As we address the general topic of internet governance, we should 
consider how to inject a grasp of reality into the bodies of IG that are 
created.

With regard to Q6, there is an intriguing discussion in the IETF and IP 
address areas, in which at least to former IETF chairs, and many others, 
are carrying on a discussion that includes an implicit presumption that 
the IETF, not ICANN, is body that directs IANA with respect to IP 
address policy and allocations.

Given that the RIRs are doining a pretty decent job and that ICANN's IP 
address policy is best described as "when a RIR asks, IANA shall grant", 
it makes sense that IP address policy be elided from ICANN's job 
description.
