The ICANN community and staff continue to work hard to ensure that all necessary tasks are completed and the proposals can be implemented in a timely manner in advance of 30 September 2016 to allow the IANA functions contract to expire.

Last Friday, ICANN submitted a report to NTIA that stated: “All required tasks specified in NTIA’s 9 June 2016 letter are complete, and all other tasks in support of the transition are either in a final review stage or awaiting approval, which will be complete in advance of 30 September 2016 to allow the IANA functions contract to expire.”

ICANN is confident that everything will be implemented in advance of 30 September 2016 to allow the IANA functions contract to expire.
