<p dir="ltr">Hello Jeff,</p>
<p dir="ltr">The current claim is that board could unilaterally create and impose policy, that aspect of unilaterally creating policies is one of the issues I believe is being handled in this process and also at the GNSO level. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I don&#39;t understand why the word impose(or force) will be inappropriate in a scenario where the community develops policy and then ICANN board ratifies for staff implemention. From my experience in policy development within the numbers community, any ratified policy (unless otherwise stated) is practically imposed on non-legacy resource holders. Not every resource holder likes the implemented policy. </p>
<p dir="ltr">That&#39;s just normal and it will be violation of board&#39;s fiduciary duty to approve a policy that is determined to affect the security and stability of DNS/Internet</p>
<p dir="ltr">That said, you are right that board should respond (as applicable) and my response is solely personal.</p>
