Dear Tijani,

thank you for this. I am happy with the Charter as a whole except I have
queries for the following:


 

/_Relationship to CCWG to Develop an IANA Stewardship Transition
Proposal on Naming Related Functions _//[MK2] <#_msocom_2> //__/

///The IANA stewardship transition process is taking place alongside a
parallel and related process on enhancing ICANN accountability. While
maintaining the accountability of Internet identifier governance is
central to both processes, the CCWG to develop an IANA Stewardship
Transition Proposal’s scope is focused on the arrangements required for
the continuance of IANA functions in an accountable and widely accepted
manner after the expiry of the NTIA-ICANN contract. Accountability for
the administration of the IANA functions (i.e., implementation and
operational accountability) is not within the scope of this working
group as it is being dealt with by the CCWG to develop an IANA
Stewardship Transition Proposal. Nevertheless, the two processes are
interrelated and interdependent and should appropriately coordinate
their work./
------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have trouble understanding the end of this paragraph. There is an
ambiguity that needs to be cleared up - "the scope of this working
group".Furthermore, it becomes unclear what accountability one is
speaking about - I note here, INCLUDED are "accountability of Internet
identifier governance", "continuance of IANA functions in an accountable
and widely accepted manner" but apparently NOT "Accountability for the
administration of the IANA functions (implementation and operational
accountability)".

What's IN and what's OUT is important since this is a factor that can be
used to determine the outcome of the work. Please have the drafting Team
clarify.
Kind regards,

Olivier
