I had some time on my hands early this morning and did a close reading.

There'a typo in Article 3 Section 1.

Seems like it was more about the education program than anything.

I trust NANOG to be less destructive than ICANN and as near as I can tell,

See Article 4.

*The Parties agree to use their own funds or financial resources to fulfill
their respective responsibilities under this MoU*. This MoU shall not cause
any financial obligations on any one of the Parties hereto as a result of
enforcing any of its rights or executing any of its obligations hereunder.

It's a nice letter from ICANN supporting the education program for the most
part.

Warm regards,
