We could probably change this, but I think that the reasoning behind this definition was not only to use it as reference, but also to say that these DNS servers are different - all other domain names depend on them. >>> The organisations applicable under this policy are TLD operators as defined by >>> IANA and ENUM operators as defined by the ITU.

The former makes more sense to me. "TLD manager/administrator as > described in RFC 1591" might be more acceptable. I did some reading on IANA website and maybe the problem is that each of us imagine different thing under "defined by IANA" since I didn't find anything like this on IANA website. Since RFC 1591 and ICP-1 uses term 'designated manager' and other IANA documents speaks about "(re)delegation" would: "designated manager for TLD as delegated by IANA" be OK > Similar considerations apply to "ENUM operators as defined by the ITU". > As a side note, ENUM Tier 0 assignments would probably have interactions > with the policy proposal on "Assignments to the NCC". ITU documents use these terms: 3.2.1 administrator: The organization entrusted with the administration of a resource derived from an international numbering plan. 3.2.2 assignee: The applicant to whom E-series international numbering resources have been assigned. 3.2.3 assignment: The process for providing an international numbering resource to an eligible applicant. 3.2.4 country: A specific country, a group of countries in an integrated numbering plan or a specific geographical area. so is "ENUM administrator as assigned by the ITU" more appropriate?
