April 30, 2015

Dear APRALO colleagues, As you all know, we have the ALSs info wiki space, which we have updated last year. But during this year several ALSs has changed the info and this is the role of ALS to provide the relevant update in the wiki space. The direct link for our ALSs list is here - https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+ALSes I would highly appreciate if every ALS will go to the space and see the info provided and update if needed. We have also new ALSs joined during previous several months (ISOC Delhi, ISOC Palestine, ISOC Korea and ISOC TRV). Please, provide the brief info about your organization and the logo to be posted in the wiki. If you have problems going to the space and updating the relevant info, please, send the information to me and I will do the relevant updates. Thanks a lot for your cooperation. Sincerely SiranushAPRALO Chair

REMINDER: WEBINAR: CWG-Stewardship Briefing on 2nd Draft Proposal for Public Comment
by ICANN At-Large Staff April 23, 2015

April 23, 2015

Webinar Details & How to Attend The webinars will be run in an Adobe Connect room<https://icann.adobeconnect.com/cwg-iana/>. If you are interested in attending the webinar and would like to receive dial-in details, please send an email to brenda.brewer(a)icann.org<mailto:brenda.brewer@icann.org> and indicate which time you would like to attend the webinar. Please note that the webinar will be conducted in English and will be recorded and transcribed. Subsequently the transcripts will be translated in the 5 UN languages and posted on the CWG-Stewardship Wiki here<https://community.icann.org/x/ryYnAw>. Please share widely. For the original post, please see: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-04-16-en WEBINAR: Cross Community Working Group (CWG) On IANA Naming Related Functions: Briefing on 2nd Draft Proposal for Public Comment Why this matters NTIA Stewardship Transition Following the request of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), an agency of the U.S Department of Commerce, for ICANN to "convene a multistakeholder process to develop a plan to transition the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the IANA Functions and related root zone management, a Cross Community Working Group (CWG-Stewardship) was formed with the purpose of developing a consolidated transition proposal for the elements of the IANA Functions relating to domain names. The CWG-Stewardship held briefing webinars on the first draft proposal on 3-4 December 2014, and subsequently received nearly 60 public comments. Following the close of the public comment period, the CWG-Stewardship reviewed the comments and continued to work at an intense pace to prepare its transition proposal, through more than 30 teleconferences, a working session at ICANN 52 in Singapore in February, a face-to-face meeting in Istanbul in March and, most recently, during a two-day meeting block with over 12 hours of conferences to converge on the 2nd draft proposal. With the aim to submit its final proposal to the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) by the close of ICANN 53 in June, the CWG-Stewardship highlights the importance of broader community input of their draft, for which the group has received independent legal counsel for structural considerations and external expertise to bolster operational sections. The CWG-Stewardship will hold two identical webinars at different times to facilitate participation across time zones. The webinars will take place on: · 24 April from 06:00 – 07:30 UTC (time zone converter here<http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=CWG-Stewardship+We…>) · 24 April from 14:00 – 15:30 UTC (time zone converter here<http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=CWG-Stewardship+We…>) ________________________________ Webinar Details & How to Attend The webinars will be run in an Adobe Connect room<https://icann.adobeconnect.com/cwg-iana/>.
