[menog] Updates on the IANA Stewardship Transition

[Fahd Batayneh]

Friends and Colleagues,

 

As the IANA contract nears its expiration on 30 September 2016, there has
been a lot of media coverage and attention on the IANA Stewardship
Transition. Some coverage has been fair, while others have been misleading
and simply inaccurate. ICANN has developed two webpages that explain what
one needs to know about the IANA Stewardship Transition.

 

.         Five Things You Need to Know About the IANA Stewardship Transition
(here <https://www.icann.org/iana-transition-fact-sheet> ); and

.         Answering Some of Your Questions on the Stewardship Transition
(here <https://www.icann.org/iana-stewardship-questions> ).

 

Finally, Internet Society's (ISOC) CEO Kathryn Brown has published a piece
in The Hill where she shares a fare insight of what the transition is all
about. You can read her piece at
http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/technology/295021-inaccurate-rhetoric
-must-not-short-circuit-internet-transition.

 

And for those celebrating  Eid ul-Adha, Adha Mubarak!

 

Thank you,

 

Fahd Batayneh
