Hi Avri,
good point. It makes always sense to read older documents in the light of new discussions..

Hi,
While I have expressed my personal belief, as a participant, that is is sufficient to say multistakeholder without the qualifiers at this point in our development and in the development of the multistakeholder model, my role in this group is not only a participant but an expert on ATRT.
In that role I want to point out that the AOC does say;
4. DOC affirms its commitment to a _multi-stakeholder, __private sector led, bottom-up policy_ development model ...
8. ICANN affirms its commitments to: (a) maintain the capacity and ability to coordinate the Internet DNS at the overall level and to work for the maintenance of a single, interoperable Internet; (b) remain a not for profit corporation, headquartered in the United States of America with offices around the world to meet the needs of a global community; and (c)_to operate as a multi-stakeholder, private sector led organization_ with input from the public, for whose benefit ICANN shall in all events act. ICANN is a private organization and nothing in this Affirmation should be construed as control by any one entity.
Note: In pulling these quotes I realized, for the the first time, that while DOC is committed to the bottom-up nature, ICANN does not affirm its commitment to that notion in the AOC.
