Hi Jim, thanks for your PoV. I largely agree with you reasoning, with one exception: Jim Reid wrote:

The NCC may well want the WG to be the one to say yes or no whenever a new "customer" comes along.
IMHO, this is a very bad idea. For more than one reason, e.g. timeliness of decision, definition of criteria, potential for arbitrary outcome based on whatever, lack of interest/involvement,...
Personally I think it's crucial the WG has a role in defining the scope of the service.
Agreed. But this sounds pretty much like AP, where the community defines the rules or "policy", and the NCC implements it. "Sharing" the responsibility for decisions seems to be cumbersome, at least.
YMMV. At present DNSMON largely operates in a vacuum with an open door "policy" which hasn't been agreed or documented. From that PoV, Kaveh's proposal is a very welcome step in the right direction.
Strongly seconded.
I hope the WG can quickly reach consensus on something similar to this draft once the summer holidays are over.
:-) Wilfried.
