That was how I took the earlier discussion too.  I will also say that,
in my own case, my opposition to adding iana.org and the IANA trade
mark to our list of transitions must haves was exactly, "Not worth a
possibly contentious process."  I think we should not bargain for such
a change, because I don't think it gives us anything that would be
worth giving anything up for.  But if someone else wants to engage in
such bargaining, I think the IETF Trust is a fine place for the name
or trademark or both to land.
