The allocation of the seats on this committee is done, not much point in complaining about it now. In any event, we have much bigger fish to fry. Here's a few to start with: * The board's frequent failure to do what the bylaws require them to do, e.g., reconsideration, .XXX. ... * An institutional lack of compliance. Every clause in every contract that ICANN has with registrars and registries needs to be monitored and enforced. The failure to implement registrar data escrow for ten years, until the Registerfly fiasco made it too embarassing to ignore, is the most obvious example, but it's a chronic problem. * The so-called Ombudsman (Ed Hasbrouck is right, the board has never properly appointed him) is simultaneously ineffective and out of control.
