[arin-announce] Remote Participation on Topics of Interest at ICANN 50

[ARIN]

ICANN 50 is currently underway in London, UK.  This is the largest ICANN 
meeting to date with over 3,000 registered participants.  This is in no 
small part due to the important discussions taking place on a variety of 
topics.  Two relevant sessions for the ARIN community include "Enhancing 
ICANN Accountability" and "Transition of NTIA's Stewardship of the IANA 
Functions" While NTIA has announced an intention to transition the 
stewardship of the IANA functions to the global Internet community, it 
is now necessary for all stakeholders to work together to develop a plan 
for this important transition.

I urge you to take the time to listen in and participate remotely in 
both of these sessions.  As part of the larger Internet ecosystem, the 
ARIN community needs to have a strong voice in these discussions.

Both sessions will be held on 26 July.

Enhancing ICANN Accountability: 10:30 – 12:30 BST
Transition of NTIA 's Stewardship of the IANA Functions - 1:30 – 330 BST

Direct links to the webcast and remote participation will be available 
when you expand the menu for the session in the "Happening Now" box at

There is no registration required for remote participation.
