-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Leon, Indeed the question is or rather the questions are: Where does the statutory or other legal authority currently lie for the United States' control over the root, and in particularly over ccTLD managers? Once the US Government abandons its current role (whatever it is), what statutory or other legal authority will ICANN have over the root, and in particular over ccTLD managers? greetings, el On 2015-03-24 10:25 , León Felipe Sánchez Ambía wrote: [...]
Eberhard, while this might not exhaustively address the question you raised, we will formulate an ex-profeso question to the external legal advisors to have an answer on their side.
Just to double check whether my understanding is accurate I would like you to confirme whether the right question to ask is: Which are the grounds for ICANN to claim control over the root?
Is that correct?
Best regards,
