Hi all, Apologies that I have not been able to make the last few calls. I was reviewing the PTI implementation approach document and I noticed that Section 2.3 says: "In the event of separation, ICANN commits to an effectuating an orderly transition, including providing the seconded employees the option of employment with the affiliate, the successor, or ICANN. This commitment will be reflected in the naming function contract between ICANN and PTI.” What does it mean for ICANN to provide the option of employment with the successor? I assume by "successor" what is meant is the new operator to replace PTI, for one or more IANA functions. In that case, ICANN wouldn't likely have the option of offering employment by the successor -- the successor would be a separate organization altogether, which is the point of separation. Does this mean ICANN won't prevent PTI employees from being employed by the successor (e.g., it won’t impose some sort of non-compete agreement)? If that is not what it means, what does it mean? Also, given that the second sentence says that this commitment will be reflected specifically in the naming function contract, does that mean it will not also apply to the seconded employees performing the other two functions (to the extent that employees are assigned wholly to either or both of the other two functions)? I read through the transcript for call #10 but did not see these questions raised on the call. Thanks, Alissa
