IANA Functions Stewardship Transition Updates

16 July 2014

On 14 March 2014, the NTIA announced
<http://www.ntia.doc.gov/press-release/2014/ntia-announces-intent-transition-key-internet-domain-name-functions>
its intention to transition its stewardship role of IANA functions, and
called upon ICANN to launch and facilitate a process with the community to
derive a proposal to transition the IANA functions to the global
multistakeholder community, meeting the criteria set out by the NTIA.

Following community dialogue, the process
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/process-next-steps-2014-06-06-en>
for developing a proposal for this transition was posted on 6 June 2014. As
a part of this process, a Coordination Group will be responsible for
preparing a transitional proposal respective of the differing needs of the
various affected parties of the IANA functions.

See here for a full list of the Coordination Group Representatives
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/coordination-group-2014-06-17-en>.

The first face-to-face meeting of the Coordination Group will take place in
London from 08:00-17:00 UTC on 17-18 July at the Hilton London Metropole
Hotel
<http://www3.hilton.com/en/hotels/united-kingdom/hilton-london-metropole-LONMETW/index.html>
.

The global multistakeholder community will be able to follow the
Coordination Group's first meeting through the Virtual Meeting Room
<https://icann.adobeconnect.com/coordinationgroup/> and through audio
translations into these languages:

   - English <http://stream.icann.org:8000/coordinationgroup-en.m3u>
