Re: FYI -- IAB statement on IANA RFI



It's been pointed out that the note to DoC was actually sent by
the IAB and the IETF *Chair* not the IETF as whole.

Obviously, the timescale of this RFI was too short for the
IETF as a whole to debate a response. In fact, it was even too short
for us to spot this nit.

As you may have seen, the Department of Commerce has recently
published a Request for Interest (RFI), for the whole IANA function:

While the RFI was not a surprise, the IETF was not consulted in any way about the technical parameter assignment portion of the IANA work. As noted in the message we just sent in reply to this RFI, this gives us some concern in terms of potential impact for IETF work.

The IAB will be working through this year with the IAOC to ensure the
IETF continues to have a suitable technical parameter assignment
function.


Leslie, for the IAB.
