because of that (governance function) and GAC members are not interested to advise a US non-profit. The fact that ICANN is a US non-profit is an anomaly and not its global governance status and is not of primary importance. I agree with PC that law is important
- but only democratic law. US law is made by Americans and as such is an anomaly and is not a democratic law for an international governance body suchas ICANN – this, for me, is the core of the issue for the jurisdiction group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
