Thanks for your comments, Andrew. >> Feedback on the set of identified possible paths forward or options is the key >> question. Are any potential missed options? Also, feedback on the implications >> of options being considered would be welcome. > > I think that the possible options, to a first order of approximation, > are right, but I fear that the trade-off discussion is a little too > flat. Certainly. We are not very far either in the complete description of the options or their comparison. And personally I felt that the comments in the BOF also pointed to that we need a better mapping from problems we intend to solve to individual components of a new organisation. For instance, transparency is largely orthogonal to some of the structural issues. > In particular, I fear that the analysis does not place enough > emphasis on the achievability of each potential option, compared to > the advantages that each might bring.

FWIW, if I understand your comment correctly I also agree with it. I personally would like to keep Trust separate, and intentionally firewall it from the rest, for the reasons you state and also some other reasons; trust serves Internet’s users and the global community (e.g., copyrights of the RFCs) and the IETF admin otherwise largely serves the needs of the much smaller IETF community.
