Why these? I see no sense in having an IETF AND an IAB advisory
council. I'd rather make it a council for each neworg function:

1) Internet addresses

2) Domain names

3) Root server operation

4) Parameters for technical standards

If you want you may put 2 and 3 together, though I prefer them
separate.

Anyway, I am clearly not understanding what you propose, probably
because I missed something?
