True, but the IETF hasn't entered into an MoU with anyone else on this 
particular topic.

I don't think there is any argument about this. The question is really about 
the criteria, constraints, and how coordination will be done since the 
implication of the special names registry is that it pushes the "single root" 
of the namespace up one level.

Wrong actor. Alain said 'evaluate' (which I take to mean how does the 
IETF/IESG/community interpret the input provided related to the criteria in 
6761), not 'explain' (which I take to mean how does the requester attempt to 
describe how they meet the criteria).
