If it is "under consideration" that "consideration" is not happening at 
the board level.

Apart from the utter elimination of public participation in ICANN, the
thing that most irks me about ICANN's so-called "reform" is that it does
absolutely nothing to redress the fact that in ICANN all the real
decisionmaking is done by "staff", secretly from both the public and the
board; without notes, minutes, or other records; subject to unknown and
unreviewable whims and influences; and perhaps associated with unknown 
quid pro quos.
