obj: "Indeed, as long as the IANA contract is in force according to its latest terms, the US government role is unchanged in some fundamental aspects.But as we comment on the impact of the AoC, there is no primary source (i.e. a specific NTIA or ICANN press release) supporting the fact that the IANA contract has been extended beyond the end of last month (Milton\u2019s words are just his, I did bring his attention to the specific page on NTIA web page where the latest IANA contract extension is absent).Being reluctant to take the IANA extension for granted based on secondary sources, I find it strange that NTIA, apparently so dedicated to transparency and Internet stability, omits to indicate the current arrangements for the IANA function!Regards,\u2013 Thierry Moreau"
