Dear Chairs,
Please see below a note from the Jonathan Robinson and Lise Fuhr, Co-Chairs of the CWG-Stewardship. -- Dear SO/AC chairs and co-chairs,
As part of the transition implementation work, representatives from the names community, the numbers community, the protocol parameters community, the IETF Trust, and ICANN have drafted a set of agreements to effectuate the transfer of the IANA IPR from ICANN to the IETF Trust and to govern the relationships amongst the parties with respect to the IPR after the transfer.
These agreements are:
- IANA IPR Assignment Agreement: This agreement transfers the IPR from ICANN to the IETF Trust.
- 3 IANA IPR License Agreements (one each for the names, numbers, and protocol parameters IANA services.): These agreements allows for the IANA functions operator to use the IPR.
- IANA - IPR Community Agreement: This agreement explains the rights and obligations of the IETF Trust and each operational community as regards the IPR.
After a public comment period last month, the agreements have been finalized and are ready to be executed.
One of the decisions that the CWG had to make as part of the work was to identify who would be the signatory of the Community Agreement on behalf of the Naming Community. The decision made by the group, with input from CWG external counsel, was to ask ICANN to play that role. An instruction letter has been assembled for that purpose.
The Instruction Letter says: "This letter confirms the request of the Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions (âCWGâ) for the benefit of those of its listed chartering organizations the Country Code NNames Supporting Organization (âccNSOâ), the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (âSSACâ), the Generic Names Supporting Organization (âGNSOâ), the At Large Advisory Committee (âALACâ) and the Governmental Advisory Committee (âGACâ) that have affirmed or hereafter affirm in writinng that they agree to be included herein (each a âConsenting SO/ACâ and collectively, the âNames Communityâ) that ICANN serve as the signatory for the Names Community under the Community Agreement."
This makes reference to the COs affirming in writing that they agree to be included in the instruction letter as a consenting SO/AC.
As ICANN might formally reach out to us to obtain confirmation that one or more COs have agreed to be a consenting SO/AC, we hereby kindly ask that you provide such a written confirmation as a matter of urgency by replying to this email, preferably on or before September 30th, 2016, so that the signing of the agreement may proceed as planned.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Lise Fuhr & Jonathan Robinson, CWG co-chairs.

Hi Alan, My views are that just because they are demanding various ACs and SOs to provide a statement does not mean we should. I would prefer the ACs bide their time and wait a bit more before issuing commentary. Let things playout for a bit. The IANA transition is very political and will get turbulent in days to come as it already has been. If the ACs were to release a statement, it should merely state or reiterate the: 1)values based positions of the ACs such as high level vision, mission etc; 2)urge stakeholders to consider the necessity of remaining "calm"; 3)regardless of transition or shocks that coordination group should not deviate from core values. The world is facing major shocks and upheaval with increasing terrorist attacks that will cause massive shifts in Privacy laws. We already see Clinton expressing that she will use the internet to hunt down terrorists etc. Australia's Attorney General in his recent media release is revising privacy law that impacts deanonymity of data etc and there will be impacts on Whois etc. If anything, ALAC should bide its time.

Alan From: Trang Nguyen <trang.nguyen@icann.org<mailto:trang.nguyen@icann.org> > Subject: Note from CWG-Stewardship Chairs to the Chairs of the CWG-Stewardship Chartering Organizations Regarding IANA Intellectual Property Right Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:37:38 +0000 Dear Chairs, Please see below a note from the Jonathan Robinson and Lise Fuhr, Co-Chairs of the CWG-Stewardship. -- Dear SO/AC chairs and co-chairs, As part of the transition implementation work, representatives from the names community, the numbers community, the protocol parameters community, the IETF Trust, and ICANN have drafted a set of agreements to effectuate the transfer of the IANA IPR from ICANN to the IETF Trust and to govern the relationships amongst the parties with respect to the IPR after the transfer. These agreements are: - IANA IPR Assignment Agreement: This agreement transfers the IPR from ICANN to the IETF Trust. - 3 IANA IPR License Agreements (one each for the names, numbers, and protocol parameters IANA services.): These agreements allows for the IANA functions operator to use the IPR. - IANA - IPR Community Agreement: This agreement explains the rights and obligations of the IETF Trust and each operational community as regards the IPR. After a public comment period last month, the agreements have been finalized and are ready to be executed. One of the decisions that the CWG had to make as part of the work was to identify who would be the signatory of the Community Agreement on behalf of the Naming Community. The decision made by the group, with input from CWG external counsel, was to ask ICANN to play that role. An instruction letter has been assembled for that purpose. The Instruction Letter says: "This letter confirms the request of the Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions (“CWG†) for the benefit of those of its listed chartering organizations – the Country Code NNames Supporting Organization (“ccNSO†), the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (“SSAC†), the Generic Names Supporting Organization (“GNSO†), the At Large Advisory Committee (“ALAC†) and the Governmental Advisory Committee (“GAC†) – that have affirmed or hereafter affirm in writinng that they agree to be included herein (each a “Consenting SO/AC†and collectively, the “Names Community†) that ICANN serve as the signatory for the Names Community under the Community Agreement." This makes reference to the COs affirming in writing that they agree to be included in the instruction letter as a consenting SO/AC. As ICANN might formally reach out to us to obtain confirmation that one or more COs have agreed to be a consenting SO/AC, we hereby kindly ask that you provide such a written confirmation as a matter of urgency by replying to this email, preferably on or before September 30th, 2016, so that the signing of the agreement may proceed as planned. Thank you for your cooperation, Lise Fuhr & Jonathan Robinson, CWG co-chairs. _______________________________________________ ALAC mailing list ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org<mailto:ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org> https://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/alac At-Large Online: http://www.atlarge.icann.org<http://www.atlarge.icann.org/> ALAC Working Wiki: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Advisory+Committee+(ALA...) _______________________________________________ ALAC mailing list ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org<mailto:ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org> https://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/alac At-Large Online: http://www.atlarge.icann.org ALAC Working Wiki: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Advisory+Committee+(ALA...) _______________________________________________ ALAC mailing list ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org<mailto:ALAC@atlarge-lists.icann.org> https://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/alac At-Large Online: http://www.atlarge.icann.org ALAC Working Wiki: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Advisory+Committee+(ALA...)
