Other comments on the draft charter:
The section on "Relationship to ICANN Accountability Review Process" is very important. Here you need to introduce a distinction between ICANN as policy development authority and related actions (enforcement, contracting, etc.) and IANA as implementer of policy. This makes it possible to then say that the CCWG is concerned about the accountability of the implementation function rather than the policy development function, although both processes are related. In terms of how the relationship between the two accountability processes is conceived and described, the language agreed by the ICG could serve as a useful model:
"The IANA stewardship transition process is taking place alongside a parallel and related process on enhancing ICANN accountability. While maintaining the accountability of Internet identifier governance is central to both processes, this group's scope is focused on the arrangements required for the continuance of IANA functions in an accountable and widely accepted manner after the expiry of the NTIA-ICANN contract. Nevertheless, the two processes are interrelated and interdependent and should appropriately coordinate their work."
I see there are some people on the CCWG who want to erect a barrier between these two processes. Good to see that you and Becky Burr are challenging that.
Section 3 should contain a reference to the timeline of the ICG and express some intent to coordinate with its requests for proposals and its timeline.

Dear all,
Please find included the draft agenda for the DT meeting Monday 28 July,
13.00 UTC.
Kind regards,
Bart
*Draft Agenda*
1. Welcome and roll-call
2. Confirmation of meeting notes and action items (included in Annex A) 3. Timeline Approval of charter and call/appointment of volunteers WG
(In order to adopt charter in time, organize membership of the WG
itself and have a first full-blown face to face meeting in LA, the
draft charter needs to be completed by 14 August, order of approval
will be ccNSO( 21 August), ALAC ( 26 August), SSAC ( 2 September)
and GNSO ( 4 September) , see Annex B)) 4. Timelines and coordination with ICG 5. Run-through latest version of draft charter 6. AOB 7. Closure
*Annex A Meeting notes and action items DT meeting 21 July* */Notes / Action Items 21/7/*
* ICG timeline is still tentative and will need to be further
discussed and considered by ICG - issues such as public comment and
consultation has not been factored in
* Outreach / education needed on how naming relationship with IANA
differs from other communities which may also be reflected in
proposals that will eventually be submitted
* Not the role of the ICG to develop proposals or choose from
competing proposals according to charter
* Draft timeline does not allow for resolution of possible issues or
testing, incl. no transition window
/*Composition of ccWG*/
* Members (from chartering organizations)- consider keeping it
relatively small to ensure being able to make progress (min. 2, max
3-5 from each chartering organization). Observers - consider leaving
it open (can participate in conversations, but not responsible for
getting the work done).
* SO/AC/SG/C should consider opening up their processes so that others
interested could also join as members who are not necessarily formal
members of SO/AC/SG/C
* Should this CWG redirect any requests from other communities to
participate to their respective groups?
* Proposal to have chartering organizations have min. 2, max of 5 of
representatives on the CWG. Open to observers from all communities.
Make CWG operations as transparent and open as possible for all,
both with regard to F2F as well as online meetings.
* Observers can provide input, but should decisions need to be made,
only named members can provide input at that stage. - make sure to
clarify this in the charter
*/Public consultations/*
* At least one, if not two public comment forums
/*Involvement of the GAC*/
* Reach out to the GAC and re-invite them (noting renewed committment
to participate in community efforts following increase in GAC
membership in ICG)
/*Development of workplan and timelines*/
* Consider how to provide feedback to ICG on timeline (end of year
deadline may not be feasible)
* Consider having input ready following ICANN meeting in Marrakech as
a possible alternative - what are other possible milestones in
interim timeframe? Consider providing that feedback to ICG.
* Should work on development of charter be done in parallel with
initial work of CWG or does charter need to be approved first? Might
be difficult for CWG to commence without charter nailed down. Maybe
some of the administrative elements could be commenced earlier, but
the substantive work can only begin once the charter has been approved.
* Staff to develop draft timeline for public consultations by next
week's meeting
/*Charter*/

* The focus is on names but will not be limited exclusively to names.
