  Even in security matters, DOC/NTIA has had a laisse faire attitude as
the recent NIST recommendation clearly shows and the IETF [Good right 
arm of ICANN] was caught off guard on, as the already and now long 
standing security problems still extant with BIND, IpV6, and DNSSEC 
for example... As also with the policy recommendations made by the 
ICANN BC constituency of which some of it's members are engaged in 
funding terrorists, see:
http://www.DivestTerror.org/ and the full report at:
 http://64.46.114.65/divestterror/downloadfullreport.html

 As the president said in a speech some time ago, "Those whom fund
terrorists, are terrorists"...

  I hope your right here.  However I have my doubts...

  Business has no business in setting standards alone.  Without those
that are effected by any standards or proposals of same as equal and 
active participants will almost every time set unacceptable standards, 
and thereby cause unnecessary harm and damage to those effected.  And 
yes, this is why the need for trial lawyers and law suits such as the 
Sex.com case clearly pointed out, are unfortunately needed.
