But it's interesting that you think that Board members should control staff. Isn't staff management an executive function? Should ICANN have an executive Board?
Hey, I didn't say manage the staff, I said control the staff. Like, say, telling the staff that when they summarize comments, they should summarize what they actually say rather than what the staff wished they said. The lack of control starts at the top, viz a prior president who couldn't be bothered to live on the same continent where he works, and the current one who's building an unneccsary million dollar new headquarters so he can be closer to his friends in Silicon Valley.
