Secondly, I think there is much confusion wrt the term "ICANN". Some times people use ICANN to me the small group of people employed by ICANN who perform the IANA operations, some times people mean the ICANN Board who ratifies Global Number Policy, sometimes people mean the entire ICANN community who discusses Domain Name concerns and such, and some time people mean a combination of some or all of those pieces. First let me say WRT Global Policy making, we have a very good process, per the ASO MoU . This does not change with NTIA stepping away. What does change is the contract between the NTIA and ICANN for the IANA functions. This document has some vague language about SLAs. I understand the "real" SLAs are in this doc . I already recommended (and David Huberman supported) step 1: we pull out those SLAs and put them in a document. And asked ARIN staff to start on that work. I'd like to ask the CRISP team, specifically Michael for a status on this work, and for that doc to be posted here once compiled. Step 2: We then need to decide what legal vehicle we should have, and who should it be between. Should it be an MoU, a contract for services of the IANA function, or some other legal document? And should it be between the five RIRs and the portion of ICANN that currently performs the IANA service? Or the NRO, or the incorporated NRO? Should the document contain the SLAs or reference the SLA document? Step 3: We need to define a transparent process to review the monthly performance of the ICANN operator and its (in)ability to meet the SLAs and adhere to Global Policy. Step 4: We need a process for declaring the operator of the IANA service out of compliance. We also need a process for actions taken due to non-compliance including threatening to remove the contract, and removing the contract. Step 5: We need a process for modifying the SLAs. Step 6: We need to ensure our processes include the appropriate community interaction for reviewing the operations of IANA function, and how those measurements are taken, declaration of (non-)compliance, and changes to SLA metrics. ___Jason On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 2:07 PM, David Huberman < David.Huberman at microsoft.com> wrote: > Hello, > > As someone who very much wants to see the addressing function taken away > from ICANN and moved directly to the NRO, I'm not sure MONC is any more > useful than the NRO self-governing.

To some extent 4 may be required if 2 and 3 depend on ARIN staff, or ARIN board, or ARIN governance documentation, and not directly the membership. Scopes 5 and 6 are not directly impacted by the transition of NTIA oversight of the IANA function wrt number resources, but do relate to the larger question of removal of the NTIA over sight of IACNN and the ability of NTIA to pull the plug if things go wrong. I would argue we should do the following: 1. quickly document the SLAs 2. propose a straw-man for who holds the legal contract including or referencing the SLAs 3. document a process for modifying the SLA, transparently reporting of the SLA performance to the community 4. propose a straw-man for declaring (non-)compliance, and the actions taking up to and including removal of the contract 5. get community consensus on the straw-man for how holds the legal contract, and what is the process for declaring (non-)compliance and taking action. Complete this by the end of the month. Then while the CRIP team is working on unifying the outputs of the communities, we should focus in on the increasing scope. If the ARIN membership does not own the process for modifying the SLAs, judging (non-)compliance, and taking action, then is there the proper community oversight of those that do? (This needs to be complete prior to the go/no-go decision of moving forward with the transition) Then beyond that, does the ARIN membership have the proper oversight of ARIN in general, such as changes to the ARIN mission statement, changes to the ARIN bylaws, and recall of board members, etc. Then beyond that, does the RIR membership have the proper oversight of the ICANN Board wrt the ratification of Global Policy. Are we comfortable with the ability of the IACNN Board refusing to ratify a Global Policy and going to arbitration? Are we comfortable going to arbitration for every new Global Policy Proposal? Should there be some other ICANN Board oversight? (we need to be comfortable with these answers prior to the go/no-go decision of moving forward with the transition) Then if we solve all those issues, we can look more generally into the oversight of ICANN. ___Jason -- _______________________________________________________ Jason Schiller|NetOps|jschiller at google.com|571-266-0006 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

A more immediate question might be what needs to be done in the next couple of weeks before the CRISP group starts its formal work? Or to the members of the CRISP group from this region, what discussion do you still think needs to happen in this region before the global work starts?

