Reviewing RSSAC023v2: History of the Root Server System version 2
by Andrew McConachie June 1, 2020

June 1, 2020

Dear RSSAC Caucus Members, Thanks everyone who joined the call on Monday April 6th to discuss RSSAC023v2: History of the Root Server System version 2. As discussed on the call I accepted many suggestions in the Google doc and cleaned it up a bit. <https://docs.google.com/document/d/16FaQzGJnqBsy5zk4xmLPU2v7FUqLQT8readmSYI…> The major new edits we discussed on the call were to the following sections. 1.1 Terminology 2.11 Proposed Governance Model for the DNS Root Server System 7.2 Historical Copies of Root Name Server Information Please review those sections specifically and if you have any suggestions please add them to the document. There are still some formatting and whitespace issues that I need to fix in the document. I will be working on that this week and will produce a new version next week for the full 2 week RSSAC Caucus review cycle. Thanks, Andrew

Updating the RSSAC FAQ
by Andrew McConachie May 28, 2020

May 28, 2020

Dear RSSAC Caucus Members, According to the RSSAC Work Plan the RSSAC should update its FAQ before December every year. <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/rssac-work-plan-05feb20-en.pdf> Recently the RSSAC recieved a question via the ask-rssac(a)icann.org<mailto:ask-rssac@icann.org> mailing address concerning why the limit of 13 root servers had been set in the 1990s. Through researching that question with the help of input from community members we developed a new answer for this question in the RSSAC FAQ. Rather than just update that single question in the FAQ the RSSAC Admin Committee decided to use this as an opportunity to update the entire FAQ for 2020. The current FAQ: <https://www.icann.org/groups/rssac/faq> The draft new FAQ: <https://docs.google.com/document/d/13znyayqFMBXxPIRrKbhyQDk1dO7LOy9oFwedy-o…> Please review the new Draft FAQ and provide any input by May 14th, 2020. Thanks, Andrew
