CRISP Team,


Just as an update, I think the panel went well, in the context of I shared what I felt was important.

I compiled the points I made as slides (attached).
 - I made some changes in the order and how I shared my points in the context of the discussions, from what I had posted on the CRISP Team ML.
 - I didn't mention about the importance of working towards the target date and the transition to actually happen as I got the impression that this was given and the discussions are to focus on how to do this effectively.

There wasn't much discussions after each speakers from the operational communities shared the talking points. 
There wasn't much discussions among the Board on political situation either, which was different from what I had expected from the agenda which had been shared - but I don't find any issues about that.

While it is not requested or expected to submit the slides, it may be useful to send this to ICANN secretariat so that they can post this together with the recordings of the panel.
 I'm planning of suggestiong this to ICANN staff and see whether this could be accomodated.

Even in case this cannot be accomodated by ICANN, I wonder whether it would be share this on the ianaxer at nro.net so the our community can confirm what are the points which has been shared.
I would be useful in my opinion and open to hear other thoughts.

Any questions/comments about the panel are welcome.



Izumi

I think that we should acknowledge that there are specific, but minor, interdependencies, such as the need to publish numbers allocations via the in-addr DNS, but that these are fundamentally trivial technical issues, with equally trivial solutions.

As noted in numerous NRO communications over the past decade, the RIRs have been very satisfied with the performance of ICANN in the role of the IANA Numbering Services Operator. Taking this into account, and considering the Internet Number Community���������s strong desire for stability and a minimum of operational change, the Internet Number Community believes that ICANN should remain in the role of the IANA Numbering Services Operator for at least the initial term of the new contract.

I would like to point out that there was a time when ICANN was unable to meet even the most basic SLAs. They hired David Conrad to fix that problem, and he did an excellent job. Barbara Roseman was also a big part of making that happen, taking ICANN from being an organization with very long lead times���������after which you had to poke them again and figure out where the ball had gotten dropped���������to one that performs like an operational organization with a ticketing system and time-to-respond and so forth.  So the situation is one in which we have full confidence at this point.���������

>>>   It is hard to imagine a situation where the numbers community would wish to move to the IANA operator at the risk of operational stability, as this would affect the services they will be receiving.
>>>   This balance will be kept even more than the NTIA as it is in the numbers community to maintain stable and reliable operation.
