Hi,<br>
<br>
I think this has exactly a 180 degree wrong approach<br>
<blockquote type="cite">• Contract Co. – This is a not for profit
company whose only function is to be signatory to the contract
with the IANA Functions Operator. As such this entity would have
no staff.</blockquote>
<br>
I think that this should have nothing but staff, a minimal staff of
one or two I.e it should have a neutral Administrator that does
what the PRT tells her to do in terms of the contract adminstration,
and perhaps a backup/aise. It could also be the Root Zone
Management Process Administrator as that is a clerical staff
function.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
