[Internal-cg] Questions from webinars

Hi Kavouss,

I am not clear on your objections, can you clarify please?  Is the objection over the roles of the 3 OCs (as described below) with respect to the(ir) IFO or perhaps the IFO and the PTI are conflated in the text below.

The 3 OCs are or will be responsible for evaluating the performance of the(ir) IFO (through various community managed oversight mechanisms).  They will also be responsible for ensuring that any deficiencies are brought back into line with expected service levels.  While today, the IFO for all 3 OCs is in one organization (department), the OCs have all made it clear in their proposals that the responsibility for who their IANA functions operator will be in the future will reside with the individual communities.  

It can be hard to find words that capture the appropriate intent of all 3 proposals, so perhaps ICG members from the 3 communities can also help clarify/suggest text.  In the interest of moving this along, I suggested some edits (in caps) that may help, but again Kavouss, I am not sure I understand your objections, so these may miss the mark.

Current:  "The three Operating Communities (OCs) are responsible for evaluating the performance of the IFO and for making whatever decisions are required to ensure their community’s needs and expectations are met, including choosing/changing their IANA functions operator."

Proposed: "The three Operating Communities (OCs) are responsible for evaluating the performance of THEIR IFO and for making whatever decisions are required to ensure their community’s needs and expectations are met, including choosing/changing the IANA functions operator FOR THEIR SET OF IANA FUNCTIONS."

Can I ask the secretariat to prepare the other FAQs for posting while we work to close on this one (given the comment period is nearly half over. and we have good agreement on the others).  I would suggest we reorder the FAQs a bit to put these questions related to the proposal at the beginning and leave the others which largely address questions about the ICG or the process to the subsequent sections.  You could repurpose section VII (make it section I) and edit it to read "About the ICG combined proposal" and under that include questions, 12 and 19, and these new questions. 

For ease of ICG members, those questions/sections are as follows:

Q12: Have the ICG identified any issues after the individual and collective proposals assessment?

Section VII. About ICG combined proposal and public comment period
Q19.  How does the overall oversight model of the combined proposal look like?

Jennifer, if you need anything else from me, just let me know.  We will get the final question to you ASAP.

Many thanks to all,

Lynn
