Dear colleagues,
Today the Consolidated RIR IANA Stewardship Proposal (CRISP) team publishes the second draft of the Internet numbers community proposal on the transition of the IANA stewardship.
I have reviewed the "redline" PDF version of this draft, and attach a signature covering this file, made with my PGP key (ID AE995ED9), so as to remove any doubt as to which version of the document I have reviewed. This draft of the proposal seems to me to say what is needed as input from the number-resources community to the process of transition of the contract for the IANA function, proposing - to keep operational processes undisturbed, - to transfer the contracting-party role from NTIA to the RIRs co-ordinated through the NRO, - to keep number-resource data in the public domain, and - to vest other IANA-related intellectual property in a safe place; and explaining very clearly - how the RIR processes have been developed, - how these processes work, and - how these processes have been used to prepare the current proposal. Congratulations and thanks to the CRISP Team for such a thorough job, done at a time of the year when so many of us were enjoying a break. Good job! I shall communicate a number of editorial suggestions ("nits") directly to the CRISP team. Best regards, Niall O'Reilly
