FWIW, I support Geoff here, given the history we have seen not only in direct IETF history but also in other Internet related registries (for example various TLD-registries). That said, I at the same time agree with Jari and Eliot that the over all goal is in the principles. That finding a solution "is implementation". So, I just would like to have a stronger statement so this is not forgotten. The copyright for a parameter and its assigments should stay with whatever organization "owns" that parameter. Not belong to whoever acts as the care taker of the registry. That ICANN also say they do not have any interest as the operator in IPR for the registry is good, but if the registry operator changes, IPR issues I absolutely would like to see in the agreement(s). I am because of that of course sort of happy with what Jari and Eliot stated. This can be found in the principles. Just do not forget about it... Patrik
