Clearly not, based on the paper we wrote and released last month:

Good question. They made no mention of any particular organizational type
in the statement. But they are clear that,

"*there should be no artificial limitation in the scope of the discussion*.
For example, a consideration of *various organisational options*, as well
as of the *opportunity* and the *most appropriate ways to separate policy,
operational and oversight activities* should not be "off-limits", if we
want the debate on the future of IANA to be seen as truly legitimate at the
global level."
