Whilst I am aware how popular the SPIEGEL is, it is not a model of
accuracy in its claims and reporting. Perhaps some hand holding
& reply is needed from ICANN's comms dept.<br>
Kind regards,<br>

guess there is a big difference between lack of transparency
and lack of understanding how ICANN works. But if the German
parliament, after a two year inquiry comes to this
conclusions, there is a long road ahead of us.

<div>I think it would help if the description of
ICANN and its processes made it clear(er) that
the address space is controlled by the RIRs
and that ICANN serves the RIRs in accordance
with their policies.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That might or might not be sufficient to
address the concerns expressed in Germany. If
not, they and others will continue to seek
structural changes to accomplish either the
same thing or to uproot the RIR system
entirely.</div>

An unfortunate mis-interpretation of the
actual reality of IP address management in a
number of ways. This will undoubtedly
provide ammunition to the folks arguing for
ITU management of IP addresses.</div>
