I read your article Phil and shared it with the board. Found it well researched and agree with your arguments. Would be good to sit together in India with folks who have an interest in understanding this topic more.

FYI, yesterday I published a short article on the decision which can be found at
http://www.circleid.com/posts/20160802_court_of_appeals_avoids_doomsday_effect_in_iran_cctld_decision/
In it I state:
In my view, this result avoids the possibility of a major erosion of confidence and participation in ICANN by ccTLD operators by making clear that a
respected Court of Appeals in the U.S. possesses adequate technical understanding of the DNS to avoid a legal decision that could lead to technical and political instability — many nations would not wish to continue in a DNS coordinated by a U.S. non-profit
corporation if it could be ordered by a U.S. court to transfer control of any nation's ccTLD. This decision will also hopefully tamp down calls by some parties for ICANN's place of incorporation to be moved outside of the U.S. by demonstrating that ICANN's
jurisdiction does not create a threat to other nation's ccTLDs. Remaining jurisdiction issues will be addressed in work stream 2 of ICANN's ongoing accountability process.
Best regards to all

For those following along in the effort to attach the .ir (and other) ccTLDs, the appellate court issued an opinion yesterday affirming the decision of the court below rejecting
the effort to attach the domain (albeit on different grounds). Here is a link to the opinion:
