Bert -
I assume from the long to and cc list you are looking for me too affirmations.
I'm 100% fine with what you have and, if any of the other folks think you're
only 95% and propose tweaks, let me say in advance I'm fine with that as well.
Regards,
Carl
So... not 100% sure I captured the result ciorrectly.
This is what we have in rev 04:
<section title="Divisional Accounting"
anchor="divisional-accounting">
<t>
Funds managed by IASA shall be accounted for in a
separate set of accounts.
Separate financial reports, including a balance
sheet and a profit and loss statement for IASA alone,
shall be produced as directed by IAOC.
</t>
<t>
IAOC and ISOC shall agree upon and publish procedures
for reporting and auditing of these accounts.
</t>
</section>
This is what I have in my edit buffer for revision 05
<section title="Cost Center Accounting" anchor="cc-accounting">
<t>
As discussed with ISOC, funds managed by IASA shall
be accounted for in a separate set of accounts
within the Cost Center IASA.
A periodic summary of the IASA accounts shall be reported
in the form of standard financial statements that reflect
the income, expenses, assets, and liabilities of the IASA
cost center.
</t>
<t>
IAOC and ISOC shall agree upon and publish procedures
for reporting and auditing of these accounts.
</t>
<t>
Note that the ISOC in consultation with IAOC can
determine to structure the IASA accounting
differently in the future within the constraints
outlined in <xref target="isoc-responsibilities"/>.
</t>
</section>
Is that acceptable to everyone?
I have left the change to "General Ledger Accounts" out for the
time being, because I am not sure we have consensus on that yet
(even though ISOC prefers that terminology).

Margaret,
I agree with your point below but I do feel it is helpful to state
what ISOC's intended implementation is: a Cost Center within ISOC.
This should not override the section (principle) you quote below.
Perhaps we can add language at the beginning of this section to
clarify all this (or move the paragraph you quote from section 7 to
this section). We might also add some of the other language
proposed (see immed. below) so that the overall intent is clear
rather than focusing on the less important detail.
"...periodic summary of the IASA accounts in the form of standard
financial statements that reflect the income, expenses, assets, and
liabilities of that cost center."

Lynn

There is a section of the BCP that says:
Within the constraints outlined above, all other
details of how to
structure this activity within ISOC (whether as a cost
center, a
department, or a formal subsidiary) shall be
determined by ISOC in
consultation with the IAOC.
It seems inconsistent with this section to mandate elsewhere that
the IASA will be organized as a cost center, that we will use "cost
center accounting", that the financial reports will include a P&L
for the cost center, that we will publish the general ledger
accounts, etc. These are details that, IMO, the IAOC and ISOC
should work out (and change as needed to meet the needs of IASA and
the IETF community) between themselves.