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Bill, Over all I thought the presentation was good, and the community response also good. I think it is still a bit high level. I agree with slides 12 - 13, but I think the focus of those slides is melding each of the RIR's texts into a common text, and we are missing the part about our region putting forward our text. In the very short term, say the rest of this month, we need to craft the ARIN region text. There are a few decisions that have to be made, and I think the bottom-up, inclusive, transparent process should allow the community to weigh in and demonstrate the amount of consensus there is for support of the proposal, or specific aspects or questions. I think there are things that are fairly mechanical and non-controversial, like, get the staff to pull out all the relevant SLAs from the contract between the NTIA and ICANN for the IANA functions, the SLAs doc , the result of the consultation process on performance standards that occurred from Nov 20, 2012 through Feb 28, 2013, and the metrics ICANN reports on in section c293. Publish that in a doc. Report on progress, and make ongoing work on this doc available to the community. I think after staff completes that they should shift to: - a description of the communities use of the IANA function WRT Internet Number resources - what is the current global policy - where does global policy come from (what is the process) - how the GDPD is transparent, open, bottom-up and inclusive - What oversight mechanisms there are for global policy making - What over sight mechanisms are there for the operation of the IANA function I also think we as a community can agree we are only talking about Internet Number resources here. (I.e. which check box to tick in the RFP for 0. Proposal Type.) 1. The first question to answer is what legal vehicle should we use, an MoU, a services contract, something else? I'm not sure I care, but I think it should be discussed. I think legal should provide their assessment of concerns, and the community bring up any points, and consensus judged regarding one approach over another. Then Legal and the CRISP team go off and write one and present it back to the community. 2. The second question is who holds the legal document. Is it between the 5 RIRs and ICANN, the unincorporated NRO and ICANN, the incorporated NRO and ICANN, the unincorporated MONC and ICANN, the incorporated MONC and ICANN, someone else? I'm not sure I care, but I think it should be discussed, and consensus judged regarding one approach over another. 3. The third question is who can break the legal contract and pull back the IANA function wrt Internet Numbers, what is the process, and what input/oversight (directly or indirectly) does the membership have over it? I think this will be difficult, and a strawman in some slides might be good to start the conversation moving in the right direction. I haven't thought about it much, but it seems to me either 1. the community has a direct roll through some well defined process or 2. the RIRs as customers of the IANA function own this process and hold the operators of the IANA function accountable to deliver service, and the membership has input into this indirectly as customers of the RIRs and holding them accountable to deliver service. (this to some extent may depend on how can pull back the IANA function, and what the membership input is) In the indirect case what mechanisms does the membership have to turn the screws on the RIRs to get them to turn the screws on the operator of the IANA function? 4. The fourth question is if the current SLAs are good? If not what is the process to change them now? What is the process to change them in the future? And what level of input / oversight does the membership have? (this last question may depend in part on the answer to question 3 wrt direct / indirect membership involvement. 5. Does the current level of reporting of IANA operations line up with the SLAs? If not what additional reporting would we like to see? I also think there should be an active monthly review of the reports. We should define who does this. (that may in part depend on the answer to question 3 wrt direct / indirect membership involvement.) They should be responsible for reporting to the community. What is the process to declare (non-)compliance, and what level of oversight does the membership have over this? (again, that may in part depend on the answer to question 3). We should also consider what is coming out of the other regions: Do we like / dis-like / ambivalent to the idea on MONC? Personally, I'm not sure what this buys us other than another set of people. I think these people could easily sit inside the NRO say the Number Resource Oversight Committee (NRO OC). Creating another organization means another set of charting, operating procedures, answering questions of oversight of that body. I think working in existing bodies and leveraging current practices is better. I think to that extent that new bodies resemble existing ones and new processes mirror existing ones we have greater likelihood of success. Do we support an "Affirmation of Multistakeholder Model as defined as an "open, transparent, bottom up, inclusive process"? This doesn't sound bad to me. Maybe it helps tick a box on the ICG RFP? I think that gets us to an ARIN community document(s) hopefully in enought time for CRISP to do some writing, prior to Jan 15. I would then expect the CRISP team to take the common elements and put them into a shared document, and point out the areas of disagreement (and any insight if the positions of disagreeing communities are mutually exclusive and unlikely to be resolved). This should be shared with the communities. If there is time before 01/15, we should try to get consensus on some of these. If not, we should send this document to the ICG, and have the communities continue to work on a consensus position, and advise the ICG of on going developments. I think we should then shift gears to the accountability matrix, and over sight of each of the RIRs individually within their own memberships. Does another RIR have an oversight mechanism that we lack? Is the oversight sufficient? We should also consider ICANN Board accountability wrt Global policy ratification. Is going to arbitration sufficient? Or do we need more oversight wrt Global policy ratification? We should probably have that all sorted before the contract with NTIA is up. And if we have time, we can look at oversight of ICANN as a whole. This work can continue past the NTIA contract, but I think we have the greatest chance to positively impact this while the spotlight is shining (before the NTIA contract expires), and we should not squander this opportunity. Did I answer your question? If not please re-ask it. Thanks for your support on the CRISP team, __Jason On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 5:55 PM, Bill Woodcock wrote: > Worth reading: > > https://ripe69.ripe.net/presentations/139-IANA-CoopWG-RIPE69.pdf > > Thanks, Michael, for pointing out that link.

