Alan,
Thanks for your work on this.
While the current IANA contract is an extremely useful guidepost to the transition, I have always been concerned that using it as a starting point for discussion creates a bit of a “tail wagging the dog” phenomenon.

I reiterate again the danger of hanging too much of our process on this methodology. We need to decide what kind of arrangements we want first,
+1
and design the contract around those requirements – not the other way around.
I will add that after determining the type of arrangement, we then determine what mechanism/approach will work for such arrangement....contract can be one of the options to be considered. Cheers!

Please find attached an initial draft of the triage of the IANA functions contract as discussed on the CWG call this week.
The first document is the draft Triage itself, organized as per our meeting this week. In the second I have pasted the provisions that I have brought together all of the provisions that I categorized as “Likely Needs Improving” and “Linked to Accountability and Oversight”. I know that a number of you, including Chuck Gomes, Kris Seeburn, Greg Shatan, James Gannon, Guru Acharya, Mary Uduma, Wanawit Ahkuputra, and Pitinan Kooarmornpatana have all volunteered to work on this. Thank you. I have sent the drafts to the full list as I do not have all of your emails. Could I ask that anyone who has already volunteered, or anyone that wishes to do so now, to respond quickly to this email so that we might start a CWG RFP2C list.
I invite you to review the current draft documents. I am hoping that this can be done in the documents themselves. But if the comments and changes become too cumbersome, I will ask Bart or Marika to suggest how we can deal with these. In closing let me make a general comment. I see the objective of this exercise as being to *identify* potential issues that will need to be addressed at some point. I do not, however, see *the resolution* of these issues as being part of this SWG’s work. Rather I see its objective as being to inform the work of the other SWG’s, RFP3 in particular.
Regards
Allan
