    1. Status of open actions

Action # 0206-02 JC
Post responses to ICANN evolution and reform report to the ASO list. [On-going]

Chair asked for any other actions. There were none.

    1. RFC 2050

Mark McFadden, WGC of the 2050 WG, was called at 22:30 UTC. He stated that the proposal was to create 7 docs in a new series to replace RFC 2050. He stated that there are 23 volunteers from every continent but sub-Saharan Africa. They were divided into 4 groups of editing teams. Volunteers have been assigned to two of three documents drafted to be edited. Mark is hoping to have drafts available by the ARIN meeting in late October.

PW asked if there was a web page available to check on the status of this effort. Mark said there is not, but had made the commitment to have updates at the public policy meetings. He agreed it was a very good idea to create a web page.

The Chair then asked the SEC if he could host such a web page. SEC then asked if it should be an RIR or an ASO web page. The Chair asked the SEC to discuss this question with other the RIRs to decide the appropriate place. She then asked Mark if he could have a status report by the next RIPE or ARIN meetings. Mark stated that he would supply a presentation to HPH to present at some point at the next RIPE meeting. Mark offered to update the AC during their scheduled calls at any time.

The Chair asked for any other questions. There were none.

RIR Discussion Update

RP stated that the RIRs are issuing a strongly written statement in next several weeks to ICANN noting that their comments have not been addressed by ICANN.

The Chair asked RP what is expected to happen after ICANN’s next meeting. RP stated that the MoU between ICANN and Department of Commerce expires at the end of September. RP stated that he did not know if it was going to be extended as there had been no announcement. ICANN has been making reports to the Department of Commerce and that the ICANN Board is expected to act on the reform proposal at the next ICANN meeting.

RP suggested that the AC make statement that they have observed ICANN’s lack of response to the RIRs and question why.

The AC supported this suggestion. ED motioned that the ASO draft a letter to the ICANN Board and Reform Committee questioning the lack of response to the concerns raised by the RIRs and why. HPH seconded. ED stated he would draft the letter within the week. Roll call was taken and all were in favor.

IPv6 Issues

CJW provided an update on her presentation at the IPv6 workshop where University of California campuses were represented, and they built a network w/IPv6. She used RP’s slides on the new policies to give the presentation. She stated that the audience was upset by the fact that any campuses can apply and get address space. They felt that an entity’s v6 space should come from the same supplier as their v4 space. CJW urged the audience to participate in the policy process.

ASO AC Time of Call Change

The SEC was asked to look into changing the time of the AC call to BST or London Time. Many AC members use a date and time website to determine what their local time is compared to the UTC time of the calls. The SEC stated that he could not locate a local lookup for the AC. He sent a message to list suggesting 21:00 UTC for 6 months of the year, and 22:00 UTC for the remaining six months. It was decided that the SEC post the ‘as proposed’ dates and times of the ASO AC calls for the next 12 months to the AC.

    1. Adjournment

The Chair called for adjournment at 22:58 UTC. ED moved to adjourn and this was seconded by HPH. The motion passed unanimously.
