The IANA contract between NTIA and ICANN has expired.<br>

(assigning IP addresses and ASNs to RIRs, and some related
tasks) in terms of a contract between the RIRs and ICANN,
instead of in terms of a contract between the NTIA and ICANN.
ICANN asked for permission to sub-contract the IANA Numbering
Services to PTI, and the RIRs consented, so the IANA functions
will actually be performed by PTI, although ICANN remains
responsible.<br>

<p dir="ltr">This is positive progress and indeed great news for
the diverse internet community at large.</p>
<p dir="ltr">What we can all be proud of here is the entire
process that was inclusive and indeed made this transition
possible.</p>
<p dir="ltr">As we can all imagine now, "oversight" is community
oriented and the multistakeholder bottom-up process of
inclusiveness bred good governance and leadership to make this
great achivement possible.</p>
<p dir="ltr">We as the AFRNIC community ought to borrow a leaf
from this as we continue to develop the African Internet.</p>
