[Ws2-jurisdiction] Jurisdiction Questionnaire: RESPONSE REQUESTED

Let's not rewrite history here.

First, it was always the intention that ICANN would eventually be removed
from NTIA oversight through expiration of the IANA agreement.

Second, the removal of ICANN from NTIA oversight was not initiated by the
multistakeholder community, it was initiated by the NTIA.

Third, the plan for removal of ICANN from NTIA oversight did not originally
include the CCWG-Accountability.  The CCWG was only chartered after serious
concerns were raised by the community, including "instances" where the
community's ability to exercise oversight of ICANN were found wanting.

Fourth, both the CWG-Stewardship and the CCWG-Accountability went through
extensive review of current processes to determine where they needed to be
replaced or enhanced (hence, the title of this CCWG).
