Jordan, all,
I do not support Jordan’s assessment as copied below at all.
In fact, I consider it to be completely uncalled for, unfounded, offensive and as such far less constructive (or: far more destructive) than any reaction we have received from the board and ICANN staff so far.
This is a fine example of the things that truly frustrate me in this process, not the many and seemingly endless calls at unholy hours.
And, by the way, I do not like being lectured by “experts"
It
should not come as a surprise that ICANN's current structure does not want changes. Nothing is more natural in a change process than for those who see some loss of control or authority to oppose it. It is a very natural human reaction.
