Hmm... just to further understand the practicality of this. So the new IANA
(names part of the functions) will be funded by the registries right. Well
i have a few set of questions below:

- How does/will something like newgTLD process look like? I.e will ICANN
accredit or the new entity?
- What exactly will the new entity be doing?
- What will ICANN's new role be? I am assuming PDP (based on IGP) if that
is the case it means the new entity will work on the ICANN's community
developed policy right? And how does that improve accountability.
- Who determine what staff to employ for the new entity? I presume there
will then be a need for board of Directors, bylaw, membership etc.
- Is the new entity going to be established in any country?
- What will the composition of such new entities board look like? cctld,
gtld, end-users?
- Who will generally oversee the accountability of the new entity?
- Who/what determines how the funds is shared between ICANN and the new
entity?

Cheers!
