This is not intended to be a roadblock. Quite the opposite. But dashing off a sentence and then "see you in Dublin" is not going to work. We need to put some work in now. It shouldn't be that hard and it shouldn't take months, but it also shouldn't be that easy to change the ICANN bylaws either.

I'm willing to put the work in now. It's those who aren't who will delay the process and the result.

We cannot adopt a bylaws change on the basis of "caveat emptor." (A little Latin always elevates a discussion....)

I really don't think using a 500 year old colloquialism "cheapens the discussion." I also find it ironic to find this admonition in a discussion about, inter alia, freedom of expression. Political correctness, trigger words, and other such stuff are a not inconsequential threat to freedom of expression and freedom of ideas -- starting with a kernel of good intentions, and then becoming quite damaging....
