+1 as well, I think the implementation timeline is what is mostly missing in the various community timelines. That of ccwg may be most important since the names community would largely rely on it. Overall, I think the ccwg and the 3 operational communities are doing well within September scope as it concerns proposal development and the implementation phase is what may go beyond September.

The coordination among the various communities(including numbers and protocol) to develop a wholesome implementation timeline will be helpful indeed!

I think Paul’s assessment is accurate.

 

We, the community, will need to develop and recommend a consolidated timeline addressing all of the work-streams and dependencies (CWG, CCWG, ICG, ICANN Board, NTIA) to include the implementation phase described by Secretary Strickling.

 

To begin such an effort, I’d like to suggest a coordination meeting of the Co-Chairs of the CWG, CCWG and ICG, plus the ICANN Board liaisons from all 3 groups.  Perhaps we should also request clarification from NTIA regarding the time needed for their review and approval process, based on what they’ve seen so far from the community.

 

Regards,

Keith

I am quite sure Roelof that Strickling means exactly what you said.  I think he would be surprised that you would read it the other way since I think he would see the “ending of the contract” as the last day on which it is in effect – which would either be Sept 30 or the date to which the contract is extended.

 

I am also pretty sure that what they are looking for is a realistic estimate so that they only have to do one single extension – not 3 months now and then 3 more and ….  In other words he is asking “how long do you REALLY need?”   I will note as well the repeat of the requirement for “implementation” – so the question is not “will we approve the changes in Dublin?” which is, to my mind at least, a relatively realistic expectation but rather “how long after the changes are approved in Dublin will it take for them to be implemented?” – that is the Bylaws changed; and IRP set up; and whatever structrures the CCWG and the CWG call for organized and the functions transferred etc.  That seems to me like a much harder and more indefinite question to answer

What surprises me, is that the letter leaves room for (mis)interpretation on the essential content:

 

“We have never viewed 30 September as a deadline, but have stated from the beginning of this process that the transition planning should proceed to whatever schedule the community sets” is clear and in line with what Mr. Strickling has publicly stated numerous times. It suggests implicitely that the contract will be extended if necessary to fit “whatever schedule the community sets”.

 

However, the bit “..please bear in mind that the United States Government will need sufficient time to evaluate the proposal and that all work items identified … will need to be implemented prior to the ending of the contract.” is not so clear.

We probably all assume that “the ending of the contract” refers to either 30 September 2015 or the end date of an (or the last of multiple) extension(s). 

 

That is probably a safe assumption, but I fail to understand why Mr. Strickling did not insert a sentence to make that absolutely clear to anyone. Something like: “…prior to 30 September or the date to which the NTIA will extend the present contract to fit the schedule set by the community”.

 

Best,

 

Roelof

Dear Colleagues,

FYI attached is the feedback we have received from Jan Aart Scholte, our independent Advisor. Jan raises some very useful points for our further deliberations.

I would suggest we count this as "public comment input #1" and add this to our upcoming public comment analysis tool.


Best
Mathieu

Attached the promised more substantive comments for the CCWG on the draft proposal of 1 May 2015. Really impressive that things have got this far already, though as ever there can be suggestions for going further.
