I am K. Mustafa Toure', a citizen of Belize and an independent consultant . These are my recommendations for the Draft ICANN President's Strategy Committee Report:

1. LEGAL STATUS AND IDENTITY

Encourages the ICANN Board to explore with the US government, other
governments, and the ICANN community, whether there are advantages and
appropriate mechanisms for moving ICANN's legal identity to that of a
private international organization based in the US.

2. REGIONAL PRESENCE

The Committee believes that while ICANN's headquarters may
remain in the US, it needs to continue to establish and strengthen
regional presences, staffing and continue regional outreach.

3. ROOT ZONE MANAGEMENT AND TRANSPARENCY

ICANN to discuss with the Department of Commerce methods for clarifying
and simplifying the root-zone update process. NOTE: see proposal for
options outlined.

4. CONTINGENCY PLANNING

The Board to continue discussions on how some of its policy
objectives relating to the zone file and DNS could be better achieved
through the implementation and/or evolution of contingency "triggers"
and appropriate backstop mechanisms as expressed in ICANN's
existing contingency plan.

5. CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT

Board and management to continue to engage with partners (including
regional and international organizations) to identify how the ICANN
community, within its technical coordination role, can best contribute
to capacity building in the regions and help develop region-specific
programs in cooperation with other relevant Internet organizations.

respective roles, contributions, expectations, and responsibilities.
