Second Draft of Numbers Community IANA Stewardship Proposal Published

Dear colleagues,

The Consolidated RIR IANA Stewardship Proposal (CRISP) team has published a second draft of the Internet numbers community proposal on the transition of the IANA stewardship. A final call for community feedback has been issued, with the CRISP team planning to submit the finalised proposal to the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) on Thursday, 15 January. 

The second draft of the proposal is available at: 
http://www.nro.net/crisp-proposal-second-draft

There is also a “redline version” that shows all changes made since the first draft:

The deadline for providing feedback is Monday, 12 January 2015. The CRISP team strongly encourages community members in favour of this proposal to express their support, either via the RIPE Cooperation Working Group mailing list or via the ianaxfer at nro.net mailing list, as demonstrated community support may be important later in the IANA stewardship transition process. 

Some of the key points to note in this second draft:
- Additional description on contract details, review committee and intellectual property rights
- Description revised on Section V. NITA Requirements and Section VI. Community Process for more clarity
- No changes to key elements of the proposal

The CRISP team timeline for the coming weeks is as follows:

	Second draft to be published:  	8 Jan 2015
	Second draft comments close: 	12 Jan 2015
	Final proposal to be sent to ICG: 	15 Jan 2015
