    Not to belabor this much more, and I may be being pedantic...<br>

    It appears to read as if WS1 is about putting in place mechanisms
    that <span lang="EN-US">"provide the community with confidence"</span>
    but not specifically about putting in place accountability
    mechanisms or measures.  There is a big difference between putting
    in in place process mechanisms to provide confidence (as it now
    seems to imply) and putting in place actual accountability
    mechanisms which is what the original definition suggested.  The
    second definition is fine for so long as it explicitly includes the
    first as well.  <br>
    <br>
    It might be better if it read something like:<br>
    <br>
    <b><span lang="EN-US">Work Stream 1</span></b><span lang="EN-US">:
      is focused on mechanisms that 1) enhance ICANN's accountability
      and must be in place or committed to within the time frame of the
      IANA Stewardship Transition</span>, and 2) <span lang="EN-US">that
      provide the community with confidence that any accountability
      measures that would further enhance ICANN's accountability would
      be implemented if it had consensus support from the community,
      even if it were to encounter ICANN management resistance or if it
      were against the interest of ICANN as a corporate entity.</span><br>

                            rather cursory review system at that. We
