[CWG-Stewardship] Proposed DT-F Section 4 on split management function

[Alan Greenberg]

I suggest that section 4 in both the body of the report and in Annex 
N be replaced with the following.


Control of Root Zone Management

Currently updating the Root Zone requires the active participation of 
three parties, the IANA Functions Operator, the Root Zone Maintainer 
and the NTIA. The IANA Functions Operator receives change requests 
from various sources, validates them, and sends them to the Root Zone 
Maintainer who, once they are authorized by the NTIA, updates the 
Root Zone File, DNSSEC signs it, and distributes it to the Root operators.

Post transition there will only be the IANA Functions Operator and 
the Root Zone Maintainer. The CWG is not recommending any change to 
this operational relationship. The CWG is recommending that should 
there be a proposal to alter that relationship in the future, that it 
be subject to wide community consultation.
