Here's the proposed text:
ICANN shall act strictly in accordance with, and only as reasonably appropriate to achieve its Mission.
1. Coordinates the allocation and assignment of names in the root zone of the Domain Name System ("DNS"). In this role, ICANN¹s Mission is to coordinate the development and implementation of policies:
· For which uniform or coordinated resolution is reasonably necessary to facilitate the openness, interoperability, resilience, security and/or stability of the DNS;
· That are developed through a bottom-up, consensus-based multi- stakeholder process and designed to ensure the stable and secure operation of the Internet¹s unique names systems.
Is that what you think the _whole_ of the mission text is? I thought we'd agreed on some other items too. If the CCWG wants to go for this, it's hard to see how ICANN could provide the registries for the top-most numbers or the protocol parameters. Best regards, A -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@anvilwalrusden.com