There was a consultation process on performance standards that occurred from Nov 20, 2012 through Feb 28, 2013. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/iana-kpis-2012-11-20-en The result of that consultation concluded that the IANA should provide a monthly report on key performance indicators, as well as data about request made and processed, and implementation of new global policy. https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/report-comments-iana-kpis-22apr13-en.pdf The archive of those reports can be found here: https://www.iana.org/performance/metrics You will want section c293 for the number resources part (append #c293 to any of the URLs in the archive to jump straight there) There was also some discussion about an unpublished "working" document that the IANA operators and RIRs traded back and forth. I'm not sure if that has any more detailed metrics then the previous documents, or the consultation process on performance standards, its results, and monthly reports that are currently available. If so, maybe John Curran, Leo Vegoda, Elise Gerich, or her predecessor can dig that up and would be willing to share it with the CRISP team as another input? If not, then I would point the community to the monthly metrics and ask if what they find in c293 sufficient? And if not what additional metrics / data would they like to see? ___Jason On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 6:16 PM, Bill Woodcock wrote: > Jason wrote: > > I understand the "real" SLAs are in this doc < > http://www.ntia.doc.gov/other-publication/2012/icann-proposal>. > > > No luck there.

Bill, I don't think I'm the David you were asking, but I'll comment any way. :) The only thing I would add to slides 12-14 is a framework for future changes, maybe based on the current CRISP/ICG Model. The point being on fairly short notice we had to spin up a process to put together a proposal for NTIA Oversight Transition. It would be rather naive to think there won't be additional future change of comparable scope that would necessitate similar community actions, maybe in another 5 or 10 years, who knows. I won't even speculate on what might necessitate or drive such a change, but having an agreed upon framework and knowing who is empowered to trigger it, would seem like prudent precautions. If such a framework had already existed many months may have been eliminated from the current process. I'm calling for a framework, because I would not want to tie our own future hands, but prepare our future selves with tools, leaving the choice of the appropriate tool to when the need arises.

