Re: [Ext] Re: [cctldcommunity] Call for volunteers: ccNSO Study Group on the IANA role in Disaster Recovery
Dear Eberhard, Thank you. The call for volunteers refers to what is included in the Terms of Reference as adopted by Council in June. That being said, I am confident the Tech WG leadership is welcome to help advance the work by the Study Group.

*Call for volunteers: ccNSO Study Group on the IANA role in Disaster Recovery*
The ccNSO Council is seeking volunteers to serve on the ccNSO Study Group on the IANA role in Disaster Recovery. The Study Group is expected to begin work around ICANN84.
*Purpose of the Study Group*
The ccNSO Council has established a Study Group to provide the ccTLD community and the Council with a comprehensive overview of the issues related to IANA’s role, if any, in the disaster recovery of ccTLDs. The purpose of the Study Group is to assess these issues and, if appropriate, recommend whether new policies, interpretations, or practices should be considered as next steps.

*Who Can Volunteer?*
Membership of the Study Group is open to representatives of all ccTLD managers (whether or not they are ccNSO members). At least one member must be a ccNSO Councillor, and all appointments are made by the ccNSO Council. ccTLD regional organizations may nominate a liaison, and the Chair may invite other ICANN SOs/ACs, TLD-ops leadership, IANA staff, other ICANN staff, or external experts to participate. All members, liaisons, participants, and experts take part on equal footing in deliberations, unless the Chair decides otherwise. Observers from the broader community may attend designated open meetings but do not actively participate.
*Scope of Work*
* *
Includes:
* IANA’s Role → Explore whether requirements should define IANA’s role in ccTLD disaster recovery. * Private Arrangements → Clarify what emergency agreements between ccTLDs and IANA are possible. * Guidance & Transparency → Develop practices to guide IANA and ccTLDs, ensuring clarity and openness. * Recommendations → Advise the ccNSO Council if new practices are needed.
