[address-policy-wg] WG Charter

Nits:

1.  Should be Internet Number Resources

2. IANA does not exist as an organization.  ICANN performs the IANA
functions under a contract with the US DoC.  There is nothing to
preclude any other organization to perform all or part of this function.
Under the current circumstances that could be either as a subcontractor
to ICANN under the current contract or as a separate contractor to the
US DoC.

Point 2 has some interesting scenarios if looked at in the long run.
