A good point, and I like your wording. In any case, the text that I posted is very high-level language that needs to be realised in more detailed contracts, but I think we are aware of your point. Also, “IANA IP Reps” refers to the operational community representatives, so it isn’t necessarily lawyers. These are the communities telling the trust something, in relation to their expectations. But yes, as a general rule, leadership of any organisation needs to be aware of the 1000 vs. 100 issue your raised. Jari
