I am afraid this is meaningless unless this is insurred and warranted by a
third party and the money in escrow, what a Bank is for. I am even afraid
this is illegal wording in the way you intend it. Whatever the
irrevocability ISOC may sign, ISOC is bound by legal and tax priority
obligations.
Brian,
I don't think "irrevocably assigned to the IETF" works well for money.
In all other cases, money going to support the IETF is called "credited to
the IASA account".
In section 5, section 5.2 and 5.3 talk about money credited to the IASA
account. I'd rather add a section before section 5.5

I actually also have kept that sentence in the principles, namely at principle
5.
It does not read so bad. This is what it sais in my working copy:

While I agree that it is a question for lawyers, I think that "are in
the permanent posession, until it is decided that funds will be spent"
is a better way to put it.

There are already laws about designated/earmarked donations that make
