7. ISOC Responsibilities for IASA
...
Independence: The IASA should be financially and legally distinct
from other ISOC activities.
Since it's a unit of ISOC, it can't be legally distinct. We have discussion
elsewhere of the financial arrangements. So I would reduce this sentence to
Independence: The IASA shall be distinct from other ISOC activities.
... IETF meeting fees shall be deposited
in a separate IETF-specific financial account and used to fund the
IASA under the direction and oversight of the IAOC. Any fees or
payments collected from IETF meeting sponsors should also be
deposited into this account. The IAD administers this account and
uses it to fund the IASA in accordance with a budget and policies
developed as described above.
This is all repetition of earlier stuff and should be deleted.
Support: ISOC may, from time to time, choose to transfer other funds
into the IASA account to fund IETF administrative projects or to
cover IETF meeting revenue shortfalls. There may also be cases
where ISOC chooses to loan money to the IASA to help with
temporary cash flow issues. These cases should be documented
carefully and tracked on both sides. ISOC will work to provide
the operational reserve for IASA functioning described above.
This is also repetition. Either delete it, or reduce it to a single
sentence referring back to earlier text.
