<p class="MsoNormal">Milton: I agree that changing the IANA operator is a technical decision and not a policy decision; however there are contingent policy issues that may arise due to this technical decision - such as jurisdiction of the new IANA operator,
financing of the new IANA operator - where GAC/ALAC participation may be beneficial.<u></u><u></u></p><div><div class="h5">