In short the ARIN community needs to start shaping some actual text. I have tried to separate the non-controversial stuff out, like documenting the current state of things: - current SLAs - Internet Number related IANA services our community uses - What is the current Global Policy - Where does Global Policy come from - How the GDPD is transparent, open, bottom-up and inclusive - What are the oversight mechanisms for global policy making - What are the over sight mechanisms for the operation of the IANA function - and that the community agrees we are commenting in Internet Number Resources I think CRISP, and especially that RIR staff, can go off and put together text on this and as it becomes available share it with the community. (I expect the community will mostly just nod to this). I think the first two questions, 1. What type of legal document, and 2. between whom? Are fairly straight forward. I hope legal council can provide some advice, and after a short community discussion, the ARIN CRISP team should be able to tell where this community stands (and share with us where other communities stand in reference to this question). Are all types of legal documents acceptable, in which case we move towards where other communities are headed? Is one type preferred over another, but a short list of the ones that are acceptable? Is the community ambivalent and happy to defer to council? I'd say maybe a week discussion after we have the advice of council. Once we have an answer to question 1, council and CRISP can go off and write the document and share it with the community. Once we have an answer to question 2, we can pop the names in. 3. How pulling back the IANA function should work post NTIA transition, and what membership oversight there is for it, is completely new ground. I'd argue for CRISP to provide some slides as a starting point for discussion. Maybe slides in a weeks time, and assess where the discussion is 10 days after that? 4,5. is SLA stuff. Once we have the current SLAs, and the current list of IANA services the community uses, we can try to figure out if the SLAs are sufficient, if not modify them. This is maybe a week of discussion, then the CRIPS team can modify the consolidated SLA document to include feedback. We also need to determine the future process for changing the SLAs, and how to provide oversight of the quality of service, how to declare (non-)compliance , and what is the membership oversight. We can try and address these concerns once we pin down the SLAs, maybe 2 weeks? So timelines... If we want the ARIN output by 12/01 so CRISP have 45 days to assemble a single document... Current SLAs are published in a single doc by 11/17 Council publishes a list of legal documents by 11/17 comparing types of legal docs - contract for IANA services referencing an SLA - MoU - Legally binding SLA document - Something else?

A more immediate question might be what needs to be done in the next couple of weeks before the CRISP group starts its formal work?

I assume the decision to (threaten to) break the contract for the IANA service (or break the MoU or whatever legal document we have) would rest with someone or some body using some process. We need to sort out what body or person has that power, what is the process followed, and to what extend does the ARIN membership (and the memberships of the other RIRs) have input and or oversight into that process. Generally yes I mean "community" but when it comes to governance issues we have a history of using ARIN membership not ARIN community. As such I said membership to vaguely mean the ARIN membership (particular to this region's input) and the input of the members of the other 4 regions. Does that clarify it? Thanks for your service on the CRISP team, __Jason 3. How pulling back the IANA function should work post NTIA transition, and what membership oversight there is for it, is completely new ground. I'd argue for CRISP to provide some slides as a starting point for discussion. Maybe slides in a weeks time, and assess where the discussion is 10 days after that?

Thanks. On 11/13/14, 5:14 PM, "Jason Schiller" > wrote: John, You asked me to elaborate on what I meant by "pulling back the IANA function" and "membership" So right now NTIA has some ability to threaten to break, or actually break the contract for the IANA function, and award that to another organization. I assume the decision to (threaten to) break the contract for the IANA service (or break the MoU or whatever legal document we have) would rest with someone or some body using some process. We need to sort out what body or person has that power, what is the process followed, and to what extend does the ARIN membership (and the memberships of the other RIRs) have input and or oversight into that process. Generally yes I mean "community" but when it comes to governance issues we have a history of using ARIN membership not ARIN community. As such I said membership to vaguely mean the ARIN membership (particular to this region's input) and the input of the members of the other 4 regions. Does that clarify it? Thanks for your service on the CRISP team, __Jason 3. How pulling back the IANA function should work post NTIA transition, and what membership oversight there is for it, is completely new ground. I'd argue for CRISP to provide some slides as a starting point for discussion. Maybe slides in a weeks time, and assess where the discussion is 10 days after that? Not sure what you mean by ?pulling back? and not sure what membership you are talking about? Or do you just mean ?community oversight? ?

