Yes, I read the IETF general list, and I've John's draft in my
"collection" <http://purl.net/xyzzy/home/test/>  It's not about
finding a new hoster for the IANA, it's about the definition of
"IESG approval".  Perfectly irrelevant for LTRU, it was always
clear that there's no way to bypass the "language tag review"
step in our procedure.  You can't send a registration request
directly to the IESG - that's the problem they had with this
obscure IPv6 hop-by-hop option, if I understood this correctly.

For the moment IANA is what the IETF says it is.  And for the
moment ns1.de.eu.orsn.net mirrors ICANN's servers, or at least
that's what I think it does.

I like the idea.  But it will be 3066ter, Peter can't register
them manually one after the other.  3066ter will simply offer a
bulk registry update, add ISO 639-3 to the registry maybe after
filtering any dupes.  No confusion.

Fine, then let's delete it from the references.  The last time
I proposed this you didn't like it.  Only an "informative" MoU,
good riddance from our "normative" references.

Reinventing ICANN isn't covered by our WG Charter, we're here
to define a registry format, not the hoster of this registry.
And as far as I'm concerned that job is finished.  Bye, Frank
