Lise Fuhr: Audio good here

 

Russ Housley: Okay, I will drop and reconnect

 

Nathalie Vergnolle: Everyone has scrolling rights to look at the document

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): The NRO is an unincorporated organization consisting of the five RIRs.  The NRO makes decisions only by unanimous consent of the five CEOs/Esecutive Directors of the RIRs.

 

Russ Housley 2: @Greg:  The NRO is not a legal enityt

 

Greg Shatan: Under California law, an unincorporated association can be considered as a legal entity with minor actions.

 

Eduardo Jimenez (LACNIC´s Counsel): Number Resource Organization

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): NRO - Numbers Resource Organization

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): www.nro.net

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): Fine with one CCG co-chir being required to notify the entire CCG

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): (sorry, NRO = Number Resource Organization (singular Number, not plural Numbers)

 

Ray Pelletier: CCG is to work out its own operating proccedures

 

Alissa Cooper 2: +1, those are TBD but we do not need to resolve those this week

 

andrew sullivan: +1

 

Athina Fragkouli: The RIRs can only exercise their rights and/or powers under this Agreement by acting collectively and unanimously.

 

andrew sullivan: I think consistency with other docs seems good

 

Alan Barrett (AFRINIC): the text Athina pasted is from section 3.3 of the SLA between RIRs and ICANN for the IANA Numbers Service

 

Ray Pelletier: I'd like to see language, wasn't clear

 

Athina Fragkouli: @Ray I will post it now

 

Lise Fuhr: @Athina thank you wasn't clear to me either

 

Athina Fragkouli: This is the suggested alternative text:

 

Athina Fragkouli: The CCG co-chair representing an Operational Community shall have theright to notify the IETF Trust of the termination of the serviceagreement between the relevant Operational Community and thethen-current IANA Operator with respect to such Operational Community’sdesignated IANA Service.

 

Athina Fragkouli: no worries, thank you

 

Greg Shatan: Agree with Josh.  It basically goes without saying, but no harm in saying it, especially if there's any impression that the CCG members might do otherwise (act on their own initiative).

 

andrew sullivan: Agree with the possibility of putting off naming CCG

 

Alissa Cooper 2: agree with greg, could be tough timing-wise

 

Lise Fuhr: Agree

 

Greg Shatan: I'm beginning to feel like a Futurist....

 

Lise Fuhr: Support to remove before PC

 

Greg Shatan: We could get rid of it and still choose the CCG reps befdore its signed.

 

Josh Hofheimer (Sidley): +1 Greg

 

Greg Shatan: Good

 

Josh Hofheimer (Sidley): The "IANA Naming Functions Agreement" would be the appropriate term, and includes underlying SLAs

 

Ray Pelletier: @Greg draft language

 

Ray Pelletier: +1 Greg

 

Ted Hardie: Are we going to have this draft displayed?

 

Jorge Contreras: @Ted - draft still has some wrinkles - will be distributed later today incorporating feedback from this call

 

andrew sullivan: I can send a draft today

 

andrew sullivan: to the list

 

Russ Housley 2: Plan seems fine to me

 

Samantha Eisner: Who can add me to the email list?

 

Josh Hofheimer (Sidley): Alissa - Do you want to consider making Wednesday a 2-hour call?

 

andrew sullivan: @Sam: according to Jorge, he got a note that you have been added already

 

Alissa Cooper 2: if people think we need it, sure

 

Samantha Eisner: @Andrew, great.  Thanks.

 

andrew sullivan: Better to make it 2 hours and go shorter than the converse

 

Samantha Eisner: Confirmed

 

Jari Arkko (2nd device): i'm ok for the extension

 

Athina Fragkouli: OK by me

 

scott bradner: i will miss the wed call altogether (previous commitment)

 

Jari Arkko (2nd device): I think the IAB call ends 30min before the scheduled start of the weds call.

 

Jorge Contreras: I can go later indefninitely, but only 30 minutes earlier due to prior commitments
