How do you know that? I thought this was a free service for the IETF. I admit I don't know the numbers contribution levels for the IANA service, but I am pretty sure IETF pays nothing for it. I do not begrudge that Names supports Protocols, I think it is a good public service and I would like to see ICANN more invovled in public service (as my involvement in the JAS new gTLD funding for developing economies CWG showed) . However, I think it critical to know the details. avri avri
