If ICANN paid the rest of the board, like they now pay the chair, the pool of candidates would be much larger.
To be clear, the chair is not paid today. No one on the board is. There is a proposal in the works to change that (see the ICANN web pages), especially for the chair, but the process for making such a change has not yet completed, and it has not been determined when (assuming it happens) it will go into effect and whether it will apply to current board members, etc. Thomas
