Hi folks,

I read with amusement ICANN's latest PR that Michael Salazar had resigned, but 
that Kurt Pritz would be taking on his duties, in addition to his existing ones.

However, pages 58 and 59 of the latest IRS Form 990 (for the period ending June 
30, 2011) *claimed* that both Kurt Pritz and Michael Salazar were already each 
working 60 hours/week:

So, how does ICANN, with a straight face, say to the world that Kurt Pritz will 
now be working 120 hours/week? Or is it possible that ICANN had erred in its 
Form 990, and that the true hours of work are significantly less than 60 
hours/week? 


Maybe ICANN should get Compass Lexecon to do an "economic study" of this issue, 
gratis -- the ICANN community certainly didn't benefit much from the $623,735 
wasted on them in that year.

Sincerely,
