Dear friends and colleagues

Happy new year! I thought I would give you a brief update on what's been
happening at CRISP.

You will recall from my previous updates that on 19 December, the CRISP team
released the first draft response document for public consultation. A
revised document (with minor editing changes) was released on 24 December.
This document, when finalised after receiving community input, will be
submitted to the ICG on 15 January 2015, to meet the deadline set by the
ICG. The latest document can be accessed here: <1st Draft Proposal with
editorial changes  <https://www.nro.net/crisp-proposal-first-draft-1-1> >.

Since my last report, and over the Christmas/New Year break, the CRISP team
has met four times, for the duration of between one and two hours each time.
These meetings focus on discussing community inputs submitted to the NRO
IANAxfer mailing list, and in particular, canvassing the views of CRISP team
members and arriving at a position on each of these inputs. The inputs and
comments are on issues ranging from: intellectual property rights; the
duration of any contract with ICANN; how the review team (an idea
originating from LACNIC's MONC concept) will be composed. I must say that
Izumi Okutani, as chair of the CRISP team, is doing a sterling job
marshalling all the issues and team members. There is a spreadsheet which
tracks each of these inputs, with the CRISP team response. The spreadsheet
is constantly updated. The current version can be accessed here: <IANA xfer
summary discussion 04012015
<https://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/NRODiscussionList_20150104_CRISPinte
rnal.xlsx> >.

The deadline for the public to provide comments and inputs on the first
draft was yesterday. A second draft response document, incorporating
feedback from community comments, is scheduled to be released for public
consultation on 8 January. The public will then have another opportunity to
provide further inputs and comments until 12 January.

>From my perspective, the current draft response document is in relatively
good shape. None of the comments from the community feedback will, in my
view, significantly or substantially impact on the original framework of the
RIRs' proposal to ICG and NTIA. Whilst there may be some fine tuning and
refining of the draft response document, the key principles remain. That is:
* ICANN will continue to be the operator of the number resources part of the
IANA functions;
* The service specifications that ICANN will deliver to the RIRs will be
recorded in a document described as the IANA Service Level Agreement (SLA);
* The NRO will empanel a "Review Committee" (with a name to be decided),
which will be tasked with reviewing and reporting to the community and the
NRO, about whether ICANN has performed its obligations under the SLA to the
specified standards.
The APNIC CRISP team members will host a second community briefing session
later today, at 2:30pm Brisbane time. The first briefing session, held on 30
December, was only attended by five people. The link to join the WebEx
meeting this afternoon is available here: <Join WebEx meeting
