Name:  Zhong  Rui  Organization:  Internet  Society  of  China      Submission  ID:  95        Questions  Concerning  the  Proposal  as  a  Whole  1) Completeness  and  clarity:  Is  the  combined  proposal  complete?  Each  of  the  operational  community  proposals  contains  aspects  to  be  completed  in  the  future  when  the  proposal  is  implemented.  Is  the  combined  proposal  specified  in  sufficient  detail  such  that  it  can  be  evaluated  against  the  NTIA  criteria?              2) Compatibility  and  interoperability:  Do  the  operational  community  proposals  work  together  in  a  single  proposal?  Do  they  suggest  any  incompatible  arrangements  where  compatibility  appears  to  be  required?  Is  the  handling  of  any  conflicting  overlaps  between  the  functions  resolved  in  a  workable  manner?              3) Accountability:  Do  the  operational  community  proposals  together  include  appropriate  and  properly  supported  independent  accountability  mechanisms  for  running  the  IANA  functions?  Are  there  any  gaps  in  overall  accountability  under  the  single  proposal?              4) Workability:  Do  the  results  of  any  tests  or  evaluations  of  workability  that  were  included  in  the  operational  community  proposals  conflict  with  each  other  or  raise  possible  concerns  when  considered  in  combination?              Questions  Concerning  NTIA  Criteria      5) Do  you  believe  the  proposal  supports  and  enhances  the  multiple-­‐stakeholder  model?  If  yes,  please  explain  why.  If  not,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.              6) Do   you   believe   the   proposal   maintains   the   security,   stability,   and   resiliency   of   the   DNS?   If   yes,   please  explain  why.  If  not,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.                  7) Do  you  believe  the  proposal  meets  the  needs  and  expectations  of  the  global  customers  and  partners  of  the  IANA  services?  If  yes,  please  explain  why.  If  not,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.  Please  indicate  if  you  are  a  customer  or  partner  of  the  IANA  services.              8) Do  you  believe  the  proposal  maintains  the  openness  of  the  Internet?  If  yes,  please  explain  why.  If  not,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.              9) Do  you  have  any  concerns  that  the  proposal  is  replacing  NTIA's  role  with  a  government-­‐  led  or  inter-­‐governmental  organization  solution?  If  yes,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.  If  not,  please  explain  why.              10) Do  you  believe  that  the  implementation  of  the  proposal  will  continue  to  uphold  the  NTIA  criteria  in  the  future?  If  yes,  please  explain  why.  If  not,  please  explain  why  and  what  proposal  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.              Questions  Concerning  ICG  Report  and  Executive  Summary      11) Do  you  believe  the  ICG  report  and  executive  summary  accurately  reflect  all  necessary  aspects  of  the  overall  proposal?  If  not,  please  explain  what  modifications  you  believe  are  necessary.        General  Questions  12) Do  you  have  any  general  comments  for  the  ICG  about  the  proposal?          The  Internet  Society  of  China  (ISC)  is  extremely  grateful  for  the  fruitful  work  of  ICG  and  various  communities,  offering  congratulations  on  the  successful  integration  of  operational  communities'  proposals  and  extending  thanks  to  ICANN  for  providing,  in  such  a  timely  manner,  the  Chinese  version  of  the  proposal  and  the  Chinese  commentary  channel.    
ISC  learns  from  the  domain  name  proposal  that  PTI  Board  members  would  be  assigned  by  ICANN,  but  it  has  not  yet  seen  more  detailed  PTI  board  member  selection  rules.  Moreover,  there  is  a  lack  of  description  for  the  decision-­‐making  mechanisms  and  processes  of  this  board  of  directors.  Therefore,  we  suggest  that  improvements  on  the  aspects  above  be  made  in  the  follow-­‐up  work.    
The  objectives  of  the  IANA  function  review  team  include  assessing  the  performance  of  IANA  function  operators  and  any  related  oversight  or  supervisory  bodies,  and  the  improvements  need  to  be  made.  However,  in  regard  to  what   kinds   of   measurements   or   principles   should   be   taken   to   promote   and   safeguard   and   ensure   that   these  suggestions  for  improvement  can  be  put  into  effect,  there  is  a  lack  of  clear  description  in  this  proposal.    
These  two  comments  above  are  for  reference  only.  Again,  we  appreciate  and  commend  the  work  of  ICG  and  communities!
