"IANA transition"

• July 2015: graphical overview: https://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/Number_Community_Proposal_Overview.pdf

• • Movie , January 20015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihB4ZyDvFwM

• • Joint proposal of CRISP team: December 2014: https://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/CRISP-IANA-PROPOSAL-First-Draft1.pdf

Under current arrangements, the NTIA is responsible for extending or renewing the IANA
functions agreement, and setting the terms of that contract. A new contract with the five RIRs
and the IANA functions operator as signatories would shift the responsibility for renewing,
setting terms or terminating the contract to the RIRs, who would coordinate their decisions via
the NRO Executive Council (made up of the RIR Directors and Chief Executives). Decisions
made regarding the contract would be based on operational circumstances, past performance
and input from open, regional communities.

Technocracy

  • coders don’t just have good things to contribute to the political world, but that the political world is theirs to do with what they want, and the rest of us should stay out of it: the political world is broken ... and the solution to that... is for programmers to take political matters into their own hands.
