The US Dep't Of Commerce, via its NTIA (Nat'l Telecommunications and Information Administration) has published a request for information titled Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
What I wonder is this: ICANN performs "the IANA function" in response to a contractual-like agreement with the National Atmosperic and Oceanic Administration (!). ICANN, via it's performance of IANA, operates the L root server - l.root-servers.net. If the IANA function is moved to a new home, does the L root server go with it?
