Jonathan,

Most of the changes you made seem useful to me but I don’t think it is the responsibility of the IANA CWG or its chartering organizations to approve the CCWG work stream 1 recommendations except to the extent that they impact our recommendations.  Our task will be to determine whether the accountability recommendations from work stream 1 satisfy our needs with respect to CWG recommendations; that may or may not involve all of the work stream 1 recommendations.  Maybe I am nitpicking; if so let me know.

Subject: Re: [CWG-Stewardship] Chart on CWG link with CCWG on Accountability (UPDATED)

All,

In reviewing the flow-chart, I felt it could do with some revisions as I have commented on a number of occasions.

Most strikingly, the phrase “conditional accountability” has been causing some issues in that it’s not clear what this means, especially to the CCWG on Accountability, as was evidenced by reference to it on various occasions during their face-to-face meeting today.  What I understand that we mean by “conditional accountability” is that we view our proposal is conditional on specific accountability measures being put in place.

Please see below for a summary of the changes which are encapsulated in the updated flow chart.

The changes in the attached are as follows:

• Changed ‘final proposal identifying conditional accountability requirements’ to ‘final conditional proposal identifying accountability requirements'
• Added dotted line and dotted box to indicate that CWG-IANA would communicate to CCWG-Accountability in case it considers that accountability requirements are not met
• Updated (in bold) that chartering organisations would consider and approve (or not) work stream 1 recommendations and confirm whether accountability requirements have been met (or not)
• Updated (in bold) that the ICG would receive communication from chartering organisations / CWG-IANA

As ever, any comments or incremental improvements / developments welcome.

Subject: Chart on CWG link with CCWG on Accountability

All,

Please see attached for a draft / proposal for the mechanics and flow of linking the work of this CWG with that of the CCWG on Accountability.

As you know, this is a critical area of our work. Accordingly, this chart is provided to facilitate discussion on the subject and to assist us in getting to a common CWG view of the linkage and relationship.

Thank-you,

Jonathan & Lise
