Call for volunteers - IPR issue
All, We now need to get to work on dealing with the IANA IPR. As you know, there are various reference documents as follows: 1. ICG Proposal <https://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/IANA-stewardship-transition-prop osal-EN.pdf> https://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/IANA-stewardship-transition-propo sal-EN.pdf 2. The recent draft specification from the numbers community <http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/cwg-stewardship/2015-October/004441.html> http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/cwg-stewardship/2015-October/004441.html 3. The framework from the protocols community <http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/cwg-stewardship/2015-October/004449.html> http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/cwg-stewardship/2015-October/004449.html 4. The ICANN Board Statement <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-08-15-en> https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-08-15-en 5. The CWG Statement on the IPR issue <https://community.icann.org/x/LohYAw> https://community.icann.org/x/LohYAw It seems to the CWG Stewardship chairs that we need a group with relevant expertise to look into and propose the principles and requirements for a post-transition home for the IANA IPR. Relevant expertise may include; trademark law and practice, trust law and practice and detailed understanding of background to the formation, development and management of the IETF Trust. Given that the other operational communities are ahead of us on this and very interested to communicate and collaborate as necessary, there is some urgency to this work. Ideally a draft should be ready for the meeting on 5th November. Accordingly, please could we hear from interested participants with relevant expertise as soon as possible. Please express your interest on list. Thank you, Lise & Jonathan CWG Co-Chairs
I volunteer for this group. Greg Shatan On Thu, Oct 22, 2015 at 3:10 PM, Lise Fuhr <lise.fuhr@difo.dk> wrote:

Hi, I don't have any legal qualifications at all, but I am an IETF Trustee. In the interests of keeping communication loops short, I'm prepared to collaborate in this work. A On Thu, Oct 22, 2015 at 04:10:53PM +0200, Lise Fuhr wrote:

Dear All Firstly, let me say in the past with NTIA's stewardship (including the IANA contract rebid) the ICANN/IANA have done an excellent job at serving the naming community. However, I would like clarification on the CWG's desired mechanics of the independence of the IANA Functions Operator from or being "impacted" by ICANN Corporate interests. My understanding was that the PTI was "separate" from ICANN (yet internal to ICANN). My understanding was that there was a pre-determined escalation path to resolve disputes between IANA operator and its customers My understanding was that in the event of a failure by ICANN/PTI to meet the needs of the Registry naming community - the IANA functions would be stripped out.... (in a controlled pre-determined manner). Can I be reassured that my assumptions are correct ??? Thanks Best Paul
I believe so, with minor edit; It's the naming community as structured within the IFRT and the SCWG. Secondly, only the IANA functions relating to names would be applicable(although I expect that other OCs would have moved their functions long before names is done moving theirs) and lastly, it's the needs as defined in the ICANN/PTI SLE. Regards Sent from my Asus Zenfone2 Kindly excuse brevity and typos.

My understanding was that the PTI was "separate" from ICANN (yet internal to ICANN).
It is not internal, it is a separate subsidiary. While majority controlled by ICANN, it is a separate entity.

Your assumptions about our objectives are correct. Seun's reminder that this applies only to the naming functions (numbers and protocols would be "stripped out" by their own respective communities) is correct. However, the enforcement mechanisms for ensuring that the names community can actually require ICANN to cough up IANA are not settled yet. That is the task of the CCWG, and we are awaiting its results. There will be a public comment period on its new plan, so please review it carefully and let us know whether you, from your unique perspective as a ccTLD operator, believe that the procedures and enforcement mechanisms are good enough. --MM
Thanks
Best

Jonathan & Lise, I am happy to volunteer for this task. I view this as a neutral facilitator/*rapporteur* role and would strive to be effective in that capacity. We have the benefit of excellent legal counsel if a question of law or legal best practice arises; while I would hope that we would need to turn to them only rarely, doing so would be preferable to trying to hash out "the law" in this DT. What's important is to work in an open, collegial and reasonably efficient manner to establish "the principles and requirements for a post-transition home for the IANA IPR." I will caution that the original goal of having a draft ready for the meeting on the 5th of November (which is in less than 18 hours) is a tad ambitious. Nonetheless, I'm committed to working as quickly as possible under the circumstances, consistent with good BUMP (bottom-up multistakeholder processes).
