Not sure their job would be easier, not the job as they "see" it. So far the entity we call ICANN has not shown they "see" their job as being one that is supposed to be transparent or one that has real stakeholder involvement.

  Allowing ICANN to become an internationl organization is a bad idea.

  As was well pointed  out in PC World;

  "Also, the U.S. is unlikely to agree to such a change, which would essentially shield ICANN from any liability or judicial supervision," he wrote. (referring to Froomkin -Icannwatch)

  But the title of the article at; http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,130476/article.html
  Reads "ICANN may go private". It might just be me, but, a corporation which exists without stakeholder membership is private. The headline we should be reading is: "ICANN will go public".

  Moving further into isolation from accountabiliy and responsibility is the wrong direction.
  ICANNs job would be so much easier if the were more open and transparent and inclusive.

  I guess an individuals place in all this is to bring as much visibility and hopefully participation as personally possible.
