> As you are aware, the ICG has requested the Numbers Community to respond to them, with an update on the status of the transition planning and the associated timeframes for our community.

> As Izumi and I have made clear in our communication with the NRO EC, the CRISP team is more than happy to facilitate the communication to the ICG and the community. However, we believe that it is the responsibility of the RIRs to identify what implementation steps are necessary and what timelines the RIRs can commit to. 
> 
> To assist with the response, the CRISP team has started listing issues that may need to be included in such a response and have asked the RIR staff members on the CRISP team to act as points of contact. However, we strongly feel that this work needs to be carried out and coordinate by the RIRs and is not for the CRISP team to assume. 
> 
> As we at this point do not have any clear timelines communicated to us by the RIRs, we have responded to the ICG that we are currently coordinating a response with the RIRs before the end of June. However, we understand from our ICG NRO liaisons Paul and Alan, that the ICG had expected a more substantial response from the RIRs now. A complete response is not necessary at this point, but there is pressure on the Numbers community to provide at least a rough estimate in the coming week. 
> 
> We believe that we all agree that it is important for us to provide a positive and timely response to the ICG, not only to allow them to plan their work, but also to continue to instill confidence in the process. We feel that it is key to show that the Numbers community remains committed to the transition process and the proposed timelines. 
> 
> We would therefore like to request the RIRs to produce a response to the ICG request in the coming week, for the CRISP team to submit to the ICG.

> If you could provide us with a suggested deadline for this, that would be much appreciated.

> We are of course happy to make ourselves available for a teleconference, should you want to discuss any of this with us.

>>> "Accordingly, to assist us in our planning for the fall, I ask that the community provide us with an update on the status of the transition planning and the associated timeframes, including the community�s views as to how long it will take to finalize the transition plan and implement it after it is approved. We request that you and the three primary customer working groups provide us with your views before the end of June, which will give you the opportunity to discuss these issues with the multistakeholder community at the June ICANN meeting in Argentina. In providing this feedback, please keep in mind that the United States Government will need sufficient time to evaluate the proposal and that all work items identified either by the ICG and the CCWG-Accountability as prerequisites for the transition will need to be implemented prior to the ending of the contract.�

>>> The ICG is therefore gathering input about how much time the operational communities believe they will need to complete proposal development and implement the aspects of the transition proposal that the communities have identified as needing to be completed prior to the expiry of the NTIA contract (e.g., creation of new contracts, agreements, or entities). From start to finish, approximately how many weeks or months do you think your community will need to complete the implementation of these aspects? We asked about this in our RFP but would appreciate an up-to-date estimate. We understand that this may be difficult to predict; we would appreciate your best estimate and an explanation of factors contributing to that estimate.
>>> 
>>> If you could provide us an initial response via your ICG representatives (Paul Wilson and Alan Barrett) by June 9 at 23:59 UTC, that would be much appreciated. If you have further thoughts to communicate to us later in June, that would be welcome.
