[Internal-cg] Timing of ICG/CCWG proposals

[Paul Wilson]

Hi all,

My understanding is that we have a timing problem with the CCWG process 
if another full public comment cycle is needed before completion of the 
accountability proposal, and if we wait for that before we submit to 
ICANN/NTIA.  If that’s the case, do we have a solution for this?

I hope that the ICG proposal can be finalised and submitted in any case, 
before the CCWG completes.  If so, then when the CCWG does complete, it 
is only necessary for the 3 communities (primarily CWG) to confirm that 
the final accountability solution is acceptable to them, and for that to 
be conveyed formally to all concerned.

As far as I’m aware, nothing within the CCWG process will have a 
substantial impact on the ICG proposal;  the only issue is that the CCWG 
proposal must be acceptable, before the ICG proposal can be finally 
accepted and approved by NTIA.  Therefore we can parallelise these 
processes to avoid breaking our overall timelines.

Does this work, or have I missed something?

Paul.
