Hello

Unless there are unspoken and unseen merits, I have some concerns on some aspects of the summary:

1.  The idea of constraining ICANN to its bylaws figures very prominently in the summary, defined as one of the pillars, not really a supportive pillar, but sort of a not so well thought of negative command, " Don't allow ICANN to exceed its mission"

2.  The standing panel is to be trained by ICANN on DNS technical matters. For argument, wearing a skeptical hat across the table, who in ICANN would train the standing panel? Staff? Board? Community? Which part of the Community? Would it stop with training the panel on DNS? Or, extend to impart notions on what would constitute an acceptable ruling and what would not?

How independent would the IRP be , if the training is provided by ICANN and support is provided by ICANN?
