What is ICANN?• Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers

What is ICANN?• ICANN is a not-for-profit, public-benefit organization

formed in 1998.• Its staff operates the Internet’s Domain Name System,

coordinates allocation and assignment of the Internet’s unique identifiers, such as Internet Protocol addresses, accredits generic top-level domain (gTLD) name registrars, and helps facilitate the voices of volunteers worldwide who are dedicated to keeping the Internet secure, stable and interoperable. ICANN promotes competition in the domain name space and helps develop Internet policy.

How is ICANN organized?• At the heart of ICANN’s policy-making is what is called a

“multistakeholder model.”• This decentralized governance model places individuals,

industry, non-commercial interests and government on an equal level. Unlike more traditional, top-down governance models, where governments make policy decisions, the multistakeholder approach used by ICANN allows for community-based consensus-driven policy-making. The idea is that Internet governance should mimic the structure of the Internet itself – borderless and open to all.

https://www.nic.ad.jp/ja/icann/about/organization.html

What is ASO?• The purpose of the Address Supporting Organization

(ASO) is to review and develop recommendations on Internet Protocol (IP) address policy and to advise the ICANN Board. Fifteen volunteers, three from each of the five RIR communities, serve on the ASO Address Council (AC).

What is ASO?• The Address Supporting Organization (ASO) is an ICANN-

facing body while the Number Resource Organization (NRO) is a Regional Internet Registry-facing body. The two bodies are connected but have different responsibilities.• The purpose of the ASO is to review and develop

recommendations on global Internet number resource policy and to advise the ICANN Board.  The functions of the ASO are carried out by the ASO Address Council (ASO AC), which consists of the members of the NRO Number Council (NRO NC). NRO NC members are elected and appointed by their respective RIR communities.

What is NRO?• The Number Resource Organization (NRO) is a

coordinating body for the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) that manage the distribution of Internet number resources including IP addresses and Autonomous System Numbers. Each RIR consists of the Internet community in its region.

2016 ICANN Board of Directors Election• Endorsements

I strongly support Akinori’s nomination to the ICANN board, in consideration of his significant contributions to internet communities in the Asia Pacific regions over decades of work.

Akinori had contributed to JANOG (Japan Network Operators’ Group) as part of the founding steering committee during 1997 to 2007. He dedicated substantial effort to make the community successful from the beginning. His great efforts led the community to an era where hundreds of engineers attend JANOG meetings. I do believe the current success of JANOG could not have come about without his contribution.

Akinori also has left a profound impact on APNIC. He served as a member of the Executive Council for 15+ years. I think his thoughtful and compassionate chairmanship made a community where people from multiple countries feel comfortable to join.

Considering his wealth of experience among APAC communities, and his rich humanity which many people love, I’m confident that Akinori would serve ICANN well as a board member.

What is At-Large?• Within ICANN’s multistakeholder model of policy

development, At-Large is the community representing the best interest of individual Internet users. • The At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is the primary

organizational home within ICANN for individual Internet users. The role of the ALAC shall be to consider and provide advice on the activities of ICANN, insofar as they relate to the interests of individual Internet users.

How is At-Large organized?• The At-Large Community has a bottom-up, tiered

structure. • On the grassroots level, there are more than 165 At-Large

Structures (ALSes). These local organizations of At-Large members are located throughout the world.• The goal is ultimately to have at least one ALS in every

country. Typically, an individual Internet user joins At-Large by joining one of its local ALSes. However, individuals may also participate without joining an ALS.

More than 165 ALSs in the world.

How is At-Large organized?• The ALSes are organized by region into five Regional At-

Large Organizations (RALOs). • African Regional At-Large Organization (AFRALO) • Asian, Australasian and Pacifc Islands Regional At-Large

Organization (APRALO) • European At-Large Organization (EURALO) • Latin American and Caribbean Islands Regional At-Large

Organization (LACRALO) • North American Regional At-Large Organization (NARALO)

What is IANA?• Internet Assigned Numbers Authority• The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is a

department of ICANN that is responsible for maintaining the registries of the Internet's unique identifiers, which include domain names, Protocol Parameters, and Internet numbers (IP Addresses and Autonomous System Numbers).• IANA distributes blocks of IP addresses to the five Regional

Internet Registries (RIRs).

Maemura-san’s Comment• ICANNは、RIRs や IETF に比べて、 圧倒的にマルチステークホルダーによる組織です。 さまざまな、時に相反する考え方のステークホルダーを抱えるコミュニティに対して示す理事会の判断は、 時に極めて難しいこともあり得ます。 グローバルな公益とは何かという、 ICANN 設立以来一貫した問いかけも存在します。 これらは、

ICANNが安定的な運営とサービス提供を行えるようになっている今日でも、 いまだ実験的な取り組みと言えるのではないかと思うほどです。• JPNIC からもお伝えしてきた通り、 2016 年10 月1日、 インターネットの黎明から一貫して米国が担ってきた

IANA に対する監督権限が、 グローバルなインターネットコミュニティに移管されました。 2014 年以来2 年半にわたって検討して準備をしてきた、 純粋にコミュニティがリードする新たなインターネットの運営体制が、 ちょうど始まったところです。 その要所を占める ICANN では、 IANA 部局を子会社化するとともに、 IANA 監督権限移管に最低限必要とされた、 新たな説明責任機構が施行されたばかりです。 このような時代の転換点で、 要所の運営に関与することにわくわくするとともに、 責任の重大さを感じずには入られません。（中略）

• 理事会の定員は 20名ですが、 このたび私と同時に理事に就任する 5名を加え、 メンバーは一時的に 25 名となっています。 この 25 人は、黎明期からインターネットに関わっている技術者、 ICANN のそれぞれの事業分野に精通した専門家、 組織経営に長年の経験を持つエグゼクティブなど、 それぞれに非常に高い専門性を持つ人々が集まっており、なおかつ、 礼儀を踏まえながら、 実に闊達な手加減のない議論が繰り広げられます。 従って、新参者として学ばなければならないことがたくさんあることのプレッシャーよりも、 刺激と充実感の方が勝るという感じがしています。 https://www.nic.ad.jp/ja/topics/2016/20161108-01.html
