I think this misses a nuance. The above is not true from the POV of
the non-names communities. Under the CWG proposal, both the IETF and
RIRs will conclude (or maintain) their agreement with ICANN, not PTI.
The stewardship of their respective functions is _already_ underaken
by those communities. This is the point the IETF at least has been
making all along -- from long before NTIA kicked this off. So the
distinction from (say) the numbers community between "ICANN" and "PTI"
is inoperative.
Best regards,
