Dear all,

A public comment proceeding seeks community input on the Draft PTI Articles of Incorporation developed to reflect the recommendations contained in the proposals by the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) as provided to the ICANN Board and transmitted to NTIA on 10 March 2016.

In order to incorporate an affiliate, which is a necessary step in ICANN's planning efforts for the implementation of the ICG Proposal, a first step is to file articles of incorporation. There are legal requirements for the content of articles of incorporation.

Keeping these requirements in mind, the proposed draft of the PTI Articles of Incorporation was developed to meet the recommendations of the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) proposal that a new legal entity be formed to perform the three IANA functions.

Any interested party may review and provide feedback on the draft PTI Articles during the public comment period. The comments will be analyzed against the legal requirements and incorporated for the ICANN Board consideration and approval of ICANN proceeding with the incorporation of PTI.

Comments are due by 31 Jul 2016 23:59 UTC

Best regards,
