was a quid pro quo during the negotiations between Bob Kahn’s who claimed to own the IP associated with the IETF Secretariat functions, the IETF and ISOC leadership and Neustar who offered to buy the Secretariat functions from Bob, but assign the IP rights
to the IETF Trust. Bob Kahn, for his own reasons, did not trust the ISOC or IETF leadership to manage the IP at the time and wanted to ensure there was a neutral entity that was established to manage the IP in the public interest. Steve Crocker and I, on
a flight back from an ICANN meeting in Argentina, created the idea of the IETF Trust (and the initial set up documents) to ease the concerns of Bob while at the same time ensuring that the IP could be licensed to the IETF.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

Let’s assume the worst and the IANA name is trashed for whatever reason. The IANA function is a unique function which does not rely on its name. You could rebrand the function ZZXYA, and that still would have little if any impact on the users of the service.
Aside from getting a new domain name (and learning how to pronounce that new name

the marks without the good will renders the transfer void and any license without real QC is a “naked license” and likewise unenforceable. There is no reason IETF would know this. For some reason I thought that Trust was formed to develop technical protocol,
not to manage IP, but you would know better than I.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

the community will be monitoring SLEs. However, that won’t absolve the trademark owner/licensor from doing so and the QC’s have to have teeth. Since we will be handing a set of teeth to someone, I think there needs to be some real thought put into it and
a plan published for public comment before it happens. </span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Ok, if the concerns are around service levels, I totally get that. That has been separated from the monitoring of the trademarks. I have been working in a small group chartered
by the CCWG and working with IANA/ICANN to come up with a framework for Service Levels that will be monitored by the community. The group consisted of three ccTLDs and three reps from the gTLDs and chaired by Paul Kane. Yesterday was hopefully our last call
before we release the subgroup report to the CCWG, who in turn will put it out for public comment shortly. The mailing list of the group is public.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is important to note that we developed a framework and in some cases the SLEs, but in other cases, since we have asked for things that have not been measured before, we are waiting
for IANA to build the capability to measure these items before coming back and setting the actual SLEs based on past performance and industry norms. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is also important to note that the subgroup was not chartered to develop the penalties associated with breaching the SLEs. That will be for the CCWG to determine at a later point.
If anyone wants to see the current draft, I am happy to send around, but will ask for a couple of days while the draft is cleaned up to reflect the discussions yesterday.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The IETF Trust was specifically formed to manage and control the Intellectual Property of the IETF. I was involved in the creation of the Trust along with Steve Crocker, ISOC
Leadership, Bob Kahn, as well as the then IETF Chair, and trademark counsel the IETF leadership and others. An amendment would need to be required in order for them to manage the IP Rights of the IANA organization, but that does not seem to be too complicated.
The IETF's Trust's sole reason for existence was to manage IP so they should have the expertise. Granted I have not followed the evolution of the Trust over the past five years or so, but they should have the expertise.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">But let me ask a fundamental question. What quality control are we really worried about here in terms of use of the trademark rights? I have been racking my brain trying to think
of the possible parade of horribles that might occur if IANA is not able to control the use of the IANA trademark. can there really be infringement of the IANA mark which may not arguably be used in commerce? even if there is a use of the mark by others,
Are we worried that others may believe that some other entity is the real IANA if the other entity uses the IANA name? I would think the accountability measures within the community are too strong for that (not to mention the sophistication of the IANA user
base - the registries and the IETF itself. <u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">ICANN has not proposed a particular third party. The CRISP Team, representing the numbers community, has proposed the IETF Trust.
The IANAPLAN Team, representing the protocol parameters community (aka the IETF), was silent on the IANA trademarks; when asked by the ICG whether they objected to the CRISP plan, they indicated they did not object, and that they were willing to have the IETF
Trust serve in that role. It's not clear to me whether or to what extent either Team consulted trademark counsel or understood the ramifications of this proposal.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">The CWG has not taken a position. A rough consensus seems to be emerging that some third party (not necessarily the IETF Trust) would
be acceptable, if appropriate accountability measures were put in place (i.e., that the third party would be accountable to the 3 operational communities). This is still an active discussion in the CWG. Many are pushing for it to be the IETF Trust. I am
trying to get people to focus on the substantive concerns, with quality control chief among them (and policing and enforcement, default and termination powers not far behind).</span><u></u><u></u></p>
