make sure that these
work together well. That doesn't quite seem to be in the schedule yet.

The currently circulated schedule showing the work of the CCWG, CWG and ICG
is attached. It is - and is labelled - "best case". That's the most hopeful
outcome. I am just saying that rather than hopeful, we should have a "we
think we really can manage this schedule" version, which I called the
central case.

The schedule of work for the CWG/CCWG/ICG.

If we agree a realistic schedule we are confident we can meet, we will not
be working ourselves to exhaustion trying to meet an impossible deadline.

That sounds like a benefit to me!
