[rpd] Fwd: [IANAtransition] Transition from mailing list to web-based platform

Wed Jul 9 05:32:35 UTC 2014

Hello Seun

> On another note, at the last AFRINIC public meeting, there was an agreement to create a list dedicated to discuss IANA stewards transition issues locally. Whats the status of creating that list?

I am forwarding the mail (see below)  that was sent on some mailing list regarding the IANA Oversight Transition.

You will have all information pertaining to the page that has been created on the AFRINIC website on the IANA Stewardship Transition and the
dedicated mailing list.

Best regards

> 
> As followup to our consultation in Djibouti during AIS’2014 we are launching a discussion online related the IANA stewardship transition. This mailing list provides a place for the African Internet community to discuss all matters relating to the IANA Oversight Transition process.
> 
> On 14 March 2014, the US Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced the intention to transition the oversight of key Internet functions, including the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), to the global Internet multi-stakeholder community. 
> 
> http://www.ntia.doc.gov/press-release/2014/ntia-announces-intent-transition-key-internet-domain-name-functions
> 
> The NTIA has asked ICANN to convene all stakeholders to develop a proposal to transition the current role played by NTIA in the coordination of the Internet’s domain name and number system. As one of IANA's key stakeholders, it is crucial that the AFRINIC community discusses and formulates effective input for submission into the oversight transition proposal in order to ensure that Africa and the Indian Ocean region's unique needs are taken into consideration. 
> 
> You can find out more information about the oversight transition process, community consultations taking place throughout the region and beyond, and important dates and deadlines in our dedicated section on the AFRINIC website:

> www.afrinic.net/en/community/iana-oversight-transition
> 
> All the 4 other RIRs will run a similar process and our hope is to be able to converge toward a common proposal that will be submitted to the ICANN process. 
> 
> To participate in the discussions, please subscribe to the IANA Oversight mailing list at https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/ianaoversight
> 
> I am looking forward to discussing this important milestone in the development of the global Internet with you all.

There are things that ICANN does not necessarily need to be told, this is a very minor issue that they seem to want to be blowing beyond proportion.
