Re: [At-Large] Review of the DNS Root Server Advisory Committee

There is much history here - the root server operators, or rather the operators of the primary system of root servers (there are other systems of root servers) have never pledged allegiance to ICANN. Rather they run their systems as their own systems, set their own rules, adopt their own procedures. Don't confuse the root server operators with the ICANN RSSAC. There might be some overlap but the second group is an ICANN body. jaap
