A legally distinct IANA affiliate, consisting of ICANN's current IANA
department operations, with one or more members including ICANN, the RIRs
(their preferred legal entity), and IETF (their preferred legal entity),
and governed by a community selected board:
-
maintains operational security, stability, resiliency of the DNS and
other IANA functions;
-
clearly separates the implementation of the IANA functions from names
(ICANN), numbers (RIRs) and protocols (IETF) policy making;
-
creates IANA operational oversight, with service level agreements
continuing or being developed in conjunction with and monitored by a direct
customer committee(s) and comparable bodies within the policy organizations;
-
creates IANA organizational accountability, with its board 1) being
directly selected through multistakeholder community selection mechanisms
within the policy making organizations, and 2) decisions subject to an
independent appeals mechanism;
-
addresses IANA legal and financial risk, by limiting the scope of IANA’s
operations and activities;
-
addresses geopolitical concerns potentially through the geographic
diversity of IANA’s members;
-
reduces Internet governance and business risk, by maintaining the
coherency of the IANA functions while, should it be necessary, allowing for
the portability of IETF, RIR, and ICANN registries;
-
creates consistency between and strengthens the proposed contractual
transition approaches of the IETF, RIRs, and ICANN;
-
adheres to and satisfies the NTIA’s four principles, and achieves the
USG’s stated "intent to transition key Internet domain name functions to
the global multistakeholder community".
