Hi,<br>
<br>
<br>
As the the 2nd draft for comment will be released shortly, the final
draft is attached. <br>
<br>
and we will have 28 days to comment.<br>
<br>
I recommend that anyone interested start with these webinars.<br>
And if you can't catch it live, I recommend you watch it later.<br>
<br>
We have talked about having a NCSG specific Webinar or CWG &
CCWG. What I would like to suggest is that the NCSG Webinar presume
that people have seen the ICANN webinar, so that when we meet, we
can focus on questions and thorny issues.<br>

the request of the National Telecommunications and
Information Administration (NTIA), an agency of the U.S
Department of Commerce, for ICANN to "convene a
multistakeholder process to develop a plan to transition
the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the
IANA Functions and related root zone management, a Cross
Community Working Group (CWG-Stewardship) was formed with
the purpose of developing a consolidated transition
proposal for the elements of the IANA Functions relating
to domain names.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333">The
CWG-Stewardship held briefing webinars on the first draft
proposal on 3-4 December 2014, and subsequently received
nearly 60 public comments. Following the close of the
public comment period, the CWG-Stewardship reviewed the
comments and continued to work at an intense pace to
prepare its transition proposal, through more than 30
teleconferences, a working session at ICANN 52 in
Singapore in February, a face-to-face meeting in Istanbul
in March and, most recently, during a two-day meeting
block with over 12 hours of conferences to converge on the

the aim to submit its final proposal to the IANA
Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) by the
close of ICANN 53 in June, the CWG-Stewardship highlights
the importance of broader community input of their draft,
for which the group has received independent legal counsel
for structural considerations and external expertise to
bolster operational sections.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
