If this were modified to say "transition of the IANA names functions
in the IANA functions contract…" or something of that sort I think
it'd be better.  This constraining of scope was something I suggested
before, and I don't want it to get lost because I don't believe this
WG is chartered to try to provide alternatives to the number resources
or protocol parameters communities.
