  • Xavier and Elise intend to put together a document that sets out a process, timeline, and allows for a community 
    review process. The draft will be high-level and can be refined later on.

“To maintain ongoing operational excellence and financial stability of the IANA functions (so long as they are performed by 
ICANN or pursuant to contract with ICANN) and PTI, ICANN shall be required to plan for and allocate funds to the IANA 
functions and PTI, as applicable, that are sufficient to cover the future expenses and contingencies to ensure uninterrupted 
performance of those IANA functions and PTI in the future”

Action: Grace to transmit agreed Bylaw text to DT-O for approval, then to Jonathan and Lise once 
agreement in DT-O. Responses within 24h at most. Lise and Jonathan could confirm whether the text has legal's 'blessing'.

  Xavier: (15:30) I am confused if we are talking about hte IANA budget or the objective in the bylaws?

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:31) I am not sure either Xavier. The text from Sharon is with regards to the Bylaws

  Cheryl Langdon-Orr  (CLO): (15:31) Sorry to confuse you   we have moved to BY law language noow  thugh they are related of course as Mary's point on 1st charge  shows

  Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (15:34) I am happy with Greg's suggestion

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:35) Yes, Sharon did agree. The text, however, has not been re-circulated in its final form

  Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (15:35) Do we not need to, first, make sure there is consensus on the DT-O list?

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:36) That's a good suggestion.

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:37) All -- Does this work? Action: Staff to transmit agreed Bylaw text to DT-O for approval, then to Jonathan and Lise once agreement in DT-O. Ask DT-O whether the language seems redundant.

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:37) This incorporates Olivier's suggestion

  Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (15:40) yes that works. Thanks Grace

  Grace Abuhamad: (15:42) Chuck just sent through an agenda via DT-O mailing list

  Chuck Gomes: (15:45) Sorry.  I was thinking Monday's time.

  Grace Abuhamad: (16:00) If you have a chance, please look at the two suggested options for a DT-O call next week. If we can lock down a time now, it will be easier than extra emails and Doodles later

  Cheryl Langdon-Orr  (CLO): (16:02) Chuck  we started about 6 mins late  FYI

  Grace Abuhamad: (16:03) Brenda has informed me that the ALAC leadership call is on Wednesday at 12:00 UTC... So that Option is no longer viable
