ICANN Board member Mike Palage, in his Registry
Failure White Paper writes:

"One of the important aspects to be considered in connection with a gTLD registry failure is in the impact on Internet stakeholders, most importantly domain name registrants

It is very ironic that ICANN makes such a statement while ICANN continues to exclude those very same domain name registrants from the making of decisions within ICANN.


There's a strong scent of King Leopold saying that Belgium was really acting in the best interests of the people of the Congo basin and that they should have faith in his paternalist judgements.
