Indeed it is.

Not likely as the revenues that ICANN receives from GoDaddy are
the most of any registrar.  And the way and manner in which ICANN
burns $$ they need GoDaddy too badly.  Too big to fail, if you will...
Sound/read familiar?

Several.  But the best would be to de-accredit GoDaddy.  A
VERY unlikely action by ICANN.  Next would be to find
a white knight to come in and take over GoDaddy after requiring
the owners and Sr. Executives of GoDaddy to resign immediately
or be dis-accredited.

No, but the new proposed RAA has some provisions dealing with
inter-registrar transfer.  My questions are: what does ICANN propose
to do for all those registrants that have been damaged by GoDaddy's
miss-behavior?  Will ICANN be financially compensating these
registrants adequately, if at all?
