Avri, I want to clarify.

In that approach, the ICANN Board would NOT be in the loop. Does that clarify and answer your concern? B. On Mon, Dec 1, 2014 at 4:57 PM, Avri Doria <avri@acm.org> wrote:

Indeed the PRT does that.
The problem is that if the ICANN internal multistakeholder community says A, the ICANN Board can say Not A, and there is NOTHING we can do about it. Thus there needs to be an external entity that the ICANN stakeholder environment we have created can directly affect without threat of capture by ICANN Corporate.
That is the primary Capture Entity we need to concern ourselves with: ICANN Corporate.
