CRISP Team,
My observations about each of Richard's point as below.
Please let me know your thoughts.
(I didn't feel creating a seperate thread per issue helped in giving
inputs and simply increased the number of e-mails, so try the approach
per auther - but feel free to create per issue thread if useful)
If you don't have to comment on all point. Just the ones you have an
opinion is fine.
1) Add more details of dispute resolution (III A.3.x.)
- We agreed to stick to principles and leave it for RIR staff to
reflect the details, based on a suggestion on the IANAXFER list
- If to address the concern the contract will be between five RIRs,
perhaps describe high level principles on the factors to consider in
deciding a place and arbitration scheme
(but is this a concern? How does it work for ASO MoU)
2) VI. Reflect low input in RIR processes
- What are your thoughts?
- Firstly, do you agree with this observation about low inputs?
This is true in case of APNIC region but what about others.
- I am OK to reflect an observation on how much input was received
with explaining reasons; but
- I don't agree with saying this wasn't bottom-up.
I don't think having low input (if true) equals no bottom-up.
There area reasons for this.
e.g.., most RIR communities are comfortable with the current IANA
operation and don't feel the strong urge to comment as there
is no direct NTIA involvement today
3) Why the option of having NRO as an operator is not considered
- He says some support was expressed for this option in some RIR lists
Any region which observed this?
(I don't this was the case in the APNIC region. It may be possible
someone outside the region may have mention which I overlooked but
certainly not a level of notable support or a recognition.)
- He also asks for providing a reason why CRISP Team hasn't considered
this option. What are your thoughts?
4) Change in ICANN Bylaws for global PDP
- We discussed it in CRISP Team call but agreed this is out of scope
My summary of what was discussed: (corrections welcome)
- NTIA doesn't play a role in gPDP
- If RIR communities believe this should be reconsidered, it should be
discussed under the standard gPDP process.
It would not be appropriate for CRISP Team to break this existing
bottom-up process and propose something not related to NTIA
stewardship transition.
5) Community cannot approve this part of the transition plan without an
SLA text
According to my memory, this is what we discussed and agreed:
- We agreed to put leave the high level principles as it is beyond the
scope of CRISP Team to define an actual SLA
- We are not RIRs and developing a contract on behalf of RIRs would be
stepping outside of our role.
I personally feel it would be helpful if we could say a little more
than this, such as the idea is to have the SLA completed before the
transition and we are listing high level principles as its reference.
Then again, this may go back to the point discussed at the 9th call,
we shouldn't mention anything we cannot be control/outside our role.
What are your thoughts?
Izumi

Thank you for this.
The new version appears to me to reflect correctly the discussions on this
list, except that (a) in III.A.3.x, a specific arbitration scheme (e.g. ICC
in Bermuda) should be mentioned; and (b) the substantive law applicable to
the contract/SLA should be specified (as stated at the end of IV.B); this is
particularly important because, as I understand it, the contract will be
between ICANN and the five RIRs, so it might be tricky to determine the
applicable substantive law if a dispute actually arises.
In addition, I think that the language in VI needs to be tweaked a bit.
While the RIR processes are indeed bottom up, there wasn't much bottom up in
this particular process, not because of the process, but because there
weren't that many inputs from the bottom. The RIRs did try to stimulate
inputs, going so far as to send out surveys, but there weren't that many
responses. So I think that the opening section of VI should reflect that.
Regarding III.A.1, on some of the RIR lists there was some support for
moving the numbers part of the IANA function to the NRO (which could
subcontract it to one of the RIRs, or whatever). Apparently there was not
sufficient support in CRISP to pursue that option. But I think that some
mention should be made of it, together with an explanation of why that
option was not pursued (other than "we are satisfied with ICANN's
performance to date").
Also, I still wonder whether any changes to the ICANN Bylaws are needed in
order to clarify that number policies are made by the RIRs, not by the ICANN
Board. That is, is a new contract sufficient, or is there a need to also
change the ICANN Bylaws? If the CRISP team considered this point, then it
should be documented, otherwise it needs to be discussed.
More importantly, I don't think that this version is sufficient to
constitute a proper response to the IGC RFP, because it does not provide the
actual text of the new contract/SLA. I don't see how the community could
approve this part of the transition plan without seeing the actual proposed
contract. That proposed contract could be provided as an Annex to the
present document.
So I don't think that a response can be sent to the ICG until that Annex
(with the proposed contract) is ready.
Best,
Richard
