FW: IANA Stewardship Transition Draft Proposal - Transfer of Naming Functions to PTI
by Jonathan Robinson May 12, 2015

All. FYI. Jonathan. From: Jonathan Robinson [mailto:jrobinson@afilias.info] Sent: 12 May 2015 12:47 To: Samantha Eisner (Samantha.Eisner(a)icann.org) Cc: Lise Fuhr (lise.fuhr(a)difo.dk) Grace Abuhamad (grace.abuhamad(a)icann.org) 'Theresa Swinehart' Subject: IANA Stewardship Transition Draft Proposal - Transfer of Naming Functions to PTI Dear Sam, I am writing to you regarding the work of the Cross Community Working Group (CWG) to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions and in my capacity as co-chair of the CWG together with Lise Fuhr. In particular, as you are no doubt aware, the draft proposal envisages the setup of a legally separate entity and the transfer of certain functions the new entity i.e. the Post Transition IANA (PTI). In working through the "Punch List" of items that need to be dealt with, there are two items in particular that we need your assistance with. The items in question are under the section of "Transfer of naming functions to PTI" and are numbered 2 & 3 on the attached list. Please could you review these items and give us your input at your earliest convenience. Thank-you. Jonathan Robinson On behalf of the CWG

FW: Costings associatted with IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal

All. FYI. Jonathan. From: Jonathan Robinson [mailto:jrobinson@afilias.info] Sent: 12 May 2015 12:30 To: Xavier J. Calvez (xavier.calvez(a)icann.org) Cc: Grace Abuhamad (grace.abuhamad(a)icann.org) Lise Fuhr (lise.fuhr(a)difo.dk) Subject: Costings associatted with IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal Dear Xavier, I am writing to you on behalf of the Cross Community Working Group (CWG) to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions and in my capacity as co-chair of the CWG together with Lise Fuhr. I know that you are aware of the submission by the CWG into the comment period for the ICANN FY2016 budget. However, the CWG has specifically requested that I ask you to review our current draft proposal for cost implications and that you provide any comments and further information that you are able to. In particular, the proposal envisages moving from the current model of functional separation of the IANA unit within ICANN to a structure and mode of operation that is both functionally and legally separate. Our legal advisers have provided an indication of the basic costs associated with this type of structure and these are attached for your reference. However, these basic legal costs will not cover all of the issues and changes in cost. Therefore, as part of understanding the implications of the proposed transition, it will be very helpful to have your considered view of the future costs and the obvious implications for the 2016 and future ICANN budgets. Thank-you in advance for your assistance in dealing with this question. Best wishes, Jonathan Robinson On behalf of the CWG

FYI / The latest from the US congress about the IANA transition.
by Robert Guerra May 11, 2015

