just to be clear - I do not think that anything to do with .int is subject to IETF actions other than the fate of domains the IETF created by RFCs - everything else is an IANA responsibility and I do not think the IETF has any say and should not stand in the way of the IANA doing whatever it feels it should and feels it has the authority to do thus, in my opinion, this ID should be cut back to only discuss the .int subdomains that were created by RFCs Scott > On Oct 19, 2022, at 8:54 PM, Toerless Eckert <tte@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Thanks, Kim, Scott > > I guess it was and is unclear to me how the responsibility of what goes on inside > a TLD like .int that is run by IANA is or is not subject to ICANN decisions.
