+1 -- If you haven't bothered to be involved, you have lost the right to kvetch… If enough operational folk had bothered to stay involved, ICANN would be more operational. Claiming that it is all driven by money is a cop out. Yes, it's very political, yes there are LOTS of lawyers and policy folk, yes the atmosphere is not fun, yes the registries and registrars are the big players (because they have bothered to play), but technical folk CAN and DO make a difference… Warren "serves on the SSAC" Kumari
