[CRISP-TEAM] Draft announcement - 24h feedback (Re: Fwd: [NRO-IANAXFER] Updated 5th Draft SLA for the IANA Numbering Services - Call for Public Comments)

Fri Apr 1 15:47:57 CEST 2016

CRISP Team,

I would like to make one change as below.

> As we have expressed in our review for the 4th Draft, as SLA provides the Internet number community with its required accountability measures on IANA Numbering Services, it must be considered as an essential commitment along with other improvements to ICANN’s accountability. While the SLA will have no effect until the transition actually takes place on 30 September 2016, it should be finalsed and signed, no later than the finalised changes to the ICANN Bylaws which have been specified by CCWG-accountability.

...it should be finalsed, no later than the finalised changes to the ICANN Bylaws which have been specified by CCWG-accountability.

We didn't specify about signing in our review for the 4th Draft and it is too much details within the CRISP Charter to specify. We have already made our point about the importance of the SLA to be ready at the same timing as the Bylaws, and it should be left up to RIRs and ICANN on how exactly to ensure the readiness of the SLA, as part of the implementation.

I continue to welcome feedback until UTC23:00 today, 1st April.
I will then share our review on the 5th Draft to the global ianaxfer list.

Izumi

>>> About the Fifth Draft SLA
>>>
>>> The fifth draft of the SLA has been developed by a team consisting of individuals from different RIRs. It responds to the principles included in the Internet Number Community proposal and is based on the already existing provisions of the NTIA IANA agreement. The content of SLAv5 is the result of consideration of public comments received during the public comment period on the second draft SLA,informational meetings with ICANN staff regarding the operational provisions of the SLA, and ICANN’s written comments regarding the third and fourth draft SLA. It is written in such a way that it can be signed as part of the implementation of the IANA transition when this occurs or before, without pre-judging the outcome of the ICG coordinated proposal.
>>>
>>> The SLA includes legally important provisions, such as those that regulate the five RIRs collective actions and responsibilities in its dealings with ICANN under the SLA. It also includes background and definitions.
>>>
>>> The SLA also includes explanatory footnotes that reference the source of each article according to the Internet Number Community proposal principles or the NTIA IANA agreement.
>>>
>>> Next Steps
>>>
>>> The RIRs thank the community and ICANN staff for its thoughtful comments and now publish this SLAv5 in the interest of transparency and keeping the community apprised of progress being made on the SLA. We trust that all comments and concerns have been addressed and that the current draft, SLAv5, represents a mutually acceptable SLA that is consistent with the principles found within the Internet Number Community proposal. We invite public comments as we approach the final version, which will be signed with ICANN/IANA as part of the IANA Transition planning process and will take effect upon release of their existing agreement with NTIA.
