Hello Izumi,

Just some minor comments below.

>> Based on an understanding that details of the text of the agreements are to be further considered with coordination among the three operational communities, the CRISP Team observes no inconsistencies between the approach introduced in the IANAPLAN and the minimum IPR requirements for the numbers community. We support this approach and open to discuss further details in how we prepare its implementation.

>>   === IANA Intellectual Property Rights: Minimum Requirements
>> This document outlines the Internet Number Community’s minimum requirements regarding IANA Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), as expressed in the Number Community proposal. It is the view of the CRISP Team that these requirements must be implemented as part of the transition.
>>
>> Minimum Requirements Regarding the IANA Trademark and IANA.ORG <http://iana.org/>
>> The IANA trademark and the IANA.ORG <http://iana.org/> domain name will be associated with the IANA numbering services and not with a particular IANA Numbering Services Operator.

"Will be associated with the IANA numbering services" may be 
misunderstood. They should be associated with numbering services, but 
not only that, they should also be associated with naming services and 
protocol services. I hope this can be made clearer.

>> The IANA trademark and the IANA.ORG <http://iana.org/> domain will be transferred and permanently held by an organisation that:
>>   - Is not the IANA Numbering Services Operator
>>   - Is an entity independent of the IANA Numbering Services Operator
>>   - Is neutral, trusted by the community of IANA stakeholders and has a proven track record of competence and transparency
>>   - Will facilitate a smooth transition of licenses and permissions should another operator (or operators) be selected in the future
>>   - Will ensure that these assets are used in a non-discriminatory manner for the benefit of the entire Internet community.
>>  From the Internet Number Community 's perspective, the IETF Trust would be an acceptable candidate for this role based on the minimum requirements described above.

>> Minimum Requirements Regarding the IPR Status of Registries Related to the Performance of the IANA Numbering Services
>> The IPR status of registries related to the performance of IANA numbering services must ensure free and unrestricted access to the public registry data throughout the stewardship transition and beyond. In particular:
>>   - The IANA Number Registries must be in the public domain
>>   - Non-public information related to the IANA number resource registries and corresponding services, including the provision of reverse DNS delegation in IN-ADDR.ARPA and IP6.ARPA, is managed by the IANA operator and will be transferred to its successor(s)

I'm not very familiar with this, but my guess is that this would include 
software. If so, it may be better to say so explicitly.

Regards,   Martin.
