Thanks Eric, <br>
<br>
The clarifications are useful to me. Maybe they could be added in
the document ? This would be useful in the perspective of publishing
this beyond our group as part of an interim report for example. <br>
<br>
regarding #1 and #2, I would request the support of Eberhard to
ensure our use of vocabulary for these types of IANA requests is in
harmony with the ccNSO's framework of interpretation WG final report
(I read it but am still a bit unsure...). <br>

<br>
Thank you for the revision.<br>
<br>
To respond to the comment re: clarification of the difference(s)
between scenarios #1 and #2.<br>
<br>
Scenario #1 addresses the possibility that additions,
modifications or deletions of strings within the IANA root zone
are, for some reason, not accomplished. The zone is frozen. No
TLDs added, no TLDs deleted.<br>
<br>
Scenario #2 addresses the possibility that changes to
delegations are, for some reason, not accomplished. Delegations
from the zone are frozen. No NS records are updated.<br>
<br>
They could be merged though I personally see freezing the zone
as a different form of failure than refusing to make requested
changes to delegations.<br>
<br>
To respond to the comment re: clarification of the difference(s)
between scenarios #5 and #6.<br>
<br>
Hyperinflation (Weimar Republic,
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8">
June 1921 to January 1924) or a global financial crisis (2007 -
2008) would have an effect on the corporation's reserves, which
a domain-industry-specific collapse would not. Both would reduce
recurring revenues, but the latter would not necessarily
compromise the reserve fund, and the former would. So #5 is
survivable, until the reserve is exhausted, #6 is not.<br>
<br>
Please let me know your thoughts. I'll review the comments of
others today and tomorrow and post a revision on Saturday. The
revision will include a first "cook book recipes" for designing,
conducting and analyzing each scenario hypothetically.<br>
<br>
The capture and abuse of accountability scenarios are welcome
additions.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Once again thank you for this very useful first list. I find it
is already quite advanced. I attach a revised version with
several personal comments and proposals, including a couple of
additional scenarios around capture on the one side, the ability
for a minority of stakeholders to abuse accountability
mechanisms to effectively paralyze Icann. <br>
<br>
Best, <br>
