[discuss] Roadmap for globalizing IANA

Mon Mar 3 19:00:49 UTC 2014

This is a well thought out proposal.
However 1000 delegates in two days will only reach consensus (if at all) on the broadest of ideas.
Often times meetings have different categories of contributions, where some can be submitted for "information". That would have been a useful mechanism for this contribution.

Moreover, when seeking, not just acquiescence, but support and the signing of an MoU from the USG, it would have been more productive to use the language from the problem statement:

"Objections have been raised to US government involvement in this process on several grounds, including exclusivity and concerns of trust. Objections have equally been raised to movement of the function to several international organizations."

And leave it at that, rather than trying to build a case of grievances.

It may be that focusing on process and general objectives might be a more fruitful path forward than a fully architected solution which may have more divergence of views as Nick points out.

Dear Milton, while is is useful of course to contribute proposals, suggesting that other parties must accept them wholesale and only propose 'quibbles' of change doesn't seem to me an approach that inspires confidence.

Even if there are quibbles about the details of the proposal, we look forward to gaining agreement on those principles, and are willing to entertain any proposals that embody them.
