ICANN News Alert -- ICANN Announces Incorporation of Public Technical Identifiers (PTI)
by ICANN At-Large Staff Aug. 12, 2016

Aug. 12, 2016

[ICANN]<http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2016-08-11-en ________________________________ ICANN Announces Incorporation of Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) 11 August 2016 ICANN today announced that the incorporation documents for the "Post-Transition IANA" organization have been filed and received by the California Secretary of State under the name Public Technical Identifiers (which will now be referred to as PTI). With this filing and receipt, PTI is now formed as a nonprofit public benefit corporation and controlled affiliate of ICANN. The PTI Incorporation Documents were drafted to reflect the recommendations of the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) proposal, as provided to the ICANN Board and transmitted to NTIA on 10 March 2016. PTI was formed to perform the naming-related IANA functions under contract with ICANN. The PTI Articles were posted for public comment on 1 July 2016. At its meeting on 9 August 2016, the ICANN Board approved the PTI Articles and directed ICANN staff to move forward with the incorporation of PTI. Although PTI now exists as a legal entity, it is not yet performing any work. PTI will not perform any services under the IANA Functions Contract with NTIA. PTI will only start performing the IANA functions upon the successful completion of the transition. At that point, PTI will perform the IANA functions pursuant to an IANA Naming Functions Contract with ICANN (released for public comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/iana-naming-function-agreement-2016-0…> from 10 August - 9 September 2016) and the subcontracts with ICANN for the performance of the numbering and protocol parameter services. For purposes of coherence of the IANA functions and overall operational logistics, the ICG proposal requires that the performance of the IANA numbering and protocol parameter functions be subcontracted to PTI. These subcontracting agreements are drafted and will be executed between PTI and ICANN so that they are in effect upon transition. The proposed Articles of Incorporation are the first of the various governance documents that will be necessary for PTI to be put into operation. In the coming weeks, ICANN will also be posting the final versions of the PTI Bylaws, Conflict of Interest Policy, Board Code of Conduct, and Expected Standards of Behavior. Each of these documents has already been subject to public comment, and will be submitted for ICANN and PTI Board approvals (where appropriate) before the transition. All efforts surrounding the Incorporation of PTI are designed to meet one of key the recommendations in the ICG proposal: the formation of a new legal entity to perform the three IANA functions. All implementation-planning efforts can be tracked at https://www.icann.org/stewardship-implementation.

ICANN News Alert -- Call for Public Comment on IANA IPR Agreements
by ICANN At-Large Staff Aug. 12, 2016

Aug. 12, 2016

[ICANN]<http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2016-08-11-en ________________________________ Call for Public Comment on IANA IPR Agreements 11 August 2016 Today, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Trust, the operational communities, and ICANN announced a call for public comment, soliciting feedback on draft agreements designed to address a requirement from the Proposal to Transition the Stewardship of the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) Functions from the U.S. Commerce Department's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to the Global Multistakeholder Community<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/iana-stewardship-transition-pro…> [PDF, 2.3 MB]. The Proposal required that the domain names that ICANN uses to perform the IANA functions and the IANA trademarks (the "IANA IPR") be transferred to an entity independent of the IANA Functions Operator, and held for the benefit of the entire community. This call for public comment<https://www.ianacg.org/call-for-public-comment-on-iana-ipr-agreements/> seeks community input on three agreements concerning the IANA IPR developed by the community to meet this requirement from the Proposal: * IANA IPR Assignment Agreement * IANA IPR License Agreement (model) * IANA IPR Community Agreement The ICG web site is being used as a neutral site to host this call for public comment, but the agreements are not a product of the ICG. After public comment inputs are reviewed and considered, the agreements will be finalized. The agreements are expected to be signed upon successful completion of the IANA Stewardship Transition. ICANN is a party to some of the agreements posted for comment: * The IANA IPR Assignment Agreement, through which ICANN will transfer the IANA IPR to the IETF Trust * Three IANA IPR License Agreements, through which the IETF Trust will license back to ICANN the rights to use that IANA IPR in the performance of the IANA functions. There will be three IANA IPR License Agreements, so that there is one representing each portion of the IANA functions (naming, numbering and protocol parameters). The Community Agreement sets out how the naming, numbering and protocol parameters communities will work together with the IETF Trust. Comments are due by 12 September 2016 at 23:59 UTC. Comments should be submitted via email to IANAIPRpubliccomment(a)ianacg.org<mailto:IANAIPRpubliccomment@ianacg.org>. Commenters should clearly reference to which of the agreement(s) their comments apply. For more detailed information, please visit https://www.ianacg.org/call-for-public-comment-on-iana-ipr-agreements/.

ICANN News Alert -- Inaugural Asia Pacific Internet Governance Academy Grooms Young Leaders
by ICANN At-Large Staff Aug. 8, 2016

Aug. 8, 2016

[ICANN]<http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/resources/press-material/release-2016-08-08-en ________________________________ Inaugural Asia Pacific Internet Governance Academy Grooms Young Leaders ICANN and KISA put the spotlight on next generation of the Asia Pacific Internet community 8 August 2016 Seoul, South Korea… 62 youths from 14 Asia Pacific (APAC) economies are being groomed as future leaders as they attend the inaugural Asia Pacific Internet Governance Academy. Held at Yonsei University in Seoul, the five-day workshop on Internet governance and Internet-related topics was officially launched by the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) today. The Academy aims to improve participants' understanding of how the Internet works, the "bottom-up consensus building" model of Internet governance, which has helped shape the Internet as we know it today, and how they can take part in shaping the evolution of the Internet for the next generation. "The Internet is not controlled by any single person, organization, or government. For the Internet to develop and cater to the needs of our region – of which half of the world's Internet users reside – we need to get involved in the various platforms that discuss, develop and evolve the Internet," said Jia-Rong Low, Vice President and Managing Director of ICANN's Asia Pacific Hub. "I would like to thank KISA and Korea for their partnership and leadership during the development and launch of this program. The next billion Internet users will likely come from our region, and today's students are the leaders of tomorrow. We hope that after this academy, they can participate in ICANN, and other relevant platforms, to shape the future of the Internet," Low added. The Academy will introduce participants to various Internet governance platforms, such as the Asia Pacific Regional Internet Governance Forum (APrIGF), as well as organizations involved in Internet governance work. Speakers from these organizations, such as the Korea Internet Governance Alliance (KIGA), Asia Pacific Network Information Center (APNIC) and Internet Society (ISOC), will share their experiences and work. Yoonhong Cho, Vice President of KISA added, "I am very delighted to see the KISA-ICANN joint project on capacity building for the Asia Pacific region bear such fruitful results, in the form of APIGA. In partnering with ICANN and with the strong support and significant contribution from our 11 sponsor organizations, I believe that the inaugural Asia Pacific event will be fully utilized as an incubating platform for the next generation of global leaders for the future Internet." ICANN and KISA received more than 120 applications from all over the APAC region. Successful applicants are required to attend 25 hours of online learning prior to the five-day workshop in Seoul. After the Academy, they will be invited to participate in regional and global Internet governance events, such as the 57th ICANN public meeting, which is being held in Hyderabad, India, from 3-9 November 2016. The academy is also an extension of ICANN's youth engagement program, which aims to reach out to the next generation and groom future leaders. Another program is NextGen@ICANN, which is held on the sidelines of ICANN Public Meetings. # # # For more information on APIGA, please visit here<https://community.icann.org/display/GSEAPAC/Asia+Pacific+Internet+Governanc…>.
