[CCWG-ACCT] Regarding IANA transition in the bylaws

[Chris Disspain]

Note also that the current NTIA contract contains obligations on ICANN to facilitate the transfer of the IANA function to another party at the expiration and non-renewal of the contract. It might be useful to use those provisions as a guide to how the by-law should be drafted. 

Cheers,
