Alf, the problem is we *are* the co-owners. The initial by laws have been
tailored for a progressive transfer of the ownership from the USG to the
@large, ie the users. With a lot of warranties and counter powers. This
has been well devised and discussed so the stability of the network would
be protected and even enforced. The constant changes in the by laws
are progressively destabilizing the whole process, and have a direct
impact on the technical issues you quote as you may realize.

If people feel there is neither by laws stability nor sensible organization
at the "net keeper" organization they will hardly be interested in subjects
dependant from that organization's credibility and from the network
harmonious and stable technical development. Restoring the ICANN
and DNSO GA quietness is a prerequisite to discuss all this.

So, I would propose to reverse the order and to start with the DNSO
reviw, so people may be satisfied that the other subjects are based upon
a common understanding of the DNSO's role and target under the present
circumstances. Otherwise, each subject will include that question and
notheing will be achieved.

Just an opinion too.
