no more coffee and donuts for you! Duane Connelly wrote:

ICANN spends much of it time helping promote the stability of the Internet, promote its growth and even go so far as to go to China to help explain it`s role and expand the Internet as Mr Cerf did recently. This kind of promotion helps large and small registrars, but large registrar sales are much higher due to the funds they can pour into sponsorships.

The last time you had coffee and donuts at a ICANN meeting was probably brought to you by your friendly large registrar , and they had 3-5 people from working the coffee area promoting their products and services.
