Sorry, needed another sip of coffee to wake up. The final text I have is slightly different (thanks to my co-editor Rob for clarifying) than below, namely: 5.1 Cost Center Accounting Funds managed by the IASA shall be accounted for in a separate set of general ledger accounts within the IASA Cost Center. In the remainder of this document, these general ledger accounts are termed "IASA accounts". A periodic summary of the IASA accounts shall be reported in the form of standard financial statements that reflect the income, expenses, assets, and liabilities of the IASA cost center. The IAOC and ISOC shall agree upon and publish procedures for reporting and auditing of these accounts. Note that ISOC in consultation with the IAOC can decide to structure the IASA accounting differently in the future within the constraints outlined in Section 7.

I think we can solve the "general Ledger Accounts" issue with a very simple addition as follows: <section title="Cost Center Accounting" anchor="cc-accounting"> <t> Funds managed by IASA shall be accounted for in a separate set of general ledger accounts within the Cost Center IASA. In the remainder of this document, these general ledger accounts are termed "IASA accounts". A periodic summary of the IASA accounts shall be reported in the form of standard financial statements that reflect the income, expenses, assets, and liabilities of the IASA cost center. </t> <t> IAOC and ISOC shall agree upon and publish procedures for reporting and auditing of these accounts. </t> <t> Note that the ISOC in consultation with IAOC can determine to tructure the IASA accounting differently in the future within the constraints outlined in <xref target="isoc-responsibilities"/>. </t> </section> It establishes the link between the ISOC terminology and at the same time it lest us (techies) not trip over the long term all the time. That is what I am putting into rev 05. OK? Bert _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
