Dear Harald:

Thank you for this note informing me of the withdrawal of the IETF from the
PSO. As you point out, the PSO is no longer an ICANN Supporting
Organization.

We echo your desire for a continued and productive partnership with the IETF
within the revised ICANN structures; and appreciate all of the support that
the IETF has given to ICANN through the PSO and by other means since ICANN's
inception. Please do not hesitate to call on me or my successor if you see
any ways in which we can strengthen that relationship.

All best wishes for 2003.

Regards
Stuart

Dear Stuart,

The IETF notes that the Board of ICANN has adopted the transition
instruments relating to the reform of ICANN's structure and its supporting
organizations.

The IETF is a signatory to the Protocol Support Organization Memorandum of
Understanding, and it is noted that this organization is no longer a
recognized support organization of ICANN following the Board's adoption of
the transition instruments related to the evolution and reform of ICANN.

This message is to give formal notice to ICANN, and  to the other
signatories of the Protocol Support Organization Memorandum of
Understanding, that the IETF hereby withdraws from the Protocol Support
Organization.

The IETF looks forward to working with ICANN within the revised ICANN
structures.

Regards,

Harald Alvestrand
Chair, IETF
