Jeff,

I think that people close to the IANA Inc. development have this under control.
You might want to stay tuned to the following web page(s) for more information.

As for the CEO of the new IANA Inc., I would remind you that the Registry Industry
is a new industry. Many of the people in the industry are moving from one organization
to another. With the multi-level-marketing (MLM) structure shown below, I would think
that significant advancements will start happening inside of the organization to preserve
continuity.

	IANA
		ARIN
			RIPE
			APNIC

Note that ARIN is a notch "above" RIPE and APNIC because ARIN currently has control
over the .ARPA TLD and all of the IN-ADDR.ARPA zone. I have a feeling that this will
be moved to the new IANA Inc. and then ARIN will be at the same level as RIPE and
APNIC. At the moment APNIC is being moved to Australia. One of the key people from
RIPE is moving there to help run APNIC. I would not be surprised if other key people
from RIPE do not transfer within the organizations above to take advantage of career
opportunities.
