Under the member model there is a gap because the same things cannot happen to the member. In the Board’s proposal the ultimate responsibility is the Board’s subject to binding arbitration and court enforcement. In the CCWG model the ultimate responsibility is the member but to whom are they accountable under the mission of ICANN that we must act in the global public interest.
