ASCII diff of ISOC-proposed changes to BCP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As part of considering the changes proposed by ISOC, I integrated the changes into the XML document and prepared an ASCII "diff -c" file, editing it to remove the noise around changed line breaks.
This may be easier for the issue tracker to integrate than the change-marked Word document or the PDF file.


Enclosed.

     The IAD is responsible for administering the IETF finances, managing
     separate financial accounts for the IASA, and establishing and
!    administering the IASA budget.  While ISOC will need to put some
!    financial controls in place to protect ISOC's fiscal stability, the
!    IAD (with IAOC approval, as appropriate) should have signing
!    authority consistent with carrying out IASA work effectively,
!    efficiently and independently.  If there are any problems regarding
!    the level of financial approval granted to the IAD, the IAOC and ISOC
!    shall work out a policy that is mutually agreeable, and shall do so
!    within a reasonable timeframe.
  
     The IAD negotiates service contracts, with input, as appropriate,
     from other bodies, including legal advice, and with review, as
     appropriate, by the IAOC.  The IAOC should establish guidelines for
     what level of review is expected based on contract type, size, cost,
     or duration.  ISOC executes contracts on behalf of the IASA, after
     whatever review ISOC requires to ensure that the contracts meet
!    ISOC's legal and financial requirements.
  
!    If a contract entered into by ISOC on behalf of IASA and/or the IETF
!    (an "IASA Contract") provides for the creation, development,
!    modification or storage of any data (including, without limitation,
!    any data relating to IETF membership, documents, archives, mailing
!    lists, correspondence, financial records, personnel records and the
!    like) ("Data"), then the IAD shall ensure that such contract grants
!    to ISOC the perpetual, irrevocable right, on behalf of IASA and IETF,
!    to use, display, distribute, reproduce, modify and create derivatives
!    of such Data.  ISOC will permit IASA and its designee(s) to have sole
!    control and custodianship of such Data, and ISOC will not utilize or
!    access such Data in connection with any ISOC function other than IETF
     without the written consent of the IAD.
  
     The IAD shall ensure that personal data collected for legitimate
     purposes of the IASA are protected appropriately; at minimum, such
     data must be protected to a degree consistent with relevant
!    legislation.

     Note that the goal is to achieve and maintain a viable IETF support
     function based on available funding sources.  The IETF community

!    fund all non-meeting-related activities.

  5.6  Operating Reserve
 
     As an initial guideline and in normal operating circumstances, the
     IASA should have an operating reserve for its activities sufficient
     to cover 6-months of non-meeting operational expenses, plus twice the
     recent average for meeting contract guarantees.  The IASA, in
     cooperation with ISOC, shall establish detailed targets for a reserve
     fund to cover normal operating expenses and meeting expenses in
     accordance with prudent planning, as part of the budget process.
  
!    The IASA expects ISOC to build and provide that operational reserve,
!    through whatever mechanisms ISOC deems appropriate.
  
     If the IASA accounts accumulate a surplus, ISOC may count that as
     part of the reserve.
