Are you suggesting an ad-hoc committee inside ICANN? How can an ad-hoc
committee inside ICANN have a contractual agreement with IANA that is also
within ICANN? If you are suggesting an ad-hoc committee outside the ICANN
umbrella then thats exactly what we are calling an Oversight Council.

In your ad-hoc committee, we are dealing with Beckys suggestion of whether
only registeries should be part of the committee because the day to day SLA
monitoring is technical and operational without any policy implications.
Therefore, if you are suggesting a MS representation beyond the
registeries, request you to explain how you are countering Beckys rationale?

Nobody is contesting that there can be a selection/nomination process with
sufficient accountability checks.

I dont understand how IANA is suddenly independent? Are you suggesting that
IANA be transferred to a new entity?