In short the ARIN community needs to start shaping some actual text. I have tried to separate the non-controversial stuff out, like documenting the current state of things: - current SLAs - Internet Number related IANA services our community uses - What is the current Global Policy - Where does Global Policy come from - How the GDPD is transparent, open, bottom-up and inclusive - What are the oversight mechanisms for global policy making - What are the over sight mechanisms for the operation of the IANA function - and that the community agrees we are commenting in Internet Number Resources I think CRISP, and especially that RIR staff, can go off and put together text on this and as it becomes available share it with the community. (I expect the community will mostly just nod to this). We will work with Michael to get this done I think the first two questions, 1. What type of legal document, and 2. between whom? Are fairly straight forward. I hope legal council can provide some advice, and after a short community discussion, the ARIN CRISP team should be able to tell where this community stands (and share with us where other communities stand in reference to this question). Again, we?ll work with Michael on this as well Are all types of legal documents acceptable, in which case we move towards where other communities are headed? Is one type preferred over another, but a short list of the ones that are acceptable? Is the community ambivalent and happy to defer to council? I'd say maybe a week discussion after we have the advice of council. Once we have an answer to question 1, council and CRISP can go off and write the document and share it with the community. Once we have an answer to question 2, we can pop the names in. 3. How pulling back the IANA function should work post NTIA transition, and what membership oversight there is for it, is completely new ground. I'd argue for CRISP to provide some slides as a starting point for discussion. Maybe slides in a weeks time, and assess where the discussion is 10 days after that?

Once we have the current SLAs, and the current list of IANA services the community uses, we can try to figure out if the SLAs are sufficient, if not modify them. This is maybe a week of discussion, then the CRIPS team can modify the consolidated SLA document to include feedback. Agree, this should not be that difficult We also need to determine the future process for changing the SLAs, and how to provide oversight of the quality of service, how to declare (non-)compliance , and what is the membership oversight. We can try and address these concerns once we pin down the SLAs, maybe 2 weeks? It is important to include this. As to the timeline below we?ll get a CRISP team call together to discuss and modify if needed. Thanks for taking the time to lay this out, it is very useful. -john So timelines...

A more immediate question might be what needs to be done in the next couple of weeks before the CRISP group starts its formal work? Or to the members of the CRISP group from this region, what discussion do you still think needs to happen in this region before the global work starts?

Page 2: "which is associated with" should be "which are associated with" since the previous noun was "zones" plural. Page 2: inconsistent capitalization of "Internet Number Resource Policies" throughout the document. So far I see: Internet number resource policies Internet Number Resource Policies Page 3: First full sentence. "describe the proposed global policy" doesn't agree in singular/plural with the preceding text. Perhaps replace "the proposed" with "a proposed" to denote that results occur when a policy is agreed upon? Page 3: Paragraph 3 - you defined ASO Advisory Council (ASO AC) and then in paragraph 3 keep mentioning ASO *Address* Council. I am not 100% sure, but don't you mean to use the defined initialism "ASO AC" in all instances of the third paragraph? Page 3: Paragraph 4: you can substitute "Regional Internet Registries" with the defined initialism RIR. This is true throughout the document - you may want to search-and-replace "Regional Internet Registries". Just an idea. Page 4: "The five are intimately familiar with..." I think this sentence is a run-on, as the second clause doesn't depend on the first clause. I'm not sure. Recommend breaking it into two different sentences, or at least using a semi-colon if you are expressing a singular idea. Substantive comment, not editorial: Page 5, the phrase "commensurate with current mechanisms" - I think this should be stricken. The paragraph goes on to define specific parameters. I think it's better to define all the parameters of the service levels and performance reporting, rather than rely on associations ("commensurate with") that aren't explicitly defined right there. Substantive comment: Page 5, third paragraph, starting with "While it has not been utilized". What is the purpose of this paragraph? In what way does reaffirmation by the RIRs of their commitment to these goals germane to this document? Page 5/6 transition - you've already defined this term, ASO AC.

