[CCWG-ACCT] Request for clarification - Ominous update on the IANA transition

[Paul Rosenzweig]

With respect, given what NTIA has said publicly, this "fear" can only be
based on the management's self-fulfilling wish.  To the contrary, I think

management to frustrate the communities will ....

This is concerning:

> "...there have been various discussions between various members of the
CANN management and various community leaders on concerns about some of the
proposals from the IETF, RIRs, and naming community regarding separability.

Non-separability is not among the five criteria established by NTIA in their

Separability is a core feature of the IETF's existing MOU...why would a
continuation of that principle be a threat to the transition? It does not
compute.

These concerns have been raised in the context of the fear that  the
proposals may make it harder to get approval from the US Government.
