[IANAxfer@apnic] Draft IANA transition proposal, for APNIC 38 in Brisbane
Dear colleagues,
During APNIC38, there will be a Consultation Session on IANA stewardship transition to discuss the plan for IANA transition.
It is very important to gather the voices of the Asia-Pacific IP addressing community on this topic. During the last 10 years, the RIR communities have expressed strong support for community-lead coordination of IANA functions, and called for an end to the US government (or any governmental) role in ICANN matters. The recent announcement by the US government expressing their intent to step down as the only overseer of the IANA functions is an opportunity to complete a long envisaged transition process.
The APNIC Secretariat has produced a initial draft transition plan, for discussion during the consultation session.

We look forward to hearing your views, and discussing this proposal with the APNIC community.
Best regards,
Paul.
