Last week the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) met in Los 
Angeles to review and discuss public comments concerning the  
<https://www.ianacg.org/icg-files/documents/IANA-stewardship-transition-proposal-EN.pdf>
 Proposal to Transition the Stewardship of the Internet Assigned Numbers 
Authority (IANA) Functions [PDF, 2.07 MB]. Upon review of the comments 
received, the ICGdecided to continue advancing the proposal as planned, aiming 
to make  <http://t.co/rTV6179hO0> as much progress as possibleby the time of 
ICANN 54, scheduled for October 19-22. <x-apple-data-detectors://2> 

During its  
<https://www.ianacg.org/calls-for-input/combined-proposal-public-comment-period/>
 public comment period that concluded on September 8, the ICGreceived more than 
150 comments from a wide variety of stakeholders all over the world. The 
majority of the comments expressed support for the proposal. In some cases that 
support was qualified by suggestions, questions, and criticism that the ICG is 
working hard to synthesize and address as appropriate.

ICG members worked diligently before and during the Los Angeles meeting to 
assess the comments. The ICG divided the comments into categories (for example, 
those related to the Post-Transition IANA, the Root ZoneMaintainer, etc.) and 
for each category the ICG is examining whether the comments have already been 
addressed in the proposal development process, whether clarifications are 
needed from the ICG, or whether the ICG will pose questions or request 
clarifications from the operational communities. That work is ongoing and is 
expected to be finalized this week. ICG communications to the communities will 
request responses by mid-October to allow the ICG to prepare in advance of 
ICANN54.

The ICG's decision to adhere to its planned timeline as much as possible 
without sacrificing quality for speed is notable in light of indications that 
the work in Work Stream 1 of the Cross-Community Working Group on Enhancing 
ICANN's Accountability (CCWG) is likely to be delayed. The ICGis closely 
following the work of the CCWG and expects to have more clarity about the 
trajectory of the CCWG's work after that group meets at the end of this week.

The ICG's aggressive work schedule will be carried out via  
<https://www.ianacg.org/calendar/icg-events/> phone conferences and meetings 
which, as always, will be open to silent observers. The next ICGconference call 
is scheduled for  
<https://www.ianacg.org/icg-announces-upcoming-conference-calls-2/> 23 
September at 11:00 UTC.

Finally, we chairs want to recognize in these busy days the hard work not only 
done by the communities, but our ICGmembers, our secretariat and ICANNstaff 
helping to ensure that we can move forward as effectively as we are.
