>> And that, it seems to me, Bruce, is at the nub of the problem.  In theory, the Board has committed to transmitting whatever the CCWG submits, but in reserving the right to negate what has been submitted with its own comments (which would, in effect, kill any proposal) it takes away with the left hand what it gives with the right.  It is, as EL says, now down to who blinks first, it seems.
>> 
>> More to the point however, whenever the Board says the first part ("we will submit whatever we get") without also saying the second part ("but we reserve the right to countermand that submittal with comments") it is misleading.  Many in the community read the "we will submit" as an endorsement of the CCWG process without limitation.  Leaving out the critical limitation makes statements incomplete and adversely effects communication and expectation.  Thus, the Board's promise in Buenos Aires was read as more palliative than it actually is because of its reserved powers.
>> 
>> In addition, when someone (like Senator Thune) asks the question from a practical perspective ("will the board accept") then leaving out the caveat is an omission that affirmatively obscures the reality.
>> 
>> And then, there is the last sadder point:  Which is that the Board's reservation of a right to comment even after it participates in the process and, hypothetically, has the community reject its concerns reflects a distrust of the MSM and a paternalistic attitude that suggests to me all sorts of inadequacies.  If the Board's conclusion is true, then ICANN is not fit for the transition.  If it is false, then the Board misreads the community badly.  Either prospect is daunting
