Chat:

  Yuko Green:Hi everybody, welcome to IANA IPR follow-up call!

  Jonathan Robinson:We do not have scroll rights on the doc in the Adobe

  Yuko Green:I just released the scroll rights

  Jonathan Robinson:Thank you Yuko

  Greg Shatan:Sorry to be delayed.

  Greg Shatan:TBD has been incorrporated as Technical Buyers of Domains, Inc.

  Alissa Cooper:lulz

  Jonathan Robinson:@Greg. Good point. I had converged Names Community and Names Services in my thinking.

  Josh Hofheimer (Sidley):There is nothing for the Names Community to sign in this document.

  Greg Shatan:Understood, but we still need to say who they are....

  Greg Shatan:or who we are.

  Greg Shatan:Since it's not a notice that needs to come from a signatory party, there's a little more flexibility in saying who taht is.

  Alan Barrett:how wrong would it be to say Names Community = {some list of ICANN subsets, including at least ccNSO + gNSO}

  Jonathan Robinson:@Alan. Discussion along those lines took place today but it is not settled e.g. there are a reasonable number of ccTLDs outside of the ccNSO

  Greg Shatan:Whoever it is, is only the messenger.

  Ted Hardie:@Jonathan would it be fair to say that they are "that portion of the Name Community that picks the representives for CCG"?

  Ted Hardie:Name/Names

  Jonathan Robinson:@Ted. Possibly but work in progress

  andrew sullivan:Ok here

  andrew sullivan:Yeah, we could definitely do an interim thing in time

  andrew sullivan:I agree

  Ted Hardie:Sorry, the mic claims it is live; I will log out and long back in

  andrew sullivan:I think that my main point was in line with what Jari is suggesting

  andrew sullivan:It doesn't seem to me that there'll be any thing actually to do on day 1

  Jonathan Robinson:@Alissa. Got it. Thank-you

  Ted Hardie:I think interim is the wrong formulation.

  Ted Hardie:I think we can make appointments, and set deadlines for new appointments

  Greg Shatan:"Initial"?

  andrew sullivan:we don't need to set such deadlines, though

  andrew sullivan:because the communities can remove and replace as they want

  Ted Hardie:If need be, I believe the IETF/IAB can do that.

  Jari Arkko:fwiw I am happy with the interim approach, certainly could be done from IETF side.

  Jonathan Robinson:Andrew faded for me too

  andrew sullivan:Sorry.  My point was just that I thought we'd decided this in

  andrew sullivan:the earlier principles discussion

  andrew sullivan:and I am not sure why we want to reopen it

  andrew sullivan:none here

  Jonathan Robinson:OK with me

  Ray Pelletier:concur

  Ted Hardie:No objections

  Greg Shatan:Indubitably.

  Jonathan Robinson:Thursday this type of time typically follows CWG meeting so names are "up to date"

  Jonathan Robinson:Thanks all

  Ray Pelletier:at first meeting CCG to adopt procedures

  andrew sullivan:thanks!  Bye all

  Ted Hardie:Thanks, bye all

  Alan Barrett:thanks
