  • IANA Transition & ICANN Accountability

IN PROGRESS

 


Notes: 

  • Could feed into ICANN accountability process and the work of At-Large IANA issues WG.

    • It is a very important recommendation. Are we pushing enough to strengthen the position of the end users (this concerns the question of civil society and the role of ALAC/At-Large)? It seems that we haven't pushed CCWG-Accountability to fully address those questions and consider the position of end users. 
    • The ALAC/At-Large have been advocating for end users to balance the power of other interested parties, and will continue to do so. The recommendation has already been implemented.  
    • We are not in the position to say that the end user rights are more important than other rights. 
    • Should the ALAC advocate that the end users' concerns trump other concerns? Yes, in some cases, users should take dominance; but not all the time. The needs of users may not be so much different from the needs of other parties. For example, regarding IANA stewardship transition, there is almost 100% overlap between the interests of registries and the interests of users in terms of the operational aspect of IANA functions.
