Dear Colleagues,

Registration for the "ICP-2 Review" Webinar is ongoing. 

The session will be moderated by Mr. Hervé Clément, Member, Number Resource Organization Number Council (NRO NC). With him in the panel will be:

The Internet landscape has changed significantly over the last two decades. The Number Resource Organization Executive Council (NRO EC), in conjunction with the Address Supporting Organization Address Council (ASO AC), decided it was time to review and update the Internet Coordination Policy  (ICP-2) to meet current needs.  

In October 2023, the Number Resource Organization Executive Council (NRO EC) asked the NRO Number Council (NRO NC), that fulfils the role of the Address Supporting Organization Address Council (ASO AC), to establish and manage a process to update the ICP-2. Modification of ICP-2 requires an open and transparent process to allow participation from across the global RIR and ICANN communities. 

In this webinar, the panelists will showcase the progress achieved so far in the ICP-2 Review. The session will also provide an introduction to the draft version of a document that aims to update ICP-2: Criteria for Establishment of New Regional Internet Registries. This updated document is titled "Governance Document for the Recognition, Maintenance, and De-recognition of Regional Internet Registries".

This document is currently open for comments from 14 April to 27 May 2025. We invite community input on this draft document and encourage everyone interested in this topic to attend this session. We look forward to having your inputs in this webinar.
