Agreed here Roberto. However I also do not think as it seems Dave
and the ICANN BoD purport that the decision is between just two
choices. Rather I believe, as I think others do as well, that modifications
to the proposed contract with Verisign can be suggested by the GA.
Ergo, and "New" version of the proposed Verisign contract could be
arrived at by the GA as a recommendation to the ICANN BoD. Although
the ICANN BoD may wish to avoid this entirely....

I don't see why. It seems to me that the ICANN BoD could impose
upon Verisign that an additional block of time is needed by the DNSO to
properly and adequately review this proposed contract.

It can, but it should not be held to the time frame now given...
