Oh but guess what - there is no such list for all the RIRs. Indeed, the whole topic has not even been raised on the ARIN PPML or even among its elected Advisory Committee.

As an ICG member I am deeply concerned about the overall coherence of the IANA transition. A broken process in one oprerational community is going to jeopardize the efforts of all three oc's. While it's true that we shouldn’t be spending much bandwidth here discussing what the RIRs should do, I think some obvious failings and distortions in their process should be of great concern to everyone concerned with the transition, just for the same reason that Eliot sent the first message. 

What are the RIRs doing, indeed.
