===Coordination Group Members===
<blockquote>The five nominees that the GAC has identified or put forward to participate are dformed within the GAC as what we are calling a content group. So that's also including the vice chairs in addition to those nominees. And the idea is so the vice chairs and the nominees support the chair of the GAC and to coordinate communication to and from the broader GAC membership. The emphasis here is not on advancing individual country perspectives.<ref name="london1">[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/transcript-coordination-group-17jul14-en.pdf ICANN Archive - Transcript, ICG Meeting #1 (Day 1)], July 17, 2014</ref></blockquote>

The Coordination Group was formed by the ICANN community via nominations from 13 community groups, along with an ICANN Board Liaison and an ICANN staff expert, totaling 31 individuals:
During discussions at the first day of the meeting, it was agreed that the CG would welcome all five of the GAC appointees, bringing the grand total of seats to 30.<ref name="london1" />

==ICANN 53 Announcement==

* '''[[ALAC]]''': '''[[Mohamed El Bashir]] (Vice Chair)''', [[Jean-Jacques Subrenat]]
At the ICANN 53 Welcome Session, June 22 2015, CEO & President, Fadi Chehadé presented his keynote speech which focused on the IANA Transition and its progress. In his opening remarks, Chehadé outlined three important areas of focus: 1. Strengthening ICANN and preparing it for the transition, 2. Fortifying community support, and 3. Reinforcing bonds with ICANN's technical community.<ref>https://buenosaires53.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-welcome</ref>

These three goals are integral to the much larger transition process. The President then went on to describe the necessary timeline of activities prior to the transition. Phase One includes Cross-Community and Board preparation of a proposal and adoption of NTIA's requested bylaw amendments. Phase Two, according to NTIA's Larry Strickling, will last anywhere between four to five months, which include a period of review between the United State's government and members of ICANN's community. Strickling would then assess whether the proposal meets the criteria set by the NTIA and has adopted all necessary bylaws. After the NTIA delivers a certification letter to congrees, the governmental branch has 30 legislative days to review the proposal. Once the review of the proposal is complete, the implementation and full transfer of stewardship takes place. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S43AHEIjeMI ICANN President at ICANN 53], retrieved 07 Oct 2015</ref>

==ICANN Community Discussion==
  −
 
  −
After the NTIA announcement, discussion began among ICANN's various stakeholders regarding how the stewardship of the IANA functions should be transitioned and to what entity or entities. Various sessions and panels focused on this topic at [[ICANN 49 - Singapore]] and continued at [[ICANN 50 - London]]. It was also a topic of much discussion in organizations and conferences such as [[NETmundial]], [[ISOC]], [[IETF]], [[Internet Governance Forum]], and the [[United Nations]].

==Process Development==
  −
The NTIA announcement led to an ICANN-spearheaded discussion that began with a "Call for Public Input on the Draft Proposal of the Principles, Mechanisms and Process to Develop a Proposal to Transition NTIA's Stewardship of the IANA Functions" that was posted by ICANN on 8 April 2014. The organization received hundreds of comments, highlighting the need to create a multistakeholder, transparent, and bottom-up process. A process document was published that included next steps and the implementation of a Coordination Group that would lead discussion and process of the IANA transition going forward.<ref>[https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/process-next-steps-2014-06-06-en Process to Develop the Proposal and Next Steps] ''Transition of NTIA's Stewardship of the IANA Functions - ICANN.org''; Retrieved 16 July 2014</ref>
