[discuss] Opportunity for input on the development process for IANA oversight transition plan

[Marilyn Cade]

I am also here at ICANN Singapore. 

I'll expand a bit on George's excellent comment: we are talking about a number of things, some of which are driven by the NTIA announcement; but we are also talking about two other threads of work related to IG - one is about further globalization of ICANN and accountability mechanisms, and another about continued evolution of the broader IG ecosystem and ICANN's role in that.

I can share that at the 3.5 hours so far - two sessions on Monday of relevance: there was a good deal of focus on the need for broad consultation and input, including discussion that ICANN was asked to launch a consultation but it certainly looks to me like this is well understood, which I think is what George said below.


BUT, we are also talking about our 'day to day' work at ICANN, so, if I miss a few critical posts and am delayed, please forgive me.

It’s unrealistic to think that input can be gathered inclusively through physical meetings.  However, it is possible to contribute through this list, which is being read by a large number of people.

We have cross-stakeholder conversations going, but (at least in my opinion) in order to be helpful to progress in Internet governance, whether for Net Mundial or for a longer term goal such as the transfer of the stewardship of the IANA functions, can we use this list productively to be heard in the global Internet governance discussions?
