<div dir="ltr">---Point 2.3 of the matrix deals with P3.III. of the Response from Protocol Parameters Registries Community, (Number 3062) and notably "Transition to Success Contractor" C.7.3 and "Continuity of Services" I. 61 of the current IANA functions contract.<div><br></div><div>I find the present formulation of the question not easy to understand and therefore have tried to inject some clarifying elements . Please find below my proposal.</div><div><br></div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">2.3</span></p>
<div><span style="font-family:Cambria">"Is it the preference of the IETF community to
replace by a simple acknowledgement the obligations of ICANN established under
C7-3 and I.61 of the current IANA functions contract to achieve a smooth
transition to subsequent operators, should the need arise? Given that these obligations
are not part of the MoU, is such a light declaration legally sufficient to
satisfy the need for stability and continuity ?"</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria">----Point 2.5 seems to me already �covered by point 2.3 ., as formulated above. I would see no added value in it and propose to delete it.</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria">Michael</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:Cambria"><br></span></div><div><br></div></div>
