2. review/updates from sub-workings groups on timeline(s), stress tests

Action SIVA: review document and merge with documents of this group.
Include in document , with qualification, important , normal, not relevant in this context.
Based on this document, group to design a survey.
Note this group: Larry Strickling asked some specific questions to CWG, and one in particlur to this group.
Jaap: notes difference made between test for transition and those related to accountability. Further Siva list needs to be trimmed to proper risks.. Currently list is open ended..
Action Siva: Group /merge the tests/scenario's identified in similar way as WA 4 CCWG list. Need to check if relevant for transition.
Question: what does it mean if a test fails? What are the metrics if doing the test/benchmark?
No clear answer. This is testing organization.
Suggestion: check what is meant with testing. Is checking impact on
Action Staff: RFP 4 wants to have a meeting with staff/and or NTIA around meaning of tests
Going forward
No further comments on Larry Strickling statement
Greg: Check what are causes ans outcomes. tests should be focused on IANA specific risks.
OCL: Board Risk Framework Committee,(BRC) is working on list of contingencies. This list is most likely not publicly available. Assumption the list of scenario's is on list.
Action staff : try to arrange meeting with BRC to seek information from them on risks already identified, and possibly relevant for RFP 4 group
Update Timeline, transition time line
OCL: Time line was geared against one proposal , however it this is now changing given RFP 3b now will look at two alternatives.
Update RFP 3b AM
RFP 3b contributes to document of CWG in preparation Singapore. The internal Option, will include two variants
"Trust" option
"Bylaw option"
RFP 3 update: moving forward on fleshing out Contract Co option. Latest focus on structural details and functions
As structural details are build out, more details could be included in set risks
3. improvements to working methods
Looking for better coordination with other groups within CWG and with WA 4 of CCWG.
Need to avoid silo-ed work.
Question: what is best way to evolve work of this group, in conjunction with evolution of the differnt models.
How could coordination and collaboration with others could be improve
- GS: Iterative process between RFP 3 and RFP 4. Would be helpful for RFP 3 to review work of RFP 4 to inform their work: apply stress test while models are developed.
- Vice versa also applies. Update stress test, when tests are applied to models.
- Actively compare risk scenario's developed by different groups: BRC, CCWG, CWG and others
- RG: To assist Feed-back of this group to RFP 3, what are changes going forward.
- OCL: Raises concern that RFP 3b has reached standstill until Singapore awaiting Legal consideration. Risk of moving forward by this, without a linkage.
- GS: notes legal advise is limited, should not be preclude to work in parallel on developing tests.
- Try to work in parallel, and improve coordination to avoid wasting efforts.
4. Planning for ICANN Singapore meeting
- Possible meetings with others. Suggestion to be send to list
- Action all: request if participants see a need to meet, if so , then use Doodle poll to set time.
- Question: is there need for meeting before Singapore by this group? Response need on the list by Friday 30 January 2015. 16.00 UTC.

Brenda Brewer: Good Day everyone. Welcome to the RFP4 call on 28 JAN.
jaap akkerhuis (SSAC):Hi All!
Robert Guerra:we will start 4-5 min past the hour. to allow more people to join us
Brenda Brewer:Siva is on phone line only
Robert Guerra:thanks brenda. welcome siiva. we will start in a minute
Allan MacGillivray:Good morning Robert et al.
Brenda Brewer:Siva's line must be muted on his end.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:I cannot hear Siva
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:aah ok good now
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:I can speak about RFP3b, if you wish
Brenda Brewer:Seun Ojedeji is on the phone line only
Robert Guerra:http://www.ntia.doc.gov/speechtestimony/2015/remarks-assistant-secretary-strickling-state-net-conference-1272015
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:Again, I'd like to point people to the DSSA's work. Its remit was described here: http://gnso.icann.org/en/group-activities/inactive/2014/dssa
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:DSSA final report: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/7930080/DSSA%20-%20Final%20Report.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1384431121000&api=v2
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:I note that the Board DNS Risk Management Framework has also identified many rirks to ICANN. I know it doesn't directly relate to our own work, but it is likely to relate to the Accountability CCWG work
Sivasubramanian M Phone:sorry . in an Env toonoisy.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:aaah but you have an analytical mind, Jaap! You can test anything! :-)
Brenda Brewer:Berry's phone line disconnected
Berry Cobb:Sorry, yes not able to talk. No updates on timeline as it relates to RFP4
Robert Guerra:thanks berry.
Greg Shatan:At the risk of stating the obvious, the other list of "potential failures" that must be assembled is a list of the failures that could happen to the proposed post-transition structures (with scenarios for the Trustee/Trust/Guardian, Contract Co, MRT/CSC, IAP, etc.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond 2:The other option is colloquially called the "golden bylaw" option
John Poole:John Poole: Is there a link to the "Proposed Consolidated Contingency/Scenarios" document(s)?
Allan MacGillivray:I am in complete agreement with Greg on coordination between RFP3b, 3b and RFP4.
Greg Shatan:Of course, we need to be as efficient as possible under the circumstances.,
Greg Shatan:I agree that nothing will be final until everything is final.... Also, at some point, it will not be possible to "iterate" without legal input -- but we are not at that point yet. In essence, we should try to get to that point. (And the legal consultation should try to get up to the point where that doesn't occure, etc.).
Allan MacGillivray:Bye all!
Robert Guerra:thank you all
Greg Shatan:Bye and thanks!
