+1 looks good to me too, although I could quibble about the answer
to #4....that is not what it should mean, but you are in a much
better position to determine what it means in the context of these
discussions.<br>
Thanks for all the work you folks!<br>

I agree with the text from Milton, including
the wording as it is. I am open for clarifying
re-wordings, but not with softening the

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear members:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The CWG on IANA
transition is going to collecting
community feedback on the IANA
transition this week. This exercise is
very important because it will influence
the CWG’s development of a proposal.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have gone through
the 9 questions they prepared and
answered them, you all may be interested
in my answers. Most of these answers
will probably be uncontroversial on this
list, but there may be some room for
debate so I would like to get your
feedback on my proposed answers</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>1.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Do
you believe that the transition from the
NTIA should happen (Please provide the
reasons for your answer)? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yes. Unilateral US
government control of the IANA functions
contract is not compatible with the
multistakeholder model</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>2.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Are
you comfortable with ICANN as
policy-maker also being the IANA
operator without the benefit of external
oversight? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>3.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Should
registries, as the primary customers of
the IANA functions, have more of a say
as to which transition proposal is
acceptable? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The NTIA has made it
clear that all major stakeholder groups,
including registries, need to accept the
transition proposal. Registries should
have an influential role in any
oversight mechanisms of the
naming-related IANA functions, but need
not have a privileged role in the
selection of proposals. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>4.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>What
does functional separation of IANA from
ICANN mean to you? (this is not
referring to having another operator
than ICANN performing the IANA functions
but rather the internal separation
between ICANN and IANA in the context
where ICANN is the IANA operator) </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Functional separation
means that IANA is a department of ICANN
under the same management as the rest of
ICANN and without a clearly separated
budget or mission. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>5.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>Do
you believe the IANA function is
adequately separated from ICANN under
the current arrangements (internal
separation)? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p><span>6.<span style="font:7.0pt
"Times New Roman""> </span></span>In
considering the key factors (such as
security and stability, ease of
separating the IANA function from ICANN,
quality of services, accountability
mechanisms etc.) for evaluating the
various transition proposals what
importance would you give to the ability
to separate IANA from ICANN
(separability) vs. the other factors? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Very high importance,
because separability will have major
beneficial effects on all the other
factors, such as accountability, quality
of service, security and stability.
Separability increases the leverage of
the customers of IANA over performance,
security and stability.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">7. Given
the IANA functions could be separated
from ICANN do you believe it would be
important for the community to obtain
from ICANN on an annual basis the costs
for operating IANA including overhead
costs?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, very important.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">o Would it be
important to separate out the costs
associated with address and protocol
functions? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Less so than the IANA
department as a whole</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">8. Could
there be unforeseen impacts relative to
selecting a new operator for the IANA
functions vs the ICANN policy role
(should ICANN determine that there will
be another round of new gTLDs, how could
it ensure that the new operator would
accept this)?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No, a new operator
could be contractually bound to accept
changes from ICANN that were the product
of legitimate policy making processes. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">9. Are
there other transition models which the
CWG should be exploring? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, the new
structural separation model proposed by
Brenden Kuerbis, Matt Shears, and Avri
Doria</p>
