My understanding of the document, and my basis for agreeing to rough consensus, was that the IAOC could pursue these or not, as it saw fit. 

I think we may be trying to say the same thing. The document discusses what needs to be achieved. The WG’s opinion of what is necessary for the transition. But the WG did not want to put into the document (a) detailed contractual language as that is an IAOC task or (b) additional requests beyond the ones listed in the document. However, the IAOC certainly is in charge of all specific contract language already, and will be also in this case. They will also consider any additional elements that they think will be useful or needed, as they will always.

Hope this helps,
