Any >> adequate IANA transition plan has to deal with both those issue. The fate (future ownership, etc) of the IANA domain and mark are essential to the IANA transition. They just aren't essential to the question of how the IETF uses the IANA. The IETF ICG response is about how the IETF uses IANA and what the IETF needs from IANA going forward. Other stakeholders will be providing other perspectives. The ICG should combine and consider these as appropriate. >> My position is simple: the IANA domain and mark should be associated >> with whatever entity is running the IANA functions.

I have only heard: ³we don¹t want to >> deal with this. Speaking as someone with no skin in that game, it sounds reasonable that the IANA domain and mark should be associated with whatever entity is running the IANA function, sure. In fact it sounds platitudinous. I don't however think that ICANN's performance of the IANA function overall is contingent on the IETF's approval, and it probably shouldn't be. Only the operation of the protocol parameter registries is covered by our agreement with ICANN for IANA (RFC2860). The other aspects of IANA's performance probably shouldn't be monitored or evaluated by the IETF, as we don't operationally interact with them. Should the protocol parameter registry be movable? Of course it should. And we have the power to move that resource any time we want, irrespective of the portability of domain names and trademarks. I don't want our flexibility to be limited by getting us all tangled up in obligations about trademarks. >> As I understand your position, it is that ICANN should be the entity >> that holds them perpetually.

Please explain to us >> why ICANN should be given a permanent property right in those >> resources when it does not and should not have a permanent, >> inalienable right to run the IANA functions. I doubt it would be possible, or appropriate, to gauge IETF consensus on the question of whether or not a corporation should own a perpetual right to a trademark. The scope of the IETF and its expertise are more narrow than you seem to think. No one here is likely to defend the proposition that ICANN or any other entity should have a permanent property right. But we are not the right organization to take a stand on this kind of question. Surely other organization participating the ICG process are in a better position to provide this feedback than us.
