Thanks Grace. Regarding the box of links on the left, I suggest: * Add a link to email list archives * Divide the Documents link into two links: Current Drafts and Final Documents Everything else looks pretty good to me. Chuck From: cwg-dt-stewardship-bounces@icann.org [mailto:cwg-dt-stewardship-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Grace Abuhamad Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2014 3:23 PM To: Marika Konings; CWG-DT-Stewardship@icann.org Subject: [CWG-DT-Stewardship] Updated Wiki for your review Hi all, I have updated the Wiki in preparation for the formation of the CWG: https://community.icann.org/x/37fhAg. If you have time, please review and send me any feedback, comments, etc. You may also share this with anyone who is interested in joining the CWG and/or would like to go through the work of the Drafting Team. Best, Grace From: Marika Konings <marika.konings@icann.org<mailto:marika.konings@icann.org>> Date: Thursday, September 4, 2014 3:35 PM To: "CWG-DT-Stewardship@icann.org<mailto:CWG-DT-Stewardship@icann.org>" <CWG-DT-Stewardship@icann.org<mailto:CWG-DT-Stewardship@icann.org>> Subject: [CWG-DT-Stewardship] Update from the GNSO and draft call for observers for your review Dear All, For your information, the GNSO Council adopted the CWG charter during its meeting today (see resolution below). The GNSO has requested that GNSO Stakeholder Groups provide the names of members for the CWG by 15 September at the latest and has recommended that the chairs of the DT serve as the interim chairs of the CWG until the CWG has had the opportunity to select its leadership. In order to prepare for the call for observers, we've prepared the attached draft call that we would suggest is posted and circulated once most of the chartering organisations have appointed their members (we understand that the SSAC has already adopted the charter and the ALAC vote is finishing tomorrow). If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to share. As your respective organisations identify their members for the CWG, please provide the information to Grace so that they can be added to the mailing list. We hope it will be possible to schedule a first meeting of the CWG in early October so the group can discuss whether or not it would like to meet in Los Angeles, and if so, what the agenda should be and what materials should be prepared, if any. As you'll have noted from the announcement that Grace just shared, the ICG has requested that all formal responses are expected to be submitted by 31 December 2014. We hope this is helpful. Best regards, Marika ==================== Adoption of a Charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions Made by: Avri Doria Seconded by: Amr Elsadr Whereas, 1. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has requested that ICANN "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. 2. On June 6 2014, ICANN proposed the creation of an IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) "responsible for preparing a transition proposal reflecting the differing needs of the various affected parties of the IANA functions." 3. It was determined that the transition proposal should be developed within the directly affected communities (i.e. the IETF for development of standards for Internet Protocol Parameters; the NRO, the ASO, and the RIRs for functions related the management and distribution of numbering resources; and the GNSO and ccNSO for functions related to the Domain Name System). These efforts would inform the work of the ICG, whose responsibility would be to fashion an overall integrated transition proposal from these autonomously developed components. 4. Following distribution of an invitation to participate, a drafting team (DT) was formed with participants from the ccNSO, GNSO, SSAC and ALAC to develop a charter for a Cross Community Working Group to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions. 5. The DT delivered the proposed charter for consideration to the ccNSO, GNSO, SSACC and ALAC (see [include link to proposed charter]). Resolved, 1. The GNSO Council approves the Charter [include link] and appoints Jonathan Robinson as the GNSO Council liaison and member to the CWG. 2. Each GNSO Stakeholder Group will identify one member for the CWG by 15 September taking into account the charter requirement that best efforts should be made to ensure that members: * Have sufficient expertise to participate in the applicable subject matter; * Commit to actively participate in the activities of the CWG on an ongoing and long-term basis; and * Where appropriate, solicit and communicate the views and concerns of individuals in the organization that appoints them. 3. The GNSO will collaborate with the other SOs and ACs to issue a call for observers to join the CWG, each in accordance with its own rules. 4. Until the CWG selects its co-chairs for the CWG, the GNSO Council recommends that the co-chairs of the Drafting Team shall serve as the interim co-chairs of the CWG.
