The RZERC will consider issues raised to the RZERC to identify any potential security, stability or resiliency risks to the architecture and operation of the root zone. The RZERC will coordinate with the committee's respective organizations and communities, and if appropriate, external experts, to ensure that relevant bodies were involved in decision-making and ensure that relevant expertise was available. The RZERC will coordinate a public consultation process for operational and architectural changes that impose potential risk to the security, stability, or resiliency of the root system (as identified by one or more committee members and agreed by a simple majority of members). This public consultation process regarding the proposed changes, including the identified risks, will be organized via the ICANN public comment forum. The RZERC will act as a consultation body for ICANN during the issuance and consideration of an RFP for the Root Zone Maintainer, if needed. The RZERC will coordinate with the Customer Standing Committee (CSC) as needed. In accordance with the adopted charter of the RZERC (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/revised-rzerc-charter-08aug16-e…<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> , the ccNSO shall select 1 member to the committee. The committee membership is the following: - The Chair of the Security and Stability Advisory Committee, or Chair’s delegate   - The Chair of the Root Server System Advisory Committee, or Chair’s delegate   - The Chair of the Address Supporting Organization, or Chair’s delegate   - The Chair of the Internet Engineering Task Force, or Chair’s delegate   - One representative selected by the Registries Stakeholder Group of the Generic Names Supporting Organization   - One representative selected by the Country Code Names Supporting Organization   - One representative of the organization identified to serve as the Root Zone Maintainer   - One ICANN Board member   - One senior IANA Function Operator administrator or their delegate   More background information on RZERC can be found at: https://www.icann.org/en/stewardship-implementation/formation-of-a-root-zon…<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_stewa…> On behalf of the ccNSO Secretariat, Kind regards, Joke Braeken ccNSO Policy Advisor joke.braeken(a)icann.org<mailto:joke.braeken@icann.org> Follow @ccNSO on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ccNSO[twitter.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__twitter.com_ccNSO&d=DQ…> Follow the ccNSO on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ccnso/[facebook.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.facebook.com_ccnso…> http://ccnso.icann.org[ccnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ccnso.icann.org&d=DQMGa…>
