[CWG-Stewardship] Do we really need a Contracting Co.?

[Avri Doria]

hi,

GNSO and ccNSO have no ability to sign a contract with anyone, they are
just parts of ICANN and ICANn cannot sign a contract with itself.

The contracting authority for IANA must be outside ICANN and it must be
an entity that is capable of signing a contract.
