[CWG-Stewardship] Remember to send questions and comments to legal advice from Sidley Austin

[Eduardo Diaz]

All:

If you pass the stewardship to the PTI, then the model starts to looks like
one of the models that was discarded in Istanbul. That model was the one
where the three entities, i.e. ICANN, RIRs and IETF, would have direct
contracts with and "independent" PTI. This model was discarded because of
its complexity (in the legal context).
