Deadlines for two key public comment periods fast approaching
The deadlines for the public comment periods for the two proposals that will
soon be forwarded to the National Telecommunications and Information
Administration (NTIA <http://www.ntia.doc.gov/> ) are fast approaching, with
just over one week left for stakeholders to submit their views on the
contents of the proposals:
1. The Consolidated IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal
<https://www.ianacg.org/calls-for-input/combined-proposal-public-comment-per
iod/>  by the ICG
2. The 2nd Draft Proposal on Work Stream 1 Recommendations
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-2015-08-03-en>
of the CCWG-Accountability
In addition, to enable the community the necessary time to prepare for the
transition of stewardship after the proposals have been accepted by the
community and NTIA, NTIA has announced
<http://www.ntia.doc.gov/blog/2015/update-iana-transition>  that it will
extend the IANA Functions Contract with ICANN for one year, ending 30
September 2016.

CCWG-Accountability
The public comment period
<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-2015-08-03-en>
for the 2nd Draft Proposal on Work Stream 1 Recommendations
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-draft-2-proposal-work-stre
am-1-recs-03aug15-en.pdf>  by the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing
ICANN Accountability (CCWG-Accountability
<https://community.icann.org/display/acctcrosscomm/CCWG+on+Enhancing+ICANN+A
ccountability> ) closes on 12 September 2015. The proposal is now available
in all 6 United Nations languages plus Portuguese (see links below). To
date, nine public comments
<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15/>  have
been received. One of the submissions, from theICANN Board
<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15/msg00006.
html> , notes that the Board will develop its own set of comprehensive
comments and suggestions on the proposal based on:
* Briefings sought from ICANN's external counsel's inputs on the proposal.
The briefing 
<http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15/pdf5bBqNG
P8Fj.pdf> , by Jones Day, has been submitted to the public comment mailing
list
* Analysis by independent third-party experts on governance on the
governance impacts of the proposal, including considerations of how the
proposal may impact the balance of the stakeholders in the multistakeholder
model within ICANN today
A subset of ICANN Board members met with ICANN staff members during the week
of 24 August to discuss the CCWG-Accountability proposal. Following this,
two teleconferences were organized for the CCWG-Accountability and the ICANN
Board to discuss the proposal in more detail. The first teleconference
<https://community.icann.org/x/dYVYAw>  will be held on 31 August, where the
CCWG-Accountability will brief the Board on the 2nd draft proposal. The
second teleconference
<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56133316> , to be
held 2 September, will be an opportunity for the Board to share its feedback
on the proposal. Observers can listen in to the teleconference via Adobe
Connect <https://icann.adobeconnect.com/dialogue/> .
The Board will submit additional comments based on the above inputs to the
public comment forum before the comment period ends. Meanwhile, the
CCWG-Accountability's legal counsel, Sidley Austin and Adler & Colvin, are
conducting a preliminary review of the Jones Day briefing, and hope to
submit the preliminary review to the CCWG-Accountability on 1 September.
How to submit a public comment before the 12 September deadline
1. Consider the CCWG-Accountability's three questions when developing your
submissions
> * Do you agree that the CCWG-Accountability proposal enhances ICANN's
> accountability?
> * Are there elements of this proposal that would prevent you from approving it
> transmission to Chartering Organizations?
> * Does this proposal meet the requirements set forward by the CWG-Stewardship?
2. Send an email to comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15@icann.org
<mailto:comments-ccwg-accountability-03aug15@icann.org>
3. When you receive an automatically generated email asking you to confirm
your submission, please follow the instructions in the email to ensure your
comments are submitted to the archive of public comments

Extension of IANA Functions Contract
On 17 August, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration
(NTIA <http://www.ntia.doc.gov/> ) announced
<http://www.ntia.doc.gov/blog/2015/update-iana-transition>  that it had
informed the U.S. Congress that it planned to extend the IANA Functions
Contract with ICANN for one year until September 30, 2016. In the
announcement, NTIA explains that:
> "Beyond 2016, we have options to extend the contract for up to three
> additional years if needed. This one-year extension will provide the community
> with the time it needs to finish its work."
IANA-related intellectual property rights
An area of ongoing discussion related to the ICG's Consolidated IANA
Stewardship Proposal has to do with the future of where the IANA-related
trademarks and domain names will be held – referred to in the discussions as
the IANA IPR. Of the three operational community proposals, only the
numbering resources community, in its proposal
<http://www.nro.net/crisp-final-proposal>  developed by the Consolidated RIR
IANA Stewardship Proposal Team (CRISP Team), documented a concrete
suggestion for keeping the holder of IANA's IPR separate from the operator
of IANA functions. The CRISP Team proposal states:
> "It is the preference of the Internet Number Community that the IANA trademark
> and theIANA.ORG domain name be transferred to an entity independent of the
> IANA Numbering Services Operator, in order to ensure that these assets are
> used in a non-discriminatory manner for the benefit of the entire community.
> From the Internet Number Community's perspective, the IETFTrust would be an
> acceptable candidate for this role."
The protocol parameters community, via the IANAPLAN working group, found
this an acceptable way forward and the IETF Trust confirmed it was willing
to take on the task, if requested. The names community proposal, developed
by the Cross Community Working Group Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition
Proposal on Naming Related Functions (CWG-Stewardship
<https://community.icann.org/display/gnsocwgdtstwrdshp/CWG+to+Develop+an+IAN
A+Stewardship+Transition+Proposal+on+Naming+Related+Functions> ), did not
contain any specific proposal about how to handle the IPR. On 15 August, the
ICANN Board announced
<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-08-15-en>  that ICANN is:
> "…Prepared to transfer full ownership of the IANA-related trademarks to a
> neutral third party mutually agreed among the operational communities with the
> understanding that ICANN, as the current IANA Functions Operator, will be
> granted license to those trademarks and ICANN will maintain operational
> control of the IANA.ORG domain for as long as ICANN remains the IANAFunctions
> Operator."
On their 20 August call, the CWG-Stewardship agreed that the IANA IPR can be
held a by neutral third party. The CWG-Stewardship sees its position on the
IANA IPR as consistent with the other two proposals. Requirements for the
neutral third party can be coordinated with the other communities in
