Thanks Aziz
With the suggestion "IANA and ICANN accountability transition - Africa 
perspective" what do we intend to discuss. 
The above theme should have been before the conclusion or submission.
So now that it has been submitted and under consideration/implementation can we 
look at  "IANA and ICANN accountability transition - implications to Africa or 
impact on Africa"

Dear all,
As we have done during the previous ICANN meetings, we will be holding a joint 
AFRALO/AfrICANN meeting to discuss issues or subjects of interest to our region 
at the scheduled ICANN 57 meeting in Hyderabad, which takes place from 03-09 
November 2016. The theme proposed by the members of AFRALO will be again "IANA 
and ICANN accountability transition - Africa perspective"
The purpose of this message is to ask you to please, validate this theme or 
propose a different one that you think is most pertinent.
We are also looking forward for presentation of a “joint statement” to the 
attention of ICANN Board at the end of this meeting. 
We would appreciate your proposal be sent within a week (before 21 September 
2016). 
Please note that beyond a week, if we do not receive any proposal, the 
leadership of AFRALO will constitute a drafting committee that will decide the 
theme and propose to the Community a draft statement to ICANN. This statement 
will be discussed at the meeting in Hyderabad.
The subject chosen should be relevant to the interest of two organizations: 
AfrICANN and AFRALO. It should be noted that the interest of this tradition, 
which we organize together since 2010, is to express the point of view of the 
African ICANN community on current issues of interest to the ICANN community.

Best Regards
Aziz Hilali
AFRALO Chair

Chers tous,
Comme nous l'avons fait au cours des précédentes réunions de l'ICANN, nous 
allons organiser à Hyderabad la réunion conjointe AFRALO/AfrICANN et qui aura 
lieu du 03 au 09 Novembre 2016, pour débattre d’une question ou d’un sujet 
d'intérêt pour notre région. Le thème proposé par les membres d’AFRALO est, à 
nouveau "Transition des fonctions IANA et Redevabilité de l'ICANN, Perspectives 
pour l’Afrique".
Le but de ce message est de vous demander de bien vouloir valider ce thème ou 
en proposer un autre que vous pensez être plus pertinent. 
Cette réunion aboutira à la présentation d'une "déclaration commune" à 
l’attention du Conseil d’administration de l'ICANN. Nous apprécierions que la 
proposition de thème soit envoyée dans une semaine (avant le 21 Septembre 2016).
Veuillez noter qu'au-delà d'une semaine, si nous ne recevons pas de proposition 
; la direction d’AFRALO constituera un comité de rédaction qui décidera du 
thème et proposera à la communauté un projet de déclaration à l’intention de 
l'ICANN. Cette déclaration sera discutée à la réunion de Hyderabad.
Le sujet choisi devra avoir l’approbation des deux listes AfrICANN et Afralo. 
Il est à noter que l'intérêt de cette tradition que nous organisons ensemble 
depuis Bruxelles, est d'exprimer le point de vue de la communauté africaine de 
l'ICANN sur les questions d'actualité et d'intérêt pour la communauté de 
l'ICANN.

Cordialement
Aziz Hilali
Président d’AFRALO

[AfrICANN-discuss] US Congress Hearing to Examine Internet Governance Transition today

2016-09-14 Thread Dawit Bekele
Hi all,

As you might have already heard, today, there will be a hearing by the US 
congress to " Examine Internet Governance Transition". This hearing has been 
scheduled by Sen. Ted Cruz who is leading a group of GOP congresspersons who 
are questioning the IANA transition process at this very critical time since 
the contract between the US Commerce Department's National Telecommunications 
and Information Administration (NTIA) and ICANN is set to expire on September 
30 and the structures proposed by the ICG should take over the oversight of 
IANA functions. Some conservative circles are calling for a delay in the 
transition or no transition at all which is a very dangerous prospect and we 
hope the congress with not take  a decision that will harm the IANA transition 
process that has had bi-partisan support.

For more information on Internet Society's position on this critical issue, 
please read the following positions from Internet Society VP Policy and CEO :
