There are other ways to split IANA's work. For instance, "root zone
management" could be split between a purely technical function
(changing IP addresses and phone numbers of the contacts), something
which could be done with less than a clerical employee or, better,
automatized, and a political function, mostly the redelegations, which
cannot be seen as purely technical.
