<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi,<br>
<br>
This is also what I read too. NTIA is pushing for a more bottom up
governance model from multi-stakeholder.<br>
I think this follows the line of US Government in the WCIT. I am
happy to see that. <br>

<div>The exact words from NTIA are the following:</div>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">… the U.S. Commerce Department’s National
Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) today
announces its intent to transition key Internet domain name
functions to the global multistakeholder community. As the
first step, NTIA is asking the Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers (ICANN) to convene global stakeholders to
develop a proposal to transition the current role played by NTIA
in the coordination of the Internet’s domain name system (DNS).

</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I understand that many will read to suggest NTIA is opening
the door for the creation of a new entity or to move the IANA
function away from ICANN, but I think they are instead focused
on how to replace <u>their</u> role, not ICANN’s.</div>

questions.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_extra">I don't know that the NTIA's
decided not to renew the contract with ICANN. My
understanding is that they have invited a
multistakeholder proposal for a new entity to take over
responsibility for the IANA functions, before the
current contract expires. That they find that proposal
acceptable is not assured. Whether the ICANN contract.
will be renewed - by NTIA or the new entity, if formed
in time - is yet to be determined.</div>
