Maybe there should be 5 stages. Add overall plan to the beginning and how to get ICANN to pay attention to it as the last stage.

  Hi Jeff,

  We greatly respect Ted E. and Brandon's leadership efforts to organize a formal recommendation to ICANN. However, we would agree with you that it is unlikely to be productive and are highly skeptical of the outcome. With ICANN for the most part ignoring the recommendations from participants on its own forum / mailing list, what is the likelihood of the BoD paying any attention to an outside influence?

  Once the 3rd stage is completed, what's the plan to get ICANN to respond to the consensus recommendations of the 160 people?

  Sincerely,
  Ted
