Following the request of the National Telecommunications and Information
Administration (NTIA), an agency of the U.S Department of Commerce, for
ICANN to "convene a multistakeholder process to develop a plan to
transition the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the IANA
Functions and related root zone management, a Cross Community Working Group
(CWG-Stewardship) was formed with the purpose of developing a consolidated
transition proposal for the elements of the IANA Functions relating to
domain names.

The CWG-Stewardship held briefing webinars on the first draft proposal on
3-4 December 2014, and subsequently received nearly 60 public comments.
Following the close of the public comment period, the CWG-Stewardship
reviewed the comments and continued to work at an intense pace to prepare
its transition proposal, through more than 30 teleconferences, a working
session at ICANN 52 in Singapore in February, a face-to-face meeting in
Istanbul in March and, most recently, during a two-day meeting block with
over 12 hours of conferences to converge on the 2nd draft proposal.

With the aim to submit its final proposal to the IANA Stewardship
Transition Coordination Group (ICG) by the close of ICANN 53 in June, the
CWG-Stewardship highlights the importance of broader community input of
their draft, for which the group has received independent legal counsel for
structural considerations and external expertise to bolster operational
sections.

The CWG-Stewardship will hold two identical webinars at different times to
facilitate participation across time zones. The webinars will take place on:

   - *24 April from 06:00 – 07:30 UTC* (time zone converter here
