Manal, the group decided to have the e-mail archives of this list open to the public. So anything discussed on the list is for all practical purposes public. So personally I would feel totally comfortable with anyone sharing anything that happens on this list, including documents exchanged here.

Information sharing beyond ICG ..

Is it ok to share, beyond this group, documents under discussion here or have you agreed to wait for versions approved by this coordination group first ? This is a general question for all documents being exchanged, just to make sure I'm not violating any agreed rules by sharing working documents .. Appreciate your advice .. Kind regards --Manal

charter version to go out on the web

July 20, 2014

This is a clean version of the final charter (and with the right version number). Once the statement goes out, it needs to have a pointer to this charter, so the charter also needs to be up on the web somewhere. You guys know what to do about that… Jari

Update on minutes of first face-to-face meeting
by Samantha Dickinson July 20, 2014

July 20, 2014

Hello all I have just about finished the first day's minutes, but have to catch a flight very shortly. A quick status update... The minutes are longer than I originally anticipated. Day 1 will end up being around 21 pages (including list of attendees and lots of bullet lists). The reason for the length is that, and I hope you don't mind me making this presumption, it seemed that as a first meeting, where the group was setting up its work for the coming year, it was important to document the discussion in some depth so that observers could better understand how the ICG reached its decisions. I also thought that detail may assist some of you, as representatives of your respective communities, prepare summaries or reports back to your communities, if any of you are doing that. The transcripts are available, of course, but I've tried to group discussions within agenda items by topic rather than order of speaker, so there is a more logical presentation of how the discussion developed. There may not be a need for such detailed minutes for upcoming meetings. I will send the completed Day 1 minutes when I reach Dubai (about 7 or 8 hours away). In the meantime, I have attached a table that could be an annex to the minutes of this first meeting. It contains a structured presentation of the information presented by ICG members in the "Introductions" section of Day 1. I will add the details of the members who arrived on Day 2 shortly. Day 2 minutes, due to me now embarking on my 26 hour journey back home, will probably not come out until Wednesday. I think I should be able to make them a bit shorter, however, since some of the contents of the discussions held on Day 2 were similar to that held on Day 1.

F2F Meeting Schedule
by Tracy Hackshaw July 20, 2014

July 20, 2014

Dear colleagues, I've been asked to communicate to the ICG by one of the GAC representatives that the proposed 17 October 2014 F2F meeting date would be extremely challenging given the close proximity of the date to the commencement of the ITU Plenipot in Busan, South Korea on 20 October 2014. Can this issue be taken into consideration when finalizing the F2F Meeting dates? Thanks in advance.

draft proposal for a public statement
by Jari Arkko July 18, 2014

July 18, 2014

I wrote this. Feel free to use, but only if you think we need one, buyer beware about defects in the merchandise, etc. Jari ——— In March 2014, the NTIA announced its intention to transition its stewardship role of IANA functions to the global multistakeholder community. As a part of this transition, the Internet community has launched efforts to derive a proposal to do this and meet the criteria set out by the NTIA. A large part of these efforts are ongoing in the respective communities, for instance for names in ICANN and country-code communities, for numbers in the RIR community, and for protocol parameters in the IETF. In addition, The IANA stewardship transition coordination group (ICG) has been set up with a mission is to coordinate the development of a proposal among the communities affected by the IANA functions. The group has one deliverable: a proposal to the U.S. Commerce Department National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) regarding the transition of NTIA’s stewardship of the IANA functions to the Internet community. The group will conduct itself transparently, consult with a broad range of stakeholders, and ensure that its proposals support the security and stability of the IANA functions. The membership of the ICG has been defined by the Internet communities participating in it, namely (ALAC, ASO, ccNSO, GAC, GNSO, gTLD, ICC/BASIS, IAB, IETF, ISOC, NRO, RSSAC, SSAC) and the group's creation was facilitated by ICANN. The ICG has met for the first time on 17-18 July in London, UK. The members of the ICG were on while others connected remotely. The meeting was also streamed live to all interested observers in six different languages. In its first meeting, the ICG completed a proposed charter and scope for itself, talked about a timeline for the transition and communication needs, and worked on the ICG's internal organisation and participation. The meeting minutes and recordings are available at (URL) and draft charter and timeline are at (URL) and (URL). In the coming days and weeks the ICG will be starting its dialogue with Internet communities.

Hello Colleagues, The [Secretariat] should scan the global landscape for discussions/forums/events on the IANA Stewardship and related issues, especially in the regional/local IGFs and similar meetings - alert the CG and provide briefs/summaries on the outcomes of same. If not the Secretariat, I am not certain that this important part of the input - which may float outside of the "traditional" community consciousness should be left to the members of the CG.

GAC Participation on the IANA Transition Coordination Group
by Lynn St.Amour July 18, 2014

July 18, 2014

Dear CG members, thank you for all the goodwill shown in our discussion earlier today. There was a clear focus on moving ahead, and it was a real team effort. As discussed, I offer the following text for your review. Once we agree the text, I believe the next step is to send this to the GAC Chair - Heather Dryden, either from the CG Chair if one has been appointed at that point, if not perhaps from ICANN staff (Theresa?). Note also: I assumed successful conclusion in Day 2 on several items where we seem to be well advanced; obviously if we are not able to close on these in Day 2, we may need to alter the text below. Fire away, I am sure it can be improved. Best, Lynn -------- To be sent to: Heather Dryden - GAC Chair Heather, the IANA Transition Coordination Group (CG) would like to thank you for your participation in our inaugural meeting, especially as it came in the middle of your vacation. As you likely observed, significant progress was made on several fronts. In particular, the CG has high alignment [reached agreement] on: 1) a group charter, 2) a scoping statement for our work, 3) clear expectations that the work be done in the respective communities, with participation from all stakeholders, leaving the CG the relatively narrow role of coordination, and 4) a nascent agreement that we would operate by "consensus" judged more by the merit of the objections rather then the number. These are important to note as these are expectations for all members of the CG, and it is critically important that we all commit to them. We have quite an ambitious goal and an aggressive timetable. To the question at hand, following on from the GAC request that the GAC be allowed to appoint five (5) individuals to the CG, and noting that the original allotment was not established through consultation with the GAC, nor of course the CG as it had not been established at that time. The CG recognized the benefit to all of gaining an early and broad perspective from governments. We also believe that this will allow for liasing beyond the normal GAC processes, and this will ultimately be key to global acceptance of the transition proposal. The CG also asked for assurance that there would be participation from the GAC in other IANA Transition community efforts. In other words, increased participation in the CG should not supplant participation in other community efforts related to the IANA Stewardship Transition. In closing, we would like to thank the GAC for working with us through this process, and believe we have a solution that will benefit us all in the end. Best regards,
