This is also a pretty good summary of my views.  Despite the efforts
of Thomas and other members of the Names Council I have absolutely no
confidence that the Board will adopt any progressive reforms that
weren't planned by the staff anyway.

stated that the culture and history of ICANN means it will never be
able to win the trust of the internet community. However a replacement
body could if not captured by a few insiders.