I think the rest of this section is an attempt to address how such a function could be invoked and the oversight of such. It points to existing process, and existing oversight, and a commitment to the ASO-AC completing a review and making recommendations. I think this boils down to two points. 1. We have pretty good oversight (appropriate for the NTIA Requirements section) 2.

URL: From jschiller at google.com Fri Nov 21 12:48:42 2014 From: jschiller at google.com (Jason Schiller) Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 12:48:42 -0500 Subject: [Iana-transition] Draft of ARIN proposal for review and comments In-Reply-To: References: <1416584565243.35244@microsoft.com> Message-ID: attached word doc with edits and notes. Page 3 - paragraph starting "The Address Supporting Organization Advisory Council (ASO AC)" Noting David's edit that this should simply be Address Council. The paragraph suggests the the ASO AC reviews Global Policy Process to ensure significant viewpoints have been considered. Actually it does three things. 1. reviews Global Policy Process to ensure the process for each RIR has been followed 2. ensure significant viewpoints have been considered 3. in the event that non-identical policy is passed in each region, that the unified text is not substantively different that what the communities passed. -- Page 5 - "The agreement should have the IANA operator perform administration of the unallocated portions of the Internet number registries on behalf of the Regional Internet Registries and specify service levels and performance reporting commensurate with current mechanisms." I wonder what conclusion the community will draw from the text suggesting that the contract should include SLAs and performance reporting commensurate with current mechanisms. Does this suggest the current SLAs and reporting are adequate? I suspect the community does not know what the current SLAs are (although reporting is pretty clear). Does this instead suggest that ICANN is doing a fine job with the IANA operations WRT number resources, and the current SLAs and reporting may or may not be adequate, but we do not see addressing this as critical, we should keep the current structure in place for now, and modify it in the future. If we want to change the SLAs and reporting, should this require opening up and resigning the contract? Might it be better easier to change SLAs with a standalone living document, that he contract refers to? -- Open, Transparent, and Bottom-up I was expecting everywhere I saw "open" to also see transparent and bottom-up. Page 5 - paragraph starting "While it has not been utilized..." "the RIRs should reaffirm their commitment to open, transparent, [bottom-up,] and accountable global number policy." -- Page 5 - paragraph starting "While it has not been utilized..." Shouldn't this affirmation also be made to the RIR communities? Page 7 - point 1. "1. 1. Global number policy development which is open, transparent, and [bottom-up] to any and all participants." -- Page 5 - end of paragraph starting "While it has not been utilized..." and the next paragraph. I think an ASO AC review of RIR accountability is a good idea. The conclusion of this work should be supported by each of the communities, and implemented by the RIR prior to the transition of the NTIA contract. This should include a review of RIR governance. This should also include a review of the oversight of IANA functions WRT the contract with ICANN for the number related operations, and oversight of governance of ICANN WRT ratification of Global Policy Ratification. I expect this work would include a formal process for modification of IANA function SLA metrics and reporting, as well as a formal process of reviewing IANA operations reports and declaration of (non-)compliance, and appropriate community (or membership) oversight. ___Jason On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 11:25 AM, Jason Schiller wrote: > Comments in line, > > __Jason > > On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 10:42 AM, David Huberman < > David.Huberman at microsoft.com> wrote: > >> Channeling my inner Megan Kruse with grammar nitpicks, and also some >> substantive editorial comments: >> > I support all grammar fixes. > > >> >> Page 2: "which is associated with" should be "which are associated with" >> since the previous noun was "zones" plural. >> >> >> Page 2: inconsistent capitalization of "Internet Number Resource >> Policies" throughout the document.
