Hi Milton,  thanks for the comments, etc.

I don't have any misconception on this matter.  I am just raising a concern I see when it comes to moving to another IFO and how such a change would occur and whether there is a need to coordinate such a change to mitigate any issues related to continuity and stability - that's all.  If we believe that this is not the case nor necessary then fine we can delete.

Others should review/edit the comments and see if they can be supported as an NCSG input - we don't much time - THANKS!

Matthew

I went over it. Made some additions, fleshed out a few things. 
But we do have a serious disagreement. Whoever wrote the initial draft is laboring under the misconception that any change in IANA function operators must be coordinated across all three operational communities. This is just not true. The plan (and at least 2 of the 3 OCs involved) assumes that each OC has the ability to select a new IANA functions operator independently for its own part of the functions. None of the numbers and protocols people have expressed any concern about the compatibility implications of doing that. It seems to be only names people who are worried about that.

I would object to all of that language but before deleting it wanted to flag this issue on the list for discussion.

Thanks Rafik - this is very "drafty" so please consider it a strawman.
