<p class="MsoNormal">+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>

<p>1.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span>Do you believe that the transition from the NTIA should happen (Please provide the reasons for your answer)?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Yes. Unilateral US government control of the IANA functions contract is not compatible with the multistakeholder model<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>2.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span>Are you comfortable with ICANN as policy-maker also being the IANA operator without the benefit of external oversight?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">No.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>3.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span>Should registries, as the primary customers of the IANA functions, have more of a say as to which transition proposal is acceptable?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>4.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </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) <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>5.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span>Do you believe the IANA function is adequately separated from ICANN under the current arrangements (internal separation)?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">No.

<p>6.<span style="font-size:7.0pt"> </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?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">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)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">No, a new operator could be contractually bound to accept changes from ICANN that were the product of legitimate policy making processes.
