US Government announcement on IANA Globalization – Statement by the CENTR General Assembly
“The CENTR community acknowledges the statement by the United States Government in relation to the transition of the IANA stewardship.
The CENTR ccTLD community believes that IANA should be managed through an open, transparent and consistent multistakeholder model in which ccTLDs should continue to be actively involved.
In the long standing tradition of valuable and constructive cooperation with IANA, the ccTLDs will closely monitor IANA’s responsiveness, stability and reliability in delivering its technical and administrative service at the highest standard.
It is crucial that IANA remains accountable to the community it serves.”
CENTR, as one of the four ccTLD Regional Organisations, is committed to the dialogue within the I* group of organisations responsible for coordination of the different parts of the Internet technical infrastructure to finalize a proposal to progress the transition.
