[Community-Discuss] Successful IANA transition

[Mwendwa Kivuva]

The Internet community has won in the singular vision to transition the
IANA function. This is a win for the people of the world. Thanks to
everyone who participated in the process, and to all the support given to
the teams that made it possible. It's been a long journey.  And as William
Shakespeare said, "All's Well That Ends Well".
Viva Internet.
