[ga] IAB on ICANN Mission
Excerpt from IAB Response to ICANN Evolution and Reform Committee Second
Interim Report:
IETF Protocol Parameters:
In its previous response the IAB disputed the assertion in the ICANN mission
statement that the role of coordination of the allocation and assignment of
protocol port and parameter numbers, and policy-development reasonably and
appropriately related to these technical functions, forms an integral part of
ICANN's mission.
The IAB notes that the interim report makes no mention of the stated IAB
concerns regarding this component of the ICANN mission statement. The IAB
remains deeply concerned that the role of the management of protocol
parameter assignments for IETF Internet-Standard protocols is not being
adequately distinguished from the deeper issues concerning the role of ICANN
with respect to the operation of the domain name system and unicast IP
address assignment.
As indicated in the previous response, this situation is not acceptable to
the IAB.
Leslie Daigle.
Chair, Internet Architecture Board
