[CWG-Stewardship] update on DT X Separation Process

[Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond]

Dear Chuck,

an IFRT with Registries having a significant role would be, in my
opinion, an unbalanced group - and it is precisely when a group is
unbalanced that it then risks being used for lobbying, influence and
purposes other than one that is balanced where everyone has the ability
to restore balance.

The ATRT is multistakeholder group. As a result, it is not political. I
see the IFRT as something similar, for IANA. That's where the
multistakeholder balance need to be.

Kindest regards,

Olivier
