Bert asks: - should we (IETF) indeed have/request an IASA specific bank account for collecting meeting fees? - should we (IETF) indeed have/request an IASA specific bank account for depositing designated monetary donations? - should we (IETF) indeed have/request an IASA specific bank account for depositing ISOC controbutions to the IASA (as budgeted)? - if yes to previosu question, should we (IETF) be so prescriptive in sect 5.3 about when ISOC puts money in an IASA (bank) account (e.g. quarterly and in equal portions) ? - should we (IETF) request/require that the reserve fund is kept in an IASA specific bank account. as I just posted in response to a different posting from Bert I think these are not the right questions - that these questions are being asked is a symptom to me that the document (and maybe the IETF) is not yet clear on the principals we want to have agreed to for going forward - I think the whle question of a bank account is an implementation detail that the people "on the ground" (IAD etc) should figure out - the IETF should figure out what are we trying to accomplish and describe that clearly Scott _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
