> Background
> ==========
> 
> Registries of parameter values for use in IETF protocols are stored
> and maintainted for the IETF by the Internet Assigned Numbers
> Authority (IANA), and are the subject of the "IANA Considerations"
> section in many RFCs.
> 
> For a number of years, this IANA function has been provided by the
> Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).  The
> IETF's relationship with IANA was formalized through a Memorandum of
> Understanding between the IETF and ICANN codified in 2000 with the
> publication of RFC 2860.  Over time, processes and role definitions
> have evolved, and have been documented in supplemental agreements.
> 
> ICANN has had a contract with the US Department of Commerce (DoC) to
> provide the IANA function, undertaken through the National
> Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).  In March of
> 2014, NTIA announced its intention to transition out of its current
> role, meaning that NTIA would not need to renew its contract with
> ICANN when that contract expires 30 September 2015.  NTIA requested a
> transition proposal be prepared to outline the necessary
> arrangements. In the case of the elements of the IANA function
> concerning the IETF protocol registries, it is likely that the
> existing well-documented practices will continue and no or little new
> activity will be required.
> 
> Tasks
> =====
> 
> The IANAPLAN working group is chartered to produce an IETF consensus
> document that describes the expected interaction between the IETF and
> the operator of IETF protocol parameters registries.
> 
> The system in place today for oversight of the IETF protocol
> registries component of the IANA function works well. As a result,
> minimal change in the oversight of the IETF protocol parameters
> registries is preferred in all cases and no change is preferred when
> possible. The working group will address the implications of moving
> the NTIA out of its current role with respect to IANA on the IETF
> protocol parameters registry function in a way that focuses on
> continuation of the current arrangements.  The working group will
> assume the following documents continue to be in effect:
> 
> - RFC 2850
> - RFC 3777 and its updates
> - RFC 2860
> - RFC 6220
> - IETF-ICANN-MOU_2000
>   (http://iaoc.ietf.org/documents/IETF-ICANN-MOU_2000.pdf)
> - ICANN-IETF Supplemental Agreements
>   (updated yearly since 2007, the 2014 version is available at
>   http://iaoc.ietf.org/documents/
>   2014-ICANN-IETF-MoU-Supplemental-Agreement-Executed.pdf)
> 
> This working group is chartered solely with respect to the planning
> needed for the transition, and is not meant to cover other topics
> related to IANA. Possible improvements outside that scope will be set
> aside for future consideration. However, the mechanisms required to
> address the removal of the overarching NTIA contract may require
> additional documentation or agreements. The WG will identify, but
> not create, such required agreements.
> 
> Should proposals made by other communities regarding the
> transition of other IANA functions affect the IETF protocol parameter
> registries or the IETF, the WG may also review and comment on them.
> 
> Fully documenting the interaction between the IETF and the operator
> of IETF protocol parameters registries may require detailed terms of
> agreements or other details of procedures that are normally delegated
> to and handled by the IAB or IAOC. The working group will not attempt
> to produce or discuss documentation for these details, but will
> request the IAB or IAOC to provide them separately.
> 
> The WG shall seek the expertise of the IAB IANA Evolution Program to
> formulate its output. It is expected that members of the IAB IANA
> Evolution Program will actively participate in the WG.

> 
> Milestones:
>  Jan 2015 - complete protocol parameters registries document
>  May 2015 - review of other transition proposals, if needed
>  Sep 2015 - close
