[Internal-cg] "Implementation"

[Alissa Cooper]

Following on the suggestions of Manal, Kavouss, Wolf-Ulrich, I’ve drafted emails below to send to the OCs. The ones for IANAPLAN and CRISP do not mention the proposal completion phase since their proposals are already complete. In all of the emails I’ve added one sentence about the fact that we’re looking for time estimates (based on what Patrik has said in this thread).

I’d like to approve these for sending during our May 27 call.

Thanks,
Alissa

Dear IANAPLAN WG,

The ICG chairs recently received a letter from Larry Strickling <http://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/correspondence/Letter-to-ICG-May-6.pdf> that included the following text:

"I ask that the community provide us with an update on the status of the transition planning and the associated timeframes, including the community’s views as to how long it will take to finalize the transition plan and implement it after it is approved. We request that you and the three primary customer working groups provide us with your views before the end of June, which will give you the opportunity to discuss these issues with the multistakeholder community at the June ICANN meeting in Argentina. In providing this feedback, please keep in mind that the United States Government will need sufficient time to evaluate the proposal and that all work items identified either by the ICG and the CCWG-Accountability as prerequisites for the transition will need to be implemented prior to the ending of the contract.”

The ICG is therefore gathering input about how much time the operational communities believe they will need to complete proposal development and implement the aspects of the transition proposal that the communities have identified as needing to be completed prior to the expiry of the NTIA contract (e.g., creation of new contracts, agreements, or entities). From start to finish, approximately how many weeks or months do you think your community will need to complete the implementation of these aspects? We understand that this may be difficult to predict; we would appreciate your best estimate and an explanation of factors contributing to that estimate.

If you could provide us an initial response via your ICG representatives (Jari Arkko and Alissa Cooper) by June 9 at 23:59 UTC, that would be much appreciated. If you have further thoughts to communicate to us later in June, that would be welcome.

Thanks,
Alissa, Patrik, and Mohamed
