To be consistent with our charter, if we talk about the RZM, I think we should do so in the context of replacing NTIA’s accountability with regard to the RZM. The drawback is that there doesn’t seem to be much we can say without more input from NTIA, nor does it seem possible for community members to be able to provide much constructive input until that input is received. Maybe we should say something like this: “The CWG charter task of providing a replacement for NTIA’s accountability role with regard to the RZM function is one that will need to be considered once more direction is given by NTIA.”
I agree with the suggested edit; based on the faq[1] released by NTIA it does seem there is going to be another process that will handle the RZM, which makes it quite unclear whether that is also a task of the CWG (not even at ICG level). I quote the relevant section below: *Q. What impact does this announcement have on the cooperative agreement
with Verisign?*
A. Aspects of the IANA functions contract are inextricably intertwined with the VeriSign cooperative agreement (i.e., authoritative root zone file management), which would require that *NTIA coordinate a related and parallel transition* in these responsibilities.
One may need to clarify from the ICG how it intends to handle the RZM in relation to their scope of work. Regards 1. http://www.ntia.doc.gov/other-publication/2014/iana-functions-and-related-ro...

Hi,
Among his comment Alan made the following:
Do we not also need a note saying that so far, we have not addressed .int. And perhaps also the RZM, to the extent that it is within our scope. Sub note: it would be good to have some clarity on exactly wat part of the RZM *IS* within our scope.
Strongly agree.
The proposal clearly called for the MRT to be incorporated, a clear difference from the intent in the Contract Co. model
I think there is still some discussion among proponents of the external trust model. I personally support the incorparation of the MRT as an association and see it as the guarantor, or whatever we call it, of the Trust. I do not think, however, that this was an essential part of the original proposal. So if something is added, it should not be definitive on the incorporation point - I think that sort of fine point is somewhat dependent on what we learn about the various legal regimes for Trusts and trust-like mechanisms.
I think that it very important to add that all of the Internal to ICANN models PRESUME that the CCWG-Accountability will be able to deliver iron-clad accountability measures to ensure that the MS community cannot be overruled by the ICANN Board.
I agree the absolute imperative of this for the Internal model is one of the major motivational differences with the External models.
