The IETF and the IANA&#xA;&gt; do not operate as you outlined above. Having spent too many years&#xA;&gt; within ICANN/IETF/IANA I can assure you are mistaken.&#xA;&gt; Your drafts are expired and it appears that there is no support for a&#xA;&gt; &#34;finance&#34; working group in the IETF.&#xA;&#xA;We are not establishing an IETF working group, which is an option that&#xA;was explored prior to the Paris meeting and has been sidelined at&#xA;present for depth-of-bureaucracy by the backing commercial entities.&#xA;Rather, we are establishing a top-level IANA registry group. This is&#xA;not anticipated by the IETF old-guard working with us to be either (a)&#xA;controversial or (b) possible to block.&#xA;&#xA;- Walter</html></oembed>
