This document considers administrative processes for ENUM in the
U.S.A. and offers two 'strawman' proposals in the spirit of moving
forward the work that must be done to implement a useful ENUM
capability. The U.S.A. has implemented number portability; therefore,
it is the telephony user that controls the assigned telephone number
so long as it maintains the telephony service. While the proposed
processes are tailored for the U.S.A. they may be appropriate for use
by other countries that implement number portability so that the
donor telephony service provider (e.g., the telephony service
provider that is assigned a block of telephony numbers before any
number porting event happens from that number block) is not relied on
for maintaining the delegation information for a telephone number
(e.g., the Tier 1 function in the ENUM process).

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
