Dear colleagues,
The second consultation on the revised draft “Governance Document for the
Recognition, Operation, and Derecognition of Regional Internet Registries” (RIR
Governance Document) intended to replace Internet Coordination Policy 2 (ICP-2)
has officially concluded.
A consultation on the first version of the draft document was held from 14
April to 27 May 2025, and the feedback received from that process was used to
inform the current revisions. The second consultation was held from 28 August
to 7 November 2025, and provided another opportunity for the community to
review and provide feedback on the revised draft.
Each RIR hosted at least one interactive informational session for their
community during this period, with additional sessions also held for ICANN
communities. An ICANN Public Comment process was conducted at the same time. A
list of all sessions and their archives
<https://www.nro.net/policy/internet-coordination-policy-2/community-engagement/>
(https://www.nro.net/policy/internet-coordination-policy-2/community-engagement/)
is available on the NRO website. The consultation asked more specifically for
feedback on whether the revised draft addressed questions and concerns with the
first draft.
The NRO NC, which fulfils the role of the Address Supporting Organization
Address Council (ASO AC), will now review the feedback received from both the
RIR communities and the ICANN Public Comment process during this second
consultation. This feedback will be used to determine whether further
amendments and community consultation are required as part of the process to
update ICP-2.
The NRO NC thanks everyone who participated and provided feedback during these
consultations.
On behalf of the NRO Number Council
