Re: [Ianaplan] control and negotiation (was Re: draft-ietf-ianaplan-icg-response-02 working group last call)

["Richard Hill" <[e-mail]>]

Thank you for this, but I still prefer the language that I proposed in my
previous message, that is:

"2.  results in the transfer of any associated marks and identifiers to the
IETF Trust, with the understanding that current and subsequent operators of
the IANA function shall be allowed to use them free of charge."

Best,
Richard
