  First off, ICANN didn't "Take Off" it was created for purposes that
were
deemed necessary by the USG.  I also didn't find that in 1999 that IT
based
corporations were as arrogant as many seem to be in 2004.

 Excellent statement if proven in the future to come to pass.  However
the
jury is still out of that future.  I myself  "Cashed In" on my Google
stock I was
able to get on the initial bidding scheme.

  Well Thomas Rossler was hosting the DNSO.ORG and later the GNSO web
sites for ICANN.  Why the on site archives have been discontinued is
still
a mystery or some significant and perhaps dubious historical and
certainly
possible legal interest in the future...

 What's more interesting concerning the DNSO GA/GNSO is the fact
that under the supposed restructuring of the DNSO by Stuart Lynn and
Company, did away with the GA without the expressed consent or
even Consensus of it's participants/members...
