All
In preparation for our call today, I wanted to share with you the following that I pulled from the hearing that the Senate Commerce Committee held earlier this year:
***
The Chairman: Will the ICANN Board send a proposal to NTIA that lessens the Board’s power or authority?
Mr. Chehade: We will if the community and the stakeholders present us with a proposal. We will give it to NTIA, and we committed already that we will not change the proposal, that if we have views on that proposal, we should participate with the community. Once that proposal comes from our stakeholders, we will pass it on to NTIA as is.
***
I would read this as a commitment from ICANN and the Board.
