Danny My email was to inform you that it is not ONLY a NA concern, and that the rest of the regions are working on cc issues as well. This was informational and there is no reason to threaten the existence of the NARALO. The NA region is part of the global AtLarge, and should be interested in working together with the rest of the world, and not only in isolation. -----Original Message----- From: Danny Younger [mailto:dannyyounger@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2007 9:42 AM To: jam@jacquelinemorris.com; 'NA Discuss' Subject: RE: [NA-Discuss] MOU - ICANN Obligations: Redelegation Hi Jacqueline, Sorry to disagree, but the NeuStar contract with the USG is scheduled to expire by the end of October (posing a potential redelegation issue), and frankly we don't have the luxury of waiting for the ALAC and the CCNSO to come to grips with the global aspects of the problem. This is a timely regional issue for us that we should be at liberty to handle by way of positing an ICANN obligation in the MOU (which is within our rights to request). The RALOs exist to deal with regional concerns. Let us handle this matter in our own fashion or let's just scrap the RALO concept. regards, Danny --- "Jacqueline A.

Hi Danny This is a concern in other places, and ALAC has set up several meetings with ccNSO in San Juan to discuss how we can work together on issues such as this. I don't think that it belongs in the NARALO MoU, but rather is a global issue that ALL regions should work on together. Jacqueline

I remain troubled by the total lack of transparency in the ccTLD redelegation process. Has anyone ever seen a detailed redelegation request posted for consideration prior to action being taken by the Board?

The .us situation is particularly bad. On the last go-around ICANN bypassed the normal IANA processes to declare an "emergency redelegation" -- see

http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-19nov01.htm

I certainly don't want the relevant Internet community being kept in the dark should the delegation of the .us namespace become an issue.

I would ask that the NARALO MOU stipulate that ICANN has the obligation to inform the NARALO upon the receipt of any relevant ccTLD redelegation request (.us or .ca) so that community input may be provided (as per RFC 1591: "it is also appropriate for interested parties to have some voice in selecting the designated manager.")