May 11, 2015

Wanted to forward this to the list in case some of you haven’t seen John Laprise’s note to the ISOC Internet Policy list… regards Robert > From: John Laprise <jlaprise(a)gmail.com> > To: internetpolicy(a)elists.isoc.org > Subject: [Internet Policy] The latest from the US congress about the > IANA transition. > Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 11:27:45 -0500 > > This is provided courtesy of Steven Aftergood's fantastic work at the > FAS. > > > > http://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44022.pdf The Future of Internet Governance: Should the U.S. Relinquish Its Authority Over ICANN? Lennard G. Kruger Specialist in Science and Technology Policy Congressional Research Service (CRS) http://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R44022.pdf Summary Currently, the U.S. government retains limited authority over the Internet’s domain name system, primarily through the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions contract between the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). By virtue of the IANA functions contract, the NTIA exerts a legacy authority and stewardship over ICANN, and arguably has more influence over ICANN and the domain name system (DNS) than other national governments. On March 14, 2014, NTIA announced the intention to transition its stewardship role and procedural authority over key Internet domain name functions to the global Internet multistakeholder community. To accomplish this transition, NTIA has asked ICANN to convene interested global Internet stakeholders to develop a transition proposal. NTIA has stated that it will not accept any transition proposal that would replace the NTIA role with a government-led or an intergovernmental organization solution. Currently, Internet stakeholders are engaged in a series of working groups to develop a transition proposal. Their goal is to submit a final proposal to NTIA by summer 2015. NTIA must approve the proposal in order for it to relinquish its authority over the IANA functions contract. While the IANA functions contract expires on September 30, 2015, NTIA has the flexibility to extend the contract for any period through September 2019. Concerns have risen in Congress over the proposed transition. Critics worry that relinquishing U.S. authority over Internet domain names may offer opportunities for either hostile foreign governments or intergovernmental organizations, such as the United Nations, to gain undue influence over the Internet. On the other hand, supporters argue that this transition completes the necessary evolution of Internet domain name governance towards the private sector, and will ultimately support and strengthen the multistakeholder model of Internet governance. Legislation has been introduced in the 113th and 114th Congresses which would prevent, delay, or impose conditions or additional scrutiny on the transition. In the 113th Congress, a provision in the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015 (P.L. 113-235) provides that during FY2015, NTIA may not use any appropriated funds to relinquish its responsibility with respect to Internet domain name system functions. In the 114th Congress, H.R. 805 (the DOTCOM Act of 2015) would prohibit NTIA from relinquishing its authority over the Internet domain name system until the Government Accountability Office (GAO) submits a report to Congress examining the implications of the proposed transfer. The proposed transition could have a significant impact on the future of Internet governance. National governments are recognizing an increasing stake in ICANN and DNS policy decisions, especially in cases where Internet DNS policy intersects with national laws and interests related to issues such as intellectual property, cybersecurity, privacy, and Internet freedom. How ICANN and the Internet domain name system are ultimately governed may set an important precedent in future policy debates—both domestically and internationally—over how the Internet should be governed, and what role governments and intergovernmental organizations should play

Proposed Submission to FY16 Budget & Op Plan Public Comment
by Jonathan Robinson May 11, 2015

May 11, 2015

On behalf of the CWG-Stewardship, we would like to submit the attached recommendations, specifically with regard to the costs for IANA operations. The CWG-Stewardship is developing a proposal on the IANA Stewardship Transition, focussed on the names related functions. As part of the CWG's recommendations for future IANA operations, the CWG-Stewardship tasked a subgroup (design team) to specifically look into budget-related recommendations. This subgroup worked with ICANN CFO Xavier Calvez to develop our recommendations. We would like to thank Xavier and his team for working with the CWG-Stewardship on this topic. The CWG recommendations are still in the process of being reviewed (including through the public comment process relating to the CWG draft proposal) but, because of the timing, the CWG believes that the draft recommendations should be submitted to the record of the public comments relating to FY16. The recommendations are provided in the attached document. For further drafts and background information on the CWG-Stewardship's work on this topic, please see https://community.icann.org/x/2RwnAw. Yours sincerely, Lise Fuhr and Jonathan Robinson Co-chairs of the CWG-Stewardship

Paul Kane's DIPD Request
by Alan Greenberg May 11, 2015

May 11, 2015

As I said on a call recently, I was somewhat distressed that the CWG building the plan for transition of the IANA stewardship from the NTIA to (as is now part of the plan) to ICANN had to file a formal request under ICANN's Documentary Information Disclosure Policy (DIDP) to get information relevant to our effort (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/didp-request-20150407-1-kane-re…) The reply (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/didp-response-20150407-1-kane-0…) does confirm that most of what we are asking for is already in the public domain and available. However, it also identifies one more class of information that may contain confidential information (presumably about registries) and that ICANN feels would not be appropriate to publish openly. I completely support that position. If I were to supply information to ICANN with an expectation of confidentiality, I would not want to see that information published either. But that reply sidesteps the real issue. The information is, today, routinely provided to the NTIA. When the NTIA is not longer part of the process, what happens. Since we do not know exactly what is in these reports, it is not possible for us to say whether they are needed any longer, and if so, who should they go to. Almost certainly they should not go to the CSC if they include registry-confidential data. Or perhaps they should go there, and we need to get registry sign-off that such distribution is acceptable. Surely if the NTIA currently feels that the information is valuable, we need to at least make an assessment and then make an appropriate recommendation on how to proceed. We either need mocked up reports (or whatever these are) purging them of possible confidential data, or we need to identify a number of individuals for who this information would not harm registry secrecy/privacy and who will sign a non-disclosure agreement, so that we can properly assess what to do post-transition.
