[AfrICANN-discuss] The Internet Society remains fully committed to the timely IANA Stewardship Transition

[Betel Hailu]

Dear all,

I would like to draw your attention to an article by the Internet Society President and CEO, Kathy Brown, that was published today on The Hill under the title " Inaccurate rhetoric must not short-circuit internet transition<http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/technology/295021-inaccurate-rhetoric-must-not-short-circuit-internet-transition>".

Its publication comes at a key moment: On September 30, the contract between the US Commerce Department's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is set to expire.

Regards,
Betel
