Hi, I think the point is that Names provides most of the income for ICANN and thus for IANA. I think it is quite appropriate for names to know how much goes into supporting Protocols and Numbers - especially in a word where we are told by the ICG that they are operationally separate and equal. Perhaps others think so too. I think it is a very appropriate question while we are thinking about transition and the reliability of the funding for the future. and I do think the long term funding is a part of the model we have not paid great attention to. avri On 03-Feb-15 07:27, Seun Ojedeji wrote:

Thanks Bernie.
· Regarding “Are your concerned about the actual costs for
operating the IANA functions, for protocols and numbers, given these are currently funded by ICANN.” – Are don’t think it is accurate to say that they are currently funded by ICANN; ICANN may fund some costs but a large part of the RIR and IETF functions are not funded by ICANN.
While the RIRs contributes $800k+ annually (there is no clear financial contribution made by the IETF body), it's not clear how much is spent to operate numbers functions for instance. So I think the intent of the question could be to understand whether the community is interested in knowing the actual cost of operating the respective functions since everything seem lumped together at the moment. Whether it's appropriate for the CWG to ask would be another thing to consider, so perhaps rephrasing the question to refer to names related function may be helpful. Something similar to below:
" Given that the proposal from respective communities may be different, are you concerned about knowing the actual costs for operating the IANA functions related to names"

All,
At the request of Lise and Jonathan, given the time-frame is incredibly short, I am including version 3.5 of the discussion document.
Based on 3.2 all changes are in track changes and each change has been attribute via a comment bubble to the person or persons who made the original comment/request.
We have also included the questions which were suggested on today's RFP3 call.
As per Jonathan's request we do need to get this done before heading to Singapore which for most of us will be mid-day Wednesday of this week. As such we would appreciate any significant comments by noon UTC of Wednesday this week at which point we will finalize the document for general distribution.
Thank You.
B.
Ps clean and track changes version included.
