Dear Jon, Thank you for this. I think that your comments are very helpful because they help to clarify the differences in points of view. Please see embedded comments below.

Since we're entertaining the > "hostile" cases here, Not necessarily hostile. ICANN is subsidizing the IANA function: it costs money to run it, but the IETF does not pay for it. ICANN is, at present, constrained to provide the function at no cost by its contract with NTIA: Absent that contract, ICANN could decide that it does not wish to provide that function for free, or even that it does not wish to provide that function at all. Or ICANN could cease to exist (unthinkable now, but how many of us thought that Wang or Digital Equipment would cease to exist?). >let me try to put this in the starkest, most > confrontational terms.

That is correct. Way back when, and I believe on a different list, Miles made the point that the protocol parameters function is not rocket science and similar things are done by and for many other standards making bodies, such as ISO. That's correct, and, as far as I know, most of those other standards making bodies don't have any particular agreements with whoever does the clerical equivalent of the IANA function. It is either done by the organization's own secretariat, or by some other organization that does it in exchange for fees, or, in some cases, at no cost. The situation is different here because the US government asserted its authority to make contractual arrangements regarding the performance of the clerical function. As a consequence, the intellectual property, including the mark IANA and the domain name IANA.ORG were transferred to ICANN. In analogous cases for other standards making organizations, the intellectual property is owned by the standards making body, so an outsourced clerical operator is obliged to comply with the instructions of the standards making body. That is not the case here: absent a new contract, there are no legal constraints on ICANN. Back when ICANN was created, the IETF didn't have sufficient funding to envisage performing the function in its own secretariat. Today, the IETF does have sufficient funding to envisage performing the function in its own secretariat. I can well understand that the IETF is happy to have someone else perform the function at no cost, but, in my experience, there ain't no such thing as a free lunch, so I'm wary. >They would lose everything, we would lose > nothing. The IETF might lost the ability to refer to the function as IANA, and it might not be able to continue to use the IANA.ORG domain name. And it might not get the service at no cost.

I will propose something different for 3 in the trial balloon. SNIP
